It’s the bare minimum to prevent deficiency, not support optimal health. The form of magnesium matters. Many supplements use magnesium oxide, which has very low absorption and can limit results. Magnesium glycinate is one of the best forms, with high absorption and better tolerance for the digestive system. Only about 1% of magnesium is found in the blood, making deficiency difficult to detect with standard blood tests. An RBC magnesium test is slightly better, but still not fully accurate. To support healthy magnesium levels, take 300–400 mg of magnesium glycinate a few times per day. This can help support blood pressure, reduce palpitations, and improve sleep.
