Nutricost Magnesium Glycinate

Magnesium supplementation for sleep and muscle relaxation.. This uses the glycinate form which is the gold standard for absorption and comfort. At 210mg, it provides about half of the daily requirement for most adults. It is a safe and effective starting point, but you might need a second capsule if you are targeting a specific deficiency.
