Lipokon Magnesium Hydroxide (10%)
Magnesium is a vital mineral involved in over 300 biochemical reactions, supporting muscle function, nerve signaling, energy production, and cardiovascular health. Despite its importance, many individuals face magnesium deficiency due to poor dietary intake, stress, and low absorption rates in conventional supplements.
When formulated liposomally, magnesium hydroxide is encased in microscopic phospholipid vesicles (liposomes), which:
- Protect the magnesium from stomach acid
- Deliver it directly into cells via membrane fusion
- Dramatically improve absorption and reduce gastrointestinal side effects
Key Benefits
01.
Superior Absorption
- Liposomal encapsulation bypasses conventional gut absorption routes, boosting magnesium uptake substantially.
02.
Gentle on the Gut
- Far less likely to cause diarrhea, cramping, or bloating than plain magnesium hydroxide or other laxative forms.
03.
Sustained Release
- Provides a slow, steady release of magnesium, maintaining stable blood levels over time
04.
Supports Relaxation & Sleep
- Boosts brain magnesium, promoting GABA activity and supporting melatonin regulation—enhancing calmness and quality sleep.
05.
Muscle & Bone Support
- Crucial for muscle function, helps prevent cramps, and contributes to healthy bones and energy metabolism
06.
Heart & Blood Sugar Balance
- Helps regulate heart rhythm, maintain healthy blood pressure, and support insulin function and glucose metabolism.
07.
Enhanced Cellular & Membrane Health
- The phospholipids in liposomes also nourish cell membranes, aiding detoxification and nutrient transport
Form and Use
- Adults
- 100–300 mg elemental magnesium per day – lower doses than standard magnesium hydroxide due to better absorption through liposomal delivery.
- For constipation relief, 1–2 mL of liquid (providing 100–200 mg elemental Mg) at bedtime.
- Children (6–12 years)
- Dosing based on weight, ~2 mg/kg elemental Mg at bedtime (adjusted carefully)
Reduced Dosage
Liposomal products offer superior bioavailability compared to their standalone moieties due to their unique structure. Liposomes are microscopic vesicles composed of phospholipid bilayers that encapsulate active ingredients. This design protects the nutrient from degradation in the digestive tract and enhances its absorption in the gut. Liposomes fuse with cell membranes, allowing the active compound to be delivered directly into the bloodstream or target cells. As a result, a higher percentage of the nutrient reaches systemic circulation, offering faster onset of action and improved efficacy compared to conventional forms.
