Description
Magnesium Bisglycinate | 120 capsules
Vital Molecules Magnesium Bisglycinate contains 625 mg of pure magnesium bisglycinate in chelated form, or 75 mg of elemental magnesium per capsule. 12% magnesium by capsule content is a guarantee that the product contains magnesium bisglycinate and not a mixture of magnesium oxide and the amino acid glycine.
Real magnesium glycinate is obtained by a special process in which two glycine molecules are attached to one magnesium atom and form a stable chelate ring. Chelate is bulky, so a small “00” capsule only holds 625 mg of magnesium bisglycinate, or 75 mg of elemental magnesium. If a capsule contains 20% or more elemental magnesium by weight, you can be 100% sure that it is a mixture of cheap magnesium oxide and the amino acid glycine, not chelated magnesium.
Quality over quantity: What is your body actually getting?
Magnesium chelated with the amino acid glycine is not broken down by stomach acid, so it gets where it needs to go – to the muscles, heart, and nervous system. Here’s why just one capsule of Vital Molecules Magnesium Bisglycinate provides the body with more magnesium than other popular forms:
| Magnesium Form | Declared Quantity | Average Absorption | Really usable |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vital Molecules Bisglycinate | 75 mg | ~80% | ~60 mg |
| Magnesium Citrate | 200 mg | ~25-30% | ~50-60 mg |
| Magnesium Oxide / Hydroxide | 375 mg | ~4% | ~15 mg |

While some forms offer more milligrams of magnesium per capsule, “bioavailability” is key. Citrate has solid absorption, but can cause a laxative effect, while Bisglycinate offers maximum utilization without intestinal irritation.
How Different Forms of Magnesium Work and What They Are Best For:
| Form of Magnesium | Absorption (Bioavailability) | Effect on digestion | Main purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| Magnesium Bisglycinate (Vital Molecules) | Very high (true chelated form) | Excellent tolerance (no laxative effect) | Relaxation, sleep, muscle recovery, stress |
| Magnesium Citrate | High | Can act as a laxative in larger doses | For constipation (constipation), general supplement |
| Magnesium Oxide | Very low (about 4%) | Common laxative effect and bloating | For heartburn (antacid), as a cheap filler |
| Magnesium Hydroxide | Low | Strong laxative effect | Short-term relief of digestive blockages |
Magnesium and glycine synergy: more than the sum of their individual effects
Magnesium and glycine act complementary, creating a stable chelate with high bioavailability and excellent tolerability. Magnesium contributes to the normal function of the muscles and nervous system, while glycine additionally supports calmness and physiological balance. Together, they enable efficient magnesium intake without gastrointestinal upset, making magnesium bisglycinate an optimal choice for daily, long-term supplementation.
Magnesium bisglycinate has a calming effect, helping to reduce stress, anxiety, and insomnia, so it is best taken 30-60 minutes before bedtime. Magnesium glycinate is excellent for reducing muscle cramps and pain, is well tolerated by the body, and does not cause digestive upset.

Real magnesium bisglycinate is voluminous and it is not possible to “squeeze” much more than 625 mg of magnesium bisglycinate (75 mg of elemental magnesium) into one small capsule, and that is why the recommended daily dose is 3-4 capsules.
