Low Exposure Risk — Why This Product Category Matters

Supplement capsules and tablets often contain microcrystalline cellulose, titanium dioxide (a possible carcinogen), artificial colors, and other synthetic additives. Plastic supplement bottles are made from HDPE or PET plastic. The supplement industry is less regulated than pharmaceuticals.

Why We Recommend This Product

Pure Encapsulations' magnesium glycinate is one of the cleanest supplement formulations available. No artificial colors, no titanium dioxide, no synthetic binders. Hypoallergenic — free of the most common allergens.
