HealthAid MagCitra Magnesium Citrate is a mineral that has been bound to citric acid to improve its bioavailability. This makes it easier to process to perform its more than 300 functions in the human body.
MagCitra is Magnesium Citrate prepared by HealthAid to provide the body with a highly bioavailable mineral that helps to relax muscles. It also promotes recovery after sport, as it also helps to balance electrolytes to prevent cramps, stiffness and dehydration.
This is because it is one of the mineral salts found in the blood that is lost at an accelerated rate during sporting activity. Hence, its consumption helps to reduce fatigue, while also supporting basal metabolism to increase energy and improve heart function and the transport of nutrients to each cell.
Magnesium is also necessary for the synthesis of calcium and phosphorus, thus contributing to the formation of strong teeth and bones. It also blocks parathyroid hormone, a substance that causes bone deterioration, which is why low magnesium levels lead to brittle bone problems.
In addition, magnesium helps relax the nervous system to prevent and relieve stress and anxiety, because it stimulates GABA receptors. These are neurotransmitters that regulate brain activity, decreasing it when excitability appears. This is how this trace element promotes a state of calm and rest, as it improves the quality of sleep, especially when it has been affected by nervous disorders.
