Magnesium is a critical cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions, essential for ATP production, DNA stability, and neuromuscular function. The liposomal formulation encapsulates magnesium in lipid spheres, which may enhance its absorption and bioavailability by protecting it from degradation in the digestive tract and facilitating cellular uptake.
