Overview

Pure Encapsulations Magnesium (Citrate) provides 150mg of elemental magnesium per capsule from magnesium citrate in a hypoallergenic formulation. Magnesium citrate is well-absorbed (better than oxide, though not as gentle as glycinate) and has mild osmotic laxative properties that can benefit those with constipation. Pure Encapsulations' hypoallergenic commitment means the product is free from wheat, gluten, egg, peanut, tree nuts, soy, dairy, fish, shellfish, artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, coatings, and GMOs. The 180-capsule count provides a 3-month supply at 2 capsules daily.
