Jamieson Magnesium Extra Strength 100mg 100 tablets

Active Ingredient:

• Magnesium Oxide: 100mg per tablet

Claimed Benefits:

• Supports proper muscle function (including the heart muscle)
• Helps in the development and maintenance of bones and teeth
• Helps in tissue formation and nutrient metabolism

Considerations:

• Dosage:

  • 100mg is a moderate dose of magnesium for adults. The recommended daily intake varies depending on age, sex, and health status, but generally falls between 300-400mg for adults.
  • This formula provides enough magnesium to meet or exceed daily needs for many adults in one tablet.

• Absorption:

  • The type of magnesium can affect absorption. Magnesium bisglycinate generally has better absorption than some other forms (e.g., magnesium oxide). Jamieson doesn't specify the magnesium source in this product, so absorption efficiency might be lower.

Recommendations:

• Generally Safe for Most Adults: This dosage is likely safe for most healthy adults when taken within the recommended daily intake (1 tablet).
• Consult Your Doctor Before Use: This is especially important if you have any underlying health conditions (kidney disease, diabetes) or take medications that can interact with magnesium.
• Consider Individual Needs: Your doctor can help assess your magnesium needs based on factors like your diet and health status.
• Dietary Sources: Include magnesium-rich foods like leafy green vegetables, nuts, seeds, and whole grains in your diet.
• Follow Dosage Instructions: Don't exceed the recommended daily intake (1 tablet) without consulting your doctor.
