Composition Ingredients: 100% powdered magnesium carbonate Properties A magnesium carbonate supplement has three main functions: to act as a gastric antacid, in sufficient quantities, to have an osmotic laxative effect without contraindications, and to provide magnesium naturally In the stomach, it acts as a local antacid, behaving like a base and thus neutralizing hydrochloric acid. Its effects are slow but prolonged, and precisely because it is not a very strong alkaloid, there is no risk of alkalosis, nor does it hinder proteolytic digestion. In the intestine, and in sufficient quantities, it acts as a mild laxative, as it is previously transformed in the stomach into magnesium chloride, a non-absorbable salt, which, by osmosis, improves intestinal transit. It usually takes effect 4-12 hours after ingestion, without causing colic or irritation. As a contribution of magnesium, magnesium ions are released in the intestine, which are absorbed by the intestinal wall and pass into the blood. Magnesium is a cation that acts mainly in bones. It is beneficial for bones since it is necessary for the absorption of calcium. In the skeletal and nervous systems, magnesium is part of the coenzymes necessary for the conversion of ATP into ADP, necessary for the proper functioning of muscles and nerves.
