Naka Herbs Magnesium Citrate with Hawthorn Berry 250mg, Supports Muscle Function and Cardiovascular Health, 90-200 Capsules

Naka Herbs Magnesium Citrate with Hawthorn Berry 250mg Details

Naka Herbs Magnesium Citrate with Hawthorn Berry 250mg is a 250 mg magnesium capsule — magnesium from magnesium citrate and magnesium oxide — formulated with hawthorn berry, the herb Naka describes as one of the most valuable cardiovascular tonics available because it is rich in flavonoids. It is the one magnesium in Naka's range built around a herb rather than a second mineral or an amino acid carrier.

Naka's reasoning is that magnesium helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps the heart rhythm steady and bones strong, and is involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis — and that people taking high amounts of calcium daily may develop a magnesium deficiency, which is why Naka suggests a calcium-to-magnesium ratio of 2:1. The label's recommended uses are a mineral supplement that helps in tissue formation and helps the body metabolize carbohydrates, fats and proteins. Made in Canada, in 90 or 200 capsules.

Quick Facts

Who Magnesium Citrate with Hawthorn Is For

• People who already want hawthorn berry in their routine and would rather get it alongside their magnesium than buy a second bottle
• Anyone on a high daily calcium intake, where Naka's 2:1 calcium-to-magnesium argument is the reason to add magnesium at all
• Buyers who want a substantial 250 mg of magnesium per capsule rather than a 100–150 mg starter dose
• Anyone who prefers a short ingredient list — magnesium, hawthorn berry, rice starch and magnesium stearate

Who this product is NOT for: If you want a measured, quantified dose of hawthorn, this is not it — hawthorn berry appears among the non-medicinal ingredients with no stated amount, so buy a dedicated Hawthorne Berry supplement and take magnesium separately. If a sensitive gut is your concern, citrate and oxide at 500 mg of magnesium a day is the wrong starting point — Naka Herbs Magnesium Bisglycinate 200mg is the gentlest form Naka makes. And if you want plain citrate at a dose you can scale, Naka Magnesium Citrate 150mg runs one to three capsules.

Vitamart's Take

We stock this because it has a loyal repeat audience that wants magnesium and hawthorn in one capsule, and because 250 mg per capsule is a useful dose for anyone who has decided they need a meaningful amount of the mineral. Naka has sold the formula in Canada for years and the ingredient list has stayed short and legible, which we value over a long marketing-led panel.

Two honest points. First, hawthorn berry is a non-medicinal ingredient with no quantity given, so read the herb as a supporting part of the formula rather than a measured herbal dose — if hawthorn is the main thing you want, a standalone product tells you exactly what you are getting. Second, the magnesium comes partly from magnesium oxide, dense in elemental magnesium but poorly absorbed, and at two capsules you are taking 500 mg a day. Naka's label notes a bowel-loosening effect as a known reaction, which is normal citrate and oxide behaviour at that total. If that is unwelcome rather than useful, buy bisglycinate.

How Magnesium Citrate with Hawthorn Compares

Within Naka's magnesium range this is the herbal-combination option, so the comparison is less about absorption chemistry than about what else is in the capsule.

• Versus plain Naka citrate: Naka Magnesium Citrate 150mg is pure citrate at 150 mg elemental with a flexible one-to-three capsule label. This one fixes the dose at two capsules and adds the herb.
• Versus malate: Naka Platinum Magnesium Malate 250mg matches 250 mg per capsule at one capsule per serving, pairing the mineral with 500 mg of malic acid instead of a herb.
• Versus bisglycinate: Naka Platinum Magnesium Bisglycinate 200mg is the form to choose when gut tolerance outranks milligrams per capsule.

Why Magnesium and Hawthorn Berry Together?

Hawthorn is a hedgerow shrub whose berries have been used in European herbal medicine for centuries, traditionally as a cardiovascular tonic. Naka's reason for including it is its flavonoid content — flavonoids are the plant pigments that give hawthorn berries their deep red colour, and Naka notes that hawthorn's flavonoids are shown to dilate peripheral and coronary blood vessels. That vessel-widening action is the traditional basis for hawthorn's reputation as a circulatory herb.

Magnesium is paired with it because the mineral has its own role in the same territory: it helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, including the smooth muscle in blood vessel walls, and Naka notes it helps keep the heart rhythm steady. Naka's second argument is intake balance — high daily calcium can leave you short of magnesium, hence the 2:1 ratio. The practical reading is a mineral at a serious dose with a traditional circulatory herb alongside it, not a herbal extract with a token mineral.

How To Use

Adults: take two (2) capsules daily.
