Most magnesium tablets use magnesium oxide — 60% elemental content, 4% bioavailability. You’re paying for a laxative, not a supplement. Magnesium 3 Complex uses glycinate, malate and taurate — the three highest-absorption chelated forms — for sleep, energy and heart health.

The cheapest form to manufacture. 60% elemental magnesium by weight. But only 4% is actually absorbed. The other 96% stays in your gut and causes diarrhoea.
Chelated magnesium binds magnesium to an amino acid or organic acid — how magnesium appears in food. This dramatically improves absorption and eliminates digestive side effects.
| Form | Bioavailability | Digestive tolerance | In Magnesium 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Magnesium glycinate | 55–70% ↑ | Excellent ✓ | ✓ Yes |
| Magnesium malate | 55–70% ↑ | Excellent ✓ | ✓ Yes |
| Magnesium taurate | High ↑ | Excellent ✓ | ✓ Yes |
| Magnesium citrate | 30–40% → | Moderate | ✗ No |
| Magnesium oxide | 4% ↓ | Poor (laxative) | ✗ No |
Glycine is an inhibitory neurotransmitter with calming properties. Most studied for sleep quality, anxiety reduction and nervous system support. Take in the evening.
Malic acid is central to the Krebs cycle — the cellular process that produces ATP. Directly supports energy metabolism. Preferred form in fibromyalgia research.
Taurine has specific cardioprotective properties. Supports healthy blood pressure, cardiac rhythm and arterial flexibility. Best taken with food.
Magnesium and zinc are co-dependent. Zinc is required for the enzymatic processes that utilise magnesium in energy metabolism.
B6 increases cellular magnesium uptake. Without B6, some magnesium cannot enter cells. EU authorises the claim that B6 supports reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Research estimates up to 45% of Western adults are deficient in magnesium. Most are unaware.
Difficulty falling or staying asleep
Persistent tiredness despite adequate sleep
Muscle cramps or twitches, particularly at night
Anxiety or irritability without clear cause
Frequent headaches or migraines
High caffeine or alcohol intake — both deplete magnesium

Magnesium & sleep: Clinical research confirms glycine supplementation significantly improves sleep quality and reduces daytime fatigue.
Magnesium taurate & blood pressure: Research in Nutrients found the magnesium-taurine combination produced greater blood pressure reductions than either alone.
Morning or evening?
For sleep benefits, take in the evening with dinner. For energy, take in the morning. A single consistent daily dose works well either way.
