MagActive Magnesium Night Powder 30 Servings by Metagenics is a mixed berry flavored evening powder formula combining highly absorbable magnesium glycinate complex with passionflower and saffron extracts to support sleep quality, nervous system relaxation, and healthy sleep-wake cycle regulation.
Key Benefits of Magnesium Glycinate, Passionflower and Saffron Ingredients
-
Magnesium Bisglycinate and Citrate Complex (210 mg per Serving) - Delivers magnesium in two highly bioavailable forms, with magnesium bisglycinate offering up to 4x better absorption compared to standard magnesium oxide, supporting muscle relaxation and nervous system calm before sleep
-
Passionflower Extract (60 mg, Passiflora incarnata) - A traditionally used botanical that supports the body's response to overstimulation and promotes a calm, relaxed state conducive to restful sleep
-
Saffron Stigma Extract (14 mg, Crocus sativus) - Supports healthy mood balance and promotes a positive sleep-wake cycle through its activity on neurotransmitter pathways associated with relaxation and sleep onset
-
3-in-1 Sleep Support - The combined formula is designed to support deeper sleep, more time asleep, and reduced sleep disturbance through complementary mechanisms across magnesium, botanical, and neurotransmitter pathways
-
Nervous System Relaxation Support - Magnesium is essential for normal nerve signal regulation and supports the transition from physiological arousal to a calm, restful state in the evening
-
Muscle Relaxation Support - Adequate magnesium status supports healthy muscle relaxation and reduces physical tension that can interfere with sleep onset and quality
-
Mixed Berry Powder Format - Dissolves easily in water for a palatable evening drink, supporting consistent nightly use without the need to swallow multiple capsules
Why This Formula Matters
Sleep quality is closely linked to magnesium status, as magnesium plays a direct role in regulating the nervous system pathways that govern the transition to sleep, yet magnesium insufficiency is widespread in adults. MagActive Magnesium Night pairs a high-absorption magnesium bisglycinate complex with two evidence-informed botanicals, passionflower and saffron, that address distinct aspects of sleep physiology including overstimulation response and sleep-wake cycle regulation. This multi-mechanism approach supports more comprehensive evening relaxation and sleep quality than magnesium alone, in a convenient powder format designed for nightly use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes magnesium bisglycinate better absorbed than other forms?
Magnesium bisglycinate is a chelated form of magnesium in which the mineral is bound to two glycine amino acid molecules. This chelation protects magnesium from competing with other minerals for absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and supports uptake through amino acid transport pathways, resulting in significantly higher bioavailability compared to inorganic forms such as magnesium oxide.
How do passionflower and saffron support sleep?
Passionflower has a traditional history of use for supporting the body's response to overstimulation and promoting a calm nervous system state. Saffron stigma extract supports healthy neurotransmitter activity associated with mood balance and sleep-wake cycle regulation. Together, they complement the muscle and nervous system relaxation effects of magnesium to support a more complete evening wind-down.
