Bariatric patients often miss protein targets, risking muscle loss
Up to 64% of bariatric patients fail to meet the recommended 60‑100 g of protein daily, which can lead to a loss of as much as 25% of pre‑operative lean mass within the first year. This shortfall contributes to fatigue, poor wound healing and heightened sarcopenia risk.
Magtein, a patented magnesium L‑threonate, announced a partnership with Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Pump Club at Natural Products Expo West 2026 to promote brain‑health content through newsletters and podcasts. The collaboration seeks to translate robust clinical research—including recent findings on cognition, sleep, mood, heart‑rate variability, and coordination—into consumer‑friendly messaging. Magtein aims to reach a longevity‑focused audience spanning millennials to older adults, positioning the ingredient beyond traditional sleep or muscle‑relaxation narratives. The alliance underscores a broader industry move toward science‑backed wellness education.
