Magnesium Complex Ultra

The most important thing is regular intake, not the time. We recommend dividing the daily portion of 2 capsules into two doses, for example one capsule in the morning and one in the evening, each with a meal. The reason: The intestinal mucosa can only absorb a limited amount of magnesium at a time, so your body uses the magnesium better over the course of the day. The intake also follows the recommendation of the Federal Institute for Risk Assessment.

High single doses can have a laxative effect in some people; if the kidneys are healthy, the body simply excretes excess magnesium. The Magnesium Complex Ultra therefore only uses well-tolerated, organically bound magnesium compounds. Divide the daily portion of 2 capsules into two additional doses, this supports tolerance and corresponds to the recommendation of the Federal Institute for Risk Assessment.

There is no one best form because the forms differ in bioavailability, tolerability and properties. Magnesium glycinate is considered to be particularly stomach-friendly, citrate is highly soluble in water and readily available, malate is bound to malic acid, and taurate is bound to the amino acid taurine. Instead of committing to one form, the Ultra 9 magnesium complex combines forms with complementary properties in a coordinated mixing ratio.

Typical signs can include muscle cramps and tension, eyelid twitching, fatigue, difficulty concentrating or inner restlessness. The causes are often an unbalanced diet, stress, intensive exercise, pregnancy and breastfeeding or increased excretion, for example due to alcohol or certain medications. Only an examination can provide certainty. If symptoms persist, talk to your doctor.

Magnesium is not an acute medication: the body gradually replenishes its magnesium stores. It is therefore crucial to take it continuously every day for several weeks. Magnesium contributes, among other things, to normal muscle and nerve function, to energy metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

Yes, the Magnesium Complex Ultra is designed as a daily basic supply. The apothecary jar covers almost half a year with 150 daily portions. If you have kidney disease or are taking medication on a long-term basis, please check with your doctor beforehand.

You should take some medications (e.g. certain antibiotics or thyroid preparations) 2 to 3 hours apart, as magnesium can influence their absorption. It is also best to take high-dose calcium or zinc at a different time because the minerals in the intestine compete for absorption. If in doubt, ask your pharmacy or doctor's office.

When you sweat, the body loses minerals, and intensive exercise increases the need for magnesium. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function, electrolyte balance and normal energy metabolism. A reliable daily supply of magnesium is therefore particularly useful for athletes, ideally taken throughout the day.
