Now Foods Magnesium Citrate Softgels is a dietary supplement containing a highly-assimilable form of magnesium. This element plays an incredibly important functions in the organism. It is engaged, among others, in the proper metabolism of osseous tissue, regeneration of the nervous tissue, normalization of work of skeletal muscles and the heart muscle.

Magnesium is an element from the group of metals, which in the organism plays many pro-health functions. Despite the fact that it is most often provided in sufficient amounts, many factors (stress, alcohol, diseases, caffeine) cause excessive loss of this element. It is believed that it is one of the minerals, the deficiency of which is the most common, therefore proper supplementation is recommended.

Various forms of the active substance appearing in the supplement ensure its maximal absorption and facilitate its inflow to cells. Moreover, they protect from excessive irritation of the digestive system.

Activator of many processes
Magnesium constitutes a cofactor of more than 300 enzymes, which regulate various processes in the organism. Thanks to its presence, efficient synthesis of proteins is possible, glucose level in blood is regulated and the work of the nervous system is normalized.

This element is essential for proper energy production in the organism. Its deficiency may be related to the feeling of fatigue and exhaustion.

For healthy bones!
Apart from calcium and phosphorus, magnesium is a microelement, which ensures proper structural development of bones. Its considerable amount is stored in this tissue. Magnesium activates the work of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, thank to which it ensures high endurance and mineralization of bones. Moreover, it positively regulates the concentration of the active form of vitamin D, which is important for proper calcium metabolism. It demonstrates positive influence on homeostasis of osseous tissue.

Protection from muscle cramps
As an important electrolyte, magnesium takes part in regulating active transport of ions Ca²⁺ and K⁺ through cell membranes. Thanks to this, magnesium protects from the excessive inflow of calcium ions, which lead to painful, uncontrollable cramps. Magnesium blocks channels for this element, thanks to which it protects from excessive stimulation of muscle tissue.

Thanks to the fact that the active substance normalizes muscle work, it also contributes to the improvement of the heart rhythm. It is an effect, which supports the fight with hypertension and arrhythmia.

Rest for the nervous system
Proper level of magnesium in the organism maintains proper work of the brain and protects the nervous system from excessive stimulation. It results from the fact that this element stimulates GABA receptors, which contributes to calming down the work of the nervous system. It is reflected in its better regeneration and by the same token - more efficient work.

Moreover, magnesium has antidepressant effect, which is related to decreasing the excitability of NMDA receptors. It was also proven that in case of excessive stimulation, they are the cause of developing this disorder.

The supplement Magnesium Citrate Softgels by Now Foods is a magnesium preparation characterized by high absorption. Thanks to this, effective complementation of deficiencies of this element in the organism is possible. The preparation is recommended mainly to active people and those prone to stress. They constitute the main target group, as excessive physical activity and all kinds of stressors contribute to the loss of magnesium.
