Best magnesium for sleep

There is no single “best” magnesium for everyone. Oxide, citrate, and glycinate are different salts — not interchangeable. VitaminLoft™ sells magnesium glycinate for nervous system function, bone health, and relaxation / evening wind-down support.*

We named the form on the front and put 275 mg elemental next to it (from 2,500 mg magnesium glycinate per 3-capsule serving). That is what to compare when you shop.

Glycinate is magnesium chelated to glycine. Shoppers often pick it when they want a form that is usually gentler than magnesium oxide, and when the goal is relaxation support* rather than a different citrate use case.

• Glycinate vs oxide vs citrate — side-by-side
• Glycinate vs citrate — the two-form matchup
• Magnesium glycinate dosage — our suggested use

Suggested use: adults, 3 capsules once daily, or as directed by a healthcare professional. Many people take magnesium in the evening as part of a wind-down routine; follow your label and your clinician.
