Each Magnesium capsule contains 100 mg of magnesium in citrate form to support macronutrient metabolism, bone health, and muscle function. Magnesium plays an essential role in muscle contraction and relaxation, and may also contribute to the maintenance of muscle function in physically active older adults. Older adults, especially women, tend to have lower dietary intake and absorption rates of magnesium. In the first clinical trial to evaluate the impact of magnesium on muscle performance in older adults, daily magnesium supplementation for 12 months significantly improved physical performance. One hundred and thirty-nine healthy, physically active women aged 65 and older were randomly assigned to receive a placebo or 300 mg of elemental magnesium from magnesium oxide. Following supplementation, participants in the magnesium group experienced clinically relevant improvements in walking speed, with an average increase of 12 meters per minute. Walking speed is typically used as an independent variable for diagnosing age-related muscle loss. Chair stand test scores were also associated with significant improvement, indicating improved lower-limb strength and balance.
