Overview
Thorne Magnesium CitraMate combines magnesium citrate and magnesium malate in a single capsule, providing two highly bioavailable forms. Citrate supports bowel regularity while malate supports energy production via the Krebs cycle. The dual-form approach provides broader benefits than single-form magnesium. NSF Certified for Sport makes it one of the few magnesium supplements verified for competitive athletes.
