Overview
Power for muscles, brains, bones, bowels, and more!
Get up close and personal with this macro mineral that plays a major role in overall health and performance.
Magnesium is an essential mineral that is important to the function of every cell in the body.
Organs such as the heart, brain and kidneys require adequate levels of magnesium for proper function.
Magnesium is involved in dozens of biological processes throughout the body, including nervous system support, bone and muscle maintenance, and intestinal health.*
But wait, there's more!
Magnesium boosts energy production, helps muscles relax, and supports a healthy heart rhythm—the heart cannot function without adequate levels of magnesium!
Plus, a 2011 study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition reveals that magnesium supplementation helps overweight people improve their metabolism.
What great benefits!
Sadly, 40–50% of magnesium in food is lost during processing, and stress, medications, and lifestyle factors can deplete it further...so it’s no wonder most of us don’t get enough of this magnificent mineral.
When magnesium is lacking, it can lead to fatigue, muscle tension, poor sleep, and difficulty maintaining focus.
Our Magnesium Complex combines a superior blend of two highly bioavailable forms of magnesium: Magnesium citrate and Magnesium malate.
Enjoy Magnesium Complex—our Magnesium Citrate + Malate blend—for greater bioavailability!

How It Works
Magnesium
Magnesium is active in over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body. It helps metabolize carbohydrates, proteins and fats, plus other minerals and nutrients such as vitamin C.
Magnesium is essential for the proper utilization of other minerals in the body, including calcium and phosphorus.
Magnesium is critical to bone development and proper musculoskeletal health—60% of the body's magnesium is found in the bones, and the rest is found mainly in the soft tissues and blood. Plus, magnesium works with calcium to help strengthen bones.
Studies have shown that magnesium can also help naturally raise levels of vitamin D in the body.
Magnesium is one of the most crucial minerals for heart health and a healthy heart rhythm. Magnesium plays a vital role in regulating normal heart rhythm and function, relaxaing blood vessels for healthy circulation and maintaining blood pressure, and supporting muscle and nerve function to keep your heart strong.
Magnesium also plays a key role in energy production and is essential for forming Tri Carboxylic Acid (TCA), which aids in the cells’ energy-producing cycle.
In addition, magnesium is important for smooth muscle contractions affecting the heart, as well as the gastrointestinal, female reproductive, and urinary tracts.
And, magnesium promotes relaxation and restorative sleep.
Current studies show that magnesium supports a healthy pregnancy, while other studies have shown that a diet low in magnesium can lead to increased feelings of anxiousness and low mood.
Plus, magnesium supports healthy elimination and has gained real popularity for its soothing effect on the bowel. Magnesium’s ability to promote bowel regularity is so widely accepted that high doses of this mineral are included in many over-the-counter laxative formulas.
Magnesium Citrate
Magnesium citrate is an alkalizing form of magnesium. Magnesium citrate helps to increase fluids in the small intestine to soften stools and promote bowel elimination. As a result, magnesium citrate is helpful for occasional constipation. Magnesium citrate is also widely used as a bowel prep agent prior to a colonoscopy procedure. Several studies show that magnesium citrate is as effective as other regimens in that regard. Plus, some studies indicate that magnesium citrate may be more bioavailable, or better absorbed, than magnesium oxide or magnesium sulfate.
Magnesium Malate
Magnesium malate has been found to promote musculoskeletal health. Magnesium malate is formed by combining magnesium and malic acid, a natural fruit acid found in apples that's responsible for their "tart" taste. Malic acid has its own health benefits, including increasing cellular energy levels, enhancing athletic performance, improving skin health, and supporting the body's detoxification of toxic metals such as aluminum. Magnesium malate is said to be absorbed better than other forms of magnesium.
