Muscle & Recovery

208 products covering magnesium, protein, electrolytes, vitamin D and topical products, in capsules, tablets, powders, liquids, sprays, gels and bath soaks. Brands include BetterYou, Viridian, Mag365, New Leaf, Soakin, Biocare and Solgar.

Which nutrients contribute to normal muscle function?

Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function, to normal protein synthesis and to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Calcium and potassium also contribute to normal muscle function. Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function. Protein contributes to a growth in and the maintenance of muscle mass.

Why so much magnesium in this collection?

Because it is what people come in asking for. Magnesium is available here as capsules, powders, liquids, sprays and bath flakes - the topical and bathing formats are applied to the skin rather than swallowed, and are popular after exercise. Mag365 and BetterYou are the two brands most of our customers return for.

Electrolytes and hydration

Carbohydrate-electrolyte solutions contribute to the maintenance of endurance performance during prolonged endurance exercise, and enhance the absorption of water during physical exercise. Sodium, potassium and magnesium are the minerals usually involved. These are formulated for sustained exercise rather than everyday use.

BetterYou built their business on transdermal magnesium - sprays, flakes and bath soaks - and they are the name most people mean when they ask for magnesium spray. Mag365 work with a powdered form that dissolves into a drink.

On the capsule side Viridian is the clearest example of how we buy: no fillers, no binders, no artificial additives. Biocare formulate in the UK with practitioners, and Solgar have been going since 1947.

This is where the money goes. Bisglycinate and citrate are absorbed more readily than the cheap oxide in supermarket own-brands and sit better with digestion - oxide is the one most likely to send you to the loo rather than to your muscles.

Malate and taurate turn up in formulas aimed at daytime use. If you are buying on price alone you will almost certainly end up with oxide, which is why a Viridian or Biocare capsule costs what it does.

Sprays go straight onto the skin over the area you want, and some people find them easier than swallowing another capsule. A tingle on first use is common and usually settles with repeated use.

Flakes go in the bath or a foot soak - a decent handful, twenty minutes. It is the pleasanter way to take it and popular with anyone who is on their feet all day.

FAQ

Which magnesium is best absorbed?

Bisglycinate and citrate, comfortably ahead of oxide. The form is on the pack, and it is worth checking before comparing prices - two products can look identical and behave quite differently.

Why does magnesium spray tingle?

It is a common reaction to the concentration on the skin, particularly the first few times. It usually settles as you keep using it. Applying to damp skin or after a shower reduces it.

When should I take it?

Whenever you will remember. Some people prefer the evening, and taking it with food suits most. Consistency matters more than timing.

Can I take too much magnesium?

Very high oral doses have a laxative effect, which is your signal to cut back. Stick to the pack, and count what is already in a multivitamin.
