Magnesium Plus (90 Tablets)
Each Magnesium Plus tablet provides a rich source of magnesium in the forms of magnesium malate, magnesium citrate, and magnesium ascorbate (a form of vitamin C), along with vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, and B12. These forms of magnesium have been chosen for their superior absorption and gentle action in the gut.
This is one of Emma's favourite supplements and one she frequently uses in clinic. She wrote an article about magnesium, which can be found on this website.
The total elemental magnesium is listed on the Magnesium Plus container and in the table below as ‘magnesium’.
When comparing magnesium supplements, the most important factor is the total (elemental) magnesium listed. Measurements of magnesium attached to its carriers (e.g. citrate, malate, ascorbate) do not indicate the total elemental magnesium contained in a product. By law, UK supplements are required to list this total (elemental) magnesium. We list the total magnesium on the container as ‘magnesium’, with each tablet containing a total of 126 mg of elemental magnesium.
That said, the type of carriers used is also important. Some forms, such as magnesium oxide, can potentially be irritating to the stomach and poorly absorbed.
We pride ourselves on the quality of our magnesium, which is organically bound to citrate, malate, and ascorbate, rather than using lesser-tolerated inorganic magnesium salts.
Please note that the tablet is larger in size to accommodate a therapeutic dose of magnesium. However, it is scored for easy splitting, making it simpler to swallow.
