MagCalm by Swilab, Swiss magnesium based on bisglycinate, glycerophosphate and citrate with taurine
What are the benefits of magnesium glycinate / bisglycinate / citrate?

Magnesium glycinate is a chelated magnesium bound to an amino acid, glycine. This form has an important characteristic: it is particularly well tolerated, gentle on the stomach and readily absorbable, making it a strategic option amongst magnesium-based products.

1. Nervous system support and stress management

Magnesium contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system. It participates in the regulation of synaptic transmission and modulates the activity of NMDA receptors involved in neuronal excitability.

Glycine, as an inhibitory amino acid, reinforces this effect. The result:

  • Support for muscle relaxation
  • Sleep support
  • Reduction of stress
  • Better emotional stability

Magnesium also contributes to normal psychological function and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

2. Maintenance of muscle function

Magnesium contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function. It is notably involved in:

  • Electrolyte balance and normal functioning
  • Muscle contraction and relaxation
  • Prevention of muscular disorders

For athletes, this form is particularly interesting as it supports normal energy metabolism without causing intestinal discomfort.

3. Energy metabolism and performance

Magnesium contributes to normal energy metabolism. It acts as a cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions linked to ATP production.

An optimal intake promotes:

  • Better recovery
  • Reduction of tiredness
  • Optimisation of cellular function

4. Superior digestive tolerance

Unlike magnesium oxide, which is commonly used but can have a laxative effect, glycinate is:

  • Particularly well tolerated
  • Associated with few significant digestive side effects
  • Suitable for sensitive individuals

It is a product suited to individuals with a sensitive stomach or intestinal disorders.

How should magnesium glycinate be taken?

Glycinate is a practical food supplement available in several forms:

  • Capsule
  • Tablet
  • Glycinate powder
  • Capsule box (e.g.: magnesium 60 pieces)

General recommendations

  • Take 3 capsules or tablets per day, according to the recommended dosage
  • With meals to improve tolerance
  • Do not exceed the recommended daily dose

Taking it with meals improves absorption and limits any digestive reactions.

Standard product format

Always keep out of reach of children.

Food supplements are not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet or a healthy lifestyle.

If taking medication or in the case of a particular medical condition, consult a healthcare professional.

What is the recommended dose of magnesium glycinate?

The recommended daily dose is generally 3 capsules or tablets per day. This depends on individual needs, diet and stress levels.

Magnesium dosage guide

Population Recommended daily dose
Adult woman 300–320 mg
Adult man 375–410 mg
Athlete May be adjusted according to energy expenditure
Child According to professional advice

These values correspond to the NRVs (Nutrient Reference Values).

Do not exceed the recommended daily dose indicated in the nutritional information on the product website.

Swiss data on magnesium intake

According to the Swiss Nutrition Bulletin 2021, micronutrient intakes in the Swiss population are frequently below the nutritional reference recommendations.

Wäfler M, Zuberbuehler CA (2021) indicate that:

  • The majority of the adult population (> 18 years) does not reach the recommended daily intakes for several micronutrients, including magnesium.
  • In individuals over 65, observed intakes are on average approximately 15% below the nutritional reference values.

This situation does not necessarily correspond to a severe clinical deficiency, but rather to a chronic suboptimal deficit, which may influence:

  • Fatigue
  • Muscular recovery
  • Stress regulation
  • Normal neuromuscular function

Key safety points

  • Do not exceed the daily dose
  • Keep out of reach of children
  • Not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet
  • If taking medication or in the case of a medical condition: consult a professional
Is magnesium glycinate well tolerated?

The question of tolerance is central when discussing magnesium-based food supplements. Many patients discontinue supplementation due to digestive discomfort. This is precisely where magnesium glycinate stands out.

Glycinate is a chelated form: magnesium is bound to glycine, an amino acid. This molecular encapsulation protects the mineral in the stomach and improves its passage through the intestinal barrier. Unlike some inorganic forms, it does not abruptly release free magnesium ions into the digestive tract.

Physiological result

  • Less osmotic effect
  • Fewer intestinal disorders
  • Progressive absorption
  • Better tolerance in sensitive adults

This property explains why it is considered a particularly well-tolerated formula, often recommended when citrate causes discomfort.

Magnesium contributes to the normal functioning of muscles and the nervous system. A well-tolerated form therefore enables lasting use, which is essential for achieving a genuine benefit for health, stress management or sports recovery.

Food supplements should be taken with meals. The recommended daily dose should not be exceeded and the product should be kept out of reach of children.

What types of magnesium are available?

Not all magnesium-based products have the same efficacy or the same clinical application. The choice depends on bioavailability, tolerance and the intended objective.

Magnesium citrate is well absorbed but may have a laxative effect at high doses. It is sometimes used to help regulate bowel function.

Magnesium oxide contains a high proportion of elemental magnesium, but its actual bioavailability is lower.

Magnesium bisglycinate, a chelated form, offers a clear advantage in terms of digestive tolerance and absorption. It is now one of the most widely used forms in premium formulations.

Combinations with ascorbic acid (antioxidant) or other minerals are also available depending on requirements.

Available forms (comparative table)

Magnesium form Key characteristics Bioavailability & tolerance Practical indication
Magnesium oxide High concentration of elemental magnesium. Simple mineral form. Generally lower bioavailability. A significant fraction may remain unabsorbed and exert an osmotic effect in the intestine. Higher risk of loose stools at high doses. Cost-oriented option or high elemental magnesium content, with absorption limitations to consider.
Magnesium citrate Well-soluble organic form. Absorption generally superior to oxide. May, however, cause digestive discomfort in sensitive individuals at high doses due to its osmotic effect. Useful when the objective includes occasional bowel support or rapid availability.
Glycinate / Bisglycinate Chelated form bound to glycine (amino acid). More stable structure during digestive transit. Bioavailability comparable to or greater than conventional forms, with often better digestive tolerance. Less osmotic effect reported. Sustainable daily supplementation. Recommended for sensitive individuals or those prone to digestive disorders.

Some capsules use hydroxypropyl methylcellulose for plant-based encapsulation, free from lactose and gluten.

The choice should always be based on the quality of ingredients, the nutritional description and the transparency of the manufacturer's website.

Where can I buy an advanced magnesium glycinate formula?

In a market where most magnesium-based products rely on a single, poorly absorbable form, MagCalm by Swilab takes a comprehensive physiological approach.

Its formula is based on three complementary forms:

  • Magnesium glycinate
  • Magnesium bisglycinate
  • Magnesium citrate
  • Enriched with taurine

This combination is not marketing. It is strategic.

A glycinate / bisglycinate base: maximum absorption and tolerance

Glycinate and bisglycinate are chelated forms. The magnesium is bound to glycine, an amino acid, which protects the mineral during its digestive passage.

Result:

  • Particularly well-tolerated formula
  • Gentle on the stomach
  • Fewer intestinal disorders
  • Better cellular absorption
  • Tolerated even by sensitive individuals

Magnesium contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system, normal muscle function and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. A well-absorbable form is essential to ensure these effects.

The strategic addition of citrate: rapid availability

Magnesium citrate completes the formula with faster availability.

It allows:

  • More immediate availability in the body
  • Support for energy metabolism
  • Support during periods of stress or intensive sport

The combination of glycinate + bisglycinate + citrate enables both a progressive and rapid effect.

Taurine: nervous and muscular stabilisation

MagCalm is enriched with taurine, a sulphur-containing amino acid essential for proper cellular function.

Taurine:

  • Supports electrolyte balance
  • Contributes to nervous system stability
  • Supports muscle relaxation
  • Promotes recovery after exertion

This synergy reinforces the product's application in the context of stress, fatigue or sport.

Where can I buy magnesium glycinate?

Purchases can be made at a pharmacy or online. Pharmacies offer direct advice, but the price may be higher.

On a specialist website, the user often benefits from:

  • Better navigation
  • A complete description
  • Customer reviews
  • Secure payment
  • Fast delivery

In Switzerland, prices are shown in CHF. It is important to check shipping costs and delivery conditions before ordering.

When purchasing, check:

  • The presence of NRVs
  • The recommended daily dose
  • The quality of the formula
  • The absence of unnecessary additives

Buying magnesium glycinate should be a choice based on quality and not solely on price.

What are the side effects of magnesium glycinate?

Glycinate is generally well tolerated. However, as with any food supplement, side effects may occur in cases of improper use.

The observed effects are most often linked to exceeding the recommended daily dose:

  • Mild digestive disorders
  • Softer stools
  • Abdominal discomfort

These reactions remain rare compared with other forms.

It is recommended to:

  • Take the product with meals
  • Respect the indicated dose
  • Consult a healthcare professional if undergoing treatment

Magnesium is essential for the proper functioning of the body. It contributes to normal muscle function, energy metabolism and electrolyte balance. Suitable, well-tolerated supplementation, used correctly, provides lasting benefit without compromising safety.
