Magnesium is one of the most abundant minerals found in the human body. It is essential to so many systems and metabolic functions in the body that supplementation is widely recommended. Chelated forms of a mineral mean that an amino acid has been attached to them making them more bio-available and less likely to cause gastrointestinal discomfort as a side effect. We have added Slippery Elm bark to our Magnesium 250 as an added gastrointestinal support.
