  • Medically reviewed by Melissa Nieves, LND Magnesium is an essential mineral involved in more than 300 reactions in the body. Most plant-based foods contain magnesium. Still, most Americans do not meet magnesium requirements through food sources alone.

The article from MSN discusses the differences between magnesium glycinate and magnesium citrate, two popular forms of magnesium supplements. Magnesium glycinate is highlighted for its high absorption rate and its calming effects, making it beneficial for sleep, stress reduction, and muscle relaxation. It's often recommended for those with sensitive stomachs as it is less likely to cause digestive issues. On the other hand, magnesium citrate is noted for its laxative effect, which can help with constipation, and it's also used for its higher elemental magnesium content, which might be beneficial for those needing a higher dose. However, it can cause digestive discomfort in some individuals. The choice between the two depends on individual health needs, with glycinate being better for those looking to improve sleep or reduce anxiety, and citrate for those needing digestive relief or a higher magnesium intake.
