Magnesium is for Power, Stress and Energy

Magnesium is the most commonly depleted major mineral under stress. I always recommend that magnesium supplementation, along with a top quality B Vitamin Complex, are your first port of call with stress, tiredness, irritability, sleeping disturbances and general malaise. But did you know that there are over 30 different forms of this crucial mineral available, and many health-food shop and pharmacy purchased magnesium supplements are actually "cheap" forms and are poorly absorbed? Solgar's citrate form of magnesium is a well absorbed form for superior results especially in those with poor digestion. Magnesium citrate's oral absorption¹ is excellent as it is less dependent upon hydrochloric acid (stomach function) for absorption compared with the common magnesium oxide.

Please visit our magnesium page for much more information about this critical mineral.

How do you know if you need magnesium supplementation? Take two tablets daily of Solgar's Magnesium Citrate for a week, you will almost certainly notice a "lift" in energy and wellbeing if you are stressed, drink alcohol and/or coffee daily, have high energy requirements yet feel fatigued often.
