INCREDIBLE LIVING MAGNESIUM & GUT COMPLEX is a highly bioavailable magnesium using magnesium glycinate as a highly absorbable form and magnesium citrate as a form of magnesium that is beneficial for gut health. Incredible Living Magnesium & Gut Complex contains Orafti® inulin which is a prebiotic fibre found in chicory root.

Our functional fibres Orafti® inulin improve a balanced intestinal flora by stimulating growth of beneficial bifidobacterial – an important element of good digestive health.

They have been proven to support weight management and help the body absorb more calcium, which is good for stronger bones. In addition, Orafti® functional fibres also support a low-glyaecemic diet

Lastly, we have included phosphatidylserine, which improves absorption, increases levels of brain chemicals involved with memory and improves brain cell communication.

Magnesium

Magnesium is a mineral found in human tissue and is one of the most important minerals in your body. It is involved in almost every major metabolic process and plays a crucial role in more than 600 enzymatic reactions. It operates 24 hours a day throughout the entire body.   

Magnesium is an important mineral for physical and cognitive health. It helps convert energy from food into ATP, which is your cells' main fuel source. Magnesium is also needed for the synthesis of RNA and DNA. In your brain, magnesium helps regulate the activity of neurotransmitters, which are like tiny electrical switches that control the flow of information between neurons. Magnesium also regulates brain synaptic plasticity, which is the ability of your brain to change and adapt in response to new information or experiences.

Magnesium deficiency is one of the leading nutrient deficiencies in adults, with an estimated 80 percent being deficient in this vital mineral. It’s a good idea to consider taking magnesium supplements regularly and eating magnesium-rich foods.

Orafti ® FOS (Inulin)

Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) is a prebiotic which promotes a healthy digestive system by reinforcing the growth of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract. Healthy gut flora supports the solidarity of gut tissue, nutrient absorption, good digestion and a healthy immune system.

The fibre in inulin is soluble, which means it dissolves in water. It dissolves in the stomach and then forms a gelatinous substance that slows digestion, increases fullness and reduces cholesterol absorption as it passes through the digestive tract. Inulin aids digestion by increasing the number of good bacteria in the gut, particularly bifidobacteria and lactobacilli.

These bacteria help to digest food, fend off unwanted pathogens (bad bacteria), prevent infection and stimulate your immune system.

Research has shown that consuming adequate amounts of dietary fibre and prebiotics can significantly enhance weight loss. In fact, several large clinical studies demonstrate that prebiotic consumption can reduce the risk of gaining weight or developing obesity by up to 30%.

Phosphatidylserine

Phosphatidylserine is a naturally occurring phospholipid and one of the building blocks of cell membranes. It is essential for the formation and sending of neural signals within neurons and across synaptic junctions that link one neuron with another.

This cellular communication plays an integral role in how we form memories.

Phosphatidylserine also helps with nerve growth factor that ensures healthy neurogenesis and even assists in building mitochondria, which are the energy source in every one of your brain cells.
