Magtein Magnesium L Threonate, developed by a team of MIT scientists, is a patented form of magnesium. When developing Magtein Magnesium L Threonate, the goal was to have a magnesium amino acid chelate that reached the brain efficiently. Developers decided that the amino acid L-Threonate, which is a metabolite of vitamin C, would be best for this function.
L-Threonate is a unique amino acid which appears to enhance mitochondrial function, synaptic density, and neuroplasticity on its own. It partially elevates neuronal intracellular magnesium levels which act as a second messenger. The chelation of Magtein Magnesium L Threonate allows L-Threonate to enhance neuronal intracellular magnesium levels, while the magnesium elevates its levels throughout the body and the brain.
Dosage
Studies suggest taking 4 capsules 1200mg per day for maximum benefit. We suggest taking 2 capsule in the morning and 2 capsules at night to assist with sleep.
For some people however, it may be too stimulating to the brain and cognition to be taken at night; in this case 4 capsules in the morning may be best.
Each capsule is 2000mg of Magnesium L-threonate equivalent to 144mg of Magnesium. There are 120 capsules per bottle.
When to take:
You can take magnesium L-Threonate whenever you like.
However we suggest taking 2 capsule in the morning and 2 capsules at night to assist with sleep.
