Magnesium Complex
Magnesium is an essential mineral important for many functions in the body, including muscles, nerves, energy metabolism, and bones.
A good supply depends not only on the amount of magnesium but also on how it is absorbed by the body. The Magnesium Complex from Dr. Wolz combines fast-acting organic magnesium compounds with marine magnesium from seawater, which is absorbed more slowly and can help provide a steady supply throughout the day. What sets this product apart, in line with Dr Wolz’s philosophy, is that rather than relying on a single magnesium compound, this formulation combines three different forms of magnesium (a triple complex). As different compounds are absorbed in the gut via different transport pathways and in different pH zones, this combination ensures excellent absorption and tolerability (optimal bioavailability).
This combination produces a synergistic effect:
- Rapid vs. long-term supply: Whilst citrate and bisglycinate are rapidly absorbed by the body, marine magnesium oxide ensures a sustained, steady supply to the body’s magnesium stores over a longer period.
- Gentle on the gastrointestinal tract: By utilising different compounds and transport pathways, the risk of digestive complaints (such as loose stools) typically associated with high-dose magnesium is minimised.
Why not all magnesium is not the same.
Magnesium comes in different forms that vary in their bioavailability and absorption rate. Since the body does not fully absorb magnesium, the amount alone is not what matters most – the quality and combination of magnesium forms are key.
The Magnesium Complex by Dr. Wolz is designed with this in mind: It combines carefully selected magnesium sources to support a balanced daily intake.
- Organically bound magnesium, such as magnesium citrate and the chelated complex magnesium bisglycinate, is absorbed quickly and made readily available to the body (fast-acting effect)
- Marine magnesium from natural seawater is absorbed more slowly, supporting a sustained release (slow-release effect)
This well-designed combination provides a balanced magnesium concept – ideal for daily supplementation.
