Magnesium Bisglycinate

High-bioavailability Magnesium Bisglycinate chelate (10-12% and buffered options). Gentle on the stomach. Ideal for sleep and stress formulas. Wholesale supply.

Nutri Partners offers high-grade Magnesium Bisglycinate powder wholesale, widely regarded as one of the most bioavailable and well-tolerated forms of magnesium on the market. It is formed by binding elemental magnesium to two molecules of the amino acid glycine (chelation). This unique structure allows it to bypass standard mineral absorption channels in the gut, ensuring maximum uptake without the laxative side effects common with cheaper forms like Magnesium Oxide or Citrate.

Key Features

  • Elemental Content: We supply both Fully Reacted (10-12% Mg) for premium applications and Buffered (20-30% Mg) for cost-optimized high-dose formulations.
  • Bioavailability: The glycine bond protects the magnesium from stomach acid, allowing efficient absorption in the intestines.
  • Tolerance: Exceptionally gentle on the stomach; does not cause diarrhea or digestive distress.
  • Solubility: Good water solubility, suitable for powder blends and beverages.
  • Function: Supports muscle relaxation, sleep quality, and nervous system health.

Applications

Magnesium Bisglycinate is the gold standard for premium nutraceuticals:

  • Sleep & Stress Support: The “calming” nature of glycine synergizes with magnesium, making it perfect for night-time supplements or blends with L-Tyrosine and B-vitamins.
  • Sports Recovery: Used in post-workout formulas to prevent muscle cramps and aid relaxation (ZMA blends).
  • Sensitive Digestion: The preferred choice for consumers with sensitive stomachs who cannot tolerate Magnesium Citrate.
  • Women’s Health: Often used in PMS support formulas due to its high absorption and gentleness.

Technical Description: Magnesium Bisglycinate Powder Wholesale

When sourcing Magnesium Bisglycinate powder wholesale, understanding the “Elemental Magnesium” content is critical.

Fully Reacted (Pure): Contains approx. 11% elemental magnesium. Every magnesium ion is chemically bonded to glycine. This is the premium standard – highly stable and bioavailable.
Buffered: Contains higher elemental magnesium (e.g., 20% or 30%). This is typically a “physical blend” or “semi-reaction” of Bisglycinate and Magnesium Oxide. It allows manufacturers to fit more magnesium into a smaller capsule (Claim: “High Potency”) and reduce costs, but bioavailability is lower than the fully reacted form.
We provide full transparency via FTIR analysis to confirm whether the product is a true chelate or a blend, depending on your label requirements.

Packaging & Logistics

Packaging: 25 kg fiber drums with double PE liners.

Storage: The product is hygroscopic (attracts moisture). Keep drums tightly sealed in a cool, dry place.

Samples: Available for both Fully Reacted (11%) and Buffered grades.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the elemental magnesium content only 11%?

In a pure chelate, the two glycine molecules are large and heavy. They take up most of the weight of the compound. Therefore, 100mg of Magnesium Bisglycinate powder yields about 11mg of actual Magnesium. This is a sign of a true chelate, not a defect.

Does it have a laxative effect?

No. Unlike Magnesium Oxide or Citrate, which draw water into the intestines (osmotic effect) causing loose stools, Bisglycinate is absorbed effectively into the bloodstream. It is the safest option for sensitive users.

What does it taste like?

Pure Magnesium Bisglycinate has a distinct, slightly metallic but mostly savory/sweet taste (due to glycine). It is much more palatable than the bitter Magnesium Sulfate, but for liquid applications, flavor masking is still recommended.
