Magnesium: an essential mineral for the body
Magnesium is an essential macromineral involved in hundreds of physiological processes in the body. It contributes to normal muscle and nerve function, supports energy metabolism, plays a role in cell division and protein synthesis, and is important for maintaining strong bones and teeth. Because the body cannot produce magnesium itself, an adequate intake through food or supplementation is essential to prevent deficiencies.
Forms of magnesium and absorption
Magnesium supplements are always bound to another substance, such as citrate, chelates or L-threonate. This binding influences how well magnesium is absorbed and how it is commonly used in the body. At Ergomax, magnesium is available in different formats, including capsules, powders, and liposomal formulations, allowing you to choose what best fits your routine.
Magnesium deficiency and daily needs
A magnesium deficiency can manifest in various ways, as the mineral is involved in many bodily systems. Commonly reported signs include muscle cramps, fatigue, restlessness, or reduced physical and mental resilience. Although magnesium is present in foods such as vegetables, nuts, grains, cocoa, and dairy, products, intake is not always sufficient. Supplementation can help ensure a consistent intake, especially during periods of increased demand such as physical activity, stress, or recovery.
