What is the difference between Sleep and NeuroMag® Magnesium L-threonate?Updated a month ago
We highly recommend discussing these products with your healthcare practitioner before beginning or modifying your supplement routine.
The differences and how they can complement one another:
A Smart stack (if your clinician agrees it’s appropriate):
Daytime: Neuro-Mag® (Magnesium L-threonate) to build brain magnesium levels and support memory, cognition, and mood tone during the day.* Life Extensions
Nighttime: Sleep, with Albion® chelated magnesium bisglycinate, promotes calm and relaxation.*
Why this pairing makes sense:
Different magnesium jobs: magnesium L-threonate is brain-targeted; magnesium bisglycinate is well-tolerated systemic support. Using Neuro-Mag® by day and Sleep with magnesium bisglycinate by night avoids redundancy in form while covering distinct benefits.*
Breaking it down:
- Our Sleep product: uses Albion® magnesium bisglycinate with TRAACS® chelated technology (a fully reacted chelate of magnesium + the amino acid glycine). Gentle GI tolerance and nighttime calm and relaxation support.*
- Neuro-Mag®: uses magnesium L-threonate (magnesium + L-threonic acid). Positioned for brain magnesium support and cognitive health.*
Helpful Summary of differences and why both can be beneficial:
Mg - Magnesium
SR - Sustained Release
RCT - Randomized Controlled Trial
GI - Gastrointestinal
