Osavi Magnesium Citrate + B6, 375mg + 4.2mg - 90 vcaps

If you care about the proper functioning of your muscles and want to maintain vitality every day - pay attention to magnesium in your diet. Magnesium affects the proper functioning of the nervous system and is involved in many important physiological processes for our body. Both magnesium and vitamin B6 contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and help maintain normal psychological functions.

Adequate magnesium intake is essential for the optimal functioning of many organs. Magnesium acts as a cofactor for about 600 enzymes and is involved in, among others, in muscle contractility, protein synthesis, thermoregulation, maintenance of the osteoarticular system and regulation of blood pressure. It takes part in maintaining homeostasis of the electrolyte economy, as well as in the synthesis of ATP (adenosine-5′-triphosphate). It regulates the level of glucose in the body, which is necessary to maintain energy throughout the day. Magnesium together with vitamin B6 contributes to the maintenance of proper energy metabolism, helps in the work of the nervous system, maintains proper psychological functions and contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. People exposed to stress may have lower levels of magnesium in the body [1]. In addition, it was noticed that low concentrations of the element may be associated with increased production of free radicals contributing to premature ageing of the body [2].

The causes of magnesium deficiency include stress, disorders of the gastrointestinal tract and kidneys, eating disorders, medications, high fibre intake, alcohol abuse, as well as practising intense sports. Symptoms of magnesium deficiency may include headaches, poor mood and well-being, lack of vitality, poor quality of sleep, heart disorders, tremors and muscle cramps, as well as erectile dysfunction in men [3]. Therefore, our diet should not lack the following sources of magnesium: pumpkin seeds, nuts, cocoa, whole grains, avocados, legumes, and in periods of increased demand, consider supplementation. You can find vitamin B6 in whole grains, fish, meat, legumes, egg yolk and bananas.
