Good form of Magnesium, but hard to take it. Unpleasant taste and aftertaste. When never order powdered form again, once finished will order pills only.

Tastes like fish and doesn’t dissolve well. Waste of money

Didnt expect it to have such a bad after taste... Would not recommend

This is one of the worst tasting supplements you’ll ever experience. I cannot speak for the quality of the nutritional value, but it tastes absolutely rancid.

Bad taste. Even with honey, it is hard to drink

I want to set the record straight about this product because I see a lot of negative reviews predicated upon the flavor. First of all, not everything thats good for you is going to taste good. Thats just part of life. Second - this stuff really doesn't even taste that bad. In fact, Magnesium Chloride tastes worse. No magnesium product in powder form that you add to water tastes good folks, unless its mixed with a bunch of artificial flavorings - which you DON'T want. The only way to bypass the flavor is to take it in capsules, which in my opinion: is not only much more expensive than buying a in bulk powdered form, but not as effective. Magnesium seems to work best when its mixed and dissolved in liquid. I take a teaspoon of this in my coffee in the morning, and an additional teaspoon at night. I don't complain about the taste, because I know its good for me! Wouldn't you rather do whats best for your health, even if it is mildly uncomfortable? I know I would! We live in a society where we are driven by our tastes buds and not our bodies dire need for real nutrition. As a culture we often neglect health foods because of how our palate has been programmed for nothing but junk. This magnesium tastes strongly like the amino acid glycine in its isolated form. Aside from the strong glycine flavor which is very sweet, there is a very slight fishy smell and flavor. This smell and flavor is not an indicator that this is a bad or rancid product. This is just what pure magnesium bisglycinate tastes and smells like! I love this stuff and it makes me feel amazing and helps with my anxiety and memory. I actually enjoy the flavor! If you find that this powder clumps in your liquid, which it will, I recommend the following: Buy a battery powered handle coffee frother. Its a little device that whips coffee at a high velocity. This will allow you to stir not only magnesium properly into your liquid solution - but any other hard to stir herbal or supplement powders. I give this a 5 out of 5 stars. If you have a weak stomach, I can see how you would not like this. Personally, I come from the perspective of " If its good for me and will help me have a bigger life - who cares what it tastes like. " You can easily slam a teaspoon of this stuff down. Compared to other magnesium products this is not only incredibly cost effective ( under 10 bucks ) but it works wonderfully and I feel like this stuff absorbs much better than the magnesium oxides, citrates, carbonates, malates, etc. The only other form of magnesium that I find works as well is Food grade magnesium chloride. A+ Product. I love the NOW foods brand. They deliver quality products and low prices.

Very happy for the price to actual supplement ratio. Lasts me nearly 8 months for less than $30AU. Worth it for how it makes me feel. Also for you babies who cannot stand the taste. I honestly cannot see why people are bother by the taste. It's fine. It's honestly mild compared to other supplements I've tried. Thank the gods it doesn't taste as bad as I've tasted. Anyway I at least understand since mum can't stand it either. But tolerates it with standard orange juice. It's probably a good thing to taste it anyway to prove it is what it is... The only time I've had Magnesium glycinate that is "foul" was out of cheap capsules from the supermarket that I tried dissolving. NOW's one taste brilliant in comparison.

Magnesium glycinate is a good form of magnesium but citric acid is highly dangerous for some people and unfortunately I'm one of them. If you have sensitive stomach be careful with this product. Look for a product with no ingredients. Even caps with tons of ingredients are way safer than this product.

Getting the correct info on any supplement is a tough call. Even more so with magnesium. So m any different types, one does this, another does that. Few staff in shops can give you good knowledge either. So I was reading some advice on Twitter, of all places, and was talking with a guy who recommended this form. Bisglycinate. If you go on youtube there's a number of ahem, professionals in the vitamin and health game who also break down the differing types. So it seems this is one of the best. It's in powder form so you need to measure it out. I use it in a large glass of water mid morning after breakfast. I'm in my 50's, exercise daily, and eat well. I have noticed less fatigue after taking this for a while now. The only other supplement I take is Olive Leaf Extract, liquid Berry flavour. 1000mg vitamin C + zinc + vitamin D. I recommend this should you need an overall magnesium supplement.
