Q. What makes magnesium malate different from other forms of magnesium?
A. Magnesium malate is a chelated form where magnesium is bonded to malic acid, creating a highly bioavailable compound that the body can absorb efficiently. Unlike inorganic forms such as magnesium oxide, the chelated structure protects the mineral during digestion, allowing better absorption in the small intestine. Our pure magnesium malate contains no fillers or additives, providing 500mg of elemental magnesium from 2,500mg of magnesium malate per serving.
Q. How much magnesium malate powder should I take daily?
A. The recommended serving for adults (19 years and older) is one rounded half-teaspoon once per day. This provides 500mg of elemental magnesium from 2,500mg of pure magnesium malate. Each 300g container contains 120 servings, representing approximately a 4-month supply when taken as directed. Mix the powder into water, juice, or your preferred beverage.
Q. Does this powder contain any fillers, binders, or additional ingredients?
A. No. Our Magnesium Malate Powder contains 100% pure magnesium malate with absolutely no non-medicinal ingredients. Unlike many magnesium capsules that include fillers like magnesium stearate, flow agents, or other additives, our powder is completely pure. We don't use magnesium oxide, binders, or any other compounds—just authentic magnesium malate.
Q. Is this product suitable for vegans and those with dietary restrictions?
A. Yes. Our Magnesium Malate Powder is vegan, non-GMO, and gluten-free, making it suitable for various dietary preferences and restrictions. The powder format contains no capsule shells (gelatin or vegetable cellulose), no animal-derived ingredients, and no common allergens. We manufacture the product in Canada following strict quality standards and conduct third-party testing to verify purity.
Q. What is the NPN number and why does it matter?
A. Our product carries Natural Product Number (NPN) 80143435 from Health Canada. This designation means Health Canada has reviewed our product formulation, manufacturing processes, and health claims, confirming they meet federal safety, efficacy, and quality standards. The NPN provides assurance that our supplement complies with Canadian regulatory requirements.
Q. How should I store the magnesium malate powder?
A. Store the powder in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the container tightly sealed between uses to maintain freshness and prevent clumping. Proper storage helps preserve the powder's quality throughout its shelf life. The product should be kept out of reach of children.
Q. Why choose powder format instead of capsules?
A. Powder format offers several advantages: it contains no capsule shells or encapsulating materials, allows flexible dosing, and provides more elemental magnesium per serving compared to capsules. Our powder delivers 500mg of elemental magnesium in a single serving, whereas magnesium capsules typically provide only 100-200mg and require multiple capsules. The unflavoured powder mixes easily into beverages for convenient daily use.
Q. How long does one container last?
A. Each 300g container provides 120 servings. When taken at the recommended serving size of one rounded half-teaspoon daily, one container represents approximately a 4-month supply. This generous quantity offers excellent value and reduces the need for frequent reordering.
Q. What quality testing does this product undergo?
A. Every batch is manufactured in Canada in a facility following cGMP (current Good Manufacturing Practices) standards. We conduct comprehensive third-party laboratory testing for purity, potency, and safety. Testing includes analysis for heavy metals and microbial contaminations, ensuring each batch meets our strict quality standards before reaching consumers.
Q. Can I adjust the serving size of the powder?
A. The recommended serving is one rounded half-teaspoon (2,500mg of magnesium malate providing 500mg of elemental magnesium) once daily for adults 19 years and older. The powder format does allow measurement flexibility, but we recommend following the suggested serving size unless advised otherwise by a healthcare professional. Always consult with qualified healthcare providers before adjusting supplement doses.
