magnesium

Magnesium is an essential mineral involved in over 300 processes in your body. It plays a vital role in:

• Protein creation
• Muscle and nerve health
• Blood sugar control and blood pressure regulation
• Bone strength and DNA production
• Supporting mood, digestion, and hormone balance

Magnesium even helps your body detoxify chemicals and influences metabolism and weight management.

If you're considering magnesium supplements, the options can feel overwhelming. At Deerwood Family Practice, we offer personalized magnesium blends and blood testing to ensure the right balance—neither too much nor too little.

Here are a few options:
1.      OptiMag® 125: A blend of magnesium lysinate glycinate and dimagnesium malate, designed to support energy, clear lactic acid, and boost antioxidants like glutathione.
2.      OptiMag® Neuro: Perfect for those dealing with anxiety, depression, or trouble sleeping. It contains magnesium L-threonate (the only magnesium type that crosses the blood-brain barrier), dimagnesium malate, and magnesium lysinate glycinate chelate—ideal for brain and nervous system health.
3.      Reactive magnesium: provides a highly absorbable blend of di-magnesium malate, magnesium citrate, and magnesium glycinate. This trio was blended to target cardiovascular support, maintain healthy blood pressure and sugars, and promote energy and muscle relaxation.
