Composition and form of magnesium
The main active ingredient is magnesium glycinate: a form in which the mineral is combined with the amino acid glycine. Each serving (1/2 tablespoon, approximately 256 g for the entire bottle) is designed to be diluted in 240 ml of liquid.
Additional ingredients: citric acid, natural cherry flavor with other natural flavors, stevia (leaf extract), silicon dioxide. Sweetened with stevia - no sugar and no artificial sweeteners.
The product is certified vegan, gluten-free, soy-free, and GMO-free. KAL has been producing dietary supplements since 1932.
How is glycinate different from other forms of magnesium?
The dietary supplement market offers various forms of magnesium: oxide, citrate, bisglycinate, magnesium with vitamin B6 (magnesium B6), orotate, etc. The forms differ in chemical structure and may be tolerated differently by different people.
Glycinate (also known as bisglycinate) is a chelated form where each magnesium ion is bound to two glycine molecules. Magnesium citrate is a salt of citric acid, popular due to its wide availability. Magnesium B6 is a combination format where pyridoxine is added to support absorption. All of these forms are sources of magnesium in the daily diet; the specific choice depends on individual needs and tolerance.
Why is magnesium in the daily diet?
Magnesium is a key mineral involved in hundreds of enzymatic reactions in the body and is often included in the diet to support the nervous system, muscle tone, and overall well-being.
Calcium activates muscle fibers, and magnesium is a mineral that helps them relax after contraction. That is why magnesium glycinate is often chosen in the evening or after physical exertion. The CALMING formula from KAL is positioned as supporting calm balance and a feeling of relaxation.
How to take magnesium glycinate powder?
The manufacturer recommends dissolving 1/2 tablespoon of powder in approximately 8 ounces (240 ml) of water, juice, smoothie, or other beverage of choice. Strictly follow the dosage instructions on the package.
The powder format is convenient because the dose is easy to adapt, and the cherry and stevia flavors make it more pleasant to take compared to neutral capsules. A 256 g bottle is designed for a certain number of servings depending on the volume of one scoop.
Who is this format suitable for?
Cherry-flavored magnesium glycinate powder is an option for those who prefer liquid or soluble forms of supplements instead of capsules and tablets. Suitable for vegans and those following a gluten-free diet.
It is not recommended to exceed the daily dose without consulting a doctor. This is a dietary supplement, not a medicine - it does not replace a balanced diet and medical care.
