Ingredients explained
Magnesium (from magnesium bisglycinate chelate buffered and magnesium oxide)
Magnesium serves as a cofactor in hundreds of enzymes, supporting muscle contraction and relaxation, nerve signaling, and mineral balance.
Caution: May cause loose stools in some people, especially when taken on an empty stomach; take with food to improve tolerance.
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxal 5-phosphate)
Pyridoxal 5-phosphate is the active form of vitamin B6 that acts as a coenzyme in amino acid metabolism and neurotransmitter synthesis.
Caution: High intakes from multiple supplements may cause tingling or numbness; avoid combining with other high-dose B6 products without guidance.
Benfotiamine
Benfotiamine is a fat-soluble form of thiamin that supports carbohydrate metabolism and cellular energy production.
Caution: May interact with certain medications affecting glucose metabolism; monitor how you feel and take with meals.
How they work together
Magnesium provides mineral balance for muscles and nerves, while active B6 supports amino acid and neurotransmitter pathways that relate to relaxation and energy use. Benfotiamine complements by supporting carbohydrate metabolism and cellular energy, which aligns with magnesium’s role in enzyme function.
