Magnesium 7

Yes, Magnesium 7 contains no animal products and is considered vegetarian and vegan. The capsules themselves are also made from plant cellulose, not gelatin.

At Vodrax we strive to source the highest-quality ingredients available, including USDA certified organic whenever possible. For all of our products, each of the individual ingredients that are certified organic are specified on the label.

Because magnesium is a mined mineral and not an agricultural product, it falls outside the USDA organic certification program and therefore cannot be certified organic.

Even though Magnesium 7 is not USDA certified organic, you can rest assured that the ingredients in this premium magnesium complex were selected for their efficacy and quality. It contains none of the cheap forms of magnesium used in most magnesium products. It is also non-GMO and contains NO stearates, fillers, additives, artificial flavors, preservatives, colors, yeast, soy, sodium, or starch.

Magnesium 7 is a broad-spectrum magnesium supplement meant for ongoing, daily use. It can be taken for as long as a magnesium inadequacy/deficiency exists and as recommended by your healthcare provider.

For common magnesium inadequacy, our recommended dosage is 2 capsules of Magnesium 7 daily with 8 oz of water or juice. If desired, capsules can be opened and powder added to any food or beverage.

Overall, magnesium is considered safe to take, but large amounts can cause GI upset and diarrhea in some people. Go with your healthcare provider's recommendation and listen to your body. Some people find it beneficial to start with one capsule (250 mg) and work up to 2 capsules (500 mg). If you are severely magnesium deficient or have other health considerations, your healthcare practitioner may recommend an even higher dose than the 2 capsules. Please work with your doctor to determine the optimal dose for you.

Certain medications can interact with magnesium and become more or less effective. There are also a number of medications that should not be taken within two hours of taking magnesium – including certain antibiotics, statin drugs, antacids, and more. If you are taking any medication or have pre-existing health conditions, it is important to consult with your doctor before taking magnesium supplements.

There is no one best time to take magnesium. The real benefits from magnesium supplementation come from correcting an inadequacy/deficiency and this is not time dependent. That being said, many people find it beneficial to space out their magnesium dosage by taking one capsule in the morning to support energy levels and another before bed to capitalize on magnesium's ability to boost GABA levels for improved sleep and muscle relaxation. However, if you find it more beneficial to take both capsules in the morning, afternoon, or evening, that is a personal preference. If you are taking any medication or have pre-existing health conditions, consult with your doctor before taking Magnesium 7.

The recommended daily allowance (RDA) of magnesium for children ages 9 and up is 240 mg. One capsule of Magnesium 7 contains 250 mg. However, only give your child Magnesium 7 if recommended by a qualified healthcare practitioner and keep product out of reach of children.

The recommended daily allowance (RDA) of magnesium for pregnant and lactating women varies by age. Please consult with your trusted healthcare professional about taking Magnesium 7 while pregnant or nursing.
