The Viogenesis Magtein Magnesium L-Threonate is a dietary supplement in 60 capsules with L-threonate magnesium, the patented form Magtein. The daily dose of 3 capsules provides 2010mg of L-threonate magnesium, which delivers 144.6mg of elemental magnesium, i.e. 38.55% of the Daily Value.
It is aimed at those interested in their cognitive function and sleep quality, people with mentally demanding work, as well as those who have tried other forms of magnesium and want something with a different profile of distribution in the body.
All forms of magnesium provide the same metal. The difference is in the carrier molecule, which determines how much is absorbed and, critically here, where it ends up in the body.
L-threonate magnesium binds magnesium with threonic acid, a metabolite of vitamin C. This specific form was developed to cross the blood-brain barrier, the selective membrane that controls what substances reach the brain. Data shows that L-threonate magnesium crosses the barrier more effectively than classic forms, increasing magnesium levels especially in brain tissue.
Practically, this means you don't choose Magtein for cramps, where a citric or diglycinate magnesium does the job cheaper. You choose it when your goal is the nervous system.

Since this form targets the nervous system, many prefer taking it in the afternoon or evening. You can also split the three capsules throughout the day.
Citric and diglycinate are excellent choices for muscle function, cramps, and general coverage at a much lower cost. L-threonate is specifically chosen for targeting brain tissue. It is not better in all aspects, it is different in purpose.
Yes. Vegetable capsule shell, no ingredients of animal origin, no gluten and GMO.
Check the total daily magnesium intake, as this product alone already covers over one third of the DV. If you are taking tetracycline or quinolone antibiotics, leave a two-hour gap.
