Viridian Magnesium Taurate

Viridian Magnesium Taurate is a specialised form of magnesium uniquely suited to cardiovascular and neurological support. In this formulation, magnesium is chelated with taurine — an amino acid naturally found in high concentrations in the heart, brain, and retina. The combination of these two nutrients creates a particularly targeted supplement for heart health, blood pressure regulation, and neurological wellbeing, as both magnesium and taurine independently and synergistically support these systems.

Magnesium is well established as an essential mineral for cardiovascular health. It contributes to normal muscle function, including the heart muscle, and plays a role in regulating the electrical activity of the heart. Adequate magnesium status is associated with healthy blood pressure, normal heart rhythm, and protection against cardiovascular risk factors. Magnesium also supports normal muscle relaxation, reducing the likelihood of arterial stiffness and spasm.

Taurine is a conditionally essential amino acid with unique physiological properties. It has powerful antioxidant and membrane-stabilising effects, is required for the conjugation of bile acids for fat digestion, and plays a regulatory role in cardiovascular function. Taurine is found in particularly high concentrations in heart muscle, where it is believed to support calcium handling, heart contractility, and protection against oxidative stress. Research has also explored taurine's role in supporting healthy blood pressure and vascular function.

The combination of magnesium and taurine in a single chelate offers a synergistic approach to cardiovascular and neurological nutrition. This supplement contains 100% active ingredients, no artificial fillers, and is suitable for vegans. Produced in the UK by Viridian.
