Magnesium citrate（Cat No.:I044135）is a magnesium salt of citric acid commonly used as a dietary supplement and pharmaceutical agent. It serves as an effective osmotic laxative, promoting bowel movements by increasing water in the intestines, and is often used for bowel preparation before medical procedures. As a supplement, magnesium citrate supports muscle and nerve function, energy production, and bone health. It is more bioavailable than some other magnesium forms, enhancing absorption in the digestive tract. Magnesium citrate is also studied in contexts like cardiovascular health, migraine prevention, and metabolic support.
