Description

Magnesium Dl-Aspartate is a stable, bioavailable chelate of magnesium with the amino acid aspartic acid. This compound is valued for its superior absorption profile compared to inorganic magnesium salts, making it an effective mineral supplement. It is primarily utilized in the formulation of high-quality nutraceuticals, dietary supplements, and functional foods targeting global health and wellness markets.

Application

• Dietary Supplements & Nutraceuticals: A key ingredient in magnesium capsules, tablets, and powders for supporting muscle function, nerve transmission, and bone health.
• Functional Food & Beverage Fortification: Used to enrich sports nutrition products, health drinks, and fortified foods due to its good solubility and bioavailability.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a source of bioavailable magnesium in the development of prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) mineral preparations.
• Animal Nutrition (Feed Additives): Incorporated into premixes to prevent magnesium deficiency and support metabolic processes in livestock and pets.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care: Used in topical formulations for its potential skin-soothing and anti-inflammatory properties.
• Research & Development: Employed in biochemical research and as a standard in analytical laboratories.
