Viridian Magnesium Taurate 90 cps

Magnesium taurate is a chelated form of magnesium bonded to an L-taurine molecule. These two substances are highly absorbable by the body and act synergistically. They are aimed at supporting the condition of the blood vessels and the fitness of the entire cardiovascular system (blood vessels and heart). Their effect has been carefully studied scientifically and it has been confirmed that they are related to the condition of endothelial cells (the cells that make up the inner wall of blood vessels) and therefore prevention and support in atherosclerosis, general poor vascular health and also high blood pressure.

The effects of magnesium taurate are related to three areas that are crucial to the condition of the blood vessels:

The heart pumps blood to the body, where it is distributed through blood vessels. In order for blood to flow as needed, blood vessels need to be able to expand and contract again (vasodilation and vasoconstriction). In other words, to make them elastic. If there is an imbalance of the substances responsible for these processes in the body, and the substances that cause the blood vessels to contract (vasoconstrictors) predominate over those that cause them to dilate (vasodilators), the blood vessels become inelastic. Consequently, the entire cardiovascular system begins to deteriorate, blood pressure rises and a more serious condition gradually develops. The effects of nitric oxide are closely related to this area and are very well described scientifically - they are related to vasodilation - the ability of blood vessels (endothelial cells) to dilate.

Oxidative stress is a natural condition in which so-called free radicals (by-products of the body's oxygenation process) are produced in the body. In a normal state, they are flushed out of the body, but with an inappropriate lifestyle (lack of exercise, chronic stress and strain, smoking, poor diet...) they begin to accumulate and damage cells. And among other things, the cells that make up blood vessels. Oxidative stress causes nitric oxide to react with superoxide to form peroxynitrite, which damages endothelial cells. The properties of taurine, which have been very well described scientifically, are related to the body's ability to defend itself against oxidative stress.

Calcium is an element without which the body could not function. However, as always, it must be in balance with the other elements. If there is an excess of calcium and other elements, primarily magnesium, are missing, calcium (calcium salts) begins to be deposited in the tissues and also in the blood vessels. This leads to a phenomenon called calcification of the blood vessels, which causes them to become inflexible and clogged. Gradually, more serious conditions develop. Adequate magnesium levels can help prevent this phenomenon.
