The manufacturer identifies three forms

The inspected capsule product description names di-magnesium malate, magnesium citrate and magnesium glycinate. That answers what the blend is; check the current Supplement Facts for elemental magnesium and serving size, and do not assume a powder or related product has the identical formula. [1]

Absorption language needs its own evidence

The manufacturer promotes multiple absorption pathways and gastrointestinal comfort. Those are supplier claims. ODS recognizes that magnesium preparations differ in absorption, but the presence of three forms alone does not show that this finished blend outperforms all alternatives or treats insomnia or anxiety. [1][2]

Compare actual exposure and tolerance

Imagine two products list the same elemental magnesium amount but different compounds. Compare those amounts and any additional ingredients, then consider tolerability and relevant medicines. More forms do not remove the possibility of diarrhea or the need for extra caution with impaired kidney function. [2]
