Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body and is needed by more than 300 enzymes to work properly. It supports healthy growth and development in children, particularly bone mass, and may help ease growing pains during rapid growth phases. Signs of low magnesium can include constipation, irritability, night-time muscle cramps, difficulty sleeping and teeth grinding.
You may see some intriguing colour shifts with this product. Rest assured it contains no artificial colours or flavours. It's naturally coloured with anthocyanins from black carrot extract; as these mix with water and the malic acid in the formula, they turn blue before settling into a dark red hue.
This formula uses a high-quality form of magnesium called magnesium bisglycinate, where the magnesium is bound to the amino acid glycine to improve absorption and bioavailability. It's also gentler on the stomach and less likely to cause digestive upset. Even so, some people may still notice loose stools at higher doses. If that happens, try halving your dose, for example taking one serve a day instead of two, then gradually building back up over a week or two to find the amount that suits you best.
