Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays a key role in many important functions across the body. It's a foundational nutrient for overall well-being, from supporting your muscles and nervous system to promoting a healthy response to stress.

At Elite Supplements, we stock a wide range of magnesium supplements in capsule and powder formats, making it easier to find a product that suits your needs, routine and preferences. Whether you're training hard or simply prioritising daily wellness, our range can help you find the best magnesium supplement for your goals.

Why take magnesium supplements?

While magnesium is naturally present in foods like leafy greens, nuts, seeds and whole grains, many people don't reach the recommended daily intake. Incorporating a high-quality magnesium supplement in your diet may help to:

  • Maintain general health
  • Decrease muscle cramps when dietary intake is not enough
  • Help relieve mild muscle spasms or twitches
  • Support healthy muscle function and muscle health
  • Promote the body's adaptation to stress
  • Maintain a healthy nervous system
  • May reduce sleeplessness

These benefits make magnesium a popular choice for athletes, active individuals and those dealing with physical tension, disrupted sleep or everyday stress.

Choosing the right magnesium supplement

Eager to select your first magnesium supplement? Prior to making a choice, consider factors like formulation (capsule vs powder), dosage, and which manganese compound aligns best with your needs. The four types of magnesium include:

  • Glycinate: Magnesium glycinate (or bisglycinate) links magnesium to glycine for excellent bioavailability and is gentle on the stomach. It's perfect for sleep, reducing anxiety, and relaxing muscles without laxative effects, making it an essential choice for evening recovery stacks like ZMA.
  • Citrate: Magnesium citrate combines magnesium with citric acid for effective absorption and good solubility. It aids overall energy, digestion, and minor constipation relief, though higher doses may cause loose stools (helpful post-workout if necessary).
  • Oxide: Magnesium oxide provides a high elemental magnesium concentration at a low price but has poor absorption (around 4%). It's typical in budget multis or laxatives, less suitable for improving blood levels or fitness targets.
  • Malate: Magnesium malate merges magnesium with malic acid to enhance energy production through the Krebs cycle. It's ideal for fatigue, fibromyalgia, or workout stamina without significant gastrointestinal effects.

Opt for capsule or powder formats

Our magnesium supplements come in both capsule and powder forms. Capsules are perfect for those looking for a quick, convenient choice. They're excellent for travel, busy schedules, or regular daily intake.

Prefer something more adaptable? Powders enable you to modify your dosage, blend with liquids or smoothies, and are a solid option if you dislike tablets. Some varieties are flavored, allowing for easy integration into your supplement collection.

No matter what format you choose, you can trust that we provide high-quality products from reputable brands that adhere to our standards for performance and purity.
