The Magnesium You're Taking Might Not Be Helping Your Brain (Here's Why You Should Choose Magnesium L-Threonate)

When your eyelid twitches or your leg cramps, you probably reach for magnesium. It’s widely known for relaxing muscles and calming the nervous system.

But what if you've been feeling forgetful, mentally foggy, or struggling to get deep, restful sleep? The truth is, the magnesium you’re taking might not be getting to where you need it most—your brain.

That’s because your brain is protected by a tight security system called the blood-brain barrier (BBB). It’s designed to keep out harmful substances—but it also blocks many nutrients, including most types of magnesium.

Common forms like magnesium oxide or citrate can help your muscles, but they don’t effectively cross the blood-brain barrier. That means they do very little for your memory, focus, or sleep quality.

To solve this problem, researchers at MIT developed Magnesium L-Threonate, a specialized form of magnesium.

Magnesium L-Threonate is currently the only form proven to cross the blood-brain barrier and raise magnesium levels in the brain. This boosts the density of synapses—connections between brain cells—leading to better communication between neurons and improved brain function.

Why is it known as “Brain Magnesium”?

Once it reaches the brain, Magnesium L-Threonate can support:

Better Memory and Learning: Promotes neuroplasticity—your brain’s ability to adapt, learn, and retain information.

Sharper Focus and Mental Clarity: Helps clear brain fog and supports sustained concentration throughout the day.

Deeper, More Restful Sleep: Calms the nervous system and promotes slow-wave (deep) sleep, helping you wake up feeling refreshed.

Nutridom Magnesium L-Threonate is made in Canada under strict GMP standards, delivering 695mg of Magnesium L-Threonate (equivalent to 50mg of elemental magnesium) per capsule—for a form your brain can actually use.

If you care about more than just muscle relaxation—if your productivity, memory, and overall mental wellness matter—it’s time to upgrade your magnesium.
