Magnesium is essential for energy production, normal cardiac rhythmicity, healthy pulmonary function, and blood glucose regulation.* In fact, magnesium is involved in as many as 600 enzymatic processes in our bodies. However, many Americans don't get the magnesium they need from diet alone.* In addition to offering optimal absorption, Magnesium CitraMate's magnesium and malic acid have been found to provide support to individuals with muscle tenderness and fatigue.* A study of 24 individuals found malic acid, along with 300 mg magnesium, taken two times daily, provided significant support in measurements of muscle tenderness and discomfort.*
Other body functions that require magnesium include nerve conduction, methyl-group transfer, conversion of pyridoxine to pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (the active form of vitamin B6), and muscle contraction.* Citrate and malate chelates enhance Krebs Cycle function and energy production.* Both magnesium and citrate support kidney function by decreasing calcium oxalate and phosphate in the urine.*
