Magnesium forms, explained in plain English

Glycinate, citrate, oxide — why the form on the label matters more than the headline milligrams.

Not all magnesium is interchangeable. Glycinate is often chosen for evening routines because it is typically well tolerated. Citrate shows up in many daily formulas and may have a different digestive feel for some people. Oxide is common and inexpensive, but absorption and comfort vary. Match the form to your goal and tolerance, then look for a transparent dose — not just a large number on the front panel.
