<b>Optimum Magnesium - NEW Look, Same Trusted Product!</b> - Magnesium plays a key role in over over 300 biochemical reactions in the human body. Development and maintenance of bones and teeth; the metabolism of carbohydrates, blood glucose, fats, and proteins; the formation of cells and tissues; and the maintenance of muscle function, including cardiac muscle can claim magnesium as a critical component. Optimum Magnesium contains Albion’s TRAACS magnesium lysinate glycinate (mineral amino acid chelate) and Albion’s chelated dimagnesium malate—both formulated for enhanced absorption. Malic acid (from di-magnesium malate) is active in the Krebs cycle and provides nutritive support for normal, healthy muscular energy. Malic acid may support antioxidant systems by enhancing glutathione and antioxidant enzymes.* <b><p></p>✔ Magnesium Lysyl Glycinate Chelate</b>, a mineral amino acid chelate delivers a complex with higher absorption rates. Since the body can efficiently absorb dipeptides (two amino acids linked together), Albion’s TRAACS magnesium lysyl glycinate is an optimum delivery system for magnesium. Albion TRAACS patented mineral amino acid chelates are resistant to competitive minerals, do not lessen effectiveness of vitamins, and pose a lowered risk of overdosing.* <p></p> <b>✔ Di-Magnesium Malate</b>, also within Optimum Magnesium, contains 69% malate (malic acid). Malic acid is utilized because it enhances magnesium. Magnesium and malate play crucial roles in energy production under aerobic conditions or when decreased oxygen levels are present. Malic acid is known to show protective benefits by binding aluminum.* <p></p> All Pure TheraPro Rx Formulas Meet or Exceed cGMP Quality Standards.
