Collagen with magnesium is one of our most well-known products. Here we answer, in a simple way, the most common questions about its composition, benefits, and daily use.
COLLAGEN
Why does Ana María Lajusticia® collagen contain magnesium?
Magnesium helps the body form proteins such as collagen, which provides structure to bones, cartilage, muscles, ligaments, and skin.
In other words, it helps keep what supports and moves your body strong and flexible.
That’s why we combine both nutrients: they work better together.

What is the difference between Collagen with Magnesium and Collagen with Magnesium + Vitamin C?
Both provide collagen and magnesium, but the one with vitamin C goes a step further: vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation, which is necessary for the proper functioning of cartilage, bones, skin, blood vessels, and gums.
If you don’t eat much fruit or vegetables, the version with vitamin C may be a good option for you.

What is the origin of the Collagen?
We offer two main types:
• Porcine-derived collagen, obtained from skin and bones, which undergoes a natural enzymatic hydrolysis process to facilitate digestion and absorption.
• Peptan® marine collagen, sourced from the skin of 100% sustainably caught fish, with certified traceability. Its low molecular weight promotes excellent bioavailability.
In addition, we offer a plant-based alternative made with legume proteins (pea and lentil) and essential amino acids, designed for those who do not consume animal-derived products.

How much collagen do I need per day?
A regular diet provides between 2 and 4 g of collagen per day.
During periods of higher wear, aging, or physical activity, it may be beneficial to reach 6–10 g daily to keep connective tissue in good condition.
That’s why we include it in different formats and concentrations.

When I choose the tablet format, why do I need to take several per day?
Because proteins and minerals take up space: several tablets are needed to reach the daily dose.
If you prefer, there are also powder and liquid options, equally effective.

MAGNESIUM
What types of magnesium exist and how do they differ?
There are several forms of magnesium, and each is absorbed and tolerated differently.
For example, chloride has a more stimulating effect on intestinal transit, while carbonate is gentler.
Magnesium Total® 5 combines chelated forms (such as citrate and bisglycinate) with others of gradual release to achieve balanced and sustained absorption.
That’s why we combine both nutrients: they work better together.

Why can magnesium have a laxative effect?
When the body doesn’t absorb all the magnesium ingested, the excess remains in the intestine and draws water, easing bowel movements by softening the stool.
This effect varies depending on the form chosen: chloride is more active, while slow-release formulas are gentler.

Can I have an excess of magnesium if I take it daily?
It usually doesn’t happen, as the body naturally regulates its absorption and elimination.
Only people with kidney failure should consult their doctor before taking supplements.
How long can I take magnesium?
You can take it continuously, as it’s a nutrient we need every day.
Maintaining a good magnesium level helps the normal functioning of muscles, nerves, and energy metabolism, especially during periods of increased fatigue or activity.

If you are being treated with medication for mood or sleep, always consult your doctor before taking supplements with tryptophan, as they act on the same neurotransmitters.
How long should I take tryptophan or melatonin to notice results?
Melatonin acts quickly: it helps from the first dose to fall asleep more easily.
In the case of tryptophan, its effect is better noticed with regular intake over several weeks, as it contributes to the natural balance of the neurotransmitters of well-being.
