Magnesium is a trace mineral that is required by every cell in the body and is involved in several hundred different biochemical reactions. Half of the magnesium stores are found in the cells of body tissues and organs; and half are combined with calcium and phosphorus in the bone.

Magnesium, like calcium, is an essential bone matrix mineral that is required for healthy bone metabolism. Magnesium also supports cardiovascular health by helping to maintain healthy levels of cellular and plasma electrolytes, including calcium and potassium. It also contributes to the integrity and maintenance of the teeth.

Magnesium activates the enzymes necessary for a number of physiological functions, including neuromuscular contractions, cardiac function, and the regulation of the acid- alkaline balance in the body. It is also crucial to normal psychological function.

It is necessary for the metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids and fats; also for energy production, and the utilization of calcium, phosphorus, sodium, and potassium. This vital mineral also helps utilize B-complex vitamins, vitamin C, and vitamin E and contributes to normal protein synthesis.

This particular magnesium product is bound with the amino acid taurine. Taurine is required to create bile which helps detoxify the liver, lower cholesterol and support digestion of fats. It also supports the nervous system by activating the sedative neurotransmitter GABA.
