Magnesium deficiency is far more common than most patients realize, and the form of magnesium matters enormously. We selected this product for its use of highly bioavailable magnesium forms that won't cause GI distress — ideal for patients dealing with muscle tension, sleep disturbances, migraines, or stress-driven depletion.
"Magnesium is one of the most common deficiencies I see, and most supplements use forms that cause more bathroom trips than benefits. Ultra Mag uses highly bioavailable forms that your body can actually absorb — making it my top recommendation for patients dealing with poor sleep, muscle tension, migraines, or everyday stress." – Staff Pharmacist
Serving Size: 2 Capsules | Servings Per Container: 60
Capsule (hypromellose and water), hydroxypropyl cellulose, ascorbyl palmitate, microcrystalline cellulose, and silica.
Take 1 to 2 capsules twice daily at or between meals, or as directed by your healthcare professional. UltraMag can be taken with or without food. Taking it in the evening is a common approach given magnesium’s well-known role in supporting relaxation and sleep quality, though timing is flexible based on your preference and provider’s guidance.
The serving size is 2 capsules, providing 250 mg of magnesium. Many people find that starting with 1 capsule twice daily and increasing gradually allows them to find a comfortable dose without any digestive adjustment period. The flexible dosing range accommodates both lighter and more therapeutic daily targets. Our pharmacists can help you think through what makes sense for your situation at (480) 887-0244.
Consult your healthcare professional before use. Individuals taking medication should discuss potential interactions with their healthcare professional. Magnesium can interact with certain antibiotics, diuretics, and other medications. Do not use if the tamper seal is damaged.
Magnesium is involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions, which is why its effects are felt across so many different areas of health. The benefits below reflect the body systems where the research is most established.
Magnesium plays a direct role in neurotransmitter balance and neuronal stabilization, which is why it’s often associated with relaxation and the management of stress. Research has examined magnesium’s effects on sleep quality, with a clinical study in elderly subjects finding that 500 mg daily for 8 weeks improved subjective sleep measures including sleep efficiency and duration, alongside increased melatonin and reduced cortisol. A post-hoc analysis of a randomized controlled trial found that 300 mg of magnesium provided meaningful clinical benefit for stress-associated mood in individuals with stress and low magnesium levels.*
Magnesium is essential for muscular contraction and neuromuscular conduction. Research has consistently linked low magnesium levels to impairments in exercise performance and muscle recovery, attributed to magnesium’s role in oxygen uptake, energy production, and ion balance. A study in college-aged subjects found that magnesium supplementation at 350 mg per day was beneficial for attenuating muscle soreness associated with a new exercise program, with a trend toward positive effects on performance as well.*
ATP, the molecule that powers all cellular metabolic processes, exists primarily as a magnesium-ATP complex, which means magnesium is functionally required for energy production at the cellular level. Magnesium also plays a role in insulin secretion and glucose regulation through its effects on pancreatic beta-cell activity. Research has found that magnesium supplementation improved fasting plasma glucose and insulin sensitivity in insulin-resistant individuals, and improved glycemic control indicators in subjects with type 2 diabetes.*
Approximately 60% of the body’s magnesium is stored in bone, where it influences the activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts and plays a role in the formation of hydroxyapatite crystals in trabecular bone. Deficiency increases osteoclast activity, which can contribute to bone loss. Research has examined magnesium supplementation across a range of doses and found benefit in terms of bone mineral density and fracture risk. A large prospective study found that higher magnesium intake had a protective effect on future fractures, with a more significant effect in women.*

The form of magnesium in a supplement matters considerably. Magnesium oxide, the most common form in budget supplements, has poor bioavailability and a high rate of osmotic diarrhea at therapeutic doses. UltraMag uses two chelated forms: magnesium lysinate glycinate, which is absorbed via peptide transport pathways and shown to be well-tolerated even in individuals with intestinal resections, and di-magnesium malate, which demonstrated significantly higher bioavailability than magnesium oxide in a randomized trial cited by the European Food Safety Authority. The combination is designed for people who need to actually raise their magnesium levels, not just supplement on paper.*
