Magnesium 120 mg, 90 capsules

Magnesium is one of the body's most important minerals, involved in more than 300 enzyme-controlled metabolic reactions. Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the human body and is found in all cells. It contributes, among other things, to reducing tiredness and fatigue, to the normal function of the nervous system and to maintaining normal bone structure, muscle function and energy metabolism. Of all the magnesium we have in our body, approximately 25 percent is found in muscle tissue and approximately 60 percent in our bones.

Holistic triple magnesium formulation - optimal absorption

In order for magnesium, like many other minerals, to be absorbed from the intestine into the blood, the magnesium compound must be able to dissolve so that free magnesium ions are formed in the intestine. If it is a magnesium compound that is tightly bound, it will not be able to dissolve and therefore not be absorbed as easily. Magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide and magnesium carbonate are examples of forms of magnesium that are very difficult to dissolve into free ions, which often means that you do not get any magnesium effect in the body even though the product contains a lot of magnesium.
Examples of magnesium forms that are easily absorbed include magnesium lactate, magnesium malate and magnesium citrate. Magnesium that is bound to these forms easily releases from its carrier molecule and then becomes a free magnesium ion that can be absorbed and utilized by the body. Holistic Magnesium is specially designed to ensure maximum absorption in the body. The different forms also work synergistically to optimize the effect.

Why should I eat magnesium?

Our daily need for magnesium is 280 mg for women and 350 mg for men, but certain groups, such as people who exercise hard, experience high levels of stress or are elderly, may have an increased need. Magnesium is one of the minerals that is first consumed when we are stressed, and our body needs magnesium to be able to recover mentally and physically. In addition to physical or emotional stress, the intake of caffeine, alcohol, diuretics and certain medications can also cause us to lose certain minerals, especially magnesium. Unlike calcium, magnesium has no storage depot in the body. Therefore, it is important to replenish daily. Magnesium deficiency can manifest itself in many ways, such as muscle cramps or twitching, fatigue and poor sleep quality.
