Additional supply of minerals and trace elements

Dietary supplements make a positive contribution to mental and physical health. In addition to the normal diet, they represent an important supplement and provide athletes or all those with an increased nutritional requirement with important minerals. They perfectly support health and regeneration of the human body. Tablets, capsules, sachets or powders are useful additives in everyday nutrition - not only for athletic people, but basically for everyone, for example in case of:

  • pregnancy and breast feeding period
  • increased physical activity
  • physical and mental challenges in work and leisure
  • demanding phases of life
  • one-sided diet
  • illness that requires an increased intake of minerals

Essential: minerals from MAGNESIA

Minerals are micronutrients and cannot be produced by the body itself, but must be taken in with food. They are required for a large number of biochemical processes in the human body and are therefore essential for life. Monocultures as well as depleted agricultural soils lead to a reduced nutrient content in our food, and the modern and accelerated way of life in our modern society also makes increasing demands on our diet. As a component of dietary supplements and sports nutrition, minerals provide important building blocks for muscles and bones.
