- Magnesium Bisglycinate, L-Threonate, or Malate
Magnesium stabilizes the ATP molecule, regulates ion channels, and acts as a natural calcium channel blocker to relax muscles. Magnesium Bisglycinate (magnesium bound to the amino acid glycine) is a highly bioavailable chelate that utilizes dipeptide transport channels in the gut, effectively avoiding the osmotic diarrhea common with magnesium oxide or citrate.
