- High-Concentration Magnesium for Cardiovascular Support
- Helps Maintain Healthy Blood Pressure and Glucose Levels
- Promotes Energy Production and Muscle Relaxation
OVERVIEW
Magnesium is an abundant mineral in the body and is found naturally in many foods, like green leafy vegetables. It is also found in over-the-counter medications, such as laxatives.
In addition, more than 57% of the population does not meet the United States Department of Agriculture's dietary magnesium requirements. Intracellular magnesium levels are decreased by excessive intake of alcohol, salt, coffee, phosphoric acid found in sodas, diets high in calcium, and high stress levels.
Because of the widespread nature of magnesium deficiencies, adequate daily intake of magnesium is critical for proper hydration, stress response, muscle relaxation, promoting healthy blood pressure levels, optimal bone mineral density, and blood sugar regulation.
Opti-Absorb Triple Magnesium provides three unique forms of highly-absorbed magnesium to ensure maximum absorption of this important macromineral. Most magnesium supplements use only a single source of magnesium, which can easily overwhelm a single absorption pathway and limit uptake.
This reacted magnesium takes advantage of three unique absorption pathways by providing magnesium as di-magnesium malate, magnesium citrate, and magnesium lysinate glycinate to enhance absorption, improve utilization, and support gastrointestinal (GI) comfort.
The forms of magnesium used in Opti-Absorb Magnesium preserve GI comfort while maximizing absorption and restoring magnesium levels in the body.
Suggested Use: 2-3 capsules per day or more as recommended by your healthcare professional.
INGREDIENT BENEFITS
Bioavailability- Reacted Magnesium - The Mineral Chelate Difference
The importance of bioavailability is obvious. If consuming a magnesium supplement has little effect on improving the body’s magnesium balance, there is no reason to ingest it. Signs of inferior mineral supplements include the use of cheap, poorly absorbed rock-salt minerals such as calcium carbonate and magnesium oxide.
These mineral forms slow and limit absorption, relying on adequate stomach acid to release magnesium ions, which then enter the body via passive diffusion. And, because they tend to remain in the intestines longer, these forms of mineral supplements can cause intestinal distress such as constipation (calcium carbonate) or diarrhea (magnesium oxide).
Our Opti-Absorb Magnesium provides the additional benefit of highly absorbed, Albion® mineral chelates. Albion® is the world leader in manufacturing highly bioavailable mineral chelates, a specialized form of minerals bound to amino acids.
This patented process creates organic mineral compounds that use active absorption mechanisms in the gastrointestinal tract to greatly enhance mineral absorption.
In a magnesium comparison study reported by Graff et al. at Weber State University, Albion®’s magnesium amino acid chelate had:
- 8.8 times greater absorption than magnesium oxide
- 5.6 times greater absorption than magnesium sulfate
- 2.3 times greater absorption than magnesium carbonate
In addition, other comparison studies have shown significantly superior absorption of magnesium chelates compared to other mineral forms:
- At 400 mg, magnesium chelate significantly reduced or eliminated menstrual abdominal discomfort.
- Multiple double-blind studies found that urinary excretion of magnesium chloride was higher than that of magnesium glycinate, indicating superior absorption.
- Magnesium glycinate is shown to have a reduced laxative effect when compared to other forms of magnesium.
Mineral chelates are gentle, gut “friendly” minerals that do not cause diarrhea that often accompanies magnesium oxide and other rock-salt forms.
Albion®’s mineral chelates have extensive clinical research demonstrating superior bioavailability, biological activity, stability, and improved tolerance.
