Magnesium malate
Magnesium malate is an excellent choice for those experiencing fatigue because malic acid—a naturally occurring fruit acid found in most body cells—is an essential component of enzymes that play a key role in ATP synthesis and energy production. Because the ionic bonds between magnesium and malic acid are easily broken, magnesium malate is also highly soluble.
Magnesium glycinate
Magnesium glycinate (magnesium bound to glycine, a non-essential amino acid) is one of the most bioavailable and absorbable forms of magnesium, and also the least susceptible to diarrhea. It is the safest option for supplementing long-term deficiencies.
Magnesium chloride
Although magnesium chloride contains only about 12% elemental magnesium, it has an impressive absorption rate and is the best form of magnesium for cell and tissue detoxification. Furthermore, chloride (not to be confused with the toxic gas chlorine) supports kidney function and can stimulate a sluggish metabolism.
Magnesium carbonate
