What the research says about magnesium
Educational summaries of published research on magnesium and its chelated (bis-glycinate) form; not product-specific claims. CanPrev Magnesium Bis-Glycinate 250 Ultra Gentle's authorized claim is the single use under NPN 80091610: a factor in the maintenance of good health.
250mg magnesium bisglycinate modestly reduced insomnia severity
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 155 adults reporting poor sleep quality found that 250 mg of elemental magnesium as magnesium bisglycinate produced a significantly greater reduction in Insomnia Severity Index scores at 4 weeks compared with placebo, with a small effect size.
Human RCTMagnesium L-threonate improved sleep-related impairment in a 6-week trial
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in adults with self-reported dissatisfied sleep found that magnesium L-threonate (Magtein) supplementation improved self-reported sleep-related impairment and heart-rate variability during sleep compared with placebo, though objective sleep-tracker measures did not differ between groups.
Human RCTSystematic review finds mostly positive but heterogeneous evidence for magnesium and sleep
A systematic review of 15 interventional trials on magnesium for anxiety and sleep disorders found the majority of studies showed improvement in at least one sleep- or anxiety-related outcome, with the most benefit seen in participants with low baseline magnesium status, though study quality and dosing varied widely.
Systematic ReviewMagnesium diglycinate showed better absorption than magnesium oxide in impaired absorbers
A double-blind crossover trial in patients with ileal resection found that, among those with the greatest impairment absorbing magnesium oxide, absorption of an equivalent dose of magnesium diglycinate (chelate) was significantly higher and better tolerated.
Human RCTOrganic, amino-acid-bound magnesium compounds showed dose-dependent tissue uptake
An animal study comparing organic acid-bound and amino-acid-bound magnesium compounds, including magnesium glycinate, found dose-dependent increases in tissue magnesium levels, supporting better tissue transition for organic chelated forms.
Preclinical studyMineral-binding peptides may enhance mineral bioavailability and gut stability
A review of food-derived antioxidant and mineral-binding peptides - the amino-acid chelation chemistry behind forms like magnesium bis-glycinate - describes how peptide-mineral complexes can resist digestive breakdown and facilitate mineral bioavailability compared with unchelated salts.
ReviewCochrane review found no meaningful benefit for cramp prevention in older adults
An updated Cochrane review of 11 trials (735 participants) concluded that oral magnesium supplementation is unlikely to provide clinically meaningful cramp prophylaxis for older adults with idiopathic nocturnal leg cramps, though evidence for pregnancy-related cramps remained inconsistent.
Cochrane ReviewCochrane review of pregnancy leg cramp treatments found inconsistent magnesium results
A Cochrane review of interventions for leg cramps in pregnancy found the evidence on oral magnesium was inconsistent across small trials - some showed a possible reduction in cramp frequency or intensity, others showed little or no difference - concluding the certainty of evidence was low to very low.
Cochrane ReviewObservational trial found no advantage over placebo for pregnancy leg cramps
A controlled trial of 132 pregnant women with leg cramps found a similar reduction in cramp frequency in both the oral magnesium citrate group and the placebo group after 4 weeks, with no significant difference between them.
Human RCTSystematic review found suggestive but low-quality evidence for anxiety
A systematic review of 18 studies in anxiety-vulnerable populations found suggestive evidence that magnesium supplementation may reduce subjective anxiety, but rated the overall quality of the existing evidence as poor and called for well-designed randomized trials.
Systematic ReviewReview finds magnesium levels may correlate with several psychiatric conditions
A systematic review of 32 studies found reduced plasma magnesium was frequently associated with depressive symptoms and that magnesium supplementation showed mainly positive results for depression, while evidence for anxiety and other conditions was less consistent.
Systematic ReviewSystematic review found magnesium plus B6 reduced premenstrual stress
A systematic review of dietary supplements for stress and anxiety in women found combined magnesium and vitamin B6 supplementation reduced premenstrual anxiety, though magnesium alone showed no effect and did not reduce stress related to dysmenorrhea.
Systematic ReviewMeta-analysis found magnesium supplementation modestly lowered blood pressure
A meta-analysis of 38 randomized controlled trials (2,709 participants) found magnesium supplementation reduced systolic blood pressure by 2.81 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure by 2.05 mmHg compared with placebo, with larger reductions in those with hypertension or low magnesium status.
Meta-analysisMagnesium reduced new-onset atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery
A meta-analysis of 24 randomized controlled trials (3,373 participants) found that magnesium supplementation reduced the risk of new-onset atrial fibrillation following cardiac surgery, with high-certainty evidence in lower-bias trials, though it had no significant effect on all-cause mortality.
Meta-analysisOral magnesium modestly improved insulin sensitivity and lipids in prediabetes
A systematic review and meta-analysis of 5 randomized trials in prediabetic adults found oral magnesium supplementation significantly improved post-load glucose, insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), triglycerides and HDL cholesterol, with excellent safety and tolerability.
Meta-analysisNarrative review confirms magnesium's link to bone mineral density
An updated narrative review of 28 studies found that lower serum magnesium is associated with osteoporosis, that roughly a fifth of people consistently consume less magnesium than recommended, and that magnesium supplementation trials showed benefits for both bone mineral density and fracture risk.
ReviewHigher magnesium intake linked to higher hip bone mineral density in older adults
A systematic review and meta-analysis of studies in adults 60 and older found a significant positive association between magnesium intake and hip bone mineral density, though evidence for other bone sites and fracture outcomes was more limited.
Meta-analysisMagnesium identified among nutrients relevant to fracture healing
A narrative review of dietary supplements used during adult fracture recovery found early evidence suggesting magnesium and zinc may offer some benefit for early fracture healing, alongside protein, vitamin D and calcium, though the authors note the direct clinical evidence remains limited.
ReviewReview estimates roughly a third of the global population falls short on magnesium
A 2025 review estimates that approximately 2.4 billion people, or about 31% of the global population, do not meet recommended magnesium intake levels, driven by modern dietary patterns, soil depletion and food processing losses.
ReviewGlobal modelling study finds magnesium intake gaps skew higher in men
A global modelling analysis covering 185 countries estimated the prevalence of inadequate micronutrient intakes and found that, within the same country and age group, inadequate magnesium intake was estimated to be more common in men than in women.
Modelling StudyCanadian data show multivitamin/mineral users have lower nutrient-inadequacy rates
An analysis of the Canadian Community Health Survey found about one in four Canadians uses a multivitamin/mineral supplement, and that supplement users - including for magnesium - showed a lower prevalence of dietary nutrient inadequacy than non-users.
Cohort analysisMagnesium acts as a cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions
A comprehensive review describes magnesium as a cofactor for more than 300 enzymatic reactions, essential for ATP energy metabolism, muscle contraction, protein synthesis and DNA synthesis throughout the body.
ReviewMagnesium is a required cofactor for activating vitamin D
A review found that the enzymes that metabolize vitamin D in the liver and kidneys all appear to require magnesium as a cofactor, linking adequate magnesium intake to the body's ability to properly activate and use vitamin D.
ReviewMagnesium's role as an enzyme cofactor extends to fundamental energy-transfer reactions
A review of magnetic isotope effects in bioenergetics found that magnesium acts as a cofactor accelerating the ATP hydrolysis reaction that powers myosin, the molecular motor behind muscle contraction, underscoring magnesium's fundamental role in cellular energy transfer.
