Slow-Mag Fizzy 30 Effervescent Tablets

Slow-Mag Fizzy is the effervescent version of South Africa's most recognised magnesium brand. It dissolves into a refreshing drink and is a good choice for people who prefer not to swallow capsules or who want to rehydrate at the same time, for example after exercise. The 30-tablet pack covers a month of daily use. Magnesium sits at the centre of energy metabolism, nerve conduction and muscle relaxation, and it helps the body regulate calcium, potassium and vitamin D. Vitamin C is water-soluble and cannot be stored, so immune cells rely on a regular supply. It is also the cofactor for collagen formation, which makes it important for skin, gums and wound healing.

Cramps, fatigue and irritability are the classic signs of running low on magnesium. Intake is often low on a diet built around refined starch, and losses rise with sweating, alcohol, diuretics and long-term acid-suppressing medicine. Night cramps, eyelid twitches, tight shoulders and restless sleep are the usual early signs.
