The body's own muscle relaxant - conditions such as chronic pain, fibromyalgia, neuropathies, spasms, migraines, restless leg syndrome, chronic constipation, and insomnia can often be traced to magnesium magnesium deficiency.

General Product Information:
Trusted and time tested since 2002. Pure Lab's original time tested formulation and potency that consumers have trusted since 2002 is now in a smaller, easy to swallow capsule. It is also excipient free. For over two decades, Pure Lab's original Magnesium Glycinate 165 mg formulation has been Canada's go to for highly absorbable, bowel friendly magnesium support. With a track record of excellence since 2002, this trusted formula balances strength and gentleness, supporting everything from muscle recovery and stress management to better sleep and pain relief. Magnesium is present in foods, like nuts, greens, and whole grains - yet at least 80% of North Americans are deficient. Considering hectic lifestyles, dependence upon fast foods, nut allergies, and chronic health conditions, it is no wonder that society is falling short on the recommended daily intake of about 450 milligrams per day of this mineral. Magnesium is required for energy production, protein synthesis, heartbeat regulation, muscle function, nerve conduction and blood sugar metabolism. Vital for activation of nerves and movement of muscles, it influences blood pressure, sleep, pain, and relaxation. Like with any nutrient, your individual needs vary according to health condition and stress level. Supplementation can provide a safe, convenient, and effective way to meet these needs. You've probably seen a wide array of natural health products that contain magnesium, but they aren't all equal in their health benefits. Reports of unwanted side effects like bloating, gas, and loose stool with the use of pure magnesium oxide supplements are common. This is because only a small amount of the magnesium from magnesium oxide is absorbed from the gut into the blood, and the unabsorbed portion is left in the bowel - whether you need it or not - causing loose stools. To be clear, magnesium oxide is not necessarily 'bad' magnesium. It has the ability to replenish the body's supply, at higher doses - and it will also be an effective natural laxative. However, for some people, 'side benefits' like this are undesired, and viewed more like 'side effects'. With this in mind, it becomes obvious that Pure Lab's Magnesium Glycinate is a better option. Each magnesium atom within magnesium glycinate is bound to two molecules of L-glycine to aid its absorption. Pure Lab's formula is a unique formulation that combines a special ratio of reacted magnesium glycinate with a magnesium oxide-glycine dry chelate blend. It is this combination of features that dramatically improves the absorption of Pure Lab's magnesium compared to straight magnesium oxide. Why glycine? L-glycine is the smallest amino acid and is essential to human health. It has a relaxing effect on the nervous system, and it has anti-inflammatory properties too. It is also one of the three building blocks of glutathione, making magnesium glycinate a great choice for supporting a variety of nervous system afflictions, including chronic pain and immune support.
