How is extended-release magnesium different from regular magnesium?
Standard forms of magnesium - citrate, bisglycinate, glycinate, magnesium B6 - are released once after ingestion. Extend-Release technology distributes the intake of magnesium evenly over 6 hours. Different forms of magnesium may differ in tolerability and absorption rate - this should be considered when choosing a supplement.
The XR format is often chosen by those who have already tried magnesium citrate or magnesium bisglycinate and want to compare the feeling of gradually receiving the mineral throughout the day.
Who is this format suitable for?
The vegetable capsules are convenient for vegetarians and those avoiding gelatin. The combination of potassium and magnesium in one capsule is suitable for those looking for a compact option for their daily diet without the need to take several separate supplements.
- Vegetarians and vegans - vegetable capsule shell
- Those who follow a gluten-free diet
- Those who want to get potassium and magnesium in one serving
- Those interested in sustained-release technology as an alternative to standard magnesium citrate or glycinate
How many capsules of Life Extension Potassium with Extended-Release Magnesium should I take per day?
The manufacturer recommends taking one capsule once or twice a day. Dosage may be adjusted as recommended by your doctor. A bottle of 60 capsules is enough for 30-60 days, depending on the chosen regimen.
It is recommended to consult a doctor before starting any potassium supplements - especially if there are chronic conditions or a person is taking other medications.
