Jamieson’s Magnesium Bisglycinate is 100% pure magnesium bisglycinate, providing a highly bioavailable form, that is easy for the body to absorb; supporting bone health and muscle function.
What is MagnesiumBisglycinate?
Magnesium is an essential mineral that the human body requires for over 600 enzyme reactions. Humans require magnesium to be healthy, supporting muscles, bones, and nerves in proper function.
This formula contains magnesium in a pure bisglycinate form, which has a higher bioavailability than other forms of magnesium and fewer adverse gastrointestinal side effects.
Research on Magnesium certain medications like antacids, H2 blockers and diuretics can reduce magnesium levels. “Loop diuretics directly inhibit magnesium reabsorption in
the kidney. Conversely, thiazides induce magnesium excretion indirectly through multiple mechanisms.”
Women on birth control medications tend to have lower levels of magnesium, that may affect the calcium/magnesium ratio in the body which influences blood clotting.
Demand for Magnesium According to Statistics Canada, more than 34% of
Canadians consumed magnesium in quantities below the Health Canada estimated average requirements.
