Involved in hundreds of biological reactions in the body, magnesium is considered an indispensable nutrient and a great support in all situations that put the nervous system under severe strain.
Undoubtedly each of us needs an infinite number of nutrients, all indispensable for keeping us healthy, but magnesium is without doubt the catalytic and structural element of greatest significance in the physiology of the human body. It is fundamental in the regulation mechanisms of other extremely important minerals such as potassium, calcium and sodium, as well as being an essential element for the correct functioning of every single cell.
One of the main causes of magnesium deficiency is stress: mental and physical fatigue, in fact, rapidly depletes our magnesium reserves, exhausting them.
Long regarded as the anti-stress mineral par excellence, magnesium has never been more useful in everyday life than it is today, which is increasingly hectic and fraying to the nerves.
Our era, which drives individuals towards competitiveness and the myth of personal success, forces people into virtuous personal juggling acts that put the nervous system under severe strain. Daily rushing, tension, disappointments and uncertainty about the future can, at a certain point, spill over into manifestations of anxiety and irritability or, worse, into depression. How can we protect ourselves to prevent these states of mind, or how can we best address them in order to return to a proper psychophysical balance? Magnesium can be a valuable aid.
In many cases, stress leads to insomnia or at least to sleep difficulties, leaving sleep more restless and less restorative. A good magnesium supplement can help promote psychophysical relaxation and guide us towards restful and satisfying sleep. When we rest properly, we are then able to face the challenges of each day with more energy, mental clarity and less fatigue.

Magnesium has for years been considered a fundamental element for the proper functioning of the central nervous system, and so a deficiency of this important mineral can prevent us from managing as well as we might the stress situations we are constantly subjected to. We will therefore feel more acutely a general irritability with frequent mood swings, general intolerance and tension. Magnesium has a positive effect on the correct functioning of muscle contraction, both at the physical and intestinal level. Indeed, our intestine requires an optimal neuronal and muscular mechanism to carry out its functions. Magnesium deficiency, in addition to affecting the psychological aspect and the balance of the nervous system, acts on normal muscle function, including that of the intestine.
Recommended for all women in the premenstrual phase, in many cases of cycle-related problems characterised by irritability and mood swings or abdominal tension and cramps. Magnesium becomes essential for its ability to act positively on the smooth muscle of the uterus. In the presence of a magnesium deficiency, one may feel a sense of fatigue and muscle stiffness, linked to an electrolytic imbalance. Magnesium is indeed a key element in the balance of other minerals such as calcium, potassium and sodium. By supplying the necessary amount of magnesium, muscles will function better and relax more easily. With a magnesium deficiency, bone structure may also suffer, given that 60 per cent of the magnesium within the body is deposited in bone tissue and, together with calcium, determines its density. In addition to being involved in the regulation mechanisms of calcium, magnesium is implicated in the activation process of vitamin D.
It goes without saying that a hectic lifestyle can negatively affect the way we eat, leading to the consumption of quick and poorly balanced meals, excessive intake of tea and coffee throughout the day, and a consequent high intake of sugars — all substances that significantly reduce magnesium levels in the body.
It is precisely in moments of stress, then, that it is even more important to reflect on what is best to put on the table. Recommended is the consumption of pumpkin seeds, cashews and cocoa, which are very rich in magnesium, as are dates and all wholegrains, excellent sources of this precious element.
Natural Point has been producing and marketing Magnesio supremo® for over twenty-five years, the result of professionalism and experience and a guarantee of proper supplementation. Magnesio supremo® is a balanced combination of citric acid and magnesium carbonate which, when mixed with water, transforms into magnesium citrate. During this process, carbon dioxide is released, producing the characteristic effervescence, a sign of the product's greater efficacy. The clarity of the water will signal that the transformation is complete and that it is the ideal moment to drink the beverage.
The raw materials of Magnesio supremo® are of high quality and of natural origin. The citric acid is obtained by fermentation from non-GMO maize and the magnesium carbonate is of marine origin. In addition to having a high elemental magnesium content, magnesium citrate is an organic salt that optimises absorption of the mineral. Magnesio supremo® contains no additives, sugars or allergens, and its exclusive formula makes it a unique product and a leader in the sector. Natural Point works in close contact with raw material suppliers so as to guarantee the reliability of every batch of product marketed.
In all pharmacies, parapharmacies, herbalist shops and organic food stores in 150 g or 300 g packs and in convenient single-dose sachets, ideal for carrying in a bag or when travelling. There is also the 150 g jar formula flavoured with lemon, for those seeking extra freshness, or with cherry, designed for younger children, to make the product even more enjoyable.
Dissolve one or two teaspoons of Magnesio supremo® in slightly warm or room-temperature water. In the first case, the effervescent effect will be greater and clarity will be reached in less time. It is preferable to take Magnesio supremo® between meals. Even from the first doses, a positive sense of wellbeing can be noticed. The speed of absorption and the high magnesium content may be reflected in a relaxation of the intestinal muscles, confirming the strength of this formulation. It is therefore possible that taking magnesium produces a slightly laxative effect. In this case, it is advisable to reduce the amount taken, gradually increasing it until reaching the recommended daily dose or the personalised dose that suits us best. In cases of gastric sensitivity, it is advisable to take magnesium on a full stomach. Taking Magnesio supremo® does not replace a healthy, varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
