Magnesium orotate is a dietary supplement used to support cardiovascular health and improve magnesium levels in the body. It contains magnesium bound to orotic acid, which facilitates its absorption in the body.
This supplement is often recommended for individuals with magnesium deficiency, which can cause symptoms such as fatigue, muscle cramps, or cardiac arrhythmias. Additionally, magnesium orotate is used by athletes to enhance physical performance and muscle recovery.
Although considered safe for most people, excessive use may cause side effects such as diarrhea or abdominal discomfort. It is important to follow the recommended dosage and consult a doctor before use, especially for individuals with kidney conditions.
Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a specialist before taking magnesium orotate to ensure it is safe for use under these conditions.
