Vitals Magnesium Bisglycinate 100 mg
Vitals Magnesium Bisglycinate 100 mg
This product contains magnesium in the form of magnesium bisglycinate. Each magnesium particle is strongly bound (chelated) to two (bis) molecules of the amino acid glycine. The general term for such a compound is amino acid chelate or amino acid chelated mineral. The word "chelate" comes from the Greek and means "claw."
Magnesium is one of the most commonly used minerals in complementary practices. One reason for this is that magnesium plays a crucial role in over 300 physiological processes in the body. Furthermore, due to current diets (with relatively few magnesium-rich foods like green vegetables and nuts), it's likely that not everyone gets enough magnesium. This mineral should therefore be considered a basic supplement. However, it's crucial to be aware of the quality differences between magnesium products and to know how to make the right choice.
Organic and inorganic
Various magnesium compounds are used in supplements. An important distinction to make is whether it is an organic or inorganic mineral compound. Inorganic mineral compounds (those found in the soil and absorbed by plants, such as magnesium oxide and magnesium carbonate) generally have low bioavailability compared to organically bound mineral compounds such as gluconates, citrates, and amino acid chelated minerals.
Benefits of Amino Acid Chelated Minerals
The chelate structure in an amino acid chelate like magnesium bisglycinate is strong enough not to be broken down by gastric juice or digestive enzymes (as is typically the case with other mineral compounds), but also weak enough to allow the mineral to be released once absorbed by the intestinal cells. The amino acids wrap around the mineral, protecting it during the digestive process and preventing it from detaching. The chelate's electrical charge is also neutral, preventing it from adhering to food particles in the stomach and intestines. The amino acid chelate thus reaches the small intestine intact, where it is absorbed as a dipeptide (a compound containing two amino acids). This is very advantageous because the body can absorb amino acids (and dipeptides in particular) very easily, especially if they consist of the smallest amino acid, glycine. This makes amino acid chelated minerals much more absorbable than other mineral forms. In the epithelial tissue of the jejunum (middle portion of the small intestine), the amino acid-chelated mineral is delivered to the mucous cells by active transport, without competing with other minerals. Only in the mucous cells do metabolic processes ensure that the glycine and the mineral are split and become available to the various organs and systems in the body.
Amino acid chelates from Albion Minerals
Vitals uses only genuine amino acid chelates from Albion Minerals, the leading expert in amino acid chelates, recognizable by the trademark TRAACS®, which stands for The Real Amino Acid Chelate System. This brand was created to clearly differentiate itself from other, potentially inferior, unstable amino acid chelates. Albion has filed over 100 patents worldwide that guarantee the process, science, and structure of their amino acid chelated minerals. Furthermore, research is conducted on their minerals, and quality assurance is performed on every batch produced. It is essential to verify that chelation has actually occurred and that the bonds are strong enough.
Studies with magnesium bisglycinate
Several studies have confirmed the effectiveness of magnesium bisglycinate. Some of these compared the absorption of magnesium bisglycinate with various magnesium compounds, such as magnesium carbonate, magnesium sulfate, and magnesium oxide. Magnesium bisglycinate was absorbed significantly faster and better than the other forms of magnesium. Magnesium oxide performed by far the worst.
Taurine
This product also contains 200 mg of taurine. This is an amino acid-like substance found naturally in meat, fish, and shellfish. It has a direct synergistic effect with magnesium by promoting its absorption into cells (magnesium is primarily active intracellularly).
