Magnesium citrate hydrate

Description:
Magnesium citrate hydrate is a chemical compound formed from magnesium, citric acid, and water, commonly used as a dietary supplement and in various pharmaceutical applications. It typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is known for its solubility in water, which facilitates its absorption in the body. The compound serves as a source of magnesium, an essential mineral involved in numerous biochemical processes, including muscle function, nerve transmission, and energy production. Magnesium citrate hydrate is often utilized to alleviate magnesium deficiency and may also have a mild laxative effect, making it useful in certain medical treatments. Its stability is generally good under standard conditions, but it should be stored in a cool, dry place to prevent degradation. Additionally, it is important to note that while magnesium citrate is generally considered safe for most individuals, it may cause gastrointestinal discomfort in some cases, and its use should be monitored, especially in individuals with kidney issues or those taking certain medications.
