HealthAid Magnesium Bisglycinate 375mg Tablets provide a highly absorbable form of magnesium, combined with vitamin B6 to support normal muscle and nervous system function, energy-yielding metabolism, and reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Suitable for vegans, gluten-free, and dairy-free.
What is HealthAid Magnesium Bisglycinate 375mg?
HealthAid Magnesium Bisglycinate 375mg Tablets contain magnesium bound to the amino acid glycine, forming magnesium bisglycinate, a form known for its enhanced absorption and gentle action on the stomach. This formulation is paired with vitamin B6 to further support magnesium utilisation and overall metabolic function.
Magnesium is an essential mineral involved in hundreds of enzymatic reactions in the body. It contributes to normal muscle function, nervous system function, psychological function, electrolyte balance, and maintenance of normal bones and teeth. In addition, magnesium and vitamin B6 both play a role in reducing tiredness and fatigue and supporting normal energy-yielding metabolism.
Because magnesium supports muscle relaxation and nervous system balance, it may also help promote restful and rejuvenating sleep as part of a healthy lifestyle.
