Optimally dosed and 0% buffered magnesium
The choice of magnesium form is a key factor in ensuring optimal effectiveness of supplementation. It is also inseparable from the bioavailability of the selected magnesium form, meaning the proportion of magnesium actually absorbed, and from its digestive tolerance.
The citrate form of magnesium has very high bioavailability, allowing optimal absorption while also offering good digestive tolerance.
Not all forms of magnesium are equal. Magnesium oxide is a good example, due to its poor digestive tolerance, which can cause a marked laxative effect, digestive discomfort and bloating. These digestive disturbances are themselves responsible for the loss of electrolytes, such as magnesium, and reflect the low absorption of this form of magnesium, which therefore offers little interest for supplementation. It should also be noted that magnesium oxide is present in marine magnesium, which consequently causes the same effects in the intestine.
Furthermore, some magnesium-based dietary supplements highlight the fact that they are “buffered”, meaning mixed with magnesium oxide, and should therefore be avoided.
The citrate form provided by PHYSIOMANCE® Magnesium Citrate is ideal for daily magnesium supplementation to help reduce deficiencies and act directly against fatigue and symptoms of magnesium deficiency.
PHYSIOMANCE® Magnesium Citrate is formulated 100% in citrate form and 0% buffered, with no added magnesium oxide.
