Support digestive comfort with alkalising magnesium
Each capsule provides 144mg of elemental magnesium from magnesium hydroxide, one of the highest elemental magnesium doses per capsule in the range. Magnesium hydroxide is traditionally used as an antacid and gentle osmotic laxative, and in supplement form it serves a dual purpose: providing meaningful systemic magnesium alongside gastrointestinal benefits for those who experience acid reflux, heartburn or constipation.
When magnesium hydroxide encounters stomach acid, it reacts to form magnesium chloride and water, neutralising excess acid in the process. The magnesium chloride produced is then available for absorption. Any unabsorbed magnesium hydroxide passes to the intestines where it draws water by osmosis, softening stool and supporting regular bowel movements. This dual action makes it a practical choice for older adults or anyone who needs magnesium supplementation alongside digestive comfort. The vegetarian capsule shell is hydroxypropyl methylcellulose.
Key benefits:
| Each capsule contains: | %NRV* | |
|---|---|---|
| Magnesium | 144 mg | 38% |

Directions for use:
Take 1 capsule per day with food.
Taking with a meal ensures optimal conditions for the conversion to absorbable magnesium chloride and provides the acid neutralising benefit at the time it is most useful. If using specifically for constipation support, the capsule can be taken in the evening to encourage a morning bowel movement.
For those primarily seeking magnesium for muscle relaxation, sleep or stress without the gastrointestinal effects, Magnesium Bisglycinate or Magnesium Malate may be more appropriate choices. Magnesium Hydroxide is the best fit when antacid support and gentle bowel regulation are also desired alongside systemic magnesium replenishment.

Magnesium: glycinate vs citrate vs malate vs threonate?
Magnesium comes in several different chemical forms when sold as a supplement, and they are not interchangeable. They absorb at different rates and have different evidence bases for specific uses. Glycinate is well tolerated and absorbed via a different gut pathway than oxide, making it the typical default for general supplementation, sleep, and anxiety. Citrate is well absorbed but has a more pronounced laxative effect at higher doses. Malate fits energy metabolism contexts. L threonate is brain penetrant for cognitive applications. A 2022 systematic review in the journal Nutrition confirms that direct head to head trials comparing forms for specific clinical outcomes remain limited.

Magnesium Hydroxide supports relaxation, sleep quality, muscle recovery, and stress resilience. Magnesium is involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions.
Take in the evening, 30-60 minutes before bed for sleep support.
Common signs include muscle cramps, poor sleep, anxiety, fatigue, and tension headaches.
Yes, magnesium pairs well with vitamin D, zinc, and B vitamins. Space from calcium by 2 hours for optimal absorption.
Many people notice improved sleep and relaxation within 1-2 weeks. Full benefits develop over 4-8 weeks of consistent use.
Different forms have different benefits. Bisglycinate is best for sleep and relaxation, citrate for constipation, and malate for energy.
