MINERAL

The one with the evidence.

01

The brief

Minerals before miracles. Most of this shelf is a bet of some kind — this one is arithmetic. Magnesium has approved claims behind it and they are not vague, and most diets fall short of it whether or not you train.

02

Why

After a run of products where the honest answer was that the evidence is thin, this is the opposite: magnesium has approved claims and they are not vague — normal muscle function, reduction of tiredness and fatigue, normal nervous system function, normal protein synthesis. 275 mg elemental from 2,500 mg of glycinate, the form chosen for tolerance. Some foundations are boring because they are foundations.

03

What it actually does

Three capsules daily giving 275 mg of elemental magnesium as glycinate, for normal muscle function and the reduction of tiredness.

How to use it

Daily

Three capsules once daily, with or without food. Loose stools mean the dose is too high for you — drop to two. Take it at least two hours apart from any antibiotic or bisphosphonate.

The long version

The least online supplement we sell. While the industry invents a new molecule every fiscal quarter, magnesium has spent seventy years quietly holding authorised claims — normal muscle function, reduction of tiredness and fatigue, normal nervous-system function, normal protein synthesis. Paperwork, filed. No podcast required.

MINERAL is three capsules daily: 275 mg of elemental magnesium from 2,500 mg of glycinate — the form chosen because oxide is cheap and hard on the stomach, which is why most cheap magnesium retires to a drawer.

Most diets run short of it, and training widens the gap — so the least glamorous bottle on this shelf is also the one doing the most predictable work.

Practicalities: 275 mg sits above the usual 250 mg supplemental ceiling, so loose stools mean drop to two. The "sleep magnesium" reputation outruns its sleep evidence — judge it on the tiredness. Two hours away from antibiotics and bisphosphonates; avoid with kidney disease.

Ninety capsules, thirty days. Fundamentals never trend. Take them anyway.

Q&A

Is 275 mg the glycinate weight or actual magnesium?

Elemental — the real number. It takes 2,500 mg of magnesium glycinate to deliver 275 mg of magnesium, and we publish the elemental figure because that's the one that matters.

What if it loosens my stomach?

That's the dose talking: 275 mg sits above the usual 250 mg ceiling, so if stools loosen, take two capsules instead of three. Glycinate is the gentler form, which is why it's here — but the rule still holds.

Can I take it with medications?

Space it: magnesium binds antibiotics and bisphosphonates, so keep a two-hour gap either side of those. Anything else, ask the pharmacist who knows your list.

Glycinate, citrate, threonate — why this form?

Glycinate is the gentle, well-absorbed workhorse — the form people switch to after citrate sends them running. Threonate is the expensive brain-marketing lane; citrate the budget one. For a daily elemental dose you'll actually keep taking, glycinate wins.

Does it clash with thyroid medication?

Space any mineral away from levothyroxine by around four hours — magnesium can blunt its absorption. Same family of rule as the antibiotic spacing on the label; your pharmacist can set your exact schedule.

Where is it made?

In the USA — the manufacturer's country of record for this product. (No supplement anywhere is 'FDA-approved'; the oversight lives at the facility level, and that's where this one is made.)

08

Safety and warnings

Not for anyone under 18, pregnant or nursing. Speak to a doctor before use if you have kidney disease — impaired kidneys cannot clear excess magnesium. Separate it by at least two hours from tetracycline or quinolone antibiotics and from bisphosphonates, as magnesium reduces their absorption. At 275 mg this is above the usual 250 mg daily ceiling for supplemental magnesium; loose stools are the sign to take less. Do not stack with another magnesium supplement without adding up the total.
