Magnesium is one of the most important minerals for human physiology, serving as a cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions. The 2013 NHANES found that 48% of the United States population consumed less than the recommended daily allowance for magnesium. Additionally, magnesium status can be negatively impacted by certain health conditions, medications, and exercise and diet choices.

A sufficient level of magnesium is essential for the health and function of the brain. Some of its most important functions are protecting the integrity of the blood brain barrier (BBB), serving as a cofactor for neurotransmitter synthesis, and modulating receptors. The transportation of magnesium into the brain is normally a restricted process due to the tight regulation of magnesium in blood.

In 2010, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology published their novel discovery of magnesium L-threonate, the only magnesium complex shown to specifically increase magnesium levels within the brain. Intraneuronal magnesium has been demonstrated to support neuroplasticity and mental focus, and improve memory in the brain. It promotes quality of life by supporting a balanced sleep-wake cycle and mood. Mag Threonate can also help alleviate occasional nervousness and stress.

Suggested Use:

2 capsules per day or as recommended by your health care professional.

 

Benefits

Sleep Quality

Poor sleep affects 62% of adults worldwide. Some mechanisms to explain the connection of poor sleep with inadequate magnesium are the ability of magnesium to bind gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors, attenuation of the stress response or its role as a cofactor in melatonin synthesis.


Mental-Emotional Health

Symptoms of low mood and nervousness can occur independently of stress but are often experienced at the same time. In the brain, magnesium supports mood and emotional health by acting as a cofactor for the synthesis of dopamine and serotonin, inhibiting the release of excitatory glutamate and binding calming GABA receptors.


Memory and Concentration

In a study of adults who wanted to improve their memory, those that received 1.5 to 2 g of magnesium L-threonate daily demonstrated improvement in executive function, working (short-term) memory and episodic memory.
