Description
A well-absorbed form of magnesium*
- magnesium deficiency is common in the American diet
- magnesium supplementation benefits energy production, cardiac function, carbohydrate metabolism, and pulmonary function*
- well-absorbed citrate chelate
- supports good kidney function*
A study comparing the bioavailability of magnesium citrate with magnesium oxide (a form found in many poorly-absorbed food supplements) found significantly greater absorption of magnesium citrate than magnesium oxide in healthy volunteers.* The same researchers examined solubility and found magnesium citrate to be 55-percent soluble in water; whereas, magnesium oxide is virtually insoluble. The more water-soluble a mineral chelate is, the more absorbable it is in the body.*
Magnesium and citric acid have both been found to decrease the precipitation of calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate in the urine, thus supporting good kidney health.* The combination of magnesium with citrate in Thorne’s Magnesium Citrate offers an attractive combination for individuals with a propensity to have calcium oxalate and phosphate particles in their urine
