Your Element 12 Magnesium just got even better!
At About Health we are always looking at ways to make our formulas better and aligned with the latest research. We’ve made some enhancements to our popular Element 12 Magnesium formulation. Rest assured that you are still going to be getting a magnesium product that delivers high quality forms of magnesium that are well absorbed, gentle on your stomach and do just what you want your magnesium supplement to do, like Element 12 Magnesium always has.
Element 12 Magnesium is a blend of 12 important nutrients designed to support relaxation, healthy nerve, muscle and mood function. Magnesium is present in over 400 biological functions within the body and a deficiency in this mineral can lead to muscle spasms and restless legs as well as mood imbalance and broken sleep.

Element 12 contains 3 different forms of magnesium – all of which offer excellent absorption and bioavailability meaning the body can easily utilise the magnesium provided; these forms are also gentle on the stomach.
Some magnesium complexes offer seemingly much higher amounts of magnesium, such as magnesium oxide and magnesium hydroxide – but these forms have poor bioavailability so you do not end up getting as much magnesium into the body as you do with the forms we have used in Element 12 Magnesium.
There are 3 things we’ve changed/updated:
- We’ve replaced the 10mg (elemental) of magnesium orotate with 10mg of magnesium glycinate. Both of these forms of magnesium are easy for the body to absorb and use. Magnesium glycinate is also commonly used to support relaxation and sleep, along with all the other benefits other well absorbed forms of magnesium offer. The wonderfully absorbed and gentle magnesium citrate and amino acid chelate remain just as they were in the original formulation.
- We’ve taken out l-theanine. This is a nutrient derived from green tea and thought to be responsible for many of the calming effects of green tea. L-theanine is a great nutrient, yet we felt it took some of the focus away from magnesium and we found what many customers really wanted out of a magnesium supplement, is one that delivers magnesium to their body and cells. We want hone our focus on providing the best forms of magnesium, along with excellent co-factors that assist in the absorption and utilisation of magnesium. We have other plans for l-theanine, so keep your eye on our up-coming products
- The B-group vitamins are now ACTIVE! B-group vitamins were added to our Element 12 Magnesium formulation to further assist in the absorption and then utilization of magnesium in the body. And research backs this up. However, with many people not able to efficiently process B vitamins into their metabolically active form, not everyone will get the most benefit out of standard B vitamins. Activated B vitamins are biologically active in the body and generally do not require any metabolic or enzymatic conversion before they can be used by the body.
