Product Description

Magnesium is a vital cofactor involved in over 300 enzyme systems that regulate critical biochemical processes in the body — including protein synthesis, muscle and nerve function, blood glucose control, and blood pressure regulation.

It plays a central role in energy production, oxidative phosphorylation, glycolysis, and the structural development of bones. Magnesium is essential for DNA, RNA, and glutathione synthesis and supports the active transport of calcium and potassium across cell membranes — a key process in nerve conduction, muscle contraction, and maintaining a healthy heartbeat.

What is Magnesium Glycinate?

Magnesium Glycinate is created by chelating one magnesium ion with two glycine molecules. This chelation produces a highly bioavailable and gentle form of magnesium that’s well-tolerated, even on sensitive stomachs.

Due to its molecular structure, only about 14% of magnesium glycinate is elemental magnesium. While some products buffer their formula with magnesium oxide or stearate to artificially increase magnesium content, this compromises absorption and often causes gastrointestinal discomfort.

We don’t buffer. CLEPON uses only pure magnesium glycinate — no additives, no mixed forms.

CLEPON … because we care

Each #00 size capsule (23.3 mm) provides 100 mg of elemental magnesium from 720 mg of pure magnesium glycinate and is free from any other forms of magnesium.

This modular dosage allows flexible intake from 1 to 4 capsules per day (100–400 mg), tailored to your individual needs.

We keep our formula clean and transparent, with:
✔️ Only magnesium glycinate — no other forms
✔️ No fillers, stearates, or colorants
✔️ Vegan capsules
✔️ Free from sugar, GMOs, and the 9 common allergens: milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soy, and sesame
✔️ Third-party tested for purity and safety

Magnesium Glycinate: Questions & Answers

What is Magnesium Glycinate?
Magnesium glycinate is a chelated compound in which a single magnesium ion is bound to two molecules of the amino acid glycine. This chelation enhances the compound’s stability and solubility, contributing to its efficient absorption in the human body compared to many inorganic magnesium salts.

For more detailed molecular information, you can refer to the U.S. National Institutes of Health entry on Magnesium Glycinate – PubChem Database .
How much elemental magnesium does magnesium glycinate contain?
Magnesium glycinate consists of one magnesium ion (Mg²⁺) chelated with two glycine molecules. The approximate molecular weight of magnesium glycinate is 172.42 g/mol, of which magnesium accounts for about 24.3 g/mol.

This means that elemental magnesium makes up approximately 14% of the total compound by weight.

For example, 720 mg of magnesium glycinate provides about 100 mg of elemental magnesium. The actual amount absorbed may vary based on individual digestive health and nutrient status.
Can magnesium glycinate contain more or less than 14% elemental magnesium?
The theoretical elemental magnesium content of pure magnesium glycinate is approximately 14%, based on its molecular composition (24.3 g/mol magnesium ÷ 172.42 g/mol total compound). This ratio is chemically fixed and cannot exceed that limit in pure form.

If a product claims more than 14% elemental magnesium, it likely includes buffered forms — such as added magnesium oxide — to artificially raise the magnesium content. These additions are often not clearly disclosed and may reduce bioavailability.

On the other hand, slightly lower values (e.g., 13.5%–14%) can naturally occur due to variations in manufacturing processes, such as differences in water content, crystal hydration, or analytical measurement precision.
Is there a natural form of magnesium glycinate?
No — magnesium glycinate does not occur naturally in foods or in nature. It is a synthetic compound created by chemically binding one magnesium ion with two glycine molecules, a process known as chelation.

While magnesium and glycine are both naturally found in foods, the chelated form known as magnesium glycinate is produced in controlled laboratory conditions to ensure stability, purity, and bioavailability. It is specifically engineered for use in dietary supplements because of its gentle effect on the digestive system and efficient absorption.
Why is magnesium glycinate highly absorbable and gentle on the stomach?
Magnesium glycinate is considered highly absorbable because it is a chelated compound — one magnesium ion is tightly bound to two glycine molecules, forming a stable structure that protects the magnesium from interacting with other compounds in the digestive tract.

This chelation helps magnesium bypass some of the common absorption barriers in the intestines, allowing it to be absorbed through amino acid pathways rather than depending solely on mineral transporters. As a result, magnesium glycinate tends to have higher bioavailability compared to non-chelated forms like magnesium oxide or magnesium sulfate.

Additionally, the presence of glycine, a naturally calming amino acid, makes this form particularly gentle on the gastrointestinal system, causing fewer digestive side effects such as diarrhea or cramping — issues often associated with other magnesium salts.
How much magnesium do I need to take?
The recommended daily intake of magnesium depends on age, sex, and physiological status (such as pregnancy or lactation). Below are the current guidelines from the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH):

Age Male Female Pregnancy Lactation
Birth to 6 months* 30 mg 30 mg
7–12 months* 75 mg 75 mg
1–3 years 80 mg 80 mg
4–8 years 130 mg 130 mg
9–13 years 240 mg 240 mg
14–18 years 410 mg 360 mg 400 mg 360 mg
19–30 years 400 mg 310 mg 350 mg 310 mg
31–50 years 420 mg 320 mg 360 mg 320 mg
51+ years 420 mg 320 mg

Please note: values marked with an asterisk (*) are adequate intake estimates.

Individual magnesium needs can vary depending on factors such as diet, stress levels, medications, or medical conditions. For personalized recommendations, it’s best to consult a healthcare provider.
