Magnesium, Christophe Bonnefont and Vassilis Iliopoulos answer your questions…

Join Christophe Bonnefont and Vassilis Iliopoulos in this video on magnesium!

Naturally, the magnesium is one of the most essential minerals for our metabolism. In this video, rich in quality information, Christophe Bonnefont welcomes Vassilis Iliopoulos to answer your questions about magnesium . What about the modern diet and its supposed magnesium content? Indeed, the issue of deficiencies in this mineral comes to the forefront all the time. This is completely normal. Most scientific studies affirm that magnesium deficiencies are among the most common. Figures state that at least 50% of Americans are deficient in it on a daily basis. In Europe and France, statistics also reveal obvious deficiencies, just as much as for vitamin D.

Magnesium, a mineral essential for the synthesis and release of energy

In this video, Christophe Bonnefont and Vassilis Iliopoulos discuss the importance of the importance of magnesium on energy, particularly for ATP. They discuss, for example, the role of related enzymes, from pyruvate to the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (Krebs cycle). One of the most interesting questions on this subject is undoubtedly whether athletes need more magnesium than sedentary people? If so, in what proportions? Many factors must be considered in this regard, including the thyroid's ability to retain magnesium when it is functioning well. Naturally, if sedentary people have mineral deficiencies, athletes are even more likely to report them.

What form of magnesium should be preferred when taking it as a dietary supplement?

As you know, there are many forms of magnesium. Magnesium supplements are generally sold in the form of citrate, bisglycinate, glycerophosphate, sulfate, and other molecules. Christophe Bonnefont and Vassilis Iliopoulos will also answer your questions in detail on this topic. As you know, the molecule bound to magnesium is not unrelated to its assimilation and bioavailability. Other very interesting questions will be addressed during the Live: is there a competition for assimilation between magnesium, potassium and calcium? Are magnesium and taurine linked and why?

In athletes and even in sedentary people, a lack of magnesium can cause cramps. But why? Here too, our two protagonists answer you with examples. One of the most frequently asked questions also concerns whether it must necessarily be taken before sleeping? Should it be combined with wisteria before bed? All your questions will be answered during this video.
