Magnesium acts in the metabolism of carbohydrates and in energy production, helps calcium to be deposited in the bones; in the nervous system, it is necessary for the transmission of nerve impulses, regulates cellular development by controlling the processes that replace aged or worn-out cells. Magnesium citrate is a form of magnesium with high bioavailability. It is found in a soluble and organically chelated form (bound to citric acid), resulting in approximately 45% absorption. Citrates are the mineral forms with the highest bioavailability. The absorption percentage of oxides, phosphates, and sulfates is 5 to 10%; of carbonates 5 to 20%; of gluconates and lactates 20 to 25%, and of citrates 45%. Supplements based on amino acid chelates are much better tolerated by the digestive system and do not have the side effects of less complex salts, while sustained release prevents the onset of diarrhea, the most common symptom of excess magnesium intake. Magnesium citrate is absorbed four to five times more than magnesium oxide. Instructions: It is recommended to take 3 tablets a day with meals. Warnings: Do not exceed 1.5g daily. In case of renal insufficiency, acidosis, and hyperthyroidism, consult a healthcare professional. Ingredients: Per 1 tablet: Magnesium chelate (625 mg), Maltodextrin, Magnesium stearate, Bamboo fiber.
