Magnesium Citrate Powder from Webber Naturals provides magnesium citrate in a delicious and convenient powdered drink format. Magnesium is involved in more than 300 enzymatic reactions in the body, including those that support healthy bones, teeth, and muscle function, as well as the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins (1,2,3,4). Magnesium needs to be consumed regularly through diet and/or supplementation to prevent deficiency (4). The Recommended Dietary Allowances for magnesium are 320 mg daily for most adult women and 420 mg daily for men (5). Medications, stress, diet, and numerous other factors are all potential causes of declining magnesium levels, and around 40% of Canadians don’t get enough (6,7).
