Key Ingredients Explained

Magnesium

Magnesium is an essential mineral involved in numerous normal physiological processes.

It contributes to normal muscle function, normal functioning of the nervous system and normal energy-yielding metabolism. Magnesium also contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, normal psychological function, electrolyte balance and maintenance of normal bones and teeth.

Magnesium Taurate

Magnesium taurate is the form of magnesium used in this product. BioCare describes the formula as a complex of magnesium and taurine, providing a form of magnesium used by the body.

Taurine

Taurine is an amino acid-like compound naturally found in the body and in a variety of foods. It forms part of the magnesium taurate complex used in this product.

There are currently no authorised EU health claims for taurine itself, so the recognised nutritional benefits described for this product relate specifically to its magnesium content.

How to Take

Take 1 capsule twice daily with food, or as professionally directed.

A convenient routine is:

• 1 capsule with breakfast
• 1 capsule with lunch or dinner

Swallow with water.

BioCare's recommended daily intake is 2 capsules per day.
