Magnesium Organic 120 mg
Complex with four organic forms of magnesium
With P-5-P (active vitamin B6) and copper
With Bioperine® for increased absorption
120 mg magnesium per capsule
For muscles and nervous system
For reduced fatigue and exhaustion
Elexir Organic Magnesium is a food supplement with four different types of magnesium in the form of magnesium malate, magnesium citrate, magnesium bisglycinate and magnesium lactate. Elexir Organic Magnesium is supplemented with vitamin B6 in the active form P-5-P (pyridoxal-5-phosphate), copper and the patented black pepper extract Bioperine® which increases absorption and bioavailability.
A mineral for the whole body
Magnesium is needed for the muscles in the body to have the right conditions to function normally and can also reduce symptoms such as fatigue and exhaustion. Both energy metabolism and the nervous system are dependent on the body's magnesium levels, and magnesium also contributes to maintaining normal bone structure and healthy teeth. Magnesium participates in a large number of the body's biochemical reactions and is needed to activate approximately 300 different enzymes! Magnesium is necessary for the body's electrolyte balance (salt balance), for normal cell division processes and for protein synthesis. In addition, this mineral is important for our cognitive functions in the brain. In other words, it is a substance with a very broad effect on many completely different areas of the body.
The diet is not always rich in magnesium
Good sources of magnesium in the diet are nuts, green leafy vegetables, whole grain cereals, almonds, beans, potatoes, fish, meat and dairy products. However, keep in mind that chemical fertilizers prevent the plants from absorbing magnesium from the soil, which means that the magnesium content varies greatly depending on the origin of the plants. The absorption of magnesium can also be reduced with the simultaneous intake of foods rich in phytic acid and/or with very low protein intake. As if this were not enough, coffee, tea, soft drinks and other diuretics, for example medication with diuretics, risk stimulating the excretion of magnesium in the urine. Heavy alcohol consumption can also be another factor in magnesium loss, which can cause a lack of the mineral. There are also other factors that can increase our magnesium need such as hard exercise, heavy sweating and stress. In other words, there are a number of factors that can significantly increase the body's need for magnesium.
Recommended intake
Recommended daily intake of magnesium is 280mg for women and 350mg for men. Some believe that these are relatively easy levels to maintain with a good diet, while others believe that we should in fact at least need to increase the amount of magnesium we get on average through our diet. The fact is that the general magnesium intake today has decreased enormously compared to the amount of magnesium you normally got through the diet before.
With 4 different magnesium sources
Elixir Organic Magnesium contains magnesium from 4 different sources in the form of malate, citrate, bisglycinate and lactate. These forms are organic, ie the mineral magnesium is bound to an organic compound. The term "organic" actually describes the compound purely chemically. Organically bound magnesium is found in plants, animals and humans, while inorganic magnesium comes from non-living sources such as rocks and seawater.
Malate: Malate is a salt of malic acid which then binds to magnesium and forms magnesium malate. Malate is also a substance of the body's own, among other things involved in the body's energy production.
Citrate: Citrate is a salt of citric acid that is bound to the magnesium molecule. Citrate has no known health benefits in itself but is well suited to bind to minerals for good absorption.
Bisglycinate: Consists of the amino acid glycine, which is involved in forming ATP in the body, i.e. the cells' energy, but it is also involved in calming processes.
Lactate: Lactate in this context is the so-called conjugate base of lactic acid. Lactate is a body-specific substance that, among other things, is used as an energy source in the body.
With B6 and copper
The product is also supplemented with vitamin B6, which interacts with magnesium and is needed for the normal functioning of the nervous system, energy metabolism and the immune system. It also, like magnesium, reduces fatigue and exhaustion and supports the cognitive functions of the brain.
Copper contributes to normal energy metabolism and to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
The product also contains the black pepper extract Bioperine ® which increases the absorption of magnesium.
Recommended intake for adults: 1-2 capsules daily with a meal.
Recommended daily intake should not be exceeded. It is important to have a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Dietary supplements should not be used as an alternative to a varied diet.
