Pure Lab - Magnesium Glycinate Powder Mix - Raspberry Lemon | 214 g

Magnesium is present in foods, like nuts, greens and whole grains--yet at least 80 percent of North Americans are deficient. Considering hectic lifestyles, dependence upon fast foods, nut allergies and chronic health conditions, it’s no wonder that society is falling short on the Recommended Daily Intake of about 450 milligrams per day of this mineral.

You’ve probably seen a wide array of natural health products that contain magnesium, but they aren’t all equal in their health benefits. Reports of unwanted side effects like bloating, gas and loose stool with the use of pure magnesium oxide supplements are common. This is because only a small amount of the magnesium from magnesium oxide is absorbed from the gut into the blood, and the unabsorbed portion is left in the bowel—whether you need it or not—causing loose stools.
