What is Metabolics Magnesium L-Threonate capsules for?

Magnesium L-Threonate is a relatively new and bio effective form of magnesium that can cross the blood-brain barrier, supporting sleep and brain health. Research indicates that not all forms of magnesium can elevate brain magnesium levels; however, Magnesium L-Threonate has been shown to do so. This enhanced permeability allows it to effectively increase magnesium concentrations in the brain, which is critical for cognitive function and overall brain health. The unique threonate ligand facilitates the transport of magnesium ions across the blood-brain barrier. The bioavailability of magnesium L-threonate not only improves cognitive function but also supports neurological health by enhancing synaptic plasticity, aiding memory formation, and potentially mitigating age-related cognitive decline.

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and Food standards Agency have now approved (as of March 2024) Magnesium L-Threonate monohydrate as a safe and effective magnesium supplement, as discussed in this EFSA journal. Magnesium L-threonate, intended for food supplements, should not be combined with other magnesium sources. The maximum dose of magnesium L-threonate monohydrate is 3,000 mg/day which provides up to 249 mg/day of magnesium and up to 2,730 mg/day of L-threonate.

Who is Metabolics Magnesium L-Threonate capsules for?

Created for individuals seeking nutritional support to maintain optimal magnesium levels, particularly related to cognitive health.

It is ideal for those seeking to support memory, focus, and overall cognitive function. It also benefits people looking to support age-related cognitive decline and maintain brain health.

Those who consume diets low in magnesium-rich foods, such as green leafy vegetables, nuts, seeds, and whole grains, may benefit from supplementation to ensure adequate intake.

Why use Metabolics Magnesium Threonate capsules

Magnesium L-threonate is often promoted for its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier more effectively than other forms, potentially enhancing cognitive functions such as memory and learning.

It is used for supporting neurological health and is believed to help with issues like brain fog, anxiety, and age-related cognitive decline.

In addition to its cognitive health benefits, as it is a source of magnesium, it serves as a critical cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions playing an indispensable role in numerous essential physiological functions. It supports vital processes such as energy production, muscle function, electrolyte balance, cellular division, nervous system function, maintenance of healthy bones and teeth, and regulation of psychological well-being.

Reduction of Tiredness and Fatigue

Magnesium is involved in energy production within the body. Adequate levels can help combat tiredness and fatigue, ensuring optimal energy levels.

Electrolyte Balance

As an electrolyte, magnesium helps maintain the balance of fluids within cells, which is vital for various bodily functions, including nerve signalling and muscle contraction.

Normal Energy-Yielding Metabolism

Magnesium plays a role in converting food into energy. It supports enzymes involved in metabolic processes, contributing to the body's energy production.

Functioning of the Nervous System

Magnesium aids in nerve function by regulating neurotransmitters. This helps with signal transmission, supporting the proper functioning of the nervous system.

Normal Muscle Function

Magnesium facilitates muscle contractions and relaxation, making it essential for normal muscle function, including the heart muscle.

Normal Protein Synthesis

It is involved in protein synthesis, which is crucial for tissue repair, muscle growth, and overall cellular health.

Normal Psychological Function

Magnesium has an impact on mental health and cognitive functions. Adequate levels are associated with better mood regulation, stress management, and cognitive performance.

Maintenance of Normal Bones and Teeth

Magnesium, along with calcium and other minerals, contributes to bone density and strength, promoting healthy bone structure. It also supports tooth enamel health.

Role in Cell Division

Magnesium is involved in the process of cell division, which is vital for growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues and organs in the body.

Magnesium is a vital mineral crucial for numerous bodily functions. Ensuring sufficient magnesium levels, whether through diet or supplementation, can significantly contribute to overall well-being.
