Ninety vegetable capsules of magnesium in its glycinate form — a five-item ingredient list and a three-capsule daily serving.
Highlights
✓
The form is named: magnesium glycinate, magnesium bound to the amino acid glycine. It is one of several forms magnesium is sold in — oxide, citrate, glycinate and others — and a listing that names its form lets you compare like with like.
✓
Five ingredients in all: magnesium (from magnesium glycinate), a hypromellose capsule, magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide and rice flour. Nothing animal-derived is listed, and the supplier marks it vegetarian and vegan.
✓
The one figure in the text is ambiguous. The ingredient line reads “Magnesium (from 2.500mg Magnesium Glycinate)”. That most likely means 2,500 mg of magnesium glycinate, but the listing does not say whether that is per capsule or per three-capsule serving — and it does not state the elemental magnesium it yields, which is the number that actually compares across brands.
✓
Published suggested use is three capsules once daily, or as directed by your healthcare professional. That is three capsules to swallow every day — worth knowing if you dislike pills — and servings per container is not printed.
✓
Made in the USA, with the label’s consult-a-physician caution naming pregnancy, nursing, under-18s and known medical conditions, and a do-not-exceed line.
This is a single-mineral product, so it sits apart from Minimo’s multi-nutrient formulas: the Complete Multivitamin + Immunity Boost already lists magnesium (as magnesium oxide), so if you take that, check the combined amount before adding this on top. Magnesium supplements are also known to interact with some prescription medicines, which is one more reason the label’s consult line is worth following.
Minimo describes the formula as designed to support muscle and nerve function. Its marketing copy goes further, making stress, sleep, heart-rhythm, bone-density and digestive claims and stating that “up to 70% of people may be magnesium deficient”; we have not repeated those here. The FDA has not evaluated them, this is not a treatment for any condition, and whether you need extra magnesium at all is a question for a clinician. The rest of the supplements range sits alongside it.
