Magnesium Chelate

Why Choose Magnesium Chelate?

What is Magnesium Chelate used for? Magnesium is a mineral that is essential to human health and plays a central role in many of the body’s functions including that of the heart, bones, muscles, and nervous system. Magnesium is present in a variety of foods, but unfortunately, because of conventional farming practices (among other reasons), the quantity of magnesium in food today has drastically diminished. As a result, a high percentage of the population is deficient in this important mineral. Read more >

Magnesium Chelate

Magnesium is a mineral that is essential to human health and plays a central role in many of the body’s functions including that of the heart, bones, muscles, and nervous system. Magnesium is present in a variety of foods, but unfortunately, because of conventional farming practices (among other reasons), the quantity of magnesium in food today has drastically diminished. As a result, a high percentage of the population is deficient in this important mineral. Taking a magnesium supplement is a great way to make up for any potential nutritional gaps, but it’s important to know that not all magnesium supplements are created equal. Let's take a further look at chelated magnesium.

Benefits of Magnesium Chelate

All magnesium supplements contain magnesium (what is labeled as "elemental magnesium”) plus another carrier molecule. Chelated minerals are inorganic minerals that have been chemically bound to other organic substances such as amino acids (protein) that function as carrier molecules. The term “chelate” refers to how the elemental mineral binds to the other molecule. Chelated magnesium contains elemental magnesium which is bound to a carrier by two or more points of attachment. Non-chelated magnesium contains elemental magnesium bound to a carrier by only one point of attachment. The chelated form often considered the “everyday form” of magnesium, offers better stability than non-chelated forms because:

  • It allows the compound to bypass the harsh digestive tract environment, which enhances nutrient uptake.
  • It allows for better transport of minerals across the intestinal wall.

Who Needs Magnesium Chelate?

Chelated magnesium is easy to produce, so makes for an affordable supplement and constitutes an enhanced form of the mineral. It’s a great way to increase your intake of bioavailable magnesium, as well as effective to remedy magnesium deficiency.

Chelated magnesium supplements supply less magnesium by weight, but you do profit from the therapeutic/nutritional properties that the other molecules offer, which multiplies the benefits to health. protein chelates offer especially robust support to nerve and muscle function, via the presence of amino acids.

Magnesium Chelate Potency, & Formats

Potency

Magnesium chelate, like other forms of this mineral, is typically offered in 120 - 125 mg potency, and the general recommended daily dose for adults is in the 250 to 420 mg range.

Therapeutic doses will vary depending on your needs and are typically in the 125–2,500 mg range. Because magnesium chelate offers better absorption and bioavailability, you may need to take less than other forms.

Formats

This form comes in either capsule, tablet, liquid, or powder form, as well in a variety of powdered blends for the support of proper nerve and muscle function, as well as for sleep support. It is also offered in convenient chewable tablet form.

Getting The Most Out of Your Supplement

It’s always best to take your magnesium chelate close to mealtime to avoid any potential stomach upset (though chelates typically have less potential to upset the stomach).

Magnesium can be paired with vitamins such as B6 (pyridoxine) to enhance the absorption of magnesium. Taurine, an amino acid, is another common pairing and is ideal for athletes and gym goers because it helps improves energy levels and muscle health, as well as helps recover from post-exercise stress; it’s also great for the maintenance of cardiovascular health.
