Ingredients explained
Magnesium
Magnesium serves as a cofactor in hundreds of enzymes, supporting ATP production and helping muscles contract and relax by balancing calcium signaling.
Caution: May cause loose stools in some people; take with food and split doses to improve tolerance.
Malic Acid
Malic acid participates in the Krebs cycle, where it helps the body generate cellular energy from carbohydrates and fats.
Caution: Acidic compounds may cause mild stomach discomfort in sensitive individuals; taking with meals can help.
How they work together
Magnesium supports muscle relaxation and enzymatic steps in energy metabolism, while malic acid feeds the Krebs cycle for cellular energy production. Together they address both cofactor needs and substrate flow in energy pathways and muscle function.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: If you are pregnant, may become pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult a healthcare professional before use.
Who should be cautious: People with kidney concerns, heart rhythm issues, or those prone to diarrhea may need caution with magnesium supplements. Separate magnesium from certain antibiotics and thyroid medications to avoid reduced absorption. Discuss with a healthcare provider if you have these conditions or take these medications.

Source Naturals Magnesium Malate is a compound of magnesium and malic acid. It supports proper muscle function, cardiovascular health, and energy production. Malic acid is a natural fruit acid that is present in most cells in the body and is an intermediate in the Krebs cycle, where energy is captured during the metabolism of carbs and fats. Magnesium is and essential cofactor for over 300 enzymatic reactions in metabolism, ATP synthesis and energy production. Magnesium plays important roles in muscle relaxation, because of its function as a cofactor for enzymes and because of its ability to counterbalance calcium in the cell.
