"The chlorophyll molecule consists of a central magnesium atom surrounded by a nitrogen-containing structure called a porphyrin ring." That's the leafy green connection.

I’m taking 2000 mg of magnesium l-threonate every other day - half dose in morning and other at night. My diet fills in the blanks on the other days. It helps with my sleep quality— but makes me thirsty.

To be consistent you should also have specified how much of magnesium glycinate is absorbed.

It seems like labels on these supplements have changed considerably since at least 2023. They used to say 500mg each for magnesium citrate. Then one would assume they're getting 500mg of magnesium, but they aren't. Now the labels say these exact same pills only contain a 3rd of that amount and even then, only 112mg of elemental magnesium. I feel like I've been ripped off and lied to over the last 13 years of taking them.
