Magnesium 5-Complex with Vitamin B6
The Magnesium 5-Complex by Golden Elements combines bisglycinate, gluconate, malate, citrate and taurate with vitamin B6. Two capsules make one daily dose. They provide 250 mg of elemental magnesium and 1.4 mg of vitamin B6. The bottle contains 120 vegan capsules, providing 60 daily doses.
When choosing a magnesium complex with B6, you will find both the compounds used and the actual amount of magnesium contained here. The term 5-Complex refers to five compounds. It is not equivalent to five additional magnesium doses or an automatically higher dose.
Magnesium and B6 for normal body functions
Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function and normal nervous system function. Magnesium and vitamin B6 contribute to normal energy metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. The body functions are attributed to the respective nutrient contained.
Other approved claims include normal psychological function, electrolyte balance through magnesium and normal protein and glycogen metabolism through B6. The complete overview presents the functions separately. The additional number of magnesium compounds is not a body function in itself.
Elemental magnesium versus compound mass
The 250 mg refers to the magnesium content of the full dose from two capsules. The weight of the compounds including their respective components is to be distinguished from this. For product comparison, the amount expressly declared as magnesium is therefore decisive.
250 mg of magnesium corresponds to around 66.7 percent of the statutory nutrient reference value for adults. 1.4 mg of vitamin B6 corresponds to 100 percent. The percentage values refer to different nutrients and are not added together. They serve for comparison and do not determine personal requirements.
5-Complex capsules or 4-Complex tablets?
The separate Magnesium 4-Complex contains bisglycinate, citrate, malate and taurate. Its daily dose of two tablets provides 400 mg of magnesium. The 5-Complex capsules described here contain 250 mg of magnesium plus vitamin B6 per two capsules. More forms therefore do not automatically mean more magnesium.
The package yield also differs: 120 capsules provide 60 daily doses here; 60 tablets provide 30 with the 4-Complex product. For a conscious selection, you can consider the dosage form, composition and the respective amount together.
Vegan capsules and other magnesium products
The vegan capsule formulation is an independent selection criterion. If you prefer a chewable form, the magnesium gummies contain their own combination with zinc and B6. Their quantities are not taken from the capsule dose.
The use of this product remains two capsules daily with 250 ml of water. Compare other magnesium and vitamin B6 products using their tables if you already use several dietary supplements. The EFSA assessment on magnesium and the EU register provide professional background information on the mentioned nutrient functions.
