MAGNESS

Why Standard Blood Tests Don't Detect Magnesium Deficiency

Serum magnesium (from a blood test) reflects less than 1% of the total magnesium in the body. The body keeps serum levels normal even when cellular reserves are depleted, pulling magnesium from bones and muscles. You can have "normal" serum magnesium and still be deficient at the cellular level. The truly relevant test is intracellular (erythrocyte) magnesium, which reflects your actual status over the past 3 months.

The Secret the Industry Doesn't Tell You

Magnesium alone is not enough. What really makes the difference isn't how many milligrams are on the label, but whether the magnesium actually reaches the cell. MAGNESS contains the cofactors that turn absorption into real, usable magnesium.

Who MAGNESS Is For

MAGNESS is suitable for anyone living a modern, fast-paced lifestyle, though certain situations make magnesium deficiency almost inevitable.

• Chronic stress — high cortisol accelerates magnesium loss, and as stress persists, reserves become depleted and the nervous system becomes harder to balance.
• Women — hormonal fluctuations across the menstrual cycle, PCOS, pregnancy, breastfeeding and menopause all drive constant, significant magnesium consumption.
• Active people and athletes — magnesium is lost through sweat, on average 6-8 mg per liter; studies show up to half of athletes have suboptimal levels even with a balanced diet.
• People with insomnia or anxiety — low magnesium keeps the brain in a hyperactive state, which affects sleep, and insufficient sleep further depletes reserves, creating a vicious cycle.
• Certain medications — long-term use of proton pump inhibitors or diuretics is associated with lower magnesium levels, requiring extra attention.
• People with insulin resistance or diabetes — there is a direct link between metabolic imbalance and low magnesium levels; studies show a significant percentage of people with type 2 diabetes are deficient, and certain treatments can worsen this.

Why We Created Our Own Formula

"When I decided to test my intracellular magnesium — not serum magnesium, the misleading, false indicator, but the intracellular one — the result stopped me in my tracks: 1.4 mmol/L against a normal reference range of 1.7–2.5 mmol/L, 33% below the median, despite taking supplements. It wasn't a matter of willpower or compliance. It was a matter of biochemistry, and the fact that no product on the market solved, in one coherent formula, everything needed for magnesium to reach where it matters: the cell. I spent months reading the scientific literature, discussing formulations with a team of researchers and chemists, testing variations and adjusting ratios. The result is MAGNESS." — Angelina Cozma
