Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Magnesium chelate Evalar is a relatively new modern remedy in the premium ANTI-AGE line from Evalar.
Magnesium is a vital macronutrient, which is why it is often called the "main metal of life." It is part of more than 300 enzymes, is involved in metabolism, is necessary for the formation of fatty acids and proteins. Even with a slight deficiency of this mineral, the body cannot function properly. Magnesium deficiency is manifested by many symptoms, including chronic fatigue, irritability, nervousness, insomnia, indigestion, involuntary muscle contractions, cramps, and various cardiovascular diseases.
Magnesium chelate is an amino acid chelate complex, a compound of magnesium and amino acids, which outwardly resembles a crab claw (Latin "chele" - claw), therefore it is called "chelate". This form (surrounded by amino acids) ensures the maximum assimilation of the mineral, since this process takes place in the small intestine, and it is able to assimilate individual mineral ions only if they are combined with amino acids. In the chelated form, magnesium ions are already in the shell of the amino acid, therefore, they do not require additional transformations, i.e. they are ready for absorption by the cells of the small intestine. Today, the chelated form is considered the most assimilable - by 90–98%. In addition, it does not affect the level of gastric acidity, does not disrupt digestion processes, does not cause bloating,and is also able to penetrate the placental barrier and nourish the developing fetus.

- supports the nervous system and heart;
- normalizes sleep;
- relieves muscle spasms and cramps;
- increases the body's resistance to stress.
The recommended daily intake of magnesium is at least 400 mg. Taking two tablets of the supplement per day provides this rate by 100%.
