Brief overview of health benefits:

If you're looking for a supplement that covers and supports a wide range of organs sensitive to the aging process, look no further. Magnesium supports heart and vascular health, strengthens your bones and helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, and much more. So let magnesium help you take care of the aging process!

Why it works:

As your body ages, your bones may begin to lose strength. It's also common that your cardiovascular system may experience some level of fatigue and that nerve function is not as fast as it used to be.

That's because the magnesium in magnesium citrate can support bone strength and cardiovascular and nerve function. Simply put, magnesium is one of the most important minerals in the body [1,2].

Magnesium supports hundreds of enzymatic processes in cells [3] and helps keep them strong and healthy. In addition, it can also help keep your heart rhythm stable and support a healthy immune system. It can also help keep blood sugar and blood pressure levels already in the normal range and is known to be involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis [1,2].

All of these supportive functions play a role in combating the natural aging process by fighting many different age-related afflictions simultaneously.

Product Science:

Magnesium can positively support the bone mineral matrix and its ability to metabolize minerals that are essential for repair and renewal [4,5]. Researchers have stated that people need to take in adequate amounts of minerals including calcium and magnesium. They are essential for your body and therefore can help maintain strong and healthy bones.

Studies have also reported that dietary magnesium intake and supplementation can actually improve metabolic profile [6-8]. It has been shown that magnesium can positively affect insulin resistance, serum lipid profiles, inflammation, endothelial function, and oxidative stress [9].
