Magnesium is one of the most vital minerals in the human body, participating in over 300 biochemical reactions that influence everything from muscle function to mental clarity. Despite its importance, magnesium deficiency is surprisingly common, affecting up to 50% of people in the U.S. (Rosanoff et al., 2012).
At Tampugreen, we’ve chosen Magnesium Bisglycinate 200 mg for its exceptional bioavailability and gentle effect on the stomach — offering the most effective and comfortable way to support your daily magnesium needs.
What Is Magnesium Bisglycinate?
Magnesium bisglycinate is a form of chelated magnesium, where the magnesium molecule is bound to two glycine amino acids. This structure offers significant advantages over other forms like magnesium oxide or citrate:
- Higher Absorption: Glycine facilitates absorption through the small intestine.
- Gentle on the Stomach: Unlike magnesium citrate, it doesn't cause loose stools.
- Calming Effect: Glycine also has a mild calming effect on the brain.
This makes it ideal for people seeking both physical and mental health benefits — without digestive discomfort.
Top 6 Science-Backed Benefits of Magnesium Bisglycinate
- 🧠 Reduces Stress and Supports Mood Balance
Magnesium plays a key role in regulating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which controls stress response. Several studies show that low magnesium levels are associated with anxiety and depression (Eby & Eby, 2006). Supplementation with magnesium bisglycinate may help reduce symptoms of anxiety and promote calmness.
- 💤 Improves Sleep Quality
Because glycine promotes relaxation and magnesium supports melatonin regulation, this form is ideal for improving sleep quality. Clinical trials have shown improvements in sleep onset and depth in people with insomnia after magnesium supplementation (Abbasi et al., 2012).
- 💪 Supports Muscle Recovery and Prevents Cramps
Magnesium is essential for muscle contraction and relaxation. Athletes and active individuals often supplement with magnesium bisglycinate to reduce cramping, accelerate muscle recovery, and prevent fatigue.
- ❤️ Supports Cardiovascular Health
Magnesium helps maintain healthy blood pressure and supports vascular tone. A study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that magnesium intake is inversely related to hypertension and stroke risk (Del Gobbo et al., 2013).
- 🦴 Strengthens Bones and Enhances Calcium Absorption
Magnesium works in tandem with calcium and vitamin D to support bone density and prevent osteoporosis. Without adequate magnesium, calcium cannot be properly absorbed (Rude et al., 2006).
- 🧬 Promotes Healthy Blood Sugar and Insulin Sensitivity
Magnesium is involved in insulin signaling and glucose metabolism. Supplementation has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes (Guerrero-Romero & Rodríguez-Morán, 2009).
Who Can Benefit From Magnesium Bisglycinate?
This supplement is ideal for:
- Adults under chronic stress
- Athletes or active individuals
