BrainMax Performance Magnesium, 1000 mg, Magnesium 200 mg + Vitamin B6 P5P, 100 capsules

Performance Magnesium® contains in one capsule 1,000 mg of highly absorbable magnesium bisglycinate MagChel® and 1.4 mg of vitamin B6 in the active form of Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate with high bioavailability. This optimal combination ensures a high concentration of elemental magnesium and excellent bioavailability in the body. 1 capsule contains 200 mg of elemental magnesium. The chelated form of magnesium bisglycinate calms the body, relieves exhaustion and contributes to normal muscle (including heart) and mental function. One capsule will cover more than 50% of your daily magnesium needs. Organic chelated form of magnesium consisting of the amino acid glycine and magnesium, which is very useful for the organism. In addition, you will also supplement 100% of the daily dose of vitamin B6 in its active form Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate, which will amplify the positive effect on the nervous system and the body. Since glycine is an amino acid associated with relaxation, bisglycinate has a calming, cortisol-mitigating effect. Magnesium bisglycinate is suitable for use after training and in the afternoon or evening to support normal nervous system and muscle function due to its calming effects associated with glycine content.

For whom Performance Magnesium® is suitable

Why we need to supplement magnesium

Magnesium is the most deficient mineral in the population and often its deficiency in people has a serious impact on their quality of life. Magnesium is involved in more than 600 biochemical reactions in our bodies, from energy production, protein and genes to the proper functioning of the nervous system and muscles. Its deficiency has many serious manifestations that we often do not even seem to attribute to something as trivial as magnesium deficiency. The need for magnesium increases due to stress, poor diet, alcohol consumption, stimulants, smoking. Other specific groups who need a higher intake of magnesium are athletes and pregnant or breastfeeding women.

Magnesium deficiency

It can manifest itself in cramps and muscle pain. Other symptoms include heart palpitations and rapid heartbeat, insomnia, anxiety and depression. Causes high blood pressure, migraines. The individual has difficulty concentrating, is tired and nervous.

What is magnesium bisglycinate good for

Magnesium bisglycinate is the organic form of magnesium that has the highest absorption rate (it enters the body easily), thanks to the binding of magnesium to 2 molecules of the amino acid glycine. Glycine forms imaginary pincers that protect magnesium until it reaches the small intestine. It is then released in the body and itself has a calming effect on the normal functioning of the nervous system, thus promoting the effect of magnesium. In addition to meat and bone broths, glycine is also found in many foods such as dairy products, fish, spinach, kale and legumes.

What is buffered magnesium bisglycinate

Magnesium bisglycinate itself has a low amount of elemental magnesium and therefore German researchers have exploited the buffering effect of bisglycinate to change the pH in the small intestine, which allows for increased absorption of an otherwise less bioavailable oxide, which nevertheless has a high concentration of elemental magnesium. Thanks to this, a high absorption rate of 80% is achieved, as well as a higher intake of elemental magnesium for the body (200 mg / 1 capsule / more than 50% of the daily dose). This advanced magnesium transport technology has been measured and demonstrated in several studies. The absorption rate of buffered magnesium bisglycinate is the same as that of regular magnesium bisglycinate, but for the same grams in a dose, the body absorbs more magnesium with its buffered form. This means that at the same dose, buffered bisglycinate delivers almost 70% more elemental magnesium to the tissue than regular bisglycinate.

Magnesium - Health claims according to EU Regulation 432/2012

Magnesium helps to reduce the rate of fatigue and exhaustion. Magnesium contributes to electrolyte balance. Magnesium contributes to normal energy metabolism. Magnesium contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function. Magnesium contributes to normal protein synthesis. Magnesium contributes to normal mental activity. Magnesium contributes to the maintenance of normal bone health. Magnesium contributes to the maintenance of normal teeth. Magnesium is involved in the process of cell division.

Dosing:
1 to 2 capsules after training, during stress or before bedtime. Magnesium bisglycinate is suitable for use after training and in the afternoon or evening for proper functioning of the nervous system and muscles due to its calming effects associated with glycine content. We recommend taking it on an empty stomach, as magnesium is much better absorbed on an empty stomach.
