Overview

Solgar Chelated Magnesium provides 400mg of elemental magnesium per 4-tablet serving as magnesium bisglycinate chelate. The chelated form means the magnesium is bound to glycine amino acid, which enhances absorption and reduces the laxative effect common with magnesium oxide or citrate. Solgar has been manufacturing premium supplements since 1947, and their chelated magnesium is one of their best-selling products with 10,000+ reviews. The 250-tablet count provides over 2 months of daily supplementation at the full 400mg dose.
