Prices are listed prices on brand and retailer sites seen on 13 November 2026, without sale discounts. They change often and differ between shops, so confirm the current price and label before you buy. *Elemental magnesium is our estimate where the label does not state it: magnesium L-threonate is about 7% magnesium (2,000mg Magtein® = 144mg magnesium) and magnesium glycinate is about 10–14% magnesium, depending on the raw material.
🔍 How We Compared Them
- Amount of L-threonate per day. Human studies of magnesium L-threonate used about 1.5–2g a day (Liu et al., 2016). Single-tablet local products give less than that, so compare the daily amount, not just the number on the front.
- Elemental magnesium. This is the actual magnesium your body gets. L-threonate is a low-magnesium form by weight; glycinate carries more magnesium per mg.
- Cost per day. Pack price divided by the number of days it lasts at the label dose.
- Label transparency. Named manufacturer, batch number and expiry date on the bottle, and a local registration you can check.
We did not lab-test any product. A higher price does not by itself mean better quality.
📝 Notes on Each Option
Brand A: single-form L-threonate tablet
750mg magnesium L-threonate per tablet, 30 tablets, about Rs 2,490 (Rs 83 a tablet). A simple choice if you only want L-threonate. The elemental magnesium per tablet is modest because of the form.
Biolife MAGTHRO: L-threonate + glycinate in one tablet
MAGTHRO combines 300mg magnesium L-threonate with 500mg magnesium glycinate in one tablet, 30 tablets for Rs 2,250 (Rs 75 a tablet; less in 2- and 3-bottle packs). The L-threonate amount is lower than Brand A, but the glycinate adds more elemental magnesium, so the total magnesium per tablet is higher. It is made in Islamabad by Biolife Enterprises (ISO & GMP certified, Halal certified, DRAP enlisted nutraceutical), with batch number and expiry printed on every bottle. Label uses: calmness, focus and mental performance, daily vitality, energy and stamina.
Brand B and Brand C: imported Magtein® capsules
Both give the dose used in human studies (2,000mg Magtein® a day, 144mg elemental magnesium) but need 3 capsules a day. Brand B costs about Rs 167 a day; Brand C about Rs 550–608 a day. Imported stock in Pakistan also varies in freshness and authenticity, so buy from a seller who shows the batch and expiry.
✅ How to Choose
- Decide what you want magnesium for. For everyday magnesium, calm and relaxation, magnesium glycinate alone is usually enough and costs less – see MAGLY+ Magnesium Glycinate. For focus and mental performance, people choose L-threonate.
- Compare the daily dose, not the bottle. Check how many tablets or capsules a day the label asks for.
- Check elemental magnesium. Adults need about 310–420mg of magnesium a day from all sources, and the upper limit from supplements is 350mg a day (NIH Office of Dietary Supplements). Don't stack several magnesium products without advice.
- Check the label. Manufacturer name, batch number, expiry date and registration.
- Talk to your doctor first if you have kidney disease, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or take medicine.
