CAS 3632-91-5: Magnesium gluconate
Description:Magnesium gluconate is a chemical compound that serves as a magnesium supplement and is often used in dietary formulations. It is the magnesium salt of gluconic acid, which is derived from glucose. This compound is typically found in the form of a white to off-white powder and is soluble in water, making it suitable for various applications in both food and pharmaceutical industries. Magnesium gluconate is known for its relatively high bioavailability, meaning it can be effectively absorbed by the body, which is beneficial for individuals looking to increase their magnesium intake. It plays a crucial role in numerous physiological functions, including muscle function, nerve transmission, and energy production. Additionally, it is often used to help alleviate symptoms of magnesium deficiency, which can lead to muscle cramps, fatigue, and other health issues. As with any supplement, it is important to use magnesium gluconate under appropriate guidance to avoid potential side effects or interactions with other medications.
