There's also some evidence that magnesium threonate can be neuroprotective? Those data come from quality labs, mostly rodent studies, not human studies, but it's kind of interesting.

The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

One of the more interesting aspects to magnesium threonate and bisglycinate is that it seems to have some neuroprotective effects as well. There aren't many studies on it, but the few studies that are there point to the fact that magnesium threonate and magnesium bisglycinate can also support neuron health and neuron longevity, which is just an added bonus, in my opinion.
Perhaps magnesium threonate can be used as a way to support cognitive function and longevity.
There's some data that threonate can be neuroprotective, although those studies are still ongoing.
You know, there's a little bit of human evidence as well that it improves cognition. not not strong but again it's that you know we just don't have a lot of people researching it and we have the animal data the animal data is a little stronger don't have a lot of human data but it seems to signal it might be important it might help with cognition
Magnesium slowed the progression of Alzheimer's, improved cognition & decreased plaques in the brains of mice.
