HOW IT WORKS
The human body needs magnesium for many essential biochemical processes. It’s one of the key minerals in the body and is involved in maintaining healthy muscle function, nerve conduction, producing energy and supporting cardiovascular system function.

Muscle health and magnesium
Muscular cramps and muscle weakness are just a couple of the symptoms of insufficient magnesium consumption from the diet. They occur because magnesium affects the calcium found in muscle cells, which influences how our muscles contract and relax.

Exercising? Think magnesium
You might need more magnesium in your diet if you’re exercising. When you’re exercising, you often sweat more, and magnesium can be excreted in your sweat. Magnesium can help your muscles to perform better and last longer when being used for exercise, and also helps with your energy levels.

Magnesium for blood sugar balance and heart health
This important mineral is used by the body (with vitamin B1) to help to metabolise, or break down, carbohydrates and sugars consumed in the diet. Magnesium also plays a role cardiovascular system works when your dietary intake is inadequate.

Magnesium helps PMS
Did you know that research has shown that women with premenstrual syndrome (PMS) have lower magnesium levels in their serum than women who don’t have PMS?1 Mood changes, breast pain and feelings of aggression are some of the symptoms of PMS, and magnesium can help to reduce these symptoms.

Bioavailable magnesium
Fusion Magnesium Advanced contains magnesium glycinate; an organic type of magnesium which is highly bioavailable. This means it is readily absorbed and available for the body to use. Magnesium glycinate is a very stable compound, so it reaches the intestines without being broken down, which further aids its absorption.

Add it to your favourite drink
The tasty Magnesium Advanced Watermelon powder (or Lemon-Lime Zing flavour) can be enjoyed in your smoothie, water, sports drink or juice. It’s a natural flavour, which contains thaumatin (from katemfe, a fruit) which helps it to be naturally sweet.
