Founded in 2006 near Salzburg, BIOGENA is an Austrian company specialized in developing dietary supplements. The brand has been built around close collaboration with healthcare professionals (doctors, therapists, and nutrition specialists).
Their goal is to offer targeted formulas, with nutrients in different forms and the cleanest possible compositions. The brand notably highlights the use of vegetable capsules and the absence of additives in its formulations.
This approach can be found in several products in the range, including the 7 Salts Magnesium complex, which combines different forms of magnesium in a single formula.
Magnesium, an essential mineral for the body
Magnesium is one of the minerals essential for the normal functioning of the body. It is involved in numerous enzymatic reactions.
According to the authorized nutrition and health claims in the European Union, magnesium contributes in particular to:
- the normal functioning of the nervous system
- normal muscle function
- normal energy-yielding metabolism
- electrolyte balance
- the reduction of fatigue
In practice, some nutritional surveys suggest that a part of the population has magnesium intakes below nutritional recommendations.
Several factors can explain this: changes in eating habits, consumption of more refined foods, or needs that may vary depending on life stages.
In this context, some people choose to turn to food supplements in order to supplement their intake.
Seven forms of magnesium in a single formula: the Magnesium 7 Salts complex
In food supplements, magnesium is always associated with another molecule: this is referred to as a magnesium salt.
Thus, you can find different forms in supplements, such as:
- magnesium citrate
- magnesium bisglycinate
- magnesium malate
- magnesium oxide
- magnesium carbonate
Each salt has different characteristics, particularly with regard to the content of elemental magnesium.
In its 7-Salt Magnesium complex, BIOGENA combines several forms in a single formula:
- magnesium bisglycinate
- magnesium citrate
- magnesium malate
- magnesium glycerophosphate
- magnesium gluconate
- magnesium carbonate
- magnesium oxide
A simple formula and an adjustable dosage
In BIOGENA’s 7-Salt Magnesium complex, each capsule provides around 140 mg of elemental magnesium.
The brand recommends taking one to two capsules per day, which makes it possible to adjust intake according to needs and the recommendations of a healthcare professional.
The formulation remains simple: vegetable capsules, vegan formula, gluten-free, lactose-free and colorant-free.
A positioning consistent with BIOGENA’s approach, which emphasizes formulas focused on active ingredients.
Who is this type of supplement for?
Magnesium supplements are generally used to complement dietary intake when it is considered insufficient.
As with any dietary supplement, it is recommended to use it as part of a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
In case of medical treatment, pregnancy or a particular situation, it is preferable to seek advice from a healthcare professional.
