Description

YW – Magnesium L- Threonate (1300mg) 60 Caps

Magnesium L-Threonate Plus is involved in numerous physiological processes throughout the body, including energy metabolism, muscle and nerve function, and protein synthesis. In the brain, magnesium plays a crucial role in synaptic plasticity, which is important for learning, memory, and overall cognitive function.

The product contents are described as:
Each dose of 2 capsules contains:
  • Magnesium L-Threonate … 1 300 mg (providing ~ 80 mg elemental magnesium)
  • Sun-Phosphatidylserine … 40 mg
  • Vitamin K2 (Menaquinone MK-7) … 100 mcg
  • Selenium … 100 mcg

Directions for use: Take 2 capsules once daily, with meals or as directed by your healthcare provider. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose unless under supervision.

If you are taking antibiotics, diuretics, or blood-pressure medications, consult your health-care provider before use.

✅ Potential Benefits:

• Brain & cognitive health: Because the form is Magnesium L‑Threonate (MgT), which research indicates can cross the blood‑brain barrier and elevate magnesium levels in the brain, this may support memory, synaptic plasticity and neuronal health.

• Improved sleep quality & daytime functioning: A randomized controlled trial found MgT improved both deep/REM sleep stages and daytime alertness/energy in adults with self‑reported sleep problems.

• Mood, stress & mental alertness support: Some studies and reviews suggest MgT may help improve mood, reduce anxiety/stress and enhance mental clarity.

• Neuroprotection & support in ageing: Animal/in vitro studies show MgT may help protect neurons from oxidative damage, support brain‑cell resilience and may be beneficial in contexts of cognitive decline.

• Nerve & muscle support (general magnesium role): While specific to MgT, magnesium in general supports muscle/nerve function, energy metabolism and physiological relaxation (though other forms may handle these roles).

• Support for bone & connective tissue health: Though less specific in the research for MgT, magnesium overall plays a role in bone mineralisation and connective tissue health; combined formulas (like this product) may help in that area.

⚠️ Important Things to Know:

• The amount of elemental magnesium in many MgT formulations is relatively modest compared with some other magnesium salts — the special benefit is brain uptake, not simply high dose.

• Most of the strongest evidence for MgT is in small/early stage studies; while promising, effect sizes and long‑term data are limited.

• Because this product also includes additional nutrients (e.g., Vitamin K2, phosphatidylserine, selenium) ➝ benefits may come from the combination rather than MgT alone.

• If you are taking medications (especially for blood‑clotting, kidney issues, or neurological medications) or have health conditions, you should consult your healthcare provider before use — especially since brain‑active nutrients may interact.

• Supplements are not a substitute for healthy lifestyle (sleep hygiene, nutrition, exercise), especially when aiming for cognitive or sleep improvements.
