NOW Foods Magnesium Malate 1000mg – 180 Vegetarian Tablets
NOW Foods Magnesium Malate 1000mg – 180 Vegetarian Tablets
NOW Foods Magnesium Malate delivers 113mg of elemental magnesium per tablet, bound to malic acid, in a pack of 180 vegetarian tablets.
Magnesium malate pairs elemental magnesium with malic acid, a compound involved in the Krebs cycle (the body's core energy-production pathway). The health claims on this page apply to the magnesium content only — malic acid itself holds no authorised EU health claim, so we don't make one. At the labelled dose of three tablets a day, this product provides 339mg of elemental magnesium, 90% of the EU Nutrient Reference Value.

What is NOW Foods Magnesium Malate?
It's a food supplement providing elemental magnesium bound to malic acid (magnesium malate), supplied as 180 vegetarian tablets. Each tablet provides 113mg of elemental magnesium.
How much elemental magnesium is in each tablet?
Each tablet provides 113mg of elemental magnesium (30% of the EU Nutrient Reference Value). At the labelled dose of three tablets a day, that's 339mg, or 90% of the NRV.
What does magnesium do?
Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function, the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, normal psychological function, and normal energy-yielding metabolism. These are authorised EU health claims that apply to the magnesium content of this product.
Is magnesium malate legal to buy in Ireland?
Yes. Magnesium malate is a permitted source of magnesium for food supplements under EU Directive 2002/46/EC, and this product is regulated as a food supplement by the FSAI.
Is this product suitable for vegetarians?
Yes. The tablet uses a vegetarian coating (hypromellose, calcium carbonate, glycerin) with no gelatin.
How many tablets should I take, and can I take fewer than three?
The labelled dose is 1 tablet up to three times daily, preferably with food. You can take fewer tablets if you only need a smaller amount of magnesium — a single tablet still provides 113mg (30% NRV). Do not exceed three tablets a day.
Are there any precautions?
For adults only. Consult your doctor before use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or have a medical condition. Keep out of reach of children. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
Does a higher NRV percentage mean it works faster or better?
No. The NRV percentage tells you how much of the daily reference intake a serving provides — it isn't a measure of speed or strength of effect. Once your intake meets your needs, taking more does not produce a proportionally bigger effect.
How is it dispatched?
Dispatched next-day from our Dublin warehouse via DPD. As an Ireland-based order, there are no customs charges. Free delivery on orders over €75.
