Swiss-made magnesium: quality, traceability, effectiveness

Why choosing Swiss magnesium makes all the difference

Today, the market for food supplements is immense... but not all products are created equal. Between low-cost imported products, opaque compositions, and exaggerated claims, it's hard to know what to choose.

At FooDly, we made a clear choice: to manufacture our magnesium in Switzerland. And it's not just a matter of patriotism; it's a matter of quality, traceability, and effectiveness.


🇨🇭 1. Made in Switzerland = a guarantee of strict quality

In Switzerland, food supplements are subject to rigorous standards, notably those of the Food Additives Ordinance (OCAl) of the FOPH【OFSP, admin.ch】.

This guarantees:

- the safety of ingredients,

certified manufacturing processes (ISO, GMP),

authorized and controlled formulation.

At FooDly, our magnesium is produced in Marin-Epagnier (NE) by a Swiss company certified ISO 22000 and GMP, two internationally recognized labels for production quality.


🔍 2. Total traceability, from raw material to bottle

Traceability is a requirement in Switzerland. Every ingredient is documented, every batch is controlled. Result: you know exactly what you're consuming.

Our formula:

- No raw materials of animal origin

- No GMOs, no allergens, no irradiation

- A clear labeling, without vague marketing terms

- And manufacturing compliant with Swiss and European standards

💡 We even add a legal disclaimer to the label:

"Magnesium preparations may have laxative effects."
This is a requirement in Switzerland for any formula containing more than 250 mg of magnesium.


⚡ 3. Optimized efficacy… thanks to the right formulation

Swiss magnesium is good. But good Swiss magnesium is better.

Our formula contains:

- Magnesium citrate → very well absorbed

- Magnesium malate → promotes cellular energy

- Magnesium glycerophosphate → very well tolerated by the digestive system

- Vitamin B6, Vitamin C and Taurine → to enhance natural effectiveness

📚 The EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) confirms the effectiveness of these forms for:

- reducing fatigue,

- supporting the nervous system,

- maintaining normal muscle function
