Question 1

What's your capsule source? It is not mentioned that vegan capsule?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your question. The capsule is hydroxypropyl methylcellulose - cellulose derived from mixed wood pulp which provides an indigestible fibre that simply passes through the body.

Question 2

Does this contain taurine? Not sure what "fully reacted" means.

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your question.  All magnesium supplements combine magnesium with another substance such as a salt, an acid, or an amino acid providing different amounts of elemental magnesium.  We use citrate and two forms of amino acids, taurine, and glycine, as our carriers, so yes, there is a small amount of taurine in the product, and its role is to aid in the uptake of magnesium.  The process for manufacturing fully reacted magnesium products involves the reaction of magnesium with its 'carrier' rather than just mixing the two (known as buffering or blending).  Fully reacted magnesium products have significant advantages over buffered or blended magnesium products.  Firstly, fully reacted magnesium products  DO NOT contain poorly absorbed magnesium oxide (which is often used in buffered and blended products to boost the magnesium label claim but not declared in the nutritional information). Secondly, and most importantly, the bioavailability of fully reacted magnesium is significantly superior to non-reacted magnesium.  This means that higher blood levels of magnesium are achieved when supplementing with fully reacted magnesium.

Question 4

tree nut free facility?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your question. I can confirm that Triple Magnesium Complex is not manufactured in a tree nut-free facility. However, our Quality Management System includes specific procedures to prevent the cross-contamination of products from allergens. All allergenic raw materials and products are subject to an allergens risk assessment. High-risk allergenic materials are clearly identified as allergens on all work in progress labels and the batch manufacturing record and a full clean down is carried out after any processing involving these materials. Clean down procedures are regularly verified using ATP swabs.
