Magnesium Glycinate Powder
How we scored this product Show the full breakdown
Bevisning gates dose: the evidence grade sets the ceiling, and the dose decides how much of that ceiling the product reaches. Value = inverse of price-per-trial-dose-day. Community = mean sentiment of external reviews. Säkerhet caps applied after weighting.
This score is our editorial judgment, not a scientific standard. We combine published evidence, dose, price, transparency, and consumer signals into one composite: this is our method, not a peer-reviewed clinical rating. A higher score means a product does better on the factors we weight, not that it is medically proven to work.

Redaktionellt notes
Good-value chelated magnesium glycinate powder; the listed dose is compound weight, not elemental magnesium, so it likely delivers meaningfully less elemental Mg than the 2200mg figure implies, worth a footnote when comparing against capsule produkter that state elemental mg directly.
Why this scored this way
Cheap and cheerful magnesium glycinate that costs almost nothing per dag, but the score reflects a real transparency problem: no third-party testing and no public analysintyg. The 2200mg listed dose is compound (glycinate salt) weight, not elemental magnesium, so the actual magnesium content is much lower than the label suggests.
What drives the score up
- At $0.06/day it is one of the cheapest supplements on the entire site.
- Magnesium glycinate is a well-absorbed chelate form, and magnesium itself is evidence grade A.
- Community reviews are positive (score of 8.0, though based on a small sample).
What drags it down
- No third-party testing and no public analysintyg, which caps the quality transparency at 6.0.
- The 2200mg figure is compound weight, not elemental magnesium. Actual elemental Mg is likely around 300mg, which is still a good dose, but the label is misleading.
- Bulk Supplements is a budget brand without the quality documentation of premium competitors.
Why you'd choose it
- You want the absolute cheapest way to supplement magnesium.
- You want glycinate form for sleep and muscle cramp support.
Why you might skip it
- You want third-party verified purity and a public analysintyg.
- You need to know the exact elemental magnesium content (the compound weight label makes this unclear).
