Mg/K Aspartate™ by Metagenics – Cellular Energy and Mineral Support
Mg/K Aspartate™ combines two essential minerals in a straightforward daily tablet formula. This magnesium and potassium supplement provides 100 mg of magnesium and 160 mg of potassium per two-tablet serving, with both minerals supplied as aspartates. It is designed to support normal cell function and energy production, making it an option to discuss when your healthcare practitioner recommends adding these minerals to your nutritional routine. The 60-tablet bottle contains 30 servings at the labeled serving size.
Key Mg/K Aspartate™ Benefits
- Provides cellular energy support through magnesium's role in the reactions that help the body use energy from food.*
- Contributes minerals involved in normal muscle function and the electrical activity that allows muscles and nerves to communicate.*
- Offers a focused combination of magnesium aspartate and potassium aspartate rather than a broad multivitamin or flavored drink mix.
How Mg/K Aspartate™ Works
Magnesium and potassium have complementary jobs inside cells. Magnesium participates in enzyme reactions involved in energy metabolism and helps support the use of ATP, the body's principal energy-transfer molecule. Potassium helps maintain the electrical differences across cell membranes that are necessary for healthy nerve signaling and muscle activity. Supporting these normal physiological processes is different from providing a stimulant: these minerals do not supply caffeine or replace the energy and nutrients obtained from meals.*
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Magnesium: An essential mineral involved in energy metabolism, protein synthesis, and normal skeletal muscle function. The magnesium aspartate in this formula supplies 100 mg of magnesium per serving.*
- Potassium: An intracellular electrolyte important for normal cellular function. Here, potassium aspartate provides 160 mg of potassium per serving to complement dietary intake.*
The listed mineral amounts represent magnesium and potassium, not the total weight of each aspartate compound. This distinction helps you compare the formula with other mineral products and review your total intake. A targeted daily mineral supplement can fit alongside a varied diet, but it is not a complete electrolyte replacement plan for prolonged exercise or fluid loss.
Mg/K Aspartate™ Is Formulated For
- Adults whose practitioner recommends supplemental magnesium and potassium as part of an individualized nutritional plan.
- People looking for a tablet-based way to complement food sources of these two essential minerals.
- Those reviewing mineral intake for everyday cellular, muscle, and nerve support, with attention to their existing supplements and medications.*

Frequently Asked Questions About Mg/K Aspartate™
What are the benefits of Mg/K Aspartate™?
Mg/K Aspartate™ supplies magnesium and potassium to support normal cellular function. Magnesium contributes to the reactions involved in energy production, while potassium supports the electrical balance cells need for normal activity. Together, these minerals have roles in muscle and nerve function. Each two-tablet serving provides 100 mg of magnesium and 160 mg of potassium. It is a focused way to supplement dietary intake, not a stimulant or a substitute for a varied diet.*
Who should consider Mg/K Aspartate™?
Adults whose healthcare practitioner recommends additional magnesium and potassium may find this combination convenient. Whether it fits your needs depends on your food intake, other supplements, medicines, and health history—not simply on being active or feeling tired. Review the serving amounts with your practitioner before adding it to a multivitamin or another mineral product. If you are pregnant, nursing, or choosing a supplement for a child, seek individualized professional guidance rather than assuming this adult routine is appropriate.
Can Mg/K Aspartate™ cause side effects or interact with medicines?
Mineral supplements can cause digestive discomfort, and supplemental magnesium may cause loose stools in some people. Potassium needs particular care if kidney function is impaired or you take medicines that raise potassium levels, including potassium-sparing diuretics and some blood pressure medicines. Magnesium can also affect absorption of certain medicines. Ask your healthcare practitioner or pharmacist to review your complete routine and advise on timing. Do not increase the dose on your own, and stop use and seek advice if unwanted effects occur.
How does Mg/K Aspartate™ fit into an overall wellness routine?
Use it as one part of a practitioner-guided plan that prioritizes varied meals, appropriate hydration, regular movement, and adequate rest. The manufacturer recommends two tablets daily or as directed by your healthcare practitioner. The 60-tablet bottle supplies 30 servings at that serving size. Magnesium- and potassium-containing foods remain important even when you use a supplement. Review your overall mineral intake periodically, especially if your medicines or health needs change, rather than adding overlapping products automatically.
