Magtein Magnesium L-Threonate is a dietary supplement for brain health and cognitive performance. It contains Magnesium L Threonate, which is clinically studied to support working memory and attention. A study on health Chinese adults showed Magtein® (including phosphatidylserine and vitamins) to support an increase in magnesium levels in the brain. In this double-blind placebo placebo-controlled study, older and healthy participants showed better improvements in memory and cognition with 2g pf Magtein per day.

While many standard magnesium supplements target muscles or digestion, Metagenics has formulated Magtein® Magnesium L-Threonate particularly to target brain health and cognitive support with continued usage. A recent 2025 6-week clinical trial also found that Magtein®, Magnesium L-Threonate supplementation for 6 weeks can support overall cognition, working memory, cognitive age, and reaction time. It may also improve self-reported sleep improvement. (Source: The effects of magnesium L-threonate (Magtein®) on cognitive performance and sleep quality in adults).
