Magnesium citrate
Magnesium from an organic citrate compound
Magnesium – co-factor of more than 300 enzymes
Magnesium is involved in almost all processes in the cell. This mineral is particularly important for muscle function, the nerves and the nervous system, the maintenance of normal teeth and bones as well as for the electrolyte balance within the body. In the case of an increased requirement, due to stress or sports for example, a magnesium preparation can support the intake of magnesium in a targeted manner. Attention should be paid to magnesium with the regular intake of drugs (e.g. protection for the stomach (proton pump inhibitors)).

FAQ
At Biogena, “pure substance principle” means that we do not use technological additives which are used for the fully automated manufacturing of tablets, capsules and pills (e.g. anticaking or release agents and so forth) or additives that are used for optical reasons or for enhancing the taste of the products (artificial aroma, colouring agents, coatings etc.). Due to a semi-automatic manufacturing process, we can avoid these substances that often have a higher proportion in customary products than the actual active ingredients. In the case of nutritional supplements, additives have to be indicated in the list of ingredients. Here, the patient or customer can get useful information. Concerning the single ingredients, we also care for our raw materials to be free of carrier substances. In cases where this is not possible, we use natural food components such as maltodextrin, cellulose powder or calcium carbonate. The majority of our ingredients is produced exclusively for us – free of carrier substances (e.g. our enzymes our probiotics: other manufacturers often use lactose as a carrier – the product batches produced for us are explicitly without carriers).
BIOGENA preparations are carefully manufactured in our own production facility, BIOGENA Good Health World (Salzburg, Austria), to a unique manufacturing standard. We are certified according to ISO 22,000:2018 and GMP - Good Manufacturing Practice and have organic, halal and kosher certification.
