Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Best suggestion is to take with water because it is very powdery. Amino acid works synergistically with the magnesium. Wish they would make them in capsule form or something easier to *.

Each bottle contains 180 uncoated tablets. Each tablet has 200mg of magnesium (as magnesium glycinate chelate) around 1x0. Large, oval tablet.



Cons

The seller advertises carlson labs chelated magnesium as using magnesium glycinate chelate as it's only magnesium source. All chelates are not equal. The form of magnesium which is best assimilated is chelated magnesium such as this.

It's a shame they have now stooped to dumbing down the formula to one containing cheap, worthless ingredients. Shame on carlson for this obvious form of deceptive advertising.

    All magnesium is not created equal


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If youre taking magnesium supplements for their health benefits you are much better served by taking a chelated form rather than simple and cheaper magnesium oxide


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Chelation in this context simply means that the magnesium has been combined with the amino acid glycine


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its complicated but the simplest explanation is that the amino acid works synergistically with the magnesium to enhance the minerals absorption into your bodys cells


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It took me a couple of weeks to trace the source of the problem but sure enough the other company had changed their formula

    So im back to carlson to stay
