Magnesium Malate Benefits

Magnesium malate contains magnesium, which is stored in bones and helps the body absorb calcium and malic acid, a natural fruit acid that is present in most of the body's cells.

  1. Aluminum Elimination

    • The malic acid in magnesium malate binds to any aluminum present in the body and eliminates it, allowing for healthy nerve cell growth and detoxification.

    Energy Production

    • Magnesium malate synthesizes adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is a nucleotide that stores energy in muscle tissue, and transforms it into a cellular energy source. The energetic producing properties of magnesium malate may be useful in treating fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome.

    Muscle Relaxation

    • Magnesium has been shown to relax muscles and is often used to treat headaches, uterine cramping and general muscle discomfort.

    Kidney Stone Prevention

    • According to the Urology Channel, people that do not get enough magnesium in their diet may be prone to kidney stone formation.

    Warning

    • Excessive magnesium malate intake may lead to diarrhea and stomach upset.
