1. Organic form to help optimise absorption
Not all forms of magnesium are created equal. Magnesium citrate is considered an organic form of magnesium, meaning it binds to citric acid, which promotes high solubility and tends to be more easily absorbed in the digestive system. This makes it gentle on the stomach compared to some inorganic forms such as magnesium oxide, which may not be as easily absorbed. A well absorbed form of magnesium means your body can more efficiently utilise magnesium where it’s needed most to achieve specific therapeutic outcomes.
2. Helps reduce the occurrence of mild migraines
The link between magnesium and migraine is well studied[2], with magnesium being necessary to support nervous system health, a key factor in the development of migraines. By maintaining healthy magnesium levels in the body, individuals prone to migraines may experience fewer occurrences.
3. Energy support through the citric acid cycle
Magnesium plays a vital role in energy production, particularly in the citric acid cycle (also known as the Krebs cycle), the process by which our cells generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the body’s main energy currency. Without adequate magnesium, enzymes involved in this cycle cannot function optimally. Magnesium citrate, with its connection to citric acid, supports energy production, a process important for maintaining general health and vitality.
