Product Notes:
Some studies indicate that magnesium malate is the most bioavailable form of five common magnesium compounds.
In addition to helping support healthy bones and teeth, magnesium malate may be of particular interest to those suffering from fibromyalgia, since studies have found a reduction in pain symptoms among those taking it in that population. This may also apply to those suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (since it might not only reduce muscle pain but also increase energy, as Malic Acid assists our bodies' Krebs cycle, which converts food into energy).
