What is Magnesium Gluconate? – Overview and Key Benefits
Magnesium Gluconate is a highly bioavailable magnesium salt of gluconic acid, widely used in nutraceutical, food, pharmaceutical, and wellness formulations. It appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder, freely soluble in water, and known for its superior absorption compared to other inorganic magnesium salts. With excellent stability, mild taste, and neutral pH profile, it is a preferred ingredient for tablets, capsules, beverages, dietary supplements, and mineral-fortified foods.
The product typically offers 98–101% purity, ensuring reliable performance in critical health applications. It helps support electrolyte balance, muscle function, heart health, and energy metabolism. Its shelf life ranges between 24–36 months when stored properly. Our Magnesium Gluconate complies with major global standards—FCC, USP, EP, IP, EFSA, and other international regulations—making it suitable for export-ready formulations.
