60% of Americans Don’t Get Enough Magnesium
Oh-MG! Life Extension Debuts Magnesium Glycinate Formula
Avocados. Bananas. Dark chocolate. Some of nature's most delicious foods are good sources of magnesium. Yet a study published in Nutrients found that 60% of Americans don't get enough of this "mighty mineral," which is involved in more than 300 biochemical reactions necessary for overall health and well-being, including heart health, bone density, and nerve and muscle function.
This isn't just because of diet, either (if you're thinking to yourself, "I eat bananas every day!"). Soil degradation can impact how much magnesium we get from food alone.
That's why wellness enthusiasts turn to dietary supplements as a proactive way to augment dietary magnesium intake. And there's a type of magnesium that's turning heads: cue in magnesium glycinate. The global market for this special form of magnesium may reach $2.8 billion by 2032.*

Magnesium glycinate: a well-absorbed duo
What's all the buzz about magnesium glycinate? It's because it's a form of magnesium that's easy for the body to absorb. The secret is behind its chemical structure. Let's get a little "sciencey."
When you combine magnesium with two glycine amino acids, it forms a magnesium-glycine complex that results in an absorbable form of magnesium your body can use effectively.
Our Magnesium Glycinate formula delivers 1,000 mg (105 mg elemental magnesium) of this well-absorbed form of magnesium, providing an excellent source of magnesium for head-to-toe wellness.
Which form of magnesium is best for you?
Magnesium Glycinate takes its place in Life Extension's lineup alongside flagship products like prolonged-absorption Extend-Release Magnesium, cognitive health champion Neuro-Mag® Magnesium L-Threonate, and mood-boosting Calm-Mag.
Whichever form you choose, these products make it easy to get the magnesium your body needs…even if you don't eat avocado toast every day!
