Magnesium Glycinate

275 mg of elemental magnesium in the evening. The form of magnesium with the best absorption, the cleanest sleep effect, and the strongest case for clients dealing with the side effects most prescribers do not mention.*

Bad sleep on a protocol means lost muscle instead of lost fat.

Magnesium is a cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body. Most adults are deficient. The effects of low magnesium show up as poor sleep, elevated stress reactivity, muscle cramping, blood sugar dysregulation, and constipation.*

The glycinate form is bonded to glycine, which calms the nervous system on its own. The combination is the most effective magnesium for sleep, recovery, and nervous system regulation. Other forms (oxide, citrate, malate) have their place, but for the use case we care about, glycinate is the right answer.*

For clients in rapid weight loss or a metabolic transition, magnesium glycinate addresses three problems at once: the digestive slowdown that comes with reduced intake, the sleep disruption that often accompanies fast body composition change, and the muscle cramping that shows up when food intake drops. For clients on TRT or HRT, magnesium supports the recovery and stress regulation that lets the protocol do its job.*

Glycinate form. No filler.

Active ingredient: Magnesium (from 2,500 mg Magnesium Glycinate) 275 mg elemental per 3-capsule serving.

Other ingredients: Hypromellose (vegetable capsule), Magnesium Stearate, Silicon Dioxide, Rice Flour.

Not included: Magnesium oxide (cheap, poorly absorbed), magnesium citrate (laxative effect), magnesium malate (different use case), or blends that combine forms to inflate label numbers. The glycinate form is what the research supports for sleep and recovery.

How it goes in the day.

Dose: Three (3) capsules, providing 275 mg of elemental magnesium. Read labels carefully on any magnesium product. Some list total compound weight rather than elemental magnesium, which is the number that matters.
Timing: 30 to 60 minutes before bed. The relaxation and sleep effect lands within that window for most people.
Food: Can be taken with or without food. Take with food if you notice any GI sensitivity.

Who benefits most.

• Clients dealing with constipation, slowed digestion, or disrupted sleep during weight loss
• Clients on TRT, HRT, or peptide protocols where recovery and sleep quality drive results
• Adults with stress reactivity, sleep onset issues, or muscle cramping
• Clients training hard and recovering poorly
• Anyone with poor magnesium intake from food (most adults)

Less critical for: Clients already getting 400 mg+ of magnesium from food (rare) or clients on prescribed magnesium therapy under physician supervision.

A note from your coach.

Magnesium glycinate is part of the personalized supplementation guidance we build into PLC coaching. We adjust dose and timing based on your sleep data, recovery markers, and how your body is responding to your protocol. If you are not a coaching client, an evening dose is the right starting point for most adults.
