Magnesium Mix
Why Magnesium?
Magnesium is one of the most abundant minerals, in both the earth and the human body. Magnesium is an essential mineral and electrolyte for many (800!) of the bodyβs functions. Magnesium regulates everything from metabolism to sleep to performance - and a whole host of other things.Β
Yesterday's Medicine
Our ancestors received adequate amounts of magnesium from their diets and from foods grown in magnesium rich soils. Today, however, our soils are devoid of many crucial minerals.
Although there are many food sources of magnesium, a drastic loss of magnesium from agricultural soil over the last century has led to a decrease in the magnesium content of plant foods.Β
Want to hear something wild? The magnesium content of vegetables has decreased by 80-90% over the last century. As a result, supplementation with magnesium may be necessary to avoid deficiency.
Today's Science
There is a long list of health problems and chronic diseases associated with magnesium deficiency, many of which can be helped by taking a magnesium supplement. Here are some evidence-based benefits for magnesium supplementation:Β
- Pain & Inflammation
- Heart HealthΒ
- Sleep Health
- Metabollic Health
- Joint and Muscle Health
- Brain health
- Bone Health
- Mental health
- Performance and recovery
As we dove deeper and deeper on our mission to bring you the best, cleanest, most transparent supplements on the market we repeatedly ran into one thing β supplements have a lot of useless (sometimes toxic) fillers.
Well, we took all of them out, leaving behind only what you truly need: a small scoop, full of big good.
What's in the tub?
Magnesium
Magnesium
The Fringe Essentials Magnesium Powder contains three forms of magnesium: orotate, malate, and glycinate. All three are organic forms of magnesium, which have been shown to be better absorbed into the body and easily digested. Each one has unique health benefits:
1. Magnesium GlycinateΒ
Magnesium glycinate is a standout in helping to reduce anxiety, promote relaxation, support deep sleep, reduce muscle tension, and balance mood.
2. Magnesium Orotate
Magnesium orotate is one of the best forms of magnesium to consume for heart health. Itβs been shown to help with hypertension and heart disease, and to reduce risks of heart attacks. It also supports gut and mental health, and helps with exercise recovery.
3. Magnesium MalateΒ
Magnesium malate is great for chronic pain, inflammation, energy production, and muscle tension and recovery.
