Magnesium Malate – 450 mg of elemental magnesium Amando Perez Magnesium Malate contains 3000 mg of di-magnesium malate per serving. Di-magnesium is a patented form of magnesium consisting of one malic acid molecule to which two magnesium molecules are attached. This magnesium source exhibits high bioavailability due to the natural bonding of the malic acid. Malic acid is part of the citric acid cycle, which is essential for the production of ATP. ATP provides energy during physical exertion. Magnesium is an essential trace element that contributes to normal muscle function and protein synthesis, among other things. Approximately 300 enzymes are currently known to require magnesium for their activity. The body can absorb and utilize magnesium malate particularly well.
