Science & Research
Verifiable Science
Many U.S. adults fall short of the recommended dietary allowance (RDA; 400-420 mg for men and 310-320 mg for women). Nearly half (48%) of Americans fail to meet the estimated average requirement (EAR) for magnesium (255-350 mg), an amount that is estimated to meet the needs of 50% of healthy individuals.1 Magnesium plays essential roles in neuronal communication (neurotransmission), supporting the function of GABA and other key neurotransmitters with calming and relaxing effects.2-5 Accordingly, higher dietary magnesium intakes are associated with healthy responses to stress, positive mood, and emotional well-being.6-10 Magnesium also plays an important role in muscle relaxation.11-13 Each gummy provides 150 mg of magnesium citrate, a highly bioavailable form better absorbed than magnesium oxide.‡
