Description:
MAGNESIUM ULTRA POTENT
Magnesium is a mineral involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body. Magnesium is vital for maintaining overall health. Modern-day diets tend to be deficient in magnesium due to poor mineral content in the soil and food processing. This is where a good quality magnesium supplement could come in handy to support these vital body processes.
What makes our magnesium so unique and superior to other brands?
Each teaspoon provides a massive 400mg of elemental magnesium. This provides you with the daily therapeutic dose of magnesium in only one teaspoon.
We have combined 4 different forms of magnesium in this powder. We have excluded magnesium oxide from our formula as it is poorly absorbed and can cause a laxative effect.
- It is free from calcium. Magnesium helps the muscles relax, whilst calcium has the opposite effect (contraction). You want something else when you're trying to relax!
- Free from artificial colours, sweeteners, dairy, yeast, gluten, or sugar.
- The benefits of Magnesium Ultra Potent:
Reduce stress: Magnesium helps to relax and calm the nervous system. Stress depletes magnesium stores in the body, making us more susceptible to stress through a vicious cycle of stress and magnesium depletion.
Headache management: Several studies have reported that magnesium supplementation can help to relieve headaches.
Decreased muscle cramps: Electrolyte imbalance is often linked with muscle cramps or spasms. Magnesium is the most commonly deficient of all the electrolytes and is associated with muscular cramps, spasms and tightness. Many people experience relief from their cramps when supplementing with magnesium.
Improved sleep: As magnesium helps calm the nervous system, it is a great supplement to take before bed to help reduce stress and evoke relaxation. Stress is one of the most common causes of a poor night's sleep, so reducing stress could benefit a restful sleep.
