Magnesium is a mineral that is critical for energy production and metabolism, muscle contraction, nerve impulse transmission, and bone mineralization. It is a required cofactor for an estimated 300 enzymes. Among the reactions catalyzed by these enzymes are fatty acid synthesis, protein synthesis, and glucose metabolism. Magnesium status is also important for regulation of calcium balance through its effects on the parathyroid gland. Magnesium Citrate is easily absorbed, and NOW Magnesium Citrate Softgels are provided in a liquid base with chelated forms for superior bioavailability.

Magnesium is necessary for 300 enzyme reactions in the body
Magnesium Citrate is easier to assimilate in the body versus magnesium oxide. I trust the quality control of Now Foods with this supplement and all their supplements. This product, Magnesium Citrate includes magnesium glycinate and malate which help make the absorption of the magnesium faster. The softgets are better than tablets.

My preferred magnesium supplement
This product is on my ‘repeat buy’ list for two reasons: 1) I eat a ketogenic diet, which means I need to have higher intake of magnesium in general, and 2) I have a family history of colon cancer, which means I need to make sure that I am regular. This product addresses both of those issues. It’s a softgel, which seems to deliver the magnesium better than the capsules I was using before. It has magnesium citrate, which keeps stool soft but not liquid, which is important! It seems to work a bit faster than capsules as well, in 4-6 hours vs about 12 hours. I like that this product also has magnesium glycinate and malate, which do different things in the body than the citrate, and don’t generally affect stool very much. I’ve purchased this product a few times and plan to continue purchasing.

Good stuff
My choice for magnesium supplementation

quick shipping, long expiration date
Product I’ve used for years, like it and its most effective for me if I puncture the soft gel and squeeze out the contents, rinse it down with water. Helps my sleep and doesn’t “upset” my digestion quickly like liquid versions have, its very gentle. A nutritionist recommended this because it has 3 forms of magnesium (not just citrate) — in one soft gel.Oddly, this recent bottle, the soft gels are brittle. Can’t recall if they were always this way but it seems odd.

It’s a great product, does what it says
It’s a great product, does what it says. I use it regularly. Smooth transaction. Very pleased.Note: The sofgels (capsule shape) are quite large. All magnesium supplements tend to be large. I have no problem swallowing them though some may.
