Full product details & resources

Magnesium is available in different forms, but not all of them are absorbable! NutriChem's Mega Mag contains magnesium glycinate which is proven to be readily absorbed.

Mega Mag helps to maintain proper muscle function. Magnesium is an abundant mineral in the human body with several essential functions. In co-operation with calcium, magnesium is needed for bone heal, muscle contraction and relaxation, nerve impulse transmission, blood pressure and heart function. In addition, it is utilized in hundreds of enzymes which serve to initiate chemical reactions. Taking magnesium glycinate is one of the most efficient ways to ensure these metabolic needs are met.

NutriChem’s Mega Mag Magnesium Glycinate supplement has a gentle effect on the bowel, while maximizing absorption through the intestinal walls into other body tissues. Chelating (attaching) glycine to this mineral improves absorption through the intestinal walls. Other forms of magnesium, such as chlorides, sulfates and citrates tend to loosen the bowel. This may not be a desirable effect of supplementation.

Excellent for mood, sleep, and digestion!

I’ve been taking these daily for several years. They improve my mood, help me sleep, and help ‘move things along’ in my digestive track.
