A blend of magnesium salts and Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate for natural bowel function.

MAGNESIUM

Magnesium is a most important mineral, playing a vital role in over 350 different processes in the body including energy production, muscle function, bone formation, fatty acid metabolism, relaxation of muscles and the functioning of the heart, kidneys and brain as well as the nervous system.

Bowel function

Magnesium may also play a role in bowel function by encouraging water to be drawn into the colon, where it softens stools in the large colon making for a smooth, natural passage. In addition, magnesium’s role in the normal functioning of the muscles may encourage peristaltic movement of the
intestine wall, thereby helping intestinal transit.

Magnesium in the diet

Since magnesium is an essential nutrient necessary for a wide range of body functions, it is important to ensure adequate intake from the diet. However, today’s busy and demanding lifestyles may mean that it is difficult to follow a balanced diet. In addition, modern farming methods, commercial food
processing and overcooking can mean that the foods we eat may not be as rich as they could be in nutrients such as vitamins, minerals and amino acids.

Supplementation

Where the diet may be lacking, supplementing with magnesium can safeguard intake of this important nutrient. Ensuring adequate intake of magnesium in the diet may help maintain regular bowel movements.
We are including three different magnesium salts in this formulation to optimise bioavailability. In addition to this, we are adding Pyridoxine 5 Phosphate, a natural form of vitamin B6 to aid magnesium absorption.
