Magnesium Supplements
Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays a key role in many functions across the body. It is a foundational nutrient for overall wellbeing - from supporting your muscles and nervous system to a healthy response to stress. At ApexVita we stock a wide range of magnesium supplements in capsule and powder formats, so you can find the form that suits your routine and goals. Every member of our team is a certified nutritionist, so you can choose with confidence.
Why Take Magnesium?
Magnesium is found in foods like leafy greens, nuts, seeds and whole grains, but many people do not reach the recommended daily intake. A quality magnesium supplement may help support:
- Normal muscle function and easing the occasional cramp when dietary intake is low
- A healthy nervous system
- The body's normal response to stress
- Normal energy production
- Restful sleep and relaxation, particularly forms like glycinate (1)
This makes magnesium a popular choice for athletes, active people, and anyone managing everyday physical tension, sleep or stress.
Choosing the Right Form of Magnesium
- Glycinate (bisglycinate) - magnesium bound to glycine; well absorbed and gentle on the stomach. The popular choice for sleep, relaxation and evening recovery.
- Citrate - well absorbed and good in water; supports everyday wellbeing and digestion, though higher doses can loosen the stools.
- Oxide - high in elemental magnesium but poorly absorbed; common in budget products.
- Malate - magnesium with malic acid, often chosen for energy and daytime use, and generally easy on the stomach.
Capsule or Powder?
Capsules are quick and convenient - great for travel and a regular daily dose. Powders let you adjust your serve and mix into water or a smoothie, and many come flavoured. Whichever you choose, our range is from reputable brands held to our standards for quality and purity.
How to Take and Safety
Follow the directions on the label. Magnesium fits easily into a broader routine - many people take a glycinate in the evening for sleep, or pair magnesium with their pre-workout. Higher doses of some forms can have a laxative effect, so build up gradually. If symptoms persist, or you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a health condition, talk to a healthcare professional.
