Capsule ShellCapsule

Generic capsule shell where the label does not specify the material. Common materials are hypromellose (HPMC) for vegetarian capsules and gelatin for traditional capsules — both are GRAS-listed and safe. Fish gelatin and pullulan variants also exist.

How to Take It

Best taken in the evening

Magnesium citrate pulls water into the bowel — mildly laxative at higher doses. Evening suits that; split the dose or switch to glycinate if it's too much.

With or without food
Space it a couple of hours from Iron and Calcium

On the label

As a dietary supplement, take 1 capsule, 1-2 times daily, with or between meals, or as directed by a health professional.

General guidance based on the ingredients, not a substitute for the label or your doctor.
