Osavi Magnesium Balance & Relax - 90 vegan caps

Food supplement in the form of a hard capsule containing magnesium, zinc, L-aspartic acid and vitamin B6. Created to relieve stress and improve relaxation.

Do you want to improve the functioning of your nervous system and better withstand stressful situations? Or would you like to improve the quality of your sleep? Then take Magnesium Balance & Relaxation, a supplement which combines three substances essential to the proper functioning of the organism: magnesium, vitamin B6 and zinc, and see how it can improve your condition.

Magnesium - known as the element of life - is found in every tissue of our body and is responsible for a number of processes within it. It is most noted for its properties that support the nervous system - among other things, it contributes to reducing feelings of fatigue and tiredness. It has been proven that taking magnesium with vitamin B6 enhances this effect - influencing greater stress reduction ^[1]. Magnesium also supports regeneration, which is crucial for restful sleep - it has been noted that any disruption of sleep caused by anxiety can negatively affect hormonal balance, among other things ^[2]. Magnesium is also credited with supporting proper muscle function and electrolyte balance, which can have a positive impact on the quality of post-workout recovery.

Vitamin B6, together with magnesium, is responsible for the optimal functioning of the nervous system; it also helps the immune system to function properly, supports the production of red blood cells and the optimal synthesis of cysteine. Interestingly, studies have shown that pyridoxine supplementation can cause realistic dreams ^[3]. 

Zinc is a mineral involved in life-sustaining biochemical processes - including cellular respiration and DNA reproduction ^[4]. It also supports brain and immune system function and helps protect cells from oxidative stress. 

Magnesium balance & relaxation has been enriched with L-aspartic acid, a glycogenic amino acid involved in protein biosynthesis and the nervous system's response to stress and serving as a neurotransmitter ^[5].

Magnesium deficiency affects disorders on the part of the nervous system, which can manifest as, among other things, lack of resistance to stress, numbness, tingling and cramps in the limbs, and general fatigue and weakness ^[6]. Magnesium intake has also been linked to the prevention of muscle damage and support of recovery after intense exercise ^[7]. An inadequate supply of pyridoxine is often associated with states of depressed mood, confusion and weakened immunity ^[8]. Zinc deficiency, on the other hand, can lead to latent fatigue with reduced endurance (especially in physically active individuals) and impaired cognitive and psychological functions (as noted especially in older people) ^[4].

Our Magnesium Balance & Relax food supplement contains a large portion of magnesium in the highly absorbable organic form of citrate, vitamin B6 (pyridoxine hydrochloride), L-aspartic acid and the patented, well-absorbed zinc in chelate form - OptiZinc®. This unique mineral chelate, which combines zinc with the amino acid L-methionine, has excellent absorption, retention, antioxidant and cell-protective properties, with which it has advantages over other forms [9]. The recommended daily serving (3 capsules) contains 400 mg magnesium (107% RWS), 15 mg zinc (150% RWS), 10.5 mg vitamin B6 (750% RWS) and 300 mg L-aspartic acid. We recommend taking the supplement one hour before bedtime.
