Magnesium Built for Cognitive Performance
Not all magnesium forms behave the same. Magtein is a specific, clinically studied form, magnesium L-threonate, paired here with vitamins C and D3. Integrative Therapeutics describes it as "clinically studied Magtein magnesium L-threonate with vitamins C and D3 for cognitive support, including executive function and short-term memory."*
Who I Reach For This With
- Patients who want cognitive support, including focus and short-term memory
- Busy professionals and students working on mental performance
- Patients building a brain-focused protocol who want a distinctive form of magnesium
- Anyone whose practitioner wants vitamin D3 paired with magnesium
What Makes This Form Different
- 144 mg of magnesium from 2,000 mg Magtein magnesium L-threonate per 3-capsule serving
- Vitamins C (60 mg) and D3 (10 mcg) in the same serving; Integrative Therapeutics: "Vitamin D3 supports magnesium absorption"*
- Integrative Therapeutics calls Magtein "a bioavailable and distinctive form of magnesium that supports cognitive performance"*
What Integrative Therapeutics Says It Supports*
- Cognitive support, including executive function and short-term memory*
- Cognitive performance*
- Magnesium absorption, with vitamin D3*
How It Fits Into a Protocol
Magtein L-Threonate Plus is a brain-focused magnesium, not a replacement for a general magnesium. If your plan calls for a broad magnesium, Magnesium Glycinate is the one I use for that. For a brain-focused plan it can sit alongside Phosphatidylserine from the same maker, and Brain-E DHA or Ultra Omega-3 for the fat side of the equation.
