Magnesium L-Threonate is a particularly excellent nutraceutical that provides the body with an excellent supply of magnesium ions. This magnesium molecule is more easily & effectively absorbed than other salts. It may even help with depression & memory loss because it even reaches brain cells.
Essential metabolic processes like protein synthesis, muscle & nerve functions which require the magnesium ions are benefitted immensely. By boosting glycolysis, they also improve energy productions. Additionally, these ions increase enzyme activity, protein synthesis & aid in blood pressure & sugar regulation. Magnesium ions are essential for calcium & potassium transport, stronger bone formation & DNA synthesis.
Food supplement dose: 600 mg of Magnesium L-Threonate furnishes 43 mg of elemental magnesium. It is 11% NRV based on a 200 calorie diet.
