NICAPUR® Potassium Magnesium Citrate – Two important minerals for muscles, nerves and electrolyte balance

Further product information

NICAPUR® Potassium Magnesium Citrate combines the essential minerals potassium and magnesium in organically bound citrate forms. The carefully balanced formula is suitable for targeted supplementation of the daily mineral supply.

Potassium and magnesium contribute to normal muscle function and the normal function of the nervous system. Magnesium additionally supports electrolyte balance and normal energy metabolism. Potassium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood pressure.

The combination is particularly suitable for adults who wish to supplement their potassium and magnesium intake, for example in cases of insufficient intake through diet or increased physical exertion.

Properties and benefits

• Muscle function: Potassium and magnesium contribute to normal muscle function.

• Tiredness and fatigue: Magnesium helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.

• Bones and teeth: Magnesium contributes to the maintenance of normal bones and teeth.

• Psychological function: Magnesium supports normal psychological function.

• Organically bound citrate forms: Potassium citrate and magnesium citrate with good solubility.

• Vegan formula: Free from animal-derived ingredients.

• Lactose-free and fructose-free.

Potassium and magnesium – Two essential minerals

Potassium and magnesium fulfill numerous important functions in the human body.

Both are involved in the normal function of muscles and the nervous system.

Potassium is the most abundant positively charged ion within body cells and plays a crucial role in the electrical excitability of nerve and muscle cells.

Magnesium is involved in more than 300 enzymatic metabolic reactions and supports, among other things, energy metabolism and electrolyte balance.

Potassium – Important for muscles, nerves and blood pressure

Potassium is an essential mineral that must be regularly obtained through diet.

It contributes to the normal function of the nervous system and muscles.

Furthermore, potassium supports the maintenance of normal blood pressure.

Potassium-rich foods include, for example, potatoes, legumes, vegetables, fruit and nuts.

Magnesium – For muscles and electrolyte balance

Magnesium is an important component of numerous endogenous metabolic processes.

It contributes to normal muscle function, the normal function of the nervous system and electrolyte balance.

Additionally, magnesium supports normal energy metabolism and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.

A large part of the body's magnesium is found in the bones and muscles.

Potassium and magnesium for muscle function

Potassium and magnesium perform different, complementary functions in muscle activity.

Potassium is important for the electrical excitability of muscle cells and the transmission of nerve impulses.

Magnesium supports energy-dependent processes required for normal muscle function.

An adequate supply of both minerals is therefore particularly important during regular physical activity.

Potassium and magnesium for the nervous system

Nerve cells require a balanced ratio of various electrolytes to transmit electrical signals.

Potassium plays a central role in the generation and transmission of electrical impulses.

Magnesium also supports the normal function of the nervous system and is involved in numerous enzymatic processes.

Potassium and blood pressure

Potassium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood pressure.

An adequate potassium intake through diet is part of a balanced diet.

However, in certain medical conditions, especially impaired kidney function, additional potassium intake may be problematic.

Potassium supplements should therefore not be taken without considering the individual health situation.

Potassium citrate and magnesium citrate – Organically bound minerals

NICAPUR® Potassium Magnesium Citrate contains two mineral compounds:

• Potassium citrate: An organic compound of potassium and citric acid.

• Magnesium citrate: An organic magnesium compound with good solubility and bioavailability.

Both compounds are used for targeted supplementation of the mineral supply.

Potassium and magnesium during physical activity

During intense physical exertion, the body loses fluid and electrolytes through sweating.

An adequate supply of fluid and minerals is therefore important.

Magnesium supports normal electrolyte balance, while potassium and magnesium contribute to normal muscle function.

Additional intake is particularly useful when the mineral supply through diet is insufficient.

Important information

Dietary supplements are not a substitute for a balanced, varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.

Do not exceed the recommended daily intake.

Important for kidney diseases: In cases of impaired kidney function, the excretion of potassium and magnesium may be affected. Therefore, intake should only occur after consulting a doctor.

Potassium and medication: Potassium supplements can lead to increased blood potassium levels when taken simultaneously with certain medications. Particular caution is required with ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers, potassium-sparing diuretics and certain other medications.

Excessively high potassium levels (hyperkalemia) can cause serious heart rhythm disorders.

Magnesium: Higher amounts from dietary supplements may cause loose stools or diarrhea.

Interactions: Magnesium may impair the absorption of certain medications, especially some antibiotics and bisphosphonates. Appropriate intervals between doses should be observed.

When taking other potassium- or magnesium-containing supplements simultaneously, the total mineral intake should be considered.

Storage

Store at room temperature, in a dry place and protected from light. Protect from heat and keep out of reach of small children.
