Magnesium Bisglycinate , also known as magnesium glycinate or magnesium diglycinate, is the magnesium salt of glycine (one magnesium and two glycine molecules). It is one magnesium atom attached to two glycine molecules. “Bis” means 2, referring to the 2 glycine molecules, so we prefer to use the name bisglycinate for clarity.

Magnesium Bisglycinate Applications
Food grade Magnesium Bisglycinate is a dietary supplement. Magnesium is a vital nutrient for regulating many body processes, including muscle and nerve function, blood sugar levels, and blood pressure. This mineral also supports the making of protein, bone, and DNA. People with a magnesium deficiency may benefit from magnesium glycinate, a supplement that increases magnesium levels.
It is also often “buffered” with magnesium oxide but it is also available in its pure non-buffered magnesium glycinate form.
