Every individual’s needs are different. Always consult your healthcare provider to determine the right dose for your specific needs.

Doctor-guided support

Visit our Dosage Information and Methylation Protocol pages to learn what some practitioners recommend, including step-by-step guidance for individuals with MTHFR gene variants.

Splitting tablets

Each chewable tablet is scored and can be split in half without a pill cutter. For best results, place your thumbs along the scored line with the tablet facing away from you, and press outward to snap. Watch the full demonstration in our tablet-splitting video.

Additional considerations

This supplement is designed to be taken daily or as recommended by your healthcare practitioner. In the absence of directions from your Healthcare Specialist, consider taking one to two tablets after meals. If you gain some relief from a single tablet, consider taking an additional tablet if you feel a second one may be beneficial.

Again Methyl-Life® has searched the globe to find the highest quality ingredients available for its innovative products.  We’ve discovered a new, highly bioavailable version of magnesium showing greater absorption rates overall. It’s called Sucrosomial® Magnesium and is manufactured in Italy. 

The manufacturer, Alesco, is using a unique technology to encapsulate the mineral with a liposomal-like structure made of phospholipids and sucrose esters from fatty acid; they call it Sucrosome®. The Sucrosome® is similar in structure and properties to cell membranes, which allows for ease of transport into biological membranes.  This means the mineral can bypass the gut’s acids unharmed and be easily digested in the intestine which in turn gives it a clear path for absorption via transcellular and paracellular pathways.

So what does all that really mean? 

Essentially you get more magnesium transported into your cells where your body can actually best use it.  In a rat study, when Sucrosomial® Magnesium was compared to a highly bioavailable version of Magnesium Citrate, it showed a 20% higher absorption rate and that higher blood serum levels of magnesium held over time.  The urine excretion rate of magnesium was much higher and faster with the magnesium citrate, leading us to believe that Sucrosomial® Magnesium is better utilized by the body.

Magnesium plays an essential role in a large number of cellular and metabolic processes:

• biosynthesis of lipids, proteins and nucleic acids to name a few
• it is involved in over 300 enzymatic processes
• it's important for the function of nerves and muscles, allowing the transmission of nerve impulses
• it is essential for mineralization and skeletal development
• Did you know our bones make up 60% of an adult body’s magnesium?
• it also helps with the reduction of fatigue, PMS and Menopause symptoms
• it can enhance sports performance
• acts as an anti-anxiolytic and anti-stress agent
• AND Magnesium is a very important co-factor for methylation support (which is important for those of us dealing with MTHFR and other genetic variants affecting methylation)

Methyl-Life® finally found a version that we’re very proud to make available to our MTHFR customers.  We’re excited to bring you more cellular vitality with our Sucrosomial® Magnesium! 

Science Based Fact: Magnesium is an essential mineral and a cofactor for the COMT (Catechol-O-methyltransferase) enzyme, which is required to transfer a methyl group from SAMe to metabolize dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. Essential for healthy mood, cardiovascular function, and nerve function.
