Scientific Mechanism
Magnesium is an essential cofactor for over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body, particularly those involving ATP synthesis. At the cellular level, Magnesium helps regulate the transport of calcium and potassium ions across cell membranes, which is critical for nerve impulse transmission and muscle contraction. It also supports the function of the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting a 'calming' effect by regulating neurotransmitters that quiet neural activity. The gummy form utilizes Pectin as a gelling agent, offering a pectin-based delivery system distinct from gelatin.
Key Benefits
Key benefits include:
- Supports healthy muscle function and relaxation
- Promotes nervous system regulation and calmness
- Aids in maintaining healthy blood pressure levels
- Contributes to energy production at the cellular level
Usage & Safety
The recommended dosage is 2 gummies per serving. For optimal absorption, it is best taken with a meal to mitigate any potential gastric discomfort and leverage the food matrix for uptake. Do not exceed the suggested dose. Consult a healthcare provider before use if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication (especially antibiotics or diuretics), or have a history of kidney disease, as magnesium can interact with certain pharmaceuticals.
