Potassium Magnesium Aspartate Source Naturals uses extremely high quality potassium and magnesium aspartate. Source Naturals K-Mag™ Aspartate is an excellent source of energizing nutrition for athletic activity or fast-paced daily living. Potassium is essential for nerve function, muscle strength, and glycogen formation, among other biochemical processes. Magnesium plays a key role in over 300 enzymatic reactions, including those involved in the Krebs cycle (the body's main energy production process), the relaxation of muscle tissue, neurotransmitter activity, and hormone regulation. L-Aspartic acid also plays a vital role in energy production and is a major excitatory neurotransmitter. KEY FEATURES -
Excellent source of energizing nutrition. -
Potassium is essential for nerve function in the body, muscle strength, glycogen formation, and the regulation of heart action and blood pressure. -
Magnesium is essential for energy production and storage, muscle relaxation, and the absorption of potassium within the body. -
Aspartic acid is needed for stamina, brain and neural health and assists the liver by removing excess ammonia and other toxins from the bloodstream. -
Plays a vital role in energy production.. -
Important in production of immunoglobulin and antibody synthesis. Magnesium helps with formation of bone and teeth and assists the absorption of calcium and potassium. Where calcium stimulates the muscles, magnesium is used to relax the muscles. It is further needed for cellular metabolism and the production of energy through its help with enzyme activity It is used for muscle tone of the heart and assists in controlling blood pressure. Together with vitamin B 12, it may prevent calcium oxalate kidney stones. It helps prevent depression, dizziness, muscle twitching, and pre-menstrual syndrome. It can help prevent the calcification of soft tissue and may help prevent cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and certain forms of cancer, and it may reduce cholesterol levels. Magnesium assists the parathyroid gland to process vitamin D, and a shortage here can cause absorption problems with calcium. Potassium is needed for growth, building muscles, transmission of nerve impulses, heart activity etc. Potassium, together with sodium - potassium inside the cell and sodium in the fluid surrounding the cell, work together for the nervous system to transmit messages as well as regulating the contraction of muscles. A deficiency of potassium may result in fatigue, cramping legs, muscle weakness, slow reflexes, acne, dry skin, mood changes, irregular heartbeat. If you are into bodybuilding, it is also a good idea to increase your potassium intake, since potassium is needed to maintain your muscles in good form, controlling your muscle actions, and since potassium is lost in excessive sweating and urine. A great way to include this in your diet is to have a banana, citrus fruit or even a dash of apple cider vinegar. Aspartic acid is a non-essential amino acid and is found in abundance in plant proteins, especially in sprouting seeds but can be manufactured in the body from oxaloacetic acid and was first isolated in 1868 from legumin in plant seed. Aspartic acid, as well as glutamic acid, is the only amino acid that has a negatively charged carboxylate group on the side chain. It is of paramount importance in the metabolism during construction of other amino acids and biochemicals in the citric acid cycle. Among the biochemicals that are synthesized from aspartic acid are asparagine, arginine, lysine, methionine, threonine, isoleucine, and several nucleotides. It is needed for stamina, brain and neural health and assists the liver by removing excess ammonia and other toxins from the bloodstream. It is also very important in the functioning of RNA, DNA, as well as the production of immunoglobulin and antibody synthesis.
