About magnesium

What is magnesium good for?

Magnesium is an essential mineral that helps support normal muscle and nerve
function, energy production, electrolyte balance, and bone health. Adequate
magnesium intake also contributes to normal psychological function and overall
daily wellness.

Why choose VAL Magnesium?

VAL has supported family wellness for nearly 29 years. Our products are made in
the USA under strict quality standards, designed to be family-friendly, and
formulated with well-studied forms of magnesium for daily use.

How much magnesium should I take daily?

Nutrition guidelines suggest most adults need about 400–420 mg/day (men) and
310–320 mg/day (women) of magnesium from all sources (food + supplements).

In real life, many people don’t consistently reach those amounts from diet alone— an analysis of NHANES 2013–2016 found that 48% of Americans consume less
magnesium from food and beverages than their EAR.

Also, about 50–60% of the body’s magnesium is stored in the bones, serving as a
reserve.

That’s why at Buy Supplements we talk about supplementing to close the gap—
supporting not only healthy daily intake, but also helping maintain strong
magnesium reserves. Our adult formula delivers 500 mg per serving, a
straightforward way to complement your routine when diet isn’t enough.

How long should I take magnesium?

Magnesium can be used long-term as part of a healthy routine, especially when
dietary intake is low or lifestyle demands are high. Duration and dose depend on
your individual needs.Consult a healthcare provider if you have questions.

Can I use VAL magnesium products while pregnant or nursing?

Many people use magnesium during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but needs and
tolerances vary. We recommend consulting your healthcare provider to choose the
best product and dose for you.

Is there any risk in taking too much magnesium (oral) or using transdermalmagnesium?


Oral magnesium (capsules/tablets or powders):
Magnesium is generally well tolerated, but taking too much at once may cause
digestive discomfort, especially loose stools/diarrhea. If that happens, reduce the
amount or split your serving into two doses.
If you have kidney disease or take medications, consult your healthcare provider
before use.
Transdermal magnesium (sprays/lotions):
Because it’s applied to the skin, it doesn’t go through the digestive system, so
many people prefer it when they want to avoid GI discomfort or complement their
oral routine.
Some users may notice tingling/itching or skin sensitivity, especially on very
sensitive skin. Start with a small patch test, avoid delicate areas, and if irritation
occurs, rinse off and reapply with less product.
VAL’s transdermal formulas include moisturizing agents to help keep the skin
comfortable and minimize that typical “magnesium tingle” sensation.


Can children use VAL magnesium products?

Yes—VAL offers children-focused magnesium options formulated with ageappropriate doses. For children, we recommend following the label and consulting
a pediatrician for personalized guidance.

Magnesium Benefits

Why is magnesium so important?

Magnesium supports hundreds of biochemical processes in the body. Because we
don’t produce it ourselves, we rely on diet and supplementation to meet daily
needs. Many people fall short of recommended intake—especially during high
stress, intense activity, or unbalanced diets.

Why do people use magnesium for stress and relaxation?

Magnesium contributes to normal nervous system function and psychological
function. It also plays roles in pathways involved in relaxation and neurotransmitter
balance. While results vary by person, maintaining adequate magnesium intake is
commonly associated with feeling more supported during demanding periods.

Does stress deplete magnesium?

Long-term stress can be associated with changes in magnesium balance and
higher nutritional demand. Ensuring adequate intake through diet and
supplementation can help support overall resilience and daily wellness.
.

Does magnesium make you sleepy?

Magnesium is not a sedative. However, because it supports relaxation pathways
and normal nervous system function, many people prefer taking it in the evening
as part of a wind-down routine.

Usage & Dosage

Can I take oral magnesium and use transdermal magnesium at the same time?

Yes, many people combine both. Oral magnesium supports overall intake, while
transdermal products are often used for targeted comfort and relaxation routines.
Always use products as directed and consider your total magnesium intake.

Is it better to apply Magnesium Cream or Roll-On before or after my workout?

Both can work depending on your routine:
Before a workout: to support a warm-up/comfort routine
After a workout: to support relaxation and recovery

When is the best time of day to use magnesium?

It depends on your goals and routine:
Evening: commonly used to support relaxation and nighttime routines
Morning / pre-activity: commonly used to support muscle function and daily
energy routines
The best time is the one you can follow consistently.

About Our Products & Ingredients

Which types of magnesium are used in VAL products?

VAL uses multiple forms of magnesium depending on the product. Many formulas
include well-absorbed forms such as magnesium glycinate, magnesium citrate,
and magnesium taurate.

Where does VAL’s magnesium come from?


Transdermal magnesium (creams, roll-on, sprays, etc.): We use magnesium
chloride sourced from the Zechstein deposits in Veendam, the Netherlands—
ancient mineral layers formed from the Zechstein Sea.
Oral magnesium (capsules/tablets/powders): Our magnesium ingredients are
sourced from qualified, quality-vetted suppliers selected for purity and
performance, and our products are manufactured in the USA following dietary
supplement cGMP standards (21 CFR Part 111).

Do your magnesium creams have a scent?

Our transdermal creams typically have a mild, natural scent and do not use
artificial fragrances. Some specialty items (e.g., aromatherapy variants) may
include a light natural fragrance.

Is the Magnesium Roll-On sticky after application?

No. Our transdermal magnesium absorbs quickly, leaving the skin feeling smooth
and comfortable.
