NOW Foods Supplements, Magnesium Bisglycinate Powder, Enzyme Function*, Nervous System Support*, 8-Ounce

Pros: Works like a dream, 2 tsps a day (one in morning, one before bed) and I am so calm and sleep like a baby. Super cheap. Only one filler.Cons: Disgusting tasting, like sweet slightly-off skim milk, have to dilute in big glass of water and drink quickly. Has a filler not listed on this page, citric acid. Doesn’t dissolve quickly but I just gulp it down.

For years, I purchased magnesium bisglycinate from Thorne, but when they doubled the price of their already very expensive product and cut the amount of product to what looked to me like more than half, I turned to Now foods. Before purchasing their magnesium, I read the reviews, and the reviews were full of people talking about how terrible this stuff tastes – one of the more colorful descriptions was that it taste like baking soda with Asian fish sauce. But please let me assure you it doesn't taste that bad! There's a very mild aftertaste a bit like the taste of Stevia, but it is no big deal. Please don't pass up.an excellent, effective – It ends my heart palpitations, and helps me sleep – and extremely reasonably priced product – $14 for 8 ounces as compared to Thorne's 6.5 ounces for $50 – because of concerns about the taste!

Normally I love this brand but I bought this magnesium specifically for GERD which means I can't have citric acid. The product photos CLEARLY shows "Other Ingredients: none" on the bottle. Imagine my horror in consuming it and finding out there is actually citric acid in it.

Just add Milo’s lemonade or whatever. Thank me later. Because I swear at first I was going to throw it all away. Effectiveness? 10/10 helps soothe and calm everything.

I got this for its bio-avalability, quality, and gentleness on the stomach. Plus, Now Foods is a brand I trust.The taste takes some getting used to but I just chug it down. A couple of things to consider:• You can mix it in juice, but be careful which kind. I put it in Concord grape juice and I thought I was going to get sick from the smell and taste. It works well for me in frozen apple juice concentrate.• It dissolves better in warm water if you mix it well. Now, I mix it in a little warm water, stir it up, block my nose and chug it down. Lol. I can tolerate it without blocking my nose but it's not the tastiest supplement.• You're not really going to find quality magnesium powder without a bad taste. Its magnesium.• From the first night, I started sleeping better and it regulated my bowels.

The taste of this is really gross. Like others have said, a bit fishy. I might return to the Designs for Health Magnesium Glycinate Powder even though it is substantially more expensive because it tastes fine, even good.

I love NOW brand - they make honest, good quality supplements. Just so you know, the picture of the label online says "Other ingredients: None," but the product I received contains citric acid. They fixed the problem and refunded me. Thanks, NOW
