Magnesium (as magnesium malate, magnesium orotate, magnesium taurinate)
Magnesium is an amazing mineral essential for properly functioning of bones, nerves, muscles and digestion, among many other benefits.* You can find magnesium in food, or in morning supplements, like this one.
The following three forms of magnesium in Smidge® Morning Magnesium.
✦ Magnesium malate: This protein form is derived from pasture-raised cows. It’s associated with relief from aches and pains in joints, radiant skin health, and even bone loss prevention.
✦ Magnesium orotate: Magnesium orotate is salt-combining magnesium with orotic acid. Orotates are magnificent at transporting minerals, delivering them precisely to the membrane within each cell. That’s why it’s incredibly well-absorbed, with very little of the magnesium ion wasted. Magnesium orotate supports DNA synthesis and tissues.* It also supports the elasticity of blood vessels, essential for heart health.* And, studies show this type of magnesium may improve athletic performance.
✦ Magnesium taurinate: Magnesium taurinate is a compound containing magnesium and the amino acid taurine (your body uses taurine to transport magnesium into the body and maximize absorption). Magnesium taurinate supports cognitive function and heart health.* It also fuels muscles and may help calm nerves.
✦ Boron (as bororganic glycine): Boron is a trace mineral that plays a crucial role in the absorption of calcium and magnesium. It’s primarily known for supporting bone density.* It can be found naturally in leafy green vegetables like spinach, and in grains, prunes, raisins, non-citrus fruits and nuts.
✦ Vegetarian capsule: Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), water. This vegetable (vegan) capsules consist of only two ingredients: HPMC and purified water. HPMC is derived from vegetable cellulose of either pine or poplar. 100% natural, these capsules contain no preservatives, no gelatin, wheat, animal by-products or starch.
