Life Extension Extend-Release Magnesium (60 Vegetarian Capsules)
A calm, steady way to support daily magnesium intake—without the quick spike or crash.
Product Overview
Life Extension’s Extend-Release Magnesium is designed to deliver magnesium gradually, helping maintain steady levels through the day. If fast-dissolving tablets upset your stomach—or you forget split doses—an extended-release format can be a simple, consistent solution.

How to Use
Follow the directions on your bottle’s label. Many adults take magnesium with food and water, at the same time each day for consistency. If you’re new to magnesium, start with the lowest suggested amount and evaluate comfort and response.
