Magnesium Glycinate — Sleep & Nervous System Support
Magnesium glycinate is the most bioavailable form of the mineral your body burns through under chronic stress — and the form your nervous system actually responds to. This formula delivers 275mg of elemental magnesium chelated to glycine, a calming amino acid that pulls double duty: it makes the magnesium absorbable, and it supports the GABA receptor activity your body needs to physically let down. No oxide. No high-dose citrate. No shortcuts.*
Six ways calm supports neurowellness
Magnesium powers more than 300 enzymatic reactions in the body — including the ones that govern your nervous system. Here's how this formula supports you at the deepest level.*
Why magnesium is the foundation of nervous system health →Supports Nervous System Regulation*
Magnesium plays a central role in regulating the parasympathetic nervous system — the "rest and digest" state your body needs to recover from chronic stress and high-demand days.*
Supports GABA Receptor Activity*
Both magnesium and glycine support GABA — the calming neurotransmitter system your body relies on to physically let down. Without enough of either, the let-down doesn't come.*
Supports Muscle Relaxation*
Magnesium is essential for muscle relaxation and post-exertion recovery — the physical "let-down" phase your body can't reach without enough of it.*
Supports Healthy Stress Response*
Stress depletes magnesium. Low magnesium amplifies the stress response. This formula helps interrupt that cycle by replenishing what high-demand living quietly burns through.*
Supports Restful Sleep*
Magnesium glycinate is the form most associated with sleep support. Glycine, the amino acid it's bound to, is studied for its role in supporting healthy sleep architecture and overnight recovery.*
Supports Energy Metabolism*
Magnesium is required for ATP — the body's energy currency. Adequate magnesium supports the cellular processes that turn food into the steady energy you can actually use.*
One ingredient. Every dose disclosed.
No proprietary blends. No hidden doses. One purpose-built ingredient at the form and dose the research actually uses.*
Magnesium Glycinate
Each three-capsule serving delivers 275 mg of elemental magnesium sourced from 2,500 mg of magnesium glycinate — the form most recommended for relaxation, sleep support, and gentle digestion. Cheaper forms like magnesium oxide are poorly absorbed; high-dose citrate is known for its laxative effect. Glycinate is different. By bonding magnesium to glycine — a naturally calming amino acid — you get a form your body can actually use, where your nervous system actually needs it.*
Glycine isn't just a delivery vehicle. It's an inhibitory neurotransmitter that supports GABA receptor activity in its own right — meaning this single ingredient is doing two jobs at once.*

Built for people who carry the weight.
Magnesium Glycinate is for anyone whose nervous system needs permission to power down — not just a sedative to override it.*
Veterans
Supporting nervous system recovery after high-stress service environments.*
Operators & First Responders
For the people whose on-switch never fully powers down at the end of shift.*
Light-Sleeping Parents
Light sleepers whose cortisol never settles — even when the house is finally quiet.*
Stack Builders
Addressing sleep at the nervous system layer — not just the chemical one.*
Formulated for nervous-system sleep — not just chemistry.
Glycinate Form
The most bioavailable, gentlest form — not the cheap oxide or laxative-grade citrate most brands use.*
Clinical Dose
275 mg of elemental magnesium per serving — the dose research actually uses, not a token sprinkle.*
Regulation Over Sedation
Sedatives override the system. Magnesium glycinate works with your body's natural sleep signaling, not against it.*
