Does Magnesium Bisglycinate cross the Blood Brain Barrier?

This form of magnesium is often recommended on the podcast as an alternative to Magnesium Threonate, but I am wondering why it is considered the next best form. From the limited information I was able to find on the internet it does not seem to cross the BBB like Threonate. As a follow up, Glycine is also recommended as a sleep supplement. 2.5g of Magnesium Bisglycinate contains 250mg of Magnesium and 2.25g of Glycine. Does this separate and have the same effect as taking 2.25g of Glycine separately? Is this killing two birds with one stone? Or is it not that simple?

Sunlight (I know!)

I literally do not see any sunlight during the waking hours. I wake up at 5am (I live in South East Asia) and get to my workplace before the sun rises. I do the ‘artificial light exposure’ by having all of my bathroom lights on and while I’m driving I have the light inside car on (yes!) and then when I get to office , the lights are on. That’s pretty much. Now question is, I’m concerned that I am not getting enough sunlight. Should I supplement? And yes, what can I take?
