Ionic magnesium provides magnesium in a form that goes more directly to where it can be absorbed by the gut. The magnesium does not need to be broken down in the stomach and is therefore more readily available. This ionic magnesium supplement contains a low dose of magnesium, making it suitable for gradually adding the mineral to the diet.

Magnesium is an essential nutrient with many functions in the human body:

It helps maintain energy and fight fatigue
It helps build and maintain bones and teeth
It contributes to the health of nerves, muscles and cell membranes
It contributes to normal muscle function, including that of the heart
It helps in protein production
It can help keep some of the body's other mineral and hormonal systems balanced
One dose contains 1.7 mg of active magnesium. This is approximately 0.5% of the recommended daily allowance.

Magnesium is readily available in a normal, balanced diet. However, some people may not be able to absorb the full amount of magnesium they need. Addressing magnesium deficiency can reduce fatigue and exhaustion, help restore nerve and muscle function, and support bone and tooth health.
