Why this certification matters
- Informed Sport
- Informed Sport certification is especially relevant for athletes in tested sports because products are batch-tested for substances prohibited in sport.
Frequently asked questions
- Why is the Amazon UK price much higher than Healthspan direct?
- Healthspan direct lists at £10.79 and Amazon UK at £18.99. The Amazon listing is likely a larger pack — Healthspan's own site tends to list the standard tub. Confirm pack size on the live listing before comparing.
- What form of magnesium is in it?
- Check the live product label for the specific magnesium form (citrate, glycinate, oxide, malate etc.). Different forms have different bioavailability and side-effect profiles.
- Is the Informed Sport cert meaningful for magnesium?
- For tested athletes who want banned-substance assurance across every supplement, yes — Informed Sport tests each batch regardless of category.
- When should I take magnesium?
- Magnesium is often taken pre-bed (some users report sleep benefits) or with meals if you're sensitive to GI effects. There's no strict timing requirement.
- How does it compare to Kinetica ZINC MAG +?
- Kinetica's product combines zinc and magnesium (and often B6 — ZMA-style). Healthspan Elite Magnesium Plus is magnesium-focused. Pick by what else you want in the formula.
