citrate and malate chelates enhance Krebs cycle function and energy production
supports optimal muscle function*
Product Description
Magnesium CitraMate provides magnesium bound to citrate-malate for superior absorption.* Both magnesium and malic acid have been found to provide support to individuals with muscle tenderness and fatigue.* A study of 24 individuals found malic acid along with 300 mg magnesium (equivalent to 2 capsules of Magnesium CitraMate) taken two times daily provided significant support in measurements of tenderness and discomfort.*
Magnesium is present in all cells of the body and is involved in over 300 enzymatic processes, including energy production.* Magnesium is essential for maintaining normal bone density, normal cardiac rhythmicity, normal pulmonary function, and normal blood glucose regulation.* Other body functions requiring magnesium include nerve conduction, methyl-group transfer, conversion of pyridoxine to pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (the active form of vitamin B6), production of energy, and muscle contraction.* Magnesium supplementation appears to be a significant support to maintaining already normal bone density.*
