What is Optimal Magnesium?
Optimal Magnesium is a magnesium supplement from Seeking Health containing two Albion®-trademarked forms of magnesium: Magnesium Lysinate-Glycinate Chelate and Di-Magnesium Malate. Each capsule provides 150 mg of elemental magnesium across these two forms in a single vegetarian capsule.
Most magnesium supplements use forms such as magnesium oxide, citrate, or chloride. Optimal Magnesium instead uses chelated forms, where magnesium is bound to amino acids (lysine and glycine) and to malate (malic acid). Albion® is a registered trademark of Balchem Corporation, a manufacturer specialising in mineral chelate chemistry. The formulation is free from common allergens and is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
Why This Formulation / How It Works
Most magnesium supplements on the market use magnesium oxide, citrate, or sulfate. Optimal Magnesium uses two Albion®-certified chelated forms instead. In chelated minerals, the mineral is bound to organic molecules, in this case the amino acids lysine and glycine, and malic acid (malate). Albion® chelate technology is a widely referenced mineral bonding process used across practitioner-grade supplement lines.
Magnesium is found throughout the body, with the highest concentrations in bone, skeletal muscle, and soft tissue. It functions as a cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions, including those involved in ATP synthesis pathways, protein synthesis, and DNA replication. Malate is a compound found in the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle). Glycine is an amino acid present in connective tissue and functions as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system.
When to Consider This
This is a practitioner-grade mineral supplement containing Albion® magnesium lysinate-glycinate chelate and di-magnesium malate. Speak with your healthcare provider about whether it’s appropriate for you.

Common Questions
How does the lysinate-glycinate chelate form differ from magnesium glycinate?
Magnesium Lysinate-Glycinate Chelate is an Albion®-trademarked form where magnesium is bound to both lysine and glycine. Standard magnesium glycinate binds magnesium to glycine only. This product contains both the lysinate-glycinate chelate and a separate malate-bound form in the one capsule.
Is this formulation suitable for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. The capsule shell is hypromellose (vegetarian), and the formulation contains no animal-derived ingredients. Seeking Health lists it as suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
Does this product need to be taken with food?
The manufacturer states it can be taken with or without food, any time of day or night.
