Magnesium Glycinate

9 out of 10 consumers reported sleeping better and feeling calmer in stressful moments after supplementing with Thorne Magnesium Glycinate, based on a 28-day consumer perception study of 95 participants. Magnesium plays a critical role in promoting muscle relaxation and maintaining a healthy nervous system – both of which are essential for restful, restorative sleep.*

Beyond sleep, magnesium is fundamental to whole-body health. It’s involved in more than 600 enzymatic reactions in the body, influencing everything from energy production and sugar metabolism to cardiovascular and neuromuscular function.* 

But according to World Health Organization statistics, as many as 75% of U.S. adults do not meet the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's recommended daily intake of 420 mg of magnesium. Magnesium deficiency can manifest in many ways, such as inefficient blood sugar metabolism, muscle cramps or soreness, eyelid twitching, fatigue, and poor sleep.

Why is magnesium important?  

Magnesium, in all its forms, promotes energy production, protein synthesis, and DNA formation. It plays a key role in supporting muscle and nerve function, helping regulate muscle contractions and maintain a steady heartbeat. Magnesium also contributes to bone health and helps manage stress by supporting a healthy nervous system.
