A systematic review by Boyle et al. (2017, PubMed 28445426) across 18 studies found magnesium supplementation significantly reduced anxiety and stress measures in mildly anxious adults. Each bottle contains 120 capsules (60 servings), NZ-manufactured, and selected with clinical guidance from Dr. Jun, Senior Chiropractor at Auckland Wellness Centre in Rosedale. Magnesium Glycinate 1200mg compound, 30% elemental 360mg elemental Mg Magnesium Amino Acid Chelate 200mg compound, 20% elemental 40mg elemental Mg 400mg Total elemental magnesium per serving, at the upper end of the NZ NRV (320–420mg/day for adults) Why Muscle Relax+ Magnesium is one of the most under-recognised nutrients in musculoskeletal and recovery health. It is essential for more than 300 enzymatic reactions in the body, including muscle contraction and relaxation, nerve signal transmission, ATP energy production, and protein synthesis. In clinical practice, muscle tension, poor sleep, and stress often arrive together, and magnesium deficiency is a common thread connecting them. The problem with most magnesium supplements is form. Magnesium oxide, the dominant form in many supermarket products, has a bioavailability of approximately 4%. Magnesium Glycinate, the primary form in this formula, is chelated with glycine and has significantly superior absorption and gastrointestinal tolerance. The glycine component itself also has a calming neurological effect, which adds to the sleep and stress support profile. 400mg elemental magnesium per serving: At the upper end of the NZ NRV (320–420mg/day for adults) to meaningfully address dietary gaps Highly bioavailable glycinate form: Magnesium Glycinate provides significantly better absorption than oxide or standard citrate forms, with excellent gastrointestinal tolerance Dual-form precision: 1200mg Magnesium Glycinate (360mg elemental) + 200mg Magnesium Amino Acid Chelate (40mg elemental) = 400mg total elemental Mg per serving 60-serving bottle: 120 capsules, a 2-month supply at the recommended dose Free from: Gluten, dairy, soy, shellfish, nuts. Clear vegetable capsule.

The evidence below is drawn from systematic reviews and meta-analyses, the highest tier of clinical evidence available. Boyle NB, Lawton C, Dye L. (2017)"The Effects of Magnesium Supplementation on Subjective Anxiety and Stress, A Systematic Review." Nutrients, 9(5), 429.Key finding: Magnesium supplementation significantly reduced subjective anxiety and stress measures in mildly anxious adults across 18 randomised controlled trials. This was a systematic review, the strongest evidence tier. The effect was consistent across diverse adult populations and supplementation protocols.doi.org/10.3390/nu9050429 | PubMed ID: 28445426 Schuster P, et al. (2025)"Magnesium supplementation and sleep quality: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials." Sleep Medicine Reviews.Key finding: Magnesium supplementation improved sleep quality outcomes (as measured by PSQI scores) compared to placebo in randomised controlled trials. The meta-analysis confirmed benefit across multiple adult populations.Note: Full DOI pending confirmation.

NZ Nutrient Reference Values, Magnesium context:The NZ NRV for magnesium is 320mg/day (women 19+) and 420mg/day (men 19+). Muscle Relax+ provides 400mg elemental magnesium per serving, at the upper end of the NRV range, appropriate for adults with dietary gaps. Magnesium is found in green vegetables, nuts, seeds, and whole grains; many people consuming processed food patterns do not achieve the NRV through diet alone. How to Use Muscle Relax+ Take 2 capsules daily. This delivers the full 400mg elemental magnesium serving (1200mg Glycinate + 200mg Amino Acid Chelate). Evening is the preferred time. Magnesium Glycinate's glycine component has a naturally calming profile, taking it 30–60 minutes before bed aligns with sleep support goals. Daytime use is also effective for muscle and stress support. With or without food. Glycinate form is gentle on the stomach and does not require food. If you have a sensitive GI tract, taking with a light meal is an option. Consistency matters. Magnesium supplementation effects on sleep and stress accumulate over weeks, not days. Build it into your nightly routine. Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Keep out of reach of children. Do not exceed 2 capsules daily unless directed by a healthcare professional. Who Muscle Relax+ Is For Magnesium deficiency shows up in clinical practice as a cluster of interrelated complaints: muscle tension, disrupted sleep, elevated stress response, and post-exercise soreness. Muscle Relax+ was developed for patients where these complaints overlap. Adults with muscle tension and tightness, particularly those with desk-bound lifestyles, physical labour roles, or heavy training loads Adults with disrupted sleep quality who want a non-sedating nutritional approach to sleep preparation Stress-affected adults seeking nutritional support for nervous system function and stress resilience Post-exercise recovery: Active adults and athletes using Muscle Relax+ to support muscle tissue repair and reduce next-day tension after training ACC rehabilitation patients with muscle spasm, tension, or sleep disruption as part of their recovery pattern Muscle Relax+ is not a replacement for medical treatment. If you are managing a diagnosed sleep disorder or anxiety condition, consult your GP or healthcare provider before adding any supplement. Safety and Contraindications Free from: Gluten, dairy, soy, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts. Clear vegetable capsule shell. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Kidney disease: Magnesium is renally excreted. If you have kidney disease or impaired kidney function, consult your doctor before taking any magnesium supplement. Medications: Magnesium can interact with certain antibiotics, diuretics, and heart medications. Consult your GP if you are on prescription medication. High-dose caution: At 400mg elemental magnesium, Muscle Relax+ is at the upper end of the NRV. Do not combine with other magnesium supplements without calculating your total elemental intake. Pregnancy and breastfeeding: Consult your healthcare provider before use. Magnesium is generally considered safe in pregnancy, but confirm with your GP or midwife. Under 18: Not intended for children or adolescents. Keep out of reach of children. Digestive sensitivity: Glycinate form is well-tolerated; however, very high magnesium intake can cause loose stools. Start with 1 capsule for a few days if you have a sensitive GI system. Why WIIP Over Alternatives Magnesium supplements are ubiquitous, every pharmacy and supermarket in New Zealand carries them. The difference between products lies almost entirely in which form of magnesium is used and at what dose. Here is what sets Muscle Relax+ apart: Glycinate form, not oxide: Magnesium oxide, the dominant form in low-cost products, has approximately 4% bioavailability. Muscle Relax+ uses Glycinate chelate, significantly more bioavailable, with superior GI tolerance. 400mg elemental magnesium per serving: At the upper end of the NZ NRV, delivering a meaningful dose rather than a token amount. Full transparency on form and dose: Exact compound amounts listed (1200mg Glycinate + 200mg Amino Acid Chelate) with elemental percentages. Not a proprietary blend. Clinician-developed: Selected with guidance from Dr. Jun, based on what works for musculoskeletal and recovery patients in clinical practice over 12+ years. NZ-manufactured: Produced in New Zealand.

Frequently Asked Questions How much elemental magnesium is in Muscle Relax+ per serving? Muscle Relax+ provides 400mg of elemental magnesium per 2-capsule serving. This comes from two sources: 1200mg Magnesium Glycinate (yielding 360mg elemental magnesium at 30% elemental) plus 200mg Magnesium Amino Acid Chelate (yielding 40mg elemental magnesium at 20% elemental). Total: 360mg + 40mg = 400mg elemental magnesium per serving. Why is Magnesium Glycinate better than Magnesium Oxide? Magnesium Oxide has approximately 4% bioavailability, meaning most of it is not absorbed and instead passes through the GI tract, often causing loose stools at high doses. Magnesium Glycinate is chelated with glycine, resulting in significantly higher absorption and excellent GI tolerance at therapeutic doses. The glycine component also has a calming neurological effect, which adds to the muscle relaxation and sleep quality support profile of this formula. When is the best time to take Muscle Relax+? Evening, 30–60 minutes before bed, is the most popular time, the glycine in Magnesium Glycinate has a calming effect that aligns with sleep preparation. However, daytime use is equally valid for muscle tension and stress support. The most important variable is consistency, take it at the same time every day. Is Muscle Relax+ suitable for vegans? Yes. Muscle Relax+ uses a clear vegetable capsule shell and is free from all animal products. It is suitable for vegetarians and vegans. It is also free from gluten, dairy, soy, shellfish, and nuts. Can I take Muscle Relax+ if I have kidney problems? If you have kidney disease or reduced kidney function, consult your doctor before taking any magnesium supplement, including Muscle Relax+. Magnesium is excreted via the kidneys, and impaired kidney function may affect how the body handles supplemental magnesium. How long will one bottle last? One bottle of Muscle Relax+ contains 120 capsules, a 60-day supply at the recommended dose of 2 capsules per day. Current batch (2TZA200927) expires 01 September 2027.

WIIP is a supplement brand of Auckland Wellness Centre. aucklandwellness.co.nz | wiip.co.nz Frequently asked questions about Muscle Relax+ How much elemental magnesium per serving? WIIP Muscle Relax+ delivers 400mg of elemental magnesium per 2-capsule serving, 360mg from 1,200mg of magnesium glycinate plus 40mg from 200mg of amino acid chelate. This is 100% of the typical daily recommended intake. Why glycinate and not citrate or oxide? Firoz & Graber (2001, PubMed 11794633) showed glycinate and citrate are 4-9x more bioavailable than oxide. Glycinate is gentler on the stomach and better absorbed for sleep and muscle support. Oxide has the lowest bioavailability and is best avoided for these applications. Will magnesium help me sleep? A 2025 systematic review (Schuster et al., PubMed 39615118) found magnesium supplementation improved subjective sleep quality across multiple RCTs. Many WIIP customers report easier sleep onset. Take 1-2 hours before bed for sleep applications. Can I take Muscle Relax+ for muscle cramps after exercise? Yes, magnesium supports normal muscle function and contraction. Active New Zealanders use Muscle Relax+ post-exercise. The 2017 review (Zhang et al., PMC7468791) found magnesium supplementation improved exercise recovery markers. Is it safe to take daily? Yes for most healthy adults. The TGA upper limit for magnesium supplementation is 350mg/day for chronic use, but elemental magnesium from food + supplement above this is safe in most cases. If you have kidney disease or take diuretics, consult your healthcare professional.
