UltraMag - Sucrosomial® matrix

UltraMag Magnesium utilizes an innovative microencapsulation technology to enhance the absorption of magnesium. This technology creates a phospholipid bilayer around the mineral that is similar to a liposome, increasing solubility in the gastrointestinal fluids and facilitating absorption across membranes. Stabilization is enhanced between the water (aqueous phase) and oil (fatty phase) with sucrose esters, which form a bilayer around the mineral core. Tricalcium phosphate helps maintain the molecular bonds in this structure. The bilayer has an outer membrane that is comparable in structure and properties to cell membranes, which allows for ease of transport into cellular membranes and improved absorption. By sequestering the minerals away from the mucous membranes, this form also prevents the minerals from premature degradation and supports tolerability and minimising gastrointestinal side effects.

In a comparative crossover study, magnesium in this special microencapsulated matrix was compared to other forms of magnesium in human subjects. Twenty-four-hour blood and urinary magnesium measurements indicated superior absorption of microencapsulated magnesium compared to magnesium citrate, glycinate, and oxide.
