We specially chelate our magnesium with natural amino acids, which makes our products water soluble and therefore easier for the body to absorb.* In fact, our chelated magnesium is so effective, your body absorbs it six times faster than other forms of magnesium.* Gentle on tummies, magnesium lysinate glycinate chelate does not cause gastric distress unlike other magnesium varieties.*
Take two capsules twice daily. Consult your healthcare provider before use if you are taking any prescription medications, pregnant, breastfeeding or if you have a medical condition.

Taking too much High Absorption Magnesium could cause GI discomfort.
There is 100 mg elemental Magnesium, which is chelated (bound) to two amino acids: Glycine and Lysine.This product has a much higher absorption and cellular utilization than nonchelated forms of magnesium.
Magnesium is an essential nutrient used by at least 300 enzymes. The magnesium in Doctor's Best Brain Magnesium is magnesium threonate and it was shown to effectively deliver magnesium to the brain. The magnesum in High Absorption Magnesium is magnesium glycinate which was shown to be effective for whole-body support.
Croscarmellose sodium is a commonly used excipient in tablets. It is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as a "disintegrant," which means it helps tablets break apart in the stomach. In simple terms, croscarmellose sodium is made of cellulose gum with a very small amount of sodium. The sodium content is less than a half a percent (less than 0.5%).
Cellulose is a non-digestible fiber, which means the tiny amount in tablets passes through the gut without being broken down or absorbed. As far as adding to anyone's dietary sodium intake, the amount is too small to be of any consequence (Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients, 2nd Ed. American Pharmaceutical Assoc).
This product is not buffered, which means that no additional elemental magnesium is added to increase the elemental value. It is a common practice in the industry to buffer magnesium with poorly absorbable forms such as magnesium oxide. This would result in an overall lower level of bioavailability even if the milligram amount of elemental magnesium was higher.
We feel that by offering 100% chelated magnesium lysinate-glycinate, we are confident that our Doctor's Best High Absorption Magnesium product is of the highest efficacy on the market.
