We aimed to find out how magnesium chloride influences liver health and oxidative stress in rats on a high-fat diet.
In our study, groups of rats were fed either a normal diet, a high-fat diet, or a high-fat diet supplemented with magnesium chloride.
We found that those receiving magnesium showed lower levels of liver enzymes and oxidative stress markers compared to the high-fat diet group alone.
This suggests that magnesium chloride could help protect against the harmful effects of a high-fat diet, although its efficacy in humans needs further investigation.

We examined how deep sea water (DSW), rich in magnesium, influences high cholesterol and blood pressure. In our study, we tested three different dosages of DSW on spontaneous hypertensive rats over eight weeks.
The results were promising; both systolic and diastolic pressures decreased. Specifically, higher doses of DSW significantly lowered serum cholesterol levels and reduced fat accumulation in liver tissues, showing potential protective effects against heart disease.
Overall, our findings suggest that DSW could be a beneficial alternative for managing cholesterol and blood pressure.

We explored how drinking deep seawater (DSW), rich in magnesium, impacts cholesterol levels in people with high cholesterol. In a study involving 42 volunteers, participants consumed 1050 mL of DSW, magnesium-fortified water, or reverse osmosis water daily for six weeks. The results were promising: those who drank DSW experienced a notable decrease in total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol over time. Additionally, blood samples revealed that DSW also reduced markers of oxidative stress. This suggests that DSW may offer a valuable option for managing high cholesterol.

This magnesium is highly dosed and compatible, presented at a great price. I used to suffer from calf cramps at night, but since taking these capsules, they have disappeared entirely.

Normalised blood pressure
1 people found this helpful
After my second child within two years, my blood pressure soared, often hitting 170. Following my therapist's recommendation for pressure-reducing pills, I began searching for vitamins to help normalise it and discovered this product. For four years, I’ve taken it without any bisoprolol-type tablets, and my high blood pressure issues have ceased. I take one capsule daily with vitamin B6 for better magnesium absorption. I recommend it.

I consume one capsule daily throughout the summer. I appreciate the gentle effects, as it helped alleviate my anxiety and nervousness. Consequently, I now get ample sleep, and I feel light in the mornings. My previous stool issues have also disappeared. I highly recommend it.

We examined how magnesium levels in urine relate to cardiovascular disease risk factors, focusing on cholesterol and other health measures. In a large, diverse group of 4,211 participants from 50 countries, we found that higher urinary magnesium was linked to lower body mass index, blood pressure, and total cholesterol.
Notably, people with the highest magnesium levels experienced significantly lower risks for obesity and hypertension compared to those with the lowest levels. These findings suggest that increasing magnesium intake may have meaningful benefits for heart health.

We analyzed data from 11,686 women over 45 in the Women's Health Study to understand how magnesium intake affects inflammation and metabolic syndrome.
Our findings revealed that higher magnesium intake was linked to lower levels of C-reactive protein, a marker of inflammation.
Women with the highest magnesium consumption experienced a 27% reduced risk of metabolic syndrome compared to those with the lowest intake, particularly among those who were heavier or past smokers.

Half-effective formula
4 people found this helpful
The magnesium in this product includes citrate, glycinate, succinate, and oxide. While citrate and glycinate are effective with good digestibility, I couldn't find information on succinate's absorption, and oxide is poorly assimilated (about 5%). Thus, the product is at best partially effective. Despite the attractive price and the brand's strong reputation, I see no reason to spend money on it.

Lowered blood pressure
1 people found this helpful
I purchased the 500mg version to enhance my sleep quality. After taking it before bed, I fell asleep quickly and stayed asleep without interruptions. Additionally, my blood pressure, which was previously a bit high at 125-135, reduced to 105-115, suggesting an effect on lowering blood pressure. However, I experienced dizziness and slight nausea after consuming it, leading me to believe it felt more like a laxative.

Low absorption issue
Magnesium oxide has low bioavailability and may require a higher dosage to achieve proper levels. This increases the likelihood of digestive side effects. I’ve noticed minimal benefits, and it's unfortunate I read the composition after receiving it.

Fewer migraines
I’ve been struggling with migraines, which have significantly impacted my life. Since regularly taking magnesium supplements, it seems I’ve experienced fewer migraines. If you're a migraine sufferer like me, I highly suggest integrating magnesium into your routine.

Improved digestion
1 people found this helpful
This product boasts high quality, featuring several types of magnesium for enhanced absorption. It aids in blood pressure, brain function, bones, and gut health. I use it post-lunch with calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin K2 for better bone absorption. I’m seeing results, as my constipation has resolved and my bone densitometry has significantly improved. I continue to recommend it.

Low absorption issue
3 people found this helpful
This is a quality product with a higher magnesium dosage than many similar offerings. Importantly, 500mg exceeds daily magnesium intake recommendations. However, the downside is that it mainly contains magnesium oxide, which has low absorption. Next time, I will seek out other brands that assure better absorption in their formulas.

Magnesium shows limited cholesterol impact
We explored how magnesium sulfate and EDTA could influence cholesterol levels and atherosclerosis in rabbits. During the study, rabbits were fed a cholesterol-rich diet and treated with either chelation liquid or saline.
The results highlighted that while the CHL treatment helped lower serum calcium and reduce aortic atheroma, it did not lead to statistically significant differences in cholesterol and triglyceride levels compared to the control group.
Overall, these findings suggest that magnesium may have a preventative role in high cholesterol but show limited therapeutic benefits once the cholesterol diet is stopped.
