Triple Source Magnesium Chewable has three sources: Aquamin® (from Pristine Irish Seawater), Magnesium Citrate and Magnesium Chelate. Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body that is part of over three hundred biological processes. Most notably it promotes healthy bones and muscles but it is also instrumental in supporting relaxation and can act as a calmative. Magnesium is an essential nutrient, meaning that your body needs it for healthy functioning. It is found in significant quantities throughout the body and used for numerous purposes, including muscle relaxation, blood clotting, and the manufacture of ATP (adenosine triphosphate, the body’s main energy molecule). It has been called nature’s calcium channel blocker. The idea refers to magnesium’s ability to block calcium from entering muscle and heart cells. This may be the basis for some of magnesium’s effects when it is taken as a supplement in fairly high doses.† Features 400 mg Magnesium per serving, 100mg of Magnesium per Chewable tablet (from Aquamin®, magnesium citrate and magnesium chelate) Natural Berry Lemonade Flavor Non GMO and Vegan with Simple and Clean Excipients Contains No dairy, wheat, gluten, eggs, peanuts, soy, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, preservatives, artificial colors or flavors. Benefits Magnesium a cofactor for well over 300 biochemical reactions.† Magnesium is required for nutrient metabolism and energy production, muscle function and works synergistically with calcium, where calcium is responsible for muscle contraction and magnesium, muscle relaxation.† Magnesium is also essential for maintaining a normal, healthy blood pressure, and is required for the synthesis of DNA and RNA, cell membrane function and the activity of hormones, neurotransmitters and other cellular regulators.† Magnesium increases GABA, which encourages relaxation as well as sleep. Low GABA levels in the body can make it difficult to relax.† Magnesium also plays a key role in regulating the body’s stress-response system. Magnesium deficiency is associated with heightened stress and anxiety.†
