Magnesium Sport Bisglycinate Malate & Tri-dicitrateVitakruid

Magnesium Sport: a magnesium complex developed for athletes
Magnesium Sport has been specially developed to support the increased needs of athletes. While most supplements contain only one form of magnesium, this product stands out thanks to a unique combination of three high-quality variants. This means magnesium is absorbed via multiple pathways and made available in the body at different times.

The best forms of magnesium with high bioavailability
The elemental amount of magnesium in a magnesium supplement is often seen as a measure of quality. Although this amount is important, magnesium absorption is what determines bioavailability – in other words, how well the body actually absorbs and uses the mineral. Magnesium oxide, for example, contains a lot of elemental magnesium, but due to its low absorption the body ultimately makes little use of it.

The bioavailability of magnesium depends heavily on the form it is bound to. Inorganic variants are absorbed less well. Organically bound forms, such as magnesium citrate or malate, have better solubility and therefore higher absorption. Amino-acid chelated forms go a step further: because the mineral is bound to amino acids, it remains stable in the stomach and intestines and is utilised optimally by the body. That is why, in this complex, we have chosen three premium forms: magnesium bisglycinate, magnesium malate and magnesium tri-dicitrate.

Magnesium bisglycinate
Magnesium bisglycinate is a compound of magnesium with two molecules of the amino acid glycine. Glycine plays, among other things, a role in the body as a neurotransmitter and makes this form of magnesium particularly well absorbed. Via the amino-acid pathway, bisglycinate is absorbed efficiently, while remaining gentle on the stomach.

Magnesium malate
Magnesium malate is an organic form of magnesium bound to malic acid. This substance naturally occurs in energy metabolism (the citric acid cycle), the process responsible for the formation of ATP – the body’s energy carriers.

Magnesium tri-dicitrate
Magnesium tri-dicitrate differs from other magnesium compounds thanks to the combination of a relatively high elemental magnesium content (around 16%) and high bioavailability. Where inorganic forms such as magnesium oxide may contain a lot of elemental magnesium but are poorly absorbed, tri-dicitrate provides an effective dose that is well utilised by the body.

Support from multiple angles
With vitamin B6 and vitamin B12
Vitamins B6 and B12 have been added to support magnesium’s action optimally. For Magnesium Sport, pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P-5-P) and adenosylcobalamin have been chosen – the biologically active forms of vitamins B6 and B12. These variants have high bioavailability and are therefore used directly by the body. In addition, P-5-P is considered the safest form of vitamin B6.

L-taurine for a synergistic effect
L-taurine is an amino acid-like substance that naturally occurs in meat, fish and shellfish. L-taurine and magnesium have a synergistic effect, with L-taurine ensuring more efficient absorption of magnesium in the body.

Zinc bisglycinate – a well-absorbed form of zinc
In athletes, zinc reserves are used up more quickly, making adequate zinc even more important. That is why this formula uses zinc bisglycinate: an amino-acid chelated form with high bioavailability.
