Then this \u003cstrong\u003emagnesium citrate powder\u003c\/strong\u003e is the cleanest option. The ingredient list states exactly one thing: magnesium citrate. One level teaspoon of about 3 grams provides 450 mg of elemental magnesium, 120% of the reference intake. The container holds 227 grams, enough for about 76 servings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA powder with zero additives\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTablets and capsules always require technical excipients: fillers to add volume, binders to hold the tablet together, and sometimes a coating. A pure powder does not need any of that. This product contains literally one ingredient and nothing else. For those who consciously avoid additives or react sensitively to them, that is a welcome feature. The magnesium citrate is also fully reacted: the magnesium and citrate are completely chemically bonded, not a loose mixture. Per teaspoon, you get 450 mg of elemental magnesium from over 3000 mg of magnesium citrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSelf-dosing, from half to a full teaspoon\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe advantage of powder over a tablet is the flexibility of dosing. A full teaspoon provides 450 mg of elemental magnesium, while half a teaspoon provides 225 mg. This allows you to gradually build up if magnesium is new to you, adjust the intake to what you already get from food, or split the dose between morning and evening. That is not possible with a fixed tablet. Magnesium contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and to the normal functioning of the muscles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to safely dissolve the powder\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMix 1 level teaspoon in at least 230 ml of cold water or another clear, cold liquid. Add the powder slowly while stirring until it is completely dissolved. The cold liquid is not a suggestion but a requirement: pure magnesium citrate can generate some heat when it comes into contact with liquid, and enough cold water absorbs that reaction before you consume it. Once dissolved, you can stir the mixture into a juice or smoothie to taste. Take it once a day, preferably with a meal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho this powder is a good choice for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose the powder if you want zero additives, want to determine your own dose, or do not want to swallow tablets and capsules. It is also completely vegan and non-GMO. If you prefer a fixed dose without measuring, the Magnesium Citrate tablets or Magnesium Citrate Softgels from NOW Foods are the alternative. This product is sold by weight and not by volume, so the container sometimes appears less full than you expect. Not produced with wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, shellfish, nuts, or sesame. For those who want to precisely control their intake, magnesium citrate powder provides the control that a fixed tablet lacks: you scoop out exactly what you need, dissolve it, and you are done. This is why experienced users also often choose this powder over a capsule. Store it dry and tightly sealed, and it will remain loose and easy to dissolve.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NOW Foods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43835398553820,"sku":"Now-008","price":20.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/products\/Magnesiumcitraatpurepoedernowfoods.jpg?v=1678715748","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/now-foods-magnesium-citrate-227gram","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
