Question 1

Per cap, this has 150mg of elem. mag. Other brands have 200mg of elem./cap, so only 2 caps are needed. Does % concentration matter or just final mgs?

Accepted Answer

Hi Dave, thanks for the question! :)

The percentage of concentration really does matter in this case. There are a lot of games brands will play around the total mg of elemental magnesium per capsule - for instance conflating "amount of magnesium glycinate" with "amount of elemental magnesium" - and many people don't realize that these are not the same things!

While there may be other brands that claim to have a higher level of elemental magnesium per capsule in their product, we haven't come across any ourselves that can back it up with a CoA and 3rd party testing reports. Be careful out there and always make sure to verify! :)

Hope this helps and please don't hesitate to reach out and let us know if you have any additional questions!

Question 2

How many MG is it chleated?

Accepted Answer

Hi there, thanks for your question! :)

Our Magnesium Glycinate formula is fully chelated, meaning it is in a form that is easily absorbed by the body. One serving gives you 3,000 mg of magnesium glycinate, equaling 600mg of pure elemental magnesium.

Hope this helps and please don't hesitate to reach out and let us know if you have any additional questions! :)

Question 3

Is the rda number the amount of mg the body needs to absorb? if so, how much of your 600mg is absorbed?

Accepted Answer

The recommended daily intake is 400–420 mg per day for men and 310–320 mg per day for women . At 6 h, the Mg2+ absorption is approximately 80% complete . Intestinal Mg2+ absorption and influencing factors. With a daily intake of 370 mg, the absorption rate of Mg2+ in the intestine ranges from 30-50% . However, the efficiency of Mg2+ uptake is dependent on the ingested dose .

Question 4

Is this a fully reacted chleate, blended chleate or buffered chelate?

Accepted Answer

Chelated is a positive step to look for when choosing a good product since it effects absorption. But buffered, usually means the medication is being mixed with cheaper ingredients to "fill up the capsules".  For ex: magnesium Glyinate can be buffered with Magnesium Oxide and Mag Citrate. I seen where product was chelated but was unaware it was also buffered.

What exactly is this Magnesium Glyinate buffered with?
