About the ingredients

Vitamin B6:

A very well-known and effective diuretic, vitamin B6 is a water-soluble vitamin that is naturally present in many foods, added to others and
available as a dietary supplement. It is the generic name for six compounds (vitamers) with vitamin B6 activity: pyridoxine, an alcohol; pyridoxal, an aldehyde; and pyridoxamine, which contains an amino group; and their respective 5’-phosphate esters.
Pyridoxal 5’ phosphate (PLP) and pyridoxamine 5’ phosphate (PMP) are the active coenzyme forms of vitamin B6. Vitamin B6 in coenzyme forms
performs a wide variety of functions in the body and is extremely versatile, with involvement in more than 100 enzyme reactions, mostly
concerned with protein metabolism. Vitamin B6 contributes to the normal function of the immune system, the regulation of hormonal
activity, normal cysteine synthesis, normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal homocysteine metabolism, normal protein and
glycogen metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

Magnesium:

Magnesium, an abundant mineral in the body, is naturally present in many
foods, added to other food products, available as a dietary supplement and present in some medicines
(such as antacids and laxatives). Magnesium is a cofactor in more than 300 enzyme systems that regulate
diverse biochemical reactions in the body, including protein synthesis, muscle and nerve function, blood glucose control, and blood pressure regulation. Magnesium
is required for energy production, oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis. It contributes to the structural development of bone and is required for the synthesis of
DNA, RNA, and the antioxidant glutathione.
Magnesium also plays a role in the active transport of calcium and potassium ions across cell membranes, a process that is important to nerve impulse conduction,
muscle contraction, and normal heart rhythm. Magnesium contributes to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue, electrolyte balance, normal energy-yielding
metabolism, normal functioning of the nervous system, normal muscle function, normal protein synthesis, normal psychological function, the maintenance of normal
bones and teeth, and it has a role in the process of cell division. A well-known contributor to correct fluid balance within cells (hence its diuretic effect) and for
its vital role in muscular contractions.
