Description
Magnesium is an essential mineral that assists in over 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It is the second most abundant mineral inside cells, where it also participates in converting food (especially carbohydrates) to energy. Over 60 percent of the body’s magnesium is stored in the skeleton, and the remaining portion is primarily housed in the muscles. It is crucial for energy production, bone and muscle health, physical strength and mobility, neurological health, and metabolism.
The amino acid glycine has a calming effect on nerves. Key clinical uses for this bisglycinate (two glycine molecules) form of magnesium are insomnia, restless legs, anxiety, and muscle spasms.
