Properties:
Magnesium is a vital element that is found in all tissues of the body and is necessary for the normal functioning of cells and is involved in most metabolic reactions. In particular, it is involved in the regulation of the transmission of nerve impulses and muscle contraction.
The body receives magnesium through food. A lack of magnesium in the body can be observed when the diet is disrupted, when the need for magnesium increases, or when there is an imbalance in the intake, metabolism and excretion of magnesium (for example, with increased physical and mental stress, stress, during pregnancy, when using diuretics).
Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) is involved in many metabolic processes and in the regulation of nervous system metabolism. Vitamin B6 improves the absorption of magnesium from the gastrointestinal tract and its penetration into cells.
