How Can I Pick the Right Form of Magnesium?

ReMag is 99.9% Elemental Magnesium.

Per FDA we cannot suggest other forms of magnesium but ours, ReMag. It is 100% magnesium in reverse osmosis water with no other added compounds. With respect to the form of magnesium, ReMag is 99.9% elemental magnesium extracted from Magnesium Chloride. 

What we mean when we say, “elemental” when we talk about a mineral is the amount of mineral that is pure and absorbable by the body. A pure mineral would be a type of mineral made up of elements in uncombined form but with a distinct mineral structure. In the case of ReMag, the magnesium chloride goes through an 18-step process where the magnesium from the original magnesium chloride is broken off, reduced in size, and stabilized. What's in the bottle right now is magnesium only, and is almost 100% absorbable. Since no digestive energy i used by your body when you take ReMag, it is immediately available to cells for absorption.

Purdue Study Demonstrates ReMag's Absorption

Here are the talking points from our Purdue Study:

Circulating Ionized Magnesium as a Measure of Supplement Bioavailability: Results from a Pilot Study for Randomized Clinical Trial

A placebo and cross-over blinded control study.

Talking points: 

  1. iMg (ionized magnesium testing) is the better marker for magnesium. Serum magnesium is bound up and not usable. Magnesium ions are available to use in the cells.
  2. Using a molecular size analyzer (Malvern Zetasizer Nano ZS, Malvern, UK), we confirmed that the majority of the particle size of ReMag® formulation is in the picometer range. The test was repeated three times.
  3. ReMag goes to the ionized magnesium status and is not bound up. Its small size allows it to be absorbed higher up in the GI tract and avoid the laxative effect.
  4. Mg Citrate and Mg Oxide will eventually be ionized somewhat, but they revert back to a compound state immediately and, therefore, don’t have as high an absorption efficiency.
  5. Elevated ionized magnesium was measurable in the blood within 2-4 hours. Our head of research, Dr. Taylor Wallace said that this fluctuation with one single dose is very important. He said he would not have anticipated mineral electrolytes changing with 1 single dose.
  6. Clinical investigations have demonstrated that ionized magnesium, but not serum magnesium, is depressed in a number of clinical conditions such as migraine, individuals with noninsulin-dependent diabetes, patients with asthma, and women with high-risk pregnancies.
  7. A subclinical magnesium deficiency can occur when serum magnesium levels are within the lower reference range. Therefore, serum total magnesium levels may not be sufficient for diagnosis of deficiency.
  8. Our findings of a more robust ionized response, when compared to serum magnesium, are similar to those reported by Altura et al.
