Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1.

Currently taking any long-term prescription medication (excluding contraceptive pill) (e.g., coumadin [warfarin], heparin, dalteparin, enoxaparin or other anticoagulation therapy including low dose aspirin) 5. Significant change in diet in the past 1 month (e.g., removal of a food group or calorie restriction) 6. Active smokers, nicotine use or drug (prescription or illegal substances) abuse 7. Chronic past and/or current alcohol use (>21 alcoholic drinks week) 8. Pregnant or lactating women 9. Allergic to any of the ingredients in either formulation 10.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Group 1 (Magnesium): plasma uptake of Magnesium over 24 hours (AUC) measured using colourimetric assay via a clinical chemistry analyser from baseline to 24 hours 2. Group 2 (Vitamin B6): plasma uptake of Vitamin B6 over 6 hours (AUC) measured using LC-MS-MS from baseline to 24hours | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Change from baseline to the end of the study period (24 hours) in: 1. Tmax: This is calculated from the plasma values analysed in the primary outcome from baseline to 24hours. 2. Cmax This is calculated from the plasma values analysed in the primary outcome from baseline to 24hours. 3. Participant demographics (age, gender) will be collected at screening 4. Individual absorption data for each participant. This will be measured as per the measurements in the primary outcomes from baseline to 24hours. 5. Evaluate tolerability, including gastrointestinal tract tolerance. This will be measured using a Gastrointestinal Tolerance Questionnaire and reported Adverse Events from Baseline to 24 hours. 6. Non-inferiority/equivalence comparison of the formulations. This is a comparison of AUC for each group as calculated from the primary outcome measures from baseline to 24hours. 7. Safety via AE monitoring from baseline to 24 hours. | — |
