Why Take Collagen with Magnesium and Vitamin C?

Our Collagen with Magnesium is specially formulated to support your joints, bones, skin, and muscles. We add Magnesium because it plays a key role in the natural production of proteins, including Collagen, which makes up about 38% of the body's protein. Collagen is essential for the health of bones, ligaments, muscles, cartilage, and skin.

By combining Collagen and Magnesium, we help promote collagen regeneration, contributing to the normal function of muscles, the maintenance of strong bones, and the repair of connective tissues.

Why combine Collagen with Vitamin C?

Taking Collagen with Magnesium and Vitamin C enhances your results. Vitamin C supports the normal formation of collagen and plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy cartilage, bones, gums, skin, and teeth. This trio is ideal for anyone seeking a joint support supplement, or looking to improve bone strength, muscle function, and the appearance of skin, hair, and nails.

What's the difference between Collagen tablets from Ana Maria Lajusticia® and AMLSport®?

There is no difference in the formula. Both contain the same high-quality collagen with magnesium and vitamin C. The only difference is the size of the container. Whether you choose Ana Maria Lajusticia® or AMLSport®, you're getting the best collagen supplement for joint, bone, and skin health.

What is the origin of Collagen?

It comes from the skin and/or bones of the pig or cow, depending on the case (This type of native Collagen is type I and II).

This native Collagen undergoes the hydrolyzation process: it is a natural (non-chemical) process that consists of gelatinization by cooking with steam, followed by enzymatic hydrolysis, and which has 2 main objectives:

“pre-digest” the Collagen: Hydrolyzation breaks the complex chains that form the Collagen protein and, as a result, small peptides are obtained that easily cross the intestinal barrier and their bioavailability is much higher. If Collagen were not previously hydrolyzed, our body would not absorb it and we would eliminate it without taking advantage of it.
Provide "food safety" to the raw material: the hydrolyzation process received specific approval from the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA-Q-2004-085). Hydrolyzation is essential for collagen to be suitable for human consumption.

How should I take Collagen with Magnesium?

Always follow the instructions on the product label. You can take the supplements before, during, or after meals—whenever it’s most convenient for you.

Are there any side effects or contraindications?

Generally, Collagen with Magnesium is well-tolerated. However, if you have kidney problems, we strongly recommend consulting your healthcare provider before starting any supplement routine.

Can I take Ana Maria Lajusticia® supplements while on medication?

There are no known contraindications between our products and prescription medications. Still, as with any supplement, please consult your doctor or pharmacist before beginning any new health regimen.

How much collagen do I need per day?

The body requires 8 to 10 grams of collagen per day, but this amount is rarely met through diet alone. Supplementing with collagen peptides or collagen with magnesium is an effective way to support joint flexibility, bone density, and skin elasticity.

How much magnesium should I take daily?

The recommended daily intake of Magnesium is 375 mg, but Ana María Lajusticia suggests a slightly higher amount—around 400 mg/day—for optimal muscle function, energy production, and nervous system health.

Is collagen with magnesium good for Osteoarthritis?

Yes, Collagen with Magnesium can be beneficial for those with osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is often related to protein, Vitamin C, or magnesium deficiency. To support cartilage regeneration, we recommend:

6 to 9 tablets daily, divided between breakfast and dinner
Or a teaspoon of collagen powder with meals

Always check with your doctor if you’re dealing with a specific condition.

What if collagen with magnesium gives me Stomach Discomfort?

If you experience digestive sensitivity, try taking the supplement between meals. For example:

3 tablets with breakfast and dinner
Or a teaspoon of collagen with magnesium powder at breakfast, lunch, and dinner

This method may also help soothe your stomach lining while promoting tissue regeneration.

Can you get too much magnesium from supplements?

No, you cannot suffer from hypermagnesemia (excess magnesium in the body) when taking oral magnesium supplements, especially in healthy individuals. Magnesium is absorbed only in its ionic form (Mg⁺⁺), and its absorption through the intestinal wall into the bloodstream depends on the availability of transport carriers.

If these carriers are already in use by other ions like calcium or phosphorus, any extra magnesium you take will not be absorbed. Instead, it stays in the intestine, binds to water molecules, and is eventually eliminated naturally through the feces.

So even if you take a large amount of magnesium, your body will only absorb what it needs—making magnesium supplements safe when used as directed.

Why does magnesium have a laxative effect?

Magnesium acts as a natural laxative because the unabsorbed Mg⁺⁺ ions stay in the intestines and draw in water. This water retention helps soften stools and stimulate bowel movements.

That’s why some people may experience looser or more frequent stools when taking magnesium supplements—especially in high doses or when starting supplementation.

To minimize this effect, we recommend:

Starting with a lower dose and gradually increasing
Taking magnesium with food
Choosing a magnesium form with better bioavailability, like magnesium bisglycinate (for sensitive stomachs)
