Since our body can't produce magnesium itself, it is crucial that we supply the daily magnesium requirement with food or with food supplements. Magnesium citrate capsules are well tolerated and can help balance or prevent a magnesium deficiency.
Advantages of Magnesium Citrate capsules:
100% pure magnesium citrate of the highest quality
naturally bound to citric acid for better absorption into the body
has a higher bioavailability than other magnesium compounds
two capsules supply 300 mg magnesium (80% of the daily requirement)
guaranteed free from allergens and unnecessary additives
comes in 100% plant-based capsules
for vegans and vegetarians
save and effective
very good value for money
Why is the bioavailability of magnesium so important?
The body cannot directly absorb minerals such as magnesium in their naturally occurring, inorganic form. First, these minerals need to be activated in the digestive tract.
This process, which is known as chelation, increases bioavailability, whereby magnesium can be actively channelled and absorbed through the intestinal wall. For bioactive minerals, chelation is taken care of during the production process.
Chelates are organic compounds of minerals such as amino acids, gluconates, or citrates. These surround the magnesium molecules and actively channel them through the intestinal wall into the body.
As a result, chelate-bound magnesium achieves optimum bioavailability – which means that much more of it is absorbed compared to conventional magnesium products.
Are you getting enough magnesium?
Unfortunately, these days, magnesium deficiency is widespread. The reason is that you can't easily get enough magnesium with an average diet. Studies have also shown that, for example, today broccoli contains about 35% less magnesium than it did 10 years ago. Spinach contains 68% less.
If you're an active person, your magnesium requirement is greater since your muscles consume magnesium, and you also lose it when you sweat. In addition, individuals who drink a lot of coffee, tea, soft drinks or alcohol, eliminate more magnesium through urine. On top of this, any type of stress causes the excretion of magnesium and leads to a deficiency.
What are the reasons magnesium citrate capsules are important?
for muscle cramps
periods of high stress
for athletes
for tension
First warning signs of magnesium deficiency:
muscle cramps
muscle discomfort
muscle weakness
restlessness and fatigue
What can magnesium do for you?
Magnesium is involved in the formation of more than 300 vital enzymes in the human body. This fact demonstrates how essential it is for performance and bio-energy.
is involved in the formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the body's energy source
relaxes muscles and helps with muscle cramps
promotes inner peace
essential for strong bones and teeth
increases oxygen supply
helps reduce tiredness and fatigue
contributes to electrolyte balance
contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system
contributes to normal muscle function
contributes to normal protein synthesis
contributes to normal physiological function
Magnesium citrate tablets or magnesium citrate capsules – which is better?
We deliberately only offer magnesium citrate in capsules and as a powder, even if they have a slightly lower magnesium content than magnesium citrate tablets. This is because magnesium citrate tablets can only be produced using a wide variety of auxiliary substances, such as magnesium stearate, croscarmellose sodium, silicon dioxide or others.
If you want to avoid unnecessary auxiliaries, you should preferably buy magnesium citrate capsules or powder. However, always check the composition of the product, since capsules often contain unnecessary auxiliary substances.
When it comes to your health, quality is essential. Therefore, our Vitality Nutritionals products undergo state-of-the-art independent laboratory analysis to verify label claims and to ensure that you get the highest quality nutrition supplements.
