Natural Factors describes this version as pure bisglycinate, non-buffered and fully chelated, which means no magnesium oxide or other salt has been mixed in to raise the number on the label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe only other ingredient is citric acid. There is no sweetener, colour or flavouring. The tub is free of dairy, gluten, soy, corn and animal products, and it is suitable for vegetarians and vegans. It carries the ISURA verified clean and non-GMO marks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe label notes that magnesium bisglycinate does not need stomach acid to be absorbed, which is one reason people choose it over other forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to take it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdults take 1 serving (2.4 g) once a day, mixed well into 250 mL of water until it has fully dissolved.
