Are you looking for a simple, affordable way to get magnesium every day? This magnesium citrate from NOW Foods comes in tablets containing 200mg of magnesium. Two tablets per day provide a total of 400mg, well over the full reference intake. Convenient if you want a fixed daily amount of magnesium.
Magnesium is a mineral that your body does not produce itself. It is found in more than three hundred enzymes (proteins that initiate chemical reactions in your cells). Think of converting food into usable energy and creating new proteins. Many people wonder what magnesium does exactly. In short: magnesium contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. And magnesium contributes to the normal function of the muscles. Your nerves need it too: magnesium contributes to the normal function of the nervous system. By the way, most of the magnesium in your body is in your bones, and magnesium contributes to the maintenance of normal bones.
Magnesium is never found alone in a supplement. It is always combined with another substance. In these tablets, that is citric acid. Magnesium citrate dissolves well in water. Magnesium oxide, another commonly used form, contains more magnesium per gram but dissolves less well in water.
The daily dose of 400mg of magnesium is divided into two tablets. This has a practical reason. Smaller portions are more comfortable for many people's stomachs. If you take one tablet with breakfast and one with dinner, you naturally spread out your intake. A bottle of 100 tablets lasts 50 days. Good to know: citrate has a slightly laxative effect at higher doses. If you notice this, move the second tablet to a different time or take it with a larger meal. If you prefer a smaller dose, one tablet per day is also perfectly fine.
Magnesium is found mainly in green leafy vegetables, nuts, seeds, legumes, and whole grains. Magnesium contributes to normal psychological function. By the way: more is not always better. Keep in mind what you already get from your food and any other supplements, and stay within the recommended dose of two tablets per day.
NOW Foods makes these tablets in the United States, in a GMP-certified factory (GMP stands for Good Manufacturing Practice, a quality standard for production). It remains a simple product: just magnesium as citrate, without added herbs or vitamins. This way you know exactly what you are taking, and you can easily combine it with a multivitamin or other supplements you already use. Anyone looking for magnesium in citrate form is well served by these magnesium citrate tablets.
Two tablets together provide 107% of the reference intake. If you want less, simply take one.
Magnesium combined with citric acid dissolves well in your stomach.
With 100 tablets and 2 per day, one bottle lasts almost two months.
NOW Foods produces and tests its supplements itself, according to the GMP quality standard for manufacturing.

It provides magnesium, a mineral that takes part in hundreds of processes in your cells. Magnesium contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the normal functioning of the muscles. In this tablet, the magnesium is bound to citric acid.
With a meal, spread throughout the day. For example, take one tablet with breakfast and one with dinner. Smaller doses are easier on the stomach for many people.
The reference intake for adults is 375mg per day. Two tablets provide 400mg, and one tablet provides 200mg. If you already get a lot of magnesium from your diet, one tablet a day is often enough.
It can in some people, especially if they take the full daily dose at once. Citrate draws some water into your bowels, which can have a mild laxative effect. Spread the two tablets throughout the day and take them with food, then you usually won't have any problems with this.
It is an excipient in the coating. It prevents the tablets from sticking together. The amount is very small and does not count towards the calcium supplement.
They are bound to different partners. Citrate is bound to citric acid and has a slightly laxative effect at high doses. Bisglycinate is bound to the amino acid glycine and is gentler on the bowels, but usually more expensive per milligram of magnesium.
