I will look it up, but I'd be interested to hear your ideas about it as well. Also, what are the benefits of chelation? The label on the bottle of magnesium glycinate says, "Chelated Magnesium."Glycine is a co-agonist of the NMDA receptor that glutamate often binds to. As I recall, increasing activity at this receptor might promote an increase in certain cognitive functions. Glycine is being tested as an add-on to antipsychotic meds for schizophrenia.
