User questions & answers

Question:	Does this contain corn? Thank you

Question:	Is there soy in this vitamin
Answer:	I found a highly technical and reputable medical journal essay which described the actual efficacy of Black Seed Oil -- specifically, the 500mg oil-filled capsules. To make a long story short, the research proved Black Seed Oil works to improve a myriad of disorders, including glucose control in diabetics, and overall general health and energy levels.The research found that the adult dosage is most effective at two (2) 500mg oil-filled capsules per 24-hour period, once in the morning and once in the evening. Increasing the dosage -- for instance, taking three (3) 500mg capsules per day -- did not provide additional benefits. Decreasing the dosage to one (1) 500mg capsule per day provided no observable benefits.
Question:	How much malate per serving or pill? Thanks
Answer:	This is the ground seeds in a capsule. The black seed oil pills are cold pressed

Product description

Why take Magnesium?

Magnesium is an essential mineral that helps to ensure normal muscle function (which helps cramp defense for leg cramps), the balance of electrolytes in the body, strong and healthy bones and teeth, normal function of the nervous system as well as promoting a deep and restful sleep**. Deficiency in Magnesium is very common in the US which is why supplementation is highly recommended.

In this chelated form with Malic acid, the blend promotes energy production. Malic acid is a metabolite in the Krebs energy cycle, the set of biochemical reactions used to produce 90% of all energy in the cells of the body.

Malic acid has the added benefit of being able to also rid unwanted aluminium from the body. It has been shown to readily cross the blood-brain-barrier and bind with Aluminium, working to draw it away from the tubulin enzyme so that Magnesium can plug into the receptor sites instead. It’s unique ability to do so means Aluminium can be ushered out of the body and thus prevent unwanted build up.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does magnesium come in chewable or liquid form? The pills are too big for me to swallow even if I cut them in half
Answer:	You can, but it goes down easier if you don't. The coating makes it easier to swallow and hides the taste. But when I broke it in half, the sharp edges/corners actually made it more difficult, even though it was technically smaller. Just take a big drink and swallow it whole. It's better than those corners.
Question:	How long before you feel a difference
Answer:	According to the listing on LifeEssentials.com, 3 tablets contain 3.75g of Magnesium Malate Trihydrate. Since this is a compound, it then details 425 mg (142mg/tablet) of Magnesium and 2.5 g (833mg per tablet) of Malic Acid. This is great for people who specifically are needing the benefits of Malic Acid, as this is one of the highest amount I've seen so far per tablet.
Question:	where are they made
Answer:	I think these tablets are too large to swallow. I take a lot of supplements, but I have a limit on the size of the pill that I can swallow. With these tablets, I crush them. Because they have a bitter or chalky taste, I make sure I have some chocolate to to with them to make taking this pill more palatable.
Question:	what other ingredients are in this
Answer:	1250 mg would seem to be the mass of each tablet. Only about 15% of the mass of magnesium malate is the magnesium, which is the nutrient you should be concerned about. The rest is the malate, which carries the magnesium and helps your body absorb it. You want to calculate your dosage on the mass of magnesium, not the mass of the whole tablet. To get 425 mg per 3 tablets means each table is 11.33% magnesium. That is a little less than the 15% mentioned above, so the difference would be the other ingredients that bind the tablet together and perhaps coat it.

User questions & answers

Question:	what are the best times of day to take innovix advanced magnesium tabs
Answer:	I am assuming it does not have sterates as it is not listed in the ingredients. I would suggest asking your pharmacist if you have concerns. I have been taking this supplement with no side effects. It has helped in reducing my leg cramps.
Question:	All the other mag malate products tell the amount of malate acid content per serving .This duzn't seem to say on the label. Anyone know
Answer:	There are two forms of magnesium malate in this, the first is Magnesium Malate Trihydrate at 475 mg. The second is Malic Acid: 2.5 grams (or 250 mg). Just a heads up, supplements are natural alternatives to medicine, but not considered medicine.
Question:	How much elemental magnesium is delivered per serving
Answer:	Threshold Enterprises, Scott’s Valley, CA
Question:	Magnesium citrate vs. malate -- which is better? I've read citrate delivers more of the supplement to your system than malate -- is this true
Answer:	Calcium tightens whereas magnesium relaxes. I've used this magnesium for a decade or more & it certainly helps the muscles. I would think it would help your pinched nerve along w/ b-complex as well. I've read many years ago that herniated discs are the result of a copper deficiency along w/needing cal/mag/vit d because minerals work together. You want to keep your copper/zinc in balance. You may also want to have a consult w/a chiropractor, but minerals & some vitamins should help you, many things out of whack in our bodies are due to lack of minerals & not lack of a pharm drug. For instance my husband's pinched nerve in his neck keeps at bay from taking b-complex alone. Hope my reply helped you, good luck!!
