Elexir PharmaMagnesium Organisk 90 pcs
A mineral for your whole body
Magnesium is essential for your muscles to function properly and can help reduce symptoms like fatigue and exhaustion. Both energy metabolism and the nervous system rely on your body's magnesium levels, and magnesium also plays a key role in maintaining healthy bones and teeth. It participates in a ton of biochemical reactions in the body and is needed to activate around 300 different enzymes! Magnesium is crucial for your body's electrolyte balance, normal cell division processes, and protein synthesis. Plus, this mineral is super important for our brain's cognitive functions. In other words, it's a powerhouse with a wide-ranging impact on various areas of the body.
Not always magnesium-rich
Great sources of magnesium in your diet include nuts, leafy greens, whole grains, almonds, beans, potatoes, fish, meat, and dairy products. However, keep in mind that chemical fertilizers can prevent plants from absorbing magnesium from the soil, leading to significant variations in magnesium content depending on the plants' origin. The absorption of magnesium can also decrease when consuming foods high in phytic acid and/or with very low protein intake. As if that weren't enough, coffee, tea, soda, and other diuretics, like certain medications, can stimulate the excretion of magnesium through urine. High alcohol consumption can also contribute to magnesium loss, potentially leading to a deficiency. There are also other factors that can increase our magnesium needs, such as intense workouts, heavy sweating, and stress. In short, there are plenty of factors that can significantly boost your body's demand for magnesium.
Recommended intake
The recommended daily intake of magnesium is 280 mg for women and 350 mg for men. Some say these levels are relatively easy to maintain with a good diet, while others believe we actually need to increase the amount of magnesium we typically get from our food. The fact is, the general magnesium intake today has dropped dramatically compared to what people used to get from their diets.
With 4 different sources of magnesium
Elexir Organic Magnesium contains magnesium from 4 different sources in the form of malate, citrate, bisglycinate, and lactate. These forms are organic, meaning the magnesium is bound to organic compounds. The term "organic" describes the compound chemically. Organic-bound magnesium is found in plants, animals, and humans, while inorganic magnesium comes from non-living sources like rocks and seawater.
Malate: Malate is a salt of malic acid that binds to magnesium to form magnesium malate. Malate is also a naturally occurring substance in the body, involved in energy production.
Citrate: Citrate is a salt of citric acid that is bound to the magnesium molecule. While citrate itself has no known health benefits, it works well to bind to minerals for better absorption.
Bisglycinate: This consists of the amino acid glycine, which helps form ATP in the body, meaning it’s involved in cellular energy, but it also plays a role in calming processes.
Lactate: In this context, lactate is the conjugate base of lactic acid. Lactate is a naturally occurring substance that serves as an energy source in the body.
With B6 and copper
The product is also enhanced with vitamin B6, which works in synergy with magnesium and is necessary for the normal function of the nervous system, energy metabolism, and immune system. It also reduces fatigue and exhaustion, just like magnesium, and supports cognitive functions in the brain.
Copper contributes to normal energy metabolism and helps the nervous system function properly.
The product also contains black pepper extract Bioperine ®, which enhances magnesium absorption.
