What is Liposomal Magnesium?

Liposomal magnesium is magnesium wrapped in a protective layer of lipids (the same kind of fatty molecules your cells are built from), forming tiny spheres called liposomes.

Magnesium is notoriously hard for the body to absorb. A good deal of an ordinary dose is never taken up, and unabsorbed magnesium is what tends to cause the loose stools and digestive upset that higher-dose magnesium supplements are known for. The liposome is designed to shield the magnesium as it travels through the digestive system, so more of it can be absorbed rather than passed through.

We've seen how powerful this delivery method can be. In a double-blind, randomised human trial on our own liposomal vitamin C, blood levels reached almost four times higher than standard, non-liposomal vitamin C at the same dose, with no reported side effects. That's the same liposomal technology we use to deliver magnesium.

Because the lipid shell is so similar to the body's own cell membranes, it's a format designed to work with your body rather than against it: a smoother, gentler way to take magnesium, without the megadoses that can leave unabsorbed magnesium sitting in the gut.

In short: the same essential mineral, delivered in a form built to make the most of every dose.

Why take Liposomal Magnesium?

Relax & unwind

Magnesium contributes to normal nervous system function and normal psychological function, helping you feel more balanced day to day.

Focus

Magnesium contributes to normal psychological function and normal cognitive-supporting energy metabolism, for staying sharp through busy days.

Muscles and energy

Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function, normal energy-yielding metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, so you can stay active and recover well.

Magnesium Glycinate VS. other Magnesium

Not all magnesium is equal. The mineral is always paired with something else to make it stable, and that pairing makes a big difference to how well your body absorbs it and how gently it sits with you. We use magnesium glycinate, one of the most absorbable and best-tolerated forms available.

Magnesium glycinate

Magnesium bound to glycine, an amino acid your body uses naturally. It's a chelated form, which means it's well absorbed and known for being gentle on digestion, without the laxative effect that catches people out with cheaper forms.

Magnesium oxide

The form found in many low-cost supplements. It looks high in magnesium on paper, but a large share of it isn't absorbed, which is also what makes it the form most likely to cause loose stools.

Magnesium citrate

Magnesium bound to citric acid. Reasonably absorbed, but well known for its laxative effect, which is why it's often used precisely for that purpose rather than for daily topping up.

Wrapped in our liposomal delivery system, magnesium glycinate becomes a smoother, gentler way to get your magnesium, chosen for absorption and tolerability rather than cost.

Directions for use

For our capsules, take two capsules daily with or without food.

For our liquid sachets:

  • One sachet a day – perfectly portioned and ready to drink, simply rip, sip and go.
  • Store at room temperature – but for the best taste, keep in the fridge.
  • Enjoy your way – straight from the sachet, mixed into water, juice, and smoothies or drizzled over yoghurt, fruit, and oats.
Should I take the liquid sachets or capsules?

Both deliver magnesium bisglycinate, our chosen form for absorption and tolerability, in our liposomal delivery system. The difference comes down to how much magnesium you want per serving and how you prefer to take it.

Choose the liquid sachets if...

You want the higher dose and enjoy the ritual. Each sachet delivers 200mg of elemental magnesium (53% NRV) in a pineapple-flavoured liquid you can take straight from the sachet or mix into water, smoothies or yoghurt.

Choose the capsules if...

You want simple and convenient. Two small capsules a day give you 100mg of elemental magnesium (27% NRV), with no taste and nothing to mix, easy to take anywhere and ideal if you'd rather keep it flavourless.

If you're not sure, the sachets are the stronger daily dose and the more enjoyable way to take magnesium, while the capsules are the easiest to slot into a routine and travel with.

Reviews

Highly Recommend for Better Sleep

"I've been really impressed with this magnesium supplement. I've struggled with both falling asleep and staying asleep for quite a while, and after taking this consistently, I've noticed a real difference. Not only do I fall asleep much more easily, but I also stay asleep throughout the night and wake up feeling rested."
