Magnesium L-threonate is a special form of magnesium that can cross the blood-brain barrier much better than conventional magnesium compounds. This increases the magnesium level directly in the brain, which is crucial for memory, learning ability and neuronal regeneration. Studies suggest that this special magnesium compound can contribute to both the prevention and therapeutic support of dementia.
