Magnesium taurate
What it is
Combines magnesium with the amino acid taurine, both of which independently support cardiovascular health. The combination may offer synergistic blood pressure and heart rhythm benefits compared to other magnesium forms. Preferred by cardiologists for patients with arrhythmias or hypertension. Gentle on the stomach with minimal laxative effect. Less research than glycinate or citrate forms but strong theoretical rationale for cardiac use.
Dose
200–400 mg elemental magnesium from magnesium taurate; preferred for cardiovascular indications
Time of day & tips
Take with food in the evening — magnesium can have a calming effect and helps with sleep. Avoid taking with calcium supplements at the same time if possible.
