Magnesium is involved in over 800 enzymatic functions in the body and plays a role in energy metabolism, tissue formation, muscle function, and bone development. That’s one busy mineral.

While it is a common mineral, concentrations in our food aren’t as high as they once were. Intensive agricultural methods have depleted magnesium from soil. To make matters worse, medications and common drinks like coffee or wine can impair absorption or increase the excretion of magnesium. It’s no wonder that nearly half of Canadians aren’t getting enough of this important mineral.

CanPrev’s Magnesium Bis-Glycinate 200 Gentle provides 200mg of pure elemental magnesium per capsule in a bis-glycinate form that is gentle on the bowels.
