What is Doctor’s Best Magnesium Lysinate Glycinate?
Doctor’s Best High Absorption Magnesium is a magnesium supplement providing 100 mg of elemental magnesium per serving in the form of magnesium lysinate glycinate chelate. Each tablet uses Albion TRAACS (The Real Amino Acid Chelate System), a patented chelated mineral form in which magnesium is bound to the amino acids lysine and glycine.
This formulation is distinct from magnesium oxide and other inorganic magnesium salts. The chelated form is not buffered, meaning no additional magnesium oxide is added to increase the stated magnesium content. The product is vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free, and soy-free, manufactured by Doctor’s Best under their practitioner-oriented supplement line.
Why This Formulation / How It Works
Most magnesium supplements use inorganic forms such as magnesium oxide, which have lower solubility. This product uses magnesium lysinate glycinate chelate, a form in which magnesium is covalently bound to the amino acids lysine and glycine via Albion’s TRAACS process. Chelated minerals are characterised by a stable ring structure that differentiates them from simple magnesium salts. The formulation is unbuffered, meaning the stated 100 mg elemental magnesium per serving reflects the chelate alone without added oxide.
Albion Minerals holds GRAS status and NSF certification for their chelated mineral forms. Doctor’s Best manufactures this product as a clean-label tablet: vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free, and soy-free, with no artificial additives.
Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the human body and is found in bone, muscle, and soft tissue. It functions as a cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions, including those involved in ATP synthesis, DNA replication, and protein synthesis.
When to Consider This
This is a practitioner-grade magnesium mineral supplement in chelated tablet form. Speak with your healthcare provider about whether it’s appropriate for you.

Common Questions
How does magnesium lysinate glycinate chelate differ from magnesium oxide?
Magnesium oxide is an inorganic salt. Magnesium lysinate glycinate chelate is magnesium bound to the amino acids lysine and glycine via Albion’s TRAACS chelation process, forming a different chemical structure with distinct solubility characteristics.
Is this product suitable for vegans?
Yes. The formulation is vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free, and soy-free, with stearic acid and magnesium stearate sourced from vegetable origin.
How many servings are in a bottle of 240 tablets?
At the manufacturer’s recommended serving of 2 tablets per day, a 240-tablet bottle contains 120 servings.
Warnings & Storage
Do not use if: You have kidney disease or impaired renal function without medical supervision. Not recommended for children without healthcare provider guidance.
Cautions: Consult your healthcare provider before use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking any medications, including antibiotics (tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones) or diuretics, as magnesium may interact with these.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
