Source Naturals Magnesium Malate is a compound of magnesium and malic acid. Malic acid is a natural fruit acid that is present in most cells in the body and is an important component of numerous enzymes key to ATP synthesis and energy production. Magnesium is an essential mineral in over 300 enzymatic reactions in metabolism. These reactions include those involved in the Krebs cycle (one of the body's energy production systems), energy storage, the breakdown of fatty acids, protein synthesis, DNA metabolism, neurotransmitter activity, and hormone regulation. KEY FEATURES -
For metabolic support in chronic fatigue syndrome. -
Intimate involvement in energy-producing mechanisms. -
Lessenes fatigue. -
Important factor in many biochemical processes. -
Malic acid is a mild chelator and an excellent mineral transporter of magnesium. Malic Acid and magnesium has become very popular for metabolic support in chronic fatigue syndrome. First apart from the matter of magnesium's intimate involvement in energy-producing mechanisms, there is clear evidence of magnesium insufficiency in CFS. Further, the use of magnesium salts to lessen fatigue has a rich clinical history. Second, malic acid is a key intermediate in the Krebs cycle- the biochemical mechanism which function results in the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the basic energy molecule in the body. One hypothesis holds that malic acid deficiency is the key molecular event resulting in fatigue. Large numbers of physicians utilize malic acid and magnesium as nutritional support for their fatigued patients.
Magnesium is an important factor in many biochemical processes within the body and many vital enzymes require magnesium for their optimal activity and formation.
Malic acid is an organic acid that occurs naturally in fruits and some vegetables. It is also present in most fruit juices and is responsible for the acidic nature of apple juice. Malic acid is a mild chelator and an excellent mineral transporter of magnesium Suggested Use: 1 to 3 tablets daily with meals, or as recommended by your health care professional. Supplement Facts
