Magnesium Citrate Double Strength 250 mg by Nutraxin comes in a bottle of 60 tablets and delivers magnesium in the citrate form, known for its high solubility and bioavailability. Double strength means a higher concentration per tablet, so fewer tablets are needed each day. Magnesium citrate in particular is sought by anyone who has tried cheap mineral magnesium forms and was not satisfied with how well they were absorbed.
What is magnesium citrate?
Magnesium citrate is a salt formed when the magnesium ion binds to citric acid, the same organic acid the Krebs cycle revolves around to produce energy inside the mitochondria. It is classified among the organic magnesium forms, which differ fundamentally from mineral forms such as magnesium oxide in how readily they dissolve within the digestive tract.
Benefits of magnesium citrate
- Muscle relaxation support: Magnesium participates in moving calcium out of the muscle cell after contraction, the step at which relaxation happens.
- Sleep quality support: Magnesium is associated with modulating the activity of calming receptors in the central nervous system.
- Energy production support: The energy molecule inside the cell does not function unless it is bound to a magnesium ion.
- Nervous system support: Magnesium is linked with supporting mood balance and reducing neuronal over-excitation.
- Bone health support: Magnesium is part of bone structure and takes part in activating vitamin D into its effective form.
- Bowel regularity support: The citrate form draws water into the intestinal lumen, supporting softness of the contents.
How magnesium works in the body
Magnesium works in the body as an enzymatic cofactor in more than three hundred biological reactions, the most important of which involve the energy molecule: its effective form inside the cell is the one bound to a magnesium ion that balances the negative charges of the phosphate groups. At the muscle level, magnesium acts as a natural competitor to calcium at ion channels, preventing sustained contraction and letting the fibres return to rest. At the level of the brain it binds to NMDA receptors and lowers neuronal over-excitation. The citrate portion, once separated, enters the Krebs cycle directly, so nothing is wasted.
What sets the citrate form apart
Magnesium citrate stands out as an organic, water-soluble form, unlike magnesium oxide, which is poorly soluble. That difference is decisive, because the mineral is absorbed only after dissolving into free ions in intestinal fluid; the number printed on the pack means nothing if the salt does not dissolve. The dose here is 250 mg per tablet under the double strength description, and the bottle contains 60 tablets.
Who is this product for?
- Anyone experiencing muscle cramps at night or after training.
- Anyone wanting support for sleep quality and evening relaxation.
- Anyone who tried magnesium oxide and noticed no difference.
- Athletes losing minerals through heavy sweating.
- Anyone preferring a concentrated dose that reduces the daily tablet count.
How to use
The daily dose of magnesium citrate is taken with a meal and a glass of water, following the directions printed on the pack. Splitting the dose in two is useful where needed, because the absorbed percentage falls as the single dose rises, making two smaller doses more effective than one large one. Evening dosing suits anyone who associates it with relaxation and sleep support.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between magnesium citrate and magnesium oxide?
Magnesium citrate is a water-soluble organic salt that dissociates into free ions available for absorption, whereas magnesium oxide is a poorly soluble mineral form of which a large part passes through unabsorbed. This is why Nutraxin Magnesium Citrate combines the organic form with a dose of 250 mg per tablet.
When is magnesium citrate best taken?
Magnesium citrate is best taken with food to reduce the chance of loosening the bowel contents, and many people choose the evening because they associate it with relaxation support. Sticking to one consistent daily time remains the most important factor.
Can magnesium be taken with calcium at the same time?
Magnesium and calcium compete for closely related absorption pathways in the intestine, so separating them by two hours is preferable when taking high doses of both. Where a treatment plan is in place, the full list should be shown to a doctor.
