Magnesium malate is a combination of malic acid and magnesium. Malic acid is an organic compound mostly found in fruits. The salts of malic acid are known as malates. Malic acid is an intermediate compound that is necessary to generate cellular energy. Magnesium is the mineral responsible for more than 300 chemical reactions in the body. Half of the magnesium present in the body is in your bones. Magnesium malate is beneficial for a variety metabolic, muscular and physical conditions.

Magnesium malate helps loosen stools and is used as a laxative to treat constipation. It is also used as a cleansing agent before a colonoscopy or bowel surgery. Magnesium has a natural laxative effect and malic acid has a natural stood softening effect. The two ingredients combined enhance the effects.

A combination of magnesium and malic acid tops the list of recommendations for easing pain and fatigue, especially for those with fibromyalgia or ME/CFS.

Magnesium (Mg) is one of the most important nutrients required by our bodies. It is necessary for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body and is essential to human life. A few of magnesium's functions include:

• Maintaining normal muscle and nerve function
• Keeping heart rhythm steady
• Supporting a healthy immune system
• Keeping bones strong
• Regulating blood sugar levels
• Promoting normal blood pressure
• Supporting energy metabolism and protein synthesis

According to a 1985 USDA survey, 75% to 85% of American adults consume less than the recommended daily amount of magnesium. Since our bodies don't produce this essential nutrient, it is critical that we replenish our supply of magnesium daily through diet and/or supplementation.
