Directions
Take 3 capsules daily (100mg per capsule), spread throughout the day, each with 200ml of water.
Note: Spreading the dosage out across the day can improve absorption, since only a limited amount of magnesium can be absorbed at a time. Ideal intake times for magnesium include the morning just after waking, before lunch or after sports and in the evening before sleeping. Taking magnesium on an empty stomach or 30 minutes before a meal can improve absorption.
Daily Requirements
The German Nutrition Society recommends a daily intake of between 300mg–400mg of magnesium (NRV: 375mg). However, individual magnesium needs may vary according to biochemical factors, and can be significantly increased during stressful periods.
Note: According to the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR), magnesium intake through supplements should not exceed a maximum daily amount of 250mg of magnesium in food supplements in order to avoid a laxative effect (mild diarrhoea). The maximum amount applies to persons aged 4 years and older; for infants under 4 years of age, there is no such guidance relating to a daily maximum due to lack of data.
The BfR recommends that the daily dose be divided into at least two separate doses per day. This is because scientific data shows that magnesium tolerability is increased when intake is spread between two or more portions per day.
Food Supplement
Do not exceed the recommended daily intake. Food supplements are not a substitute for a balanced, varied diet and healthy lifestyle. Keep out of reach of young children.
Contraindications
No other products containing magnesium should be taken at the same time. In case of a laxative effect, stop taking the product.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.
