This NOW Foods product provides 200 mg of elemental magnesium per tablet, bound to citric acid. Two tablets give you 400 mg per day, which is 107% of the reference intake. And with 250 tablets in the pot, you have more than four months' supply in a single purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy citrate is such a common form\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMagnesium exists in many forms, and the difference mainly lies in absorption. Magnesium oxide is cheap and concentrated, but your body absorbs relatively little of it. Magnesium citrate dissolves well in your gastrointestinal tract and is therefore one of the best-absorbed forms. This is precisely why so many people choose citrate when they want to seriously supplement their magnesium intake, without paying extra for forms that, in practice, offer little more. NOW Foods uses a fully reacted citrate here: the magnesium and citrate are completely chemically bound, so it is not just a simple mixture of magnesium oxide and citric acid as in some cheaper products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat 400 mg of elemental magnesium means\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen comparing magnesium supplements, always pay attention to the word elemental. Magnesium citrate as a compound is only partially made of magnesium; the rest is citrate. A product that highlights 1000 mg of magnesium citrate therefore provides much less actual magnesium than that figure suggests. This label indicates 400 mg of elemental magnesium per 2 tablets, and it is the pure magnesium that truly matters. This way, in a single daily dose, you cover the entire reference intake, which is around 375 mg for adults. Magnesium notably contributes to normal energy metabolism and to reducing fatigue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to use magnesium citrate in practice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake 2 tablets daily with a meal and a glass of water. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function and the normal functioning of the nervous system, so many people choose to take it with their evening meal. Taking the product with food also reduces the risk of the slight laxative effect that magnesium can sometimes cause at higher doses. If you prefer to increase gradually, start with 1 tablet of 200 mg per day and increase to the full dose after one week.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor whom these tablets are the best choice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose this magnesium citrate if you want a common, well-absorbed form, at the lowest daily price in the NOW Foods range, and if the vegan aspect is important to you: the coating and excipients are entirely plant-based. If you prefer not to swallow tablets, NOW Foods Magnesium Citrate Softgels or pure Magnesium Citrate Powder are suitable alternatives. The tablets are not made with wheat, gluten, soy, milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, or sesame. Many users keep the pot in their cupboard for months, as 250 tablets last a long time, and adjust their daily dose to what they already get from their diet. Thus, magnesium citrate remains a steady and affordable staple that you won't need to reorder anytime soon.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NOW Foods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49392692265188,"sku":"0733739012920","price":34.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/9724\/7460\/files\/Magnesiumcitraat250tabletten.jpg?v=1783952275","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.fr\/en\/products\/now-citrate-de-magnesium-200-mg-250-comprimes-now-foods","provider":"LUTO Supplements France","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
