About MAGNESIUM BISGLYCINATE+L CARNITINE L TARTRATE

MAGNESIUM BISGLYCINATE+L CARNITINE L TARTRATE belongs to the class of 'nutritional supplements,' primarily used to treat magnesium and carnitine (an amino acid) deficiencies. Hypomagnesaemia/magnesium deficiency is a condition that occurs when a person has abnormally low blood magnesium levels. Carnitine deficiency is a metabolic muscle disease caused by low levels of carnitine. 

MAGNESIUM BISGLYCINATE+L CARNITINE L TARTRATE contains Magnesium bisglycinate and L-Carnitine L-Tartrate. Magnesium bisglycinate is a mineral that helps in the normal functioning of muscles and nerves. It helps treat low levels of magnesium in the blood. When taken as a supplement, the body converts L-Carnitine into acetyl-L-carnitine and propionyl-L-carnitine. These products further help the body to produce energy from fat.

Medicinal Benefits

MAGNESIUM BISGLYCINATE+L CARNITINE L TARTRATE is composed of Magnesium bisglycinate and L-Carnitine L-Tartrate. Magnesium bisglycinate is a mineral that helps in the normal functioning of muscles and nerves. It also increases bone mineral density and maintains joint and bone health. L-Carnitine L-Tartrate is a naturally occurring derivative obtained from amino acids, lysine and methionine. When the body lacks the carnitine, MAGNESIUM BISGLYCINATE+L CARNITINE L TARTRATE helps replace those low levels. L-Carnitine is further converted into acetyl-L-carnitine and propionyl-L-carnitine in the body. These products further help the body to produce energy from fat. It also plays a role as a water-soluble vitamin, antilipemic drug (lowers blood cholesterol), and a nootropic agent (improves cognitive function).

    Disease/Condition Glossary

    Hypomagnesaemia: It is a condition that occurs when a person has abnormally low blood magnesium levels. This occurs when a person does not get enough magnesium in their diet, or he/she is unable to absorb magnesium properly. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, weakness, personality changes, tremor, fatigue, seizures, irregular heartbeat, and high blood pressure.

    Carnitine deficiency: It is a metabolic muscle disease caused by low levels of carnitine. Carnitine is an amino acid that helps produce energy from fatty acids. Carnitine deficiency can be primary and secondary. Primary carnitine deficiency occurs due to a genetic mutation in the substance responsible for bringing the carnitine into the cells. Secondary carnitine deficiency occurs when there is not enough carnitine in the blood. Symptoms of carnitine deficiency include weakness in the muscles of the hips, shoulders, upper arms, and legs, low blood sugar, fatigue, vomiting, abdominal pain, growth retardation, and low weight.
