Ingredients explained
Magnesium
Magnesium acts as a cofactor for hundreds of enzymes involved in ATP production and helps regulate muscle contraction and relaxation by balancing calcium signalling.
Caution: May cause loose stools in some people; taking with food and splitting the dose can improve tolerance.
Malic acid
Malic acid is an intermediate in the Krebs cycle that participates in cellular energy generation from carbohydrates and fats.
Caution: May cause mild gastrointestinal discomfort in sensitive individuals, especially on an empty stomach.
How they work together
Magnesium contributes to enzymatic steps that generate ATP, while malic acid feeds into the Krebs cycle, so together they target complementary stages of cellular energy production. Magnesium also supports normal muscle relaxation, which pairs with malic acid’s role in energy metabolism for everyday muscular function.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult a healthcare professional before use.
Who should be cautious: People taking thyroid medication, certain antibiotics, or other medicines that may be affected by magnesium absorption may need to separate dosing and discuss timing with a healthcare professional.

- Suitable For Vegetarians
Source Naturals Magnesium Malate is a compound of magnesium and malic acid. It supports proper muscle function, cardiovascular health, and energy production. Malic acid is a natural fruit acid that is present in most cells in the body and is an intermediate in the Krebs cycle, where energy is captured during the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats. Magnesium is an essential cofactor for over 300 enzymatic reactions in metabolism, ATP synthesis and energy production. Magnesium plays important roles in muscle relaxation, because of its functions as a cofactor for enzymes and because of its ability to counterbalance calcium in the cell.
