A larger, more cost-effective option of Solgar's chelated magnesium, blending highly absorbable glycinate with less effective oxide for broad benefits.
Quantity: 250Quantity: 100
As with the smaller version, Solgar's choice to include magnesium glycinate chelate is a strong point, as this form is excellent for absorption and often recommended for calming effects on the nervous system, aiding sleep and stress management. The balance with magnesium oxide likely contributes to the overall elemental magnesium content while managing cost. This larger pack offers a better price per serving compared to the 100-count bottle (ID 148360), making it a more economical choice for regular use. Despite the oxide, it remains a solid option for those seeking the benefits of chelated magnesium from a trusted brand.
