Why magnesium glycinate is awesome.

Why
magnesium
glycinate is
awesome.
All of us could do with a little more
magnesium in our lives.
Magnesium, you say?
Yep. Magnesium, the eighth most abundant
element in the universe and the seventh
most abundant in our planet’s crust.
But for such a common mineral, it is
actually very important for your body!
350 different uses.
Magnesium is, in fact, crucial
for our bodies. It’s used by
every cell to build proteins,
repair DNA, and provide
energy. It’s estimated to be
used in over 350 different
biochemical reactions!
That’s a lot of uses.
Magnesium has what it takes to...
Build our bones
Relax our muscles
Calm our mind
So you can see how taking
magnesium might be able to
help you out. Everyday.
Working out
Going to bed
At work
Or just hanging out
All right. I get it. But why
magnesium glycinate?

Good question.
By itself, glycinate is called glycine.
That’s an amino acid.
Amino acids link together to form proteins. Proteins
make up our cells, muscles, and tissues.
There are 500 amino acids in nature
but your body only uses 21 of them.
Glycine is one of those 21.
Glycine is used to help
make a lot of useful things
in your body such as...
Collagen
Used to heal
wounds.
Serine
An amino acid
that helps
the brain.
Glutathione
Used in the
liver as an
antioxidant.
Hemoglobin
An essential
component of
red blood cells.
This means that your body benefits from both parts of your
magnesium glycinate supplement. Nothing wasted - great!
Glycine is what makes
our magnesium sweet!
Magnesium glycinate
is also very absorbable.
Why is that?
Magnesium and glycine
share a strong bond.
Stronger than other
magnesium pairs.
So while other magnesium
pairs get broken apart by
stomach acid...
...magnesium and glycine
happily stay together.
And magnesium glycinate gets
better absorbed in your gut.
Your intestinal walls have different channels that
move different nutrients into your blood. These
channels are like doors for nutrients. Some move
minerals. Others move sugars. There are many
different kinds of channels.
Amino acids like glycine use dipeptide channels.
There are many dipeptide channels.
Because magnesium and glycine stay together,
they travel through dipeptide channels together.
And because there are many, more magnesium
can be absorbed by your body.
Other magnesiums that are not paired with a
useful amino acid like glycine are out of luck.
Remember those lonely magnesium
ions? The ones not so lucky to be
paired with glycine?
It turns out they can upset your digestive
system. These magnesium ions draw extra
water into your stomach and intestinal tract.
That can lead to bloating or diarrhoea. Blegh.
Grrrr!
Magnesium glycinate is gentle on the bowels!
So, let’s sum up.
•Magnesium is a really
important mineral. Your body
uses magnesium in over 350
different ways.
•Glycine is a useful amino
acid too. Our body uses it to
make a lot of different things.
•Magnesium and glycine have
a strong bond.
•This means magnesium
glycinate is gentle on your
bowels and easy to absorb!
With magnesium glycinate, your
body gets more of the magnesium
it craves, and gets you back
doing the things you love.
Awesome!
We love magnesium glycinate
so much that we decided to come
up with a fun way to take it.
That’s why we created MagPop!
Our team put on their thinking caps and created a
fun, fizzy drink with a lot of hard-working magnesium
glycinate. It also has vitamin C and electrolytes for a
little extra boost!
And because it’s supposed to
be as healthy as it is tasty, we
left out the gross stuff.
•
No artificial colours or flavours
•
No preservatives
•
Not even sugar! (we use xylitol)
Stop! Stop!
