Just purchased a few days ago at $25.95 in an attempt to remedy my horrendous sleep after starting a ketogenic diet, apparently Magnesium Glycinate helps for that, here's hoping.

Seems they're matching Woolworths special price

Powder also available $17.50 (or $15.75 Sub & Save)

Mod: Deal reverted & re-expired, please post Woolworths powder separately/as a new deal if you wish.

    I actually really like this, bought multiple times. Helps with sore legs and sleep (for me and the gf too!)

      I find Magnesium Taurate to be good for sleep as well.

    • dws on 07/03/2025 - 13:13

      magnesium glycinate saved my legs too, after intense cardio sessions I always used to cramp, but now my legs just get sore haha. Actually insane.

  • swamp potato on 07/03/2025 - 11:18

    Do people like the powder or pill more?

    • cse1024 on 07/03/2025 - 12:05

      I've tried both. Capsules were a bit cheaper at the time i purchased, and more convenient. That said, I enjoyed the powder drink and I felt it worked faster in making me sleepy before bed.

  • kelssy11 on 07/03/2025 - 11:21

    Also what's the expiry date for these ones?

    I am keto and confirm this stuff is great for sleep. I take 2 a day (plus D3/K2).

    • whyisave on 07/03/2025 - 14:13

      When do you take your D3 + K2 combination,
      ie. morning or night ?
      ( before or after meals? )

      • bgazer on 07/03/2025 - 14:39
        +2

        It's my understanding that D3 is best taken in the morning as it can interfere with melatonin production if taken at night. It's also best to take D3 as well as K2 with a meal which has some fat.

        • whyisave on 07/03/2025 - 15:00

          Thanks for that.

          I was taking D3 at night !

    Helps with cramps after legday. Sleep kinda, don't have heaps of coffees and then say this doesn’t help with sleep mkayyy

  • dajackal on 07/03/2025 - 11:40

    Are these easy to swallow? I find capsules a bit tougher to swallow than tablets

    Wouldn't this be a better deal? More magnesium, 200 tablets and cheaper with a subscription.

    • w33w00 on 07/03/2025 - 11:46

      Different type of Magnesium. Apparently they all have different rates of absorption, with Magnesium Glycinate being the best/easiest for the body to absorb. Also, Magnesium Oxide is an osmotic laxative, so uhhh your system will certainly be clear after a round of it!

    • Balls on 07/03/2025 - 11:47

      dont go near this or any form of mg oxide, worst form

    • frewer on 07/03/2025 - 13:53

      Mag Oxide has the lowest bioavailability, also taking synthetic B6 in long term will have a deadly side effect

  • RedSky1 on 07/03/2025 - 12:05

    Not a bad deal..

    I'd also recommend Mega Magnesium, similar price per tablet at the moment, with extra ingredients:

    https://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au/buy/80215/ethical-nutrie…

    not affiliated - I just take it daily, good for sleep and no cramps.

    • bgazer on 07/03/2025 - 12:23
      +2

      Be careful with that. It includes the synthetic form of Vit B6 (Pyridoxine) at 16.6mg per tablet which can lead to nerve damage if taken over an extended period.

      • dajackal on 07/03/2025 - 13:33

        I bought this one with 5mg Vit B6 which is already 294% of daily value. Should I stop taking them?

        https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B0BS8MSHVW

        • bgazer on 07/03/2025 - 13:50
          +1

          That’s up to you. B6 is naturally found in many foods, so it’s the total consumption from all sources that’s most important.
          Many supplements have 25mg or even 50mg, so if it were me, rather than discarding it, given that it's 5mg, I’d be inclined to take one every second or third day until the bottle is empty.
          For years, I’ve been taking a multi b with 25mg of the active form of B6 (Pyridoxal phosphate (PLP, pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, P5P)) a few times a week without any issues.

          PS

          The NIH has set the upper limit for vitamin B6 of 12 mg/day for all adults.

      • Chickenleg on 07/03/2025 - 14:15

        So the ones to look for are mag glycinate but no Pyridoxine? Would this one be ok? Starting to get a bit confused haha

      • RedSky1 on 07/03/2025 - 15:00
        +1

        I think you are scaremongering there a bit, 16.6mg is very low - many other tablets have far more than this

        There are no well-documented cases of neuropathy at this dose, especially if taken as part of a balanced diet.

        Don't get me wrong I don't need the B6 either really but overall it's still a good daily for magnesium + a few low dose extras

        • bgazer on 07/03/2025 - 15:32
          +1

          I did say over an extended period.
          I agree, 16mg is not alarming compared to the amount in other brands, but I personally would be wary if it were to be taken daily over a year or more.
          I have come across individuals on the internet reporting problems with taking 10mg daily over 2 years – everyone is different though.
          B6 is not excreted fully like other Vit Bs and has a half-life of around a month in the blood.
          The TGA now also requires that B6 in daily doses over 10mg must have a label warning about the risk of peripheral neuropathy.

    Glycine has a nice sweet taste, so I add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon to tea or coffee, etc. (either on its own or as Magnesium glycinate).
    240 gms of the powder for $15.75 is a bargain and I was looking at purchasing it until I found a list of the other ingredients:
    citric acid
    colloidal anhydrous silica
    Flavour
    Guar Gum
    isomalt
    maltodextrin
    sucralose
    Why must they pollute it with all that other junk when it tastes great without it.

      'Dr' Berg is a chiropractor and scientologist.

      Also a grifter and peddler of pseudo science.

      The pills linked to here are Bergs and of d3/k2 (allegedly) whereas entire thread is related to magnesium.

        Well actually no a lot of his research is not just coming from him its coming from many other doctors, if you look at the research instead of not understanding it, it actually makes lot of since they have actual oncologists in the U.S. that will treat cancer with a combination of chemo and high dose of vitinum D there is a lot of facts that prove Vitamin D is highly beneficial to the body. You don’t need to taking it from Dr Berg. A lot of what he says is backed by a lot of actual Doctors that know nutrition as well as the medical research behind it. Also if you look up the ingredients you will find its natural with no fillers or chemicals, unlike this product on sale in this ozbargin post.

      Might just mean your sleep issues are caused by something else, or this doesn't work well.

      • Rabbii on 07/03/2025 - 13:02

        Yeah. I know watches arnt the best metric to track sleep but my sleep scores were always low on mag-glyc.
        Im now on valerian root and it seems to be improving.
        I stacked both and had horrendous sleeps.

    • frewer on 07/03/2025 - 13:03

      How much you took ? I took 300mg-400mg and it knock me out in less than 10mins. Provides that my light environment is up to standard, aka no light 1h b4 sleep, proper sun expose during the day.

      • Rabbii on 07/03/2025 - 13:14

        400mg. I can easily fall asleep. Staying asleep is my problem.

  • frewer on 07/03/2025 - 12:57

    100 tables x 100mg = 10g of Mag? Am I doing the maths right?

    This one is cheaper at $15 each . 240g total, at 6g ( 300mg of Mag ), equals to 12g of Mag per container.

  • 8azinga on 07/03/2025 - 13:05

    They call them high strength but 500mg is a pretty standard size.
    Not sure how they calculated 100mg elemental as it should be around 14% elemental magnesium for magnesium glycinate. This can sometimes mean they buffer the magnesium with another form but dont declare it but dont know if that is the case for this brand

  • FallaM on 07/03/2025 - 13:09

    Basically the only thing I seem to be extremely deficient in unless I keep on top of supplementing it. Literally everything in my life improves once I start supplementing magnesium again.

    • jussie2000 on 07/03/2025 - 20:28

      I seem to be the same. Once I stop I can feel the sore back coming back immediately. Also during pms times I take 2 and it helps.

  • wearytraveller on 07/03/2025 - 16:18

    The other thing about this product is it's a form of magnesium that's easy on the gut, if you have IBS or something similar, this one's the go.

  • BlueDiesel on 07/03/2025 - 18:28

    Mrs. and I (on pretty much Carnivore) take it (different brand).
    Works a treat. I take 3-4 before bed and it makes me fall asleep like a baby.

    I used to take Blackmores Sleep well or what it was named, with Valerian.
    Never slept as quick/good as with this stuff and also with the Magnesium you don't have a hard time getting up next day, compared to the Valerian.
