Vitakruid Magnesium Complex Taurate Malate BisglycinateMagnesium in food
Magnesium is found in many different foods, but especially seeds are very rich in this mineral. In addition, green vegetables, grains, nuts, bananas, and cocoa are also good sources. In the Netherlands, we get most of our magnesium from bread, rice, grain products, dairy (alternatives), and other non-alcoholic beverages.

Magnesium Complex: four well-absorbed forms in one jar!
With Magnesium Complex, you get four well-absorbed forms of magnesium that we normally offer separately, now in one convenient supplement. This means you can benefit from the unique advantages of magnesium malate, taurate, bisglycinate, and citrate. So you have a versatile supplement at home!
Magnesium forms with the best absorbability
The different forms of magnesium can be divided into two categories: organic and inorganic bound. The organic forms – such as magnesium malate, taurate, bisglycinate, and citrate – are better bioavailable and are absorbed better.
Optimal absorption through amino-chelated forms
When magnesium is linked to an amino acid – as in magnesium taurate and magnesium malate – the mineral is better protected against stomach acids. These variants, known as amino-chelated magnesium forms, have a stronger structure that keeps them intact until they reach the intestines. This results in better absorption and fewer stomach and intestinal complaints compared to unchelated forms.
Taurate and bisglycinate
Magnesium bisglycinate and taurate are both organic, amino-chelated forms of magnesium. Magnesium bisglycinate consists of magnesium and two (bis) glycine molecules, while magnesium taurate is chelated with L-taurine, an amino acid-like substance.
When magnesium is bound to glycine or L-taurine, it can more easily cross the blood-brain barrier. As a result, these forms of magnesium are better absorbed in brain tissue.
Citrate and malate
Magnesium Complex also contains magnesium malate and citrate. Here, magnesium is bound to malic acid (malate) and citric acid (citrate). These acids are both part of the citric acid cycle, which provides energy to our cells. Moreover, these forms of magnesium are relatively well absorbed in muscle tissue.
Magnesium Complex contains B6 in the form of pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P-5-P). This form has better bioavailability and is the safest form of vitamin B6.
Magnesium Complex capsules for easy swallowing
Some found the Magnesium 200 Complex tablets too large and difficult to swallow. That's why we now offer the same product in capsule form. These capsules contain the same high-quality ingredients as the tablets, but are much easier to take due to their smaller size.
Vitamin B6 as pyridoxal-5-phosphate:
Vitamin B6 has been added to the formula to support the action of magnesium.
The vitamin contributes to a good energy supply in the muscles and activates the body's natural energy.
It is also beneficial for good mental balance and concentration.
- Magnesium plays a role in bone formation and maintaining strong bones.
- Magnesium is good for brain function, mood, cell division, memory, learning performance, and concentration.
- Magnesium helps maintain normal protein synthesis, a good electrolyte balance, and a normal energy-yielding metabolism.
- Magnesium is important for strong teeth.
- Magnesium is good for the muscles and the nervous system.
- Magnesium has a beneficial effect on reducing fatigue and lethargy.
- Vitamin B6 is important for the production of red blood cells, protein production, and cysteine synthesis.
