- When? Take at any time of the day, ideally on an empty stomach, i.e. 45 minutes before breakfast or 2 hours after your last meal. Alternatively, take with a meal containing fat for better absorption of vitamins D3 and K2 (e.g. olive oil, avocado, nuts, fatty fish).
- How? Drink plenty of water. We do not recommend combining it with other minerals - calcium can reduce the absorption of magnesium, zinc and iron in particular, so we recommend taking them at least 2-3 hours apart.
Magnesium, zinc + vitamin B6 - 120 capsules
- How many? 2 capsules daily.
- When? Ideally taken on an empty stomach, i.e. 45 minutes before breakfast or, conversely, 2 hours after the last meal. In case of nausea, it can be used before going to bed. Taking before bed can improve sleep quality.
- How? We do not recommend combining it with calcium, i.e. food rich in this mineral (dairy products), because calcium affects the bioavailability of zinc.
