Magnesium Citrate Malate

What is Magnesium Citrate Malate? – Overview and Key Benefits

Magnesium Citrate Malate is a chelated magnesium complex formed from citric acid and malic acid, offering superior absorption and gastrointestinal tolerance compared to conventional magnesium salts. It is widely preferred in high-performance dietary supplements and therapeutic formulations.

The material appears as a white to off-white, free-flowing powder, freely soluble in water and stable across a broad pH range. With purity ≥98% and controlled moisture levels, it supports energy production, muscle function, nerve health, enzyme activation, and electrolyte balance.

Its mild taste and high stability make it ideal for effervescent products, hydration powders, functional foods, and pharmaceutical blends. When stored properly, Magnesium Citrate Malate offers a 24-month shelf life.
