Magnesium is one of the most important minerals needed by the human body. However, according to the Department of Agriculture, more than half of all Americans do not meet the daily recommended intake of magnesium due to modern agricultural practices that strip nutrients from our soil. Environmental and lifestyle factors, such as stress and poor diet, can also deplete your body of this essential mineral. Fortunately, supplementing with lab-verified magnesium can help resolve this issue.

The Health Ranger Store has partnered with Chief Originals® to bring back two of your favorite magnesium supplements: Magnesium Comfort and Magnesium Glycinate. Each magnesium supplement offers its own unique benefits.

Chief Originals® Magnesium Comfort (magnesium malate powder) provides a balanced combination of pure magnesium and malic acid to assist your body in utilizing calcium to support healthy bones and joints.

Chief Originals® Magnesium Glycinate Powder has been carefully chelated with the amino acid glycine for optimal bioavailability.

Both high-quality magnesium supplements are vegan, non-GMO and meticulously lab tested for glyphosate, heavy metals and microbiology.

Magnesium is a macromineral that is responsible for over 300 chemical reactions in your body, including your body’s natural production of the antioxidant glutathione. It is also vital for maintaining strong bones, teeth and muscle. Every single cell in your body contains trace amounts of magnesium, with around 60% of your total magnesium reserves in your bones, while the rest can be found in your muscles, soft tissues, blood and other bodily fluids.

While you can increase your intake of magnesium by eating more fresh fruits and vegetables, your body normally only absorbs about 30-40% of magnesium from these sources. A more effective way to boost your magnesium intake would be to take high-quality magnesium supplements. 

Because magnesium is considered a macromineral, it is needed in large amounts by the body in order to maintain optimal health. This is in contrast to trace minerals which, as the name suggests, are needed in much smaller quantities. In fact, magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in your body. As such, a deficiency in magnesium can lead to serious health problems.

According to experts, magnesium deficiency can manifest itself in many ways, such as:

ABNORMAL CONTRACTIONS OR SPASMS

FEELINGS OF NAUSEA

FREQUENT FATIGUE OR TIREDNESS

MUSCLE CRAMPS AND WEAKNESS

LOSS OF APPETITE

WEAK OR BRITTLE BONES

FEELING BLUE

CHANGES IN HEART RATE OR RHYTHM

RESTLESS LEG SYNDROME

IRRITABILITY

TROUBLE SLEEPING

WEAKENED IMMUNE SYSTEM

The amount of magnesium you need each day depends on your age, gender and physiological conditions. Here are the current recommended daily allowances (RDA) in milligrams:

Adult women

500 mg per day

Adult men

700 mg per day

According to the American Physiological Society, the absolute minimum RDA for women is around 320 mg per day and over 400 mg per day for men. However, research suggests that up to half of the American population usually does not even reach this requirement. People at high risk of magnesium deficiency may need more, especially older adults.

Ideally, the daily magnesium intake should be around 500 mg for women and 700 mg for men. Even fewer people – only about two out of every 10 – reach this optimal daily intake. Fortunately, Chief Originals® Magnesium Glycinate Powder and Magnesium Comfort make it easier than ever to reach these recommended amounts.

Check with your healthcare provider about how much magnesium you need in your daily diet.

MAINTAINS STRONG AND HEALTHY BONES

SUPPORTS A HEALTHY SLEEP CYCLE

UPLIFTS AND ELEVATES MOOD

There’s a good reason why magnesium is known as the "relaxation mineral." Having sufficient levels of magnesium is associated with deep and restful sleep, whereas a lack of it is often linked to poor sleep quality. A study published in the Journal Scientifica indicated that supplementing with magnesium may support a healthy sleeping patterns and maintain optimal sleep quality. 

A low intake of magnesium is often linked to low levels of your serotonin, your body’s natural feel-good chemical. This can result in a tense body and an anxious mind. Research shows that having the optimal magnesium intake has great potential to uplift and elevate your mood.

Calcium isn’t the only thing you need for strong and healthy bones. Magnesium is also crucial for optimal calcium absorption. These minerals work together to ensure they both end up in the rich mineral deposits in your bones and teeth. Strong and healthy human bones often contain roughly 60% of all your body’s magnesium reserves.

PROMOTES HEALTHY CARDIOVASCULAR FUNCTION

MAINTAINS HEALTHY DIGESTIVE FUNCTION

SUPPORTS HEALTHY ENERGY LEVELS

Magnesium is necessary for maintaining optimal heart health. It also works with iron to keep your metabolic and cardiovascular systems working efficiently. According to a study that appeared in the journal Nutrients, supplementing with magnesium can help maintain healthy blood pressure levels already within the normal range.

Your normal digestive processes are among the many bodily functions magnesium is involved in. When used as a regular addition to your diet, magnesium can support healthy digestive function and promote normal bowel movements.

Magnesium plays a vital part in your body’s natural energy production. Magnesium can do this job well enough on its own, but when paired with either glycine or malic acid, it can achieve even greater efficiency.

SUPPORTS HEALTHY BRAIN FUNCTION

PROMOTES HEALTHY MUSCLE PERFORMANCE

ENCOURAGES MUSCLE RELAXATION

Magnesium can promote optimal mental well-being and healthy cognitive function. Studies have also shown that a higher intake of magnesium can uplift your mood.

Magnesium is necessary for maintaining the optimal health of your muscles. A study published in the Journal of Pain & Relief also suggested that magnesium can help maintain muscle flexibility.

It might seem counterintuitive that magnesium glycinate can both support your natural energy levels and helps you relax, but it's true. Magnesium is one of the most effective relaxation supplements available.

Since your body normally only absorbs less than half the magnesium you consume from food sources, magnesium supplements are usually chelated or bound to another substance to make them easier to absorb. However, not all forms of magnesium are equal. Some are more efficient at providing certain benefits than others. Magnesium glycinate and magnesium malate are two of the most recommended magnesium supplements since they are both highly bioavailable in the digestive tract.

Glycine is an amino acid that your body can efficiently utilize to build protein. It also plays a vital role in your body's natural energy production and the healthy functions of your central nervous and immune systems. Furthermore, magnesium has a calming effect on your brain in the presence of glycine. When magnesium is bound to glycine, the organic glycine molecules protect the inorganic magnesium molecules from adverse interactions with other substances. The result is one of the most highly bioavailable forms of magnesium, which is also one of the gentlest supplements on the stomach.

Malic acid or malate is an acid that naturally occurs in many sour fruits, such as apricots, cherries and strawberries, and is responsible for their characteristic tart flavors. Malate is also a key component in your body’s natural energy production. Magnesium malate is an excellent choice of supplement for supporting optimal joint health, mobility and flexibility. Magnesium malate is also highly bioavailable since the ionic bonds between magnesium and malic acid are easily broken.

Chief Originals® Magnesium Glycinate Powder combines magnesium and glycine to support overall health in a highly bioavailable format. Each two-gram serving of our lab-verified powder supplement delivers a whopping 500 mg of pure magnesium to support healthy muscle performance, relaxation and overall health.

Chief Originals® Magnesium Glycinate Powder contains no gluten, GMOs or any major food allergens. It is also vegan and is extensively lab tested for glyphosate, heavy metals, and microbiology.

Chief Originals® Magnesium Comfort combines pure magnesium and malic acid to naturally promote healthy energy levels, encourage muscle relaxation and recovery after exertion, and support healthy metabolism and joint health. This pure, lab-verified formula contains no gluten, fillers or GMOs and is completely non-China and vegan. You can trust that our 100% magnesium malate powder is thoroughly lab tested for glyphosate, heavy metals, and microbiology.

Here are a few suggestions for maximizing your intake of Chief Originals® Magnesium Glycinate Powder and Magnesium Comfort:

Take either powder alongside food items rich in calcium and B complex vitamins – especially vitamin B6 – to improve absorption. If such superfoods are not available, vitamin supplements can serve as suitable replacements.

When taking calcium supplements alongside magnesium supplements, it is recommended to follow a ratio of two parts calcium for every one part magnesium. Magnesium can also help both minerals function more effectively.

For a good night’s rest, you can take magnesium glycinate powder at night just before bed. For this purpose, it is best paired with food items or beverages that support deep and restful sleep.

If you want to take advantage of magnesium’s ability to support healthy energy levels, you can pair it with a stimulant early in the day. Protein shakes and smoothies work best just before a challenging workout. For activities that require intense mental focus and concentration, we recommend adding either of our magnesium powder supplements to a rejuvenating cup of coffee or tea.
