Why Do We Need Magnesium?
Why do we need Magnesium?
Magnesium is a very important dietary supplement our bodies need, but it is often overlooked.
It has 4 main functions in our body:
The production of Energy, it helps to convert the food we eat into energy, so we can do the things we love as well as the things we need to do for everyday life.
It helps Muscle and Nerve Function: by regulating muscle contractions and the nerve signalling in our brains. This is why, sometimes you may experience cramps or tremors, because you are low in magnesium.
It also regulates our heartbeat and is very important for heart attack victims.
Bone health also relies on magnesium as this is where around 50% of your magnesium is stored. It also works with vitamin D to keep bones strong.
Blood sugar and blood pressure regulation is helped by Magnesium, which in turn controls insulin and relaxes blood vessels to support healthy blood pressure.
