Product Description
Magnesium is an essential mineral that makes up the center of every adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecule and every cell of the body. ATP, the molecule that provides energy for nearly all metabolic functions, exists primarily as a complex with magnesium. As a cofactor (helper molecule) for hundreds of enzymes, magnesium is needed for energy production by metabolism of carbohydrates and fats.
Magnesium has a wide range of biological functions, including supporting bowel regularity, supporting a calm mood and healthy sleep, and for the normal functioning of the heart, cells, nerves, muscles, and bones.
Energy creation: Assists in the conversion of food into energy
Protein formation: Assists in the synthesis of new proteins from amino acids
Calm mood: Low levels of magnesium are linked with increased risk of depression, supplementing may reduce symptoms
Nervous system regulation: Assists in the regulation of neurotransmitters that send messages throughout your brain and nervous system
Muscle health and movement: Moves blood sugar into the muscles and disposes of lactate, which can build up in muscles and cause pain; plays an important part in the contraction and relaxation of muscles
Bone health: Assists in bone structure and mineralization
Magnesium citrate is an easily absorbed form of magnesium supplement. In this form, magnesium is bound to citric acid, a large molecule, so there is a smaller amount of elemental magnesium per capsule.
