Magnesium is a mineral involved in over 300 biochemical processes in the body. One of its most important functions is that it plays a key role in energy production and maintaining muscle, heart, and nerve function. Unfortunately, most people do not have the levels required for optimal health, with studies suggesting that 50 to 90% of people are magnesium deficient. Muscle stiffness, chronic irritability, and fatigue are common signs of deficiency.
Glycine is a calming amino acid and is bound to magnesium in magnesium glycinate. The latter compound is easily absorbed and does not have a laxative effect like some forms of magnesium. Thanks to the calming and relaxing effects of glycine and magnesium, this combination has been successfully used to relieve chronic pain and muscle tension, as well as improve sleep quality.
