NCT03353636

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the superiority of Natural Calm magnesium powder with respect to absorption when compared to three marketed forms of magnesium (two magnesium bisglycinate powders and magnesium citrate capsules). The primary endpoints were serum magnesium AUC (0-8h) and urine magnesium AUC (0-8h) after a single dose of 150 mg elemental magnesium.
