DESCRIPTION Magnesium is one of the most important minerals in our body & is involved in more than 300 enzymatic processes. Magnesan Forte contains magnesium in the form of bisglycinates (amino acid chelate); this important mineral is optimally absorbed in this form. Magnesium supports the energy metabolism & is involved in ATP synthesis & the related processes (such as glycolysis, protein metabolism). Magnesium also promotes the stability of the cell membranes. Magnesium promotes the correct membrane potential (essential for the conduction of nerve impulses) by supporting the sodium-potassium pump that ensures that sodium leaves the cell & potassium enters the cell. Magnesium is important for the nervous system & the muscle function (muscle contraction & relaxation) & is therefore also important for blood pressure & heart function. Magnesium is just as important to build & maintain strong bones & teeth as calcium is. Solely supplying calcium can have a counterproductive effect because it increases the secretion of magnesium via the kidneys. Most important characteristics of Magnesan Forte      Optimal absorption because of 100% amino acid-chelated magnesium      Contains only magnesium bisglycinate, the best absorbable form      Fully meets the requirements of a chelate, hence no mixtures without stable chelate bonds      Does not contain the often used magnesium oxide, an inorganic form of magnesium that is absorbed poorly or not at all      Tested in accordance with the FTIR method (Fourrier Transmittance Infrared-method), approved by the AOAC (Association of Analytical Communities)      Their thin film coating makes them easy to swallow      Also contains vitamin B6, an important cofactor in magnesium metabolism      Contains glycine, an amino acid with an inhibiting effect on the nervous system USE Take 1 to 2 tablets daily, during or immediately after a meal. WARNING Interactions with regular medication & other natural health products may occur. Please consult an expert about this. SYNERGISM Besides taking this product it is also recommended to follow a healthy diet, as well as taking a basic supplementation of Multi Vital Forte, Vitamin C-1000 Ascorbate Complex & Omega-3 liquid (or Omega-3 capsules).

What is Magnesium & what does it do? Magnesium is anessential mineral that accounts for about 0.05% of the bodys total weight. Nearly 70% of the bodys supply is located in the bones, together with calciumand phosphorus, while 30% is found in cellular fluids & some soft tissue. Some 30%-40% of ingested dietary magnesium is absorbed, while the rest is excreted inthe faeces. Magnesium is involved in many essential metabolic processes, including therelease of energy from glucose, synthesis of protein & nucleic acids, theformation of urea, vascular tone, muscle impulse transmission, electricalstability of the cells, neurotransmission & activity. Most is found inside thecell, where it activates enzymes necessary for the metabolism of carbohydratesand amino acids. It also regulates the acid/alkali balance in the body. Magnesium helps promote the absorption & metabolism of other minerals, suchas calcium, phosphorus, sodium & potassium. It also helps utilise the Bcomplex vitamins, vitamin C & vitamin E in the body. It aids in bone growthand is necessary for proper functioning of muscles. Best Natural Sources Magnesium is widely distributed infoods, being found chiefly in fresh, green vegetables. Other excellent sourcesinclude raw, unmilled wheat germ, soya beans, milk, whole grains, seafoods, figs, corn, apples & oil-rich seeds & nuts, especially almonds. Fish, garlic, tofu, peaches, apricots & lima beans are also good sources. Absorption & Storage Magnesium is absorbed in the smallintestine. The rate of absorption is influenced by the parathyroid hormones, therate of water absorption & the amounts of calcium, phosphorus & lactose inthe body. Both magnesium & calcium compete for the same absorption sites. Absorption may be inhibited by phytates (vegetable fibre), too many fats, codliver oil or protein. Foods high in oxalic acid inhibit absorption. Vitamin D isnecessary for the proper utilisation of magnesium. When the intake of magnesiumis low, the rate of absorption may be as high as 75%; when the intake is high, the rate of absorption may be as low as 25%. Losses tend to increase with theuse of diuretics & the consumption of alcohol. Food sources of magnesium are far better absorbed than inorganicsources. RDA The RDA for magnesium is 375mg. Evidencesuggests that the balance between calcium & magnesium is especially important. If calcium consumption is high, magnesium intake needs to be high also, or adeficiency will result. The amount of protein, phosphorous & vitamin D in thediet also influences the magnesium requirement. The need for magnesium isincreased when blood cholesterol levels are high & when consumption of proteinis high. We offer 3 types of Magnesium: - Food State Magnesium - Biofood Magnesium & - Magnesium Citrate. Both Food State Magnesium & Biofood Magnesium are effectively organicmatrix forms of magnesium, complete with natural amino acid carriers to ensuretransport to sites of need within the body. Food State Magnesium is 40mg potencywhereas Biofood Magnesium is 100mg potency & combined in a probiotic culture. Both of these products are rapidly absorbed into the blood stream & the aminoacid carriers ensure the mineral can cross the cell wall to raise tissue levelstoo. Magnesium Citrate is the best of the non-food form forms of magnesium. As acitrate it is readily absorbed into the bloodstream via the citric acidcycle. * Beneficially combined in a base of lactobacillus bulgaricus. This probiotic species is a native inhabitant of the human GItract. Ingredients Nutrient Per tablet %RDA Magnesium 40.0mg 11 RDA = Recommended Daily Allowance Suggested Intake: 1-2tablets daily, or take as directed by a practitioner.

Magnesium Hydroxide

Magnesium is important for many physiological functions, metabolism of carbohydrates and energy production. The magnesium content of refined foods is usually low. Water can provide magnesium, but the amount varies according to the water supply. Green vegetables such as spinach and cabbage provide magnesium because the centre of the chlorophyll molecule contains it. Nuts, seeds, and some whole grains are also good sources, but although magnesium is present in many foods, it usually occurs in small amounts, and daily needs can only be met by eating a wide variety of foods. Contra-Indications If pregnant or breast feeding, consult your health care practitioner before using. For more information on this product contact your healthcare practitioner. This product should not be used as a
substitute for a varied diet. Directions Recommended dose 1 capsule per day with a meal. Do not exceed this recommended dose unless prescribed by your practitioner.
