Our magnesium citrate malate powder is a highly soluble organic mineral salt made by carefully regulated crystallisation. The product is a free-flowing, white to off-white powder with homogeneous particles and no discernible clumping tendency. In order to create a stable complex, magnesium is synergistically mixed with citric and malic acids in a particular ratio. It has better solubility than traditional magnesium organic acid salts and may quickly disperse in water at room temperature to generate a transparent or microemulsified solution.
The product's moderate bulk density, good flowability, and lack of hygroscopicity make it appropriate for a variety of processing techniques, including wet granulation, direct tableting, and direct mixing of solid beverages. To satisfy the needs of various dosage forms and mixing procedures, particle size can be supplied in standard, fine, or customised distribution standards. To ensure batch-to-batch consistency, every batch of product is tested for a variety of indications, such as content, heavy metals, arsenic, lead, cadmium, microbiological limitations, and dissolving characteristics. Technical data and comprehensive test results are accessible.
Product Characteristics
Looks like: Fine white powder, easy to blend.
Solubility: Excellent (>100 g/L water), dissolves completely to form a clear solution, unlike magnesium oxide which precipitates.
Magnesium content: Elemental magnesium accounts for approximately 12-15%
Taste: Slightly acidic, astringent, and mildly bitter, but significantly more palatable than inorganic salts such as magnesium sulfate.
pH: Approximately 5-6 (near neutral), relatively mild on the stomach and teeth.

Benefits of magnesium citrate malate powder
Neutral Taste Profile: Typically formulated to have a mild, non-overpowering flavor, making it easy to mix into smoothies, juices, or plain water without significantly altering the taste.
Chelated Form: The magnesium is bound to both citrate and malate (organic compounds), which are commonly studied for their efficient absorption pathways in the body.
Gentle on Digestion: Compared to other magnesium forms (like oxide), this combination is less likely to cause a strong laxative effect, making it suitable for regular, daily use without discomfort.
Vegan & Allergen-Friendly: Most high-quality versions are free from common allergens (dairy, gluten, soy), artificial colors, and preservatives, and are certified vegan or non-GMO.
High Bioavailability Potential: The citrate and malate ligands help protect the mineral from being neutralized by stomach acid, supporting its transport to soft tissues.

FAQ
Q: What is the difference between magnesium citrate malate and a blend of magnesium citrate and magnesium malate?
A: Magnesium citrate malate is a true co-salt where citrate and malate are combined in a single molecule or crystal structure, providing uniform composition. A physical blend is simply two separate salts mixed together.
Q: Is this product suitable for clear liquid applications?
A: Yes. Magnesium citrate malate is highly water-soluble and produces a clear to slightly hazy solution, ideal for clear beverages.
Q: Does it have a bitter taste?
A: No. Unlike inorganic magnesium salts, magnesium citrate malate has a neutral to faintly tart taste, making it suitable for flavored beverages.
Q: Can this product be used in vegan supplements?
A: Yes. No animal-derived ingredients are used.
Q: Do you provide samples?
A: Yes, free samples (10–20 g) are available for qualified clients.
