Ingredients explained
Magnesium
Magnesium acts as a cofactor in hundreds of enzymes involved in ATP production and helps regulate muscle contraction by balancing calcium signaling in muscle cells.
Caution: May loosen stools or cause gastrointestinal discomfort, especially at higher intakes; take with food and split doses if sensitive.
Malic Acid
Malic acid is an intermediate in the Krebs cycle that participates in cellular energy metabolism and may help the body generate ATP from carbohydrates and fats.
Caution: Large amounts may cause stomach upset in some people; taking with meals can improve tolerance.
How they work together
Magnesium supplies a key mineral cofactor for enzymes that drive ATP production, while malic acid feeds into the Krebs cycle as a direct metabolic intermediate. Together, they provide mineral support and a substrate that align with cellular energy pathways and muscle function.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: If you are pregnant, may become pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult a health care professional before use.
Who should be cautious: People with kidney concerns or on medications that may be affected by magnesium should discuss use with a healthcare provider before starting.

- 3,750 mg Per Serving
- Suitable For Vegetarians
Source Naturals Magnesium Malate is a compound of magnesium and malic acid. It supports proper muscle function, cardiovascular health, and energy production. Malic acid is a natural fruit acid that is present in most cells in the body and is an intermediate in the Krebs cycle, where energy is captured during the metabolism of carbs and fats. Magnesium is an essential cofactor for over 300 enzymatic reactions in metabolism, ATP synthesis and energy production. Magnesium plays important roles in muscle relaxation, because of its functions as a cofactor for enzymes and because of its ability to counterbalance calcium in the cell.
