Natural
Magnesium Glycinate
for Stress
Magnesium plays a central role in the stress response and nervous system regulation. Deficiency is common and linked to heightened anxiety and stress reactivity. Glycinate form is well-tolerated and highly bioavailable.
How it works
Acts as a natural NMDA receptor antagonist, reducing excitatory neurotransmission. Regulates cortisol release and supports GABA synthesis. Stress depletes magnesium, creating a reinforcing cycle.
What to watch for
High doses (>400mg/day) can cause loose stools — glycinate form is better tolerated than oxide. Avoid if you have kidney disease.
