5 signs you’re suffering from Magnesium deficiency

Your body needs this “Master Mineral” for more than 300 vital processes!

You’ve heard of magnesium before, but what does it mean for your optimal health? How is it possible that one mineral can support hundreds of critical functions in your body?

Magnesium chloride has long been used in medical settings to save lives. In an emergency, magnesium chloride can be injected into a patient to increase heart attack and stroke survival. Some physicians go so far as to say that magnesium is the first mineral defense you should keep on hand in your medicine cabinet. It’s that important.

WHAT CAN MAGNESIUM DO FOR YOU?

5 signs of magnesium deficiencyIf you’re suffering from chronic health issues without a known cause, magnesium could be the missing link.

Magnesium is responsible for keeping your body running smoothly in hundreds of different ways. Dr. Andrea Rosanoff, Ph.D., Director of Research & Science Information Outreach for the Center for Magnesium Education & Research, underscores the importance of magnesium in the body, “Once magnesium falls down below a certain level, just about everything starts to go.”

Dr. Rosanoff points out that the body may need even more mineral support during times of stress. She adds, “The magnesium requirement during stress soars. This includes any kind of stress coming into the body from exercise, mental and emotional issues, high noise, chemicals, or any other source.”

With day-to-day stress being a fact of life, you may need more magnesium than you think.

Magnesium is the fourth most prevalent mineral in the body. It is impossible to maintain health without it. Close to 50 per cent of your body’s total magnesium can be found in the bones. The remaining magnesium is located in organ and tissue cells. Only 1 per cent of your body’s magnesium can be found in the bloodstream, which the body constantly regulates to maintain magnesium balance.

Your heart needs magnesium to keep beating. Your muscles and nerves need magnesium to function at normal levels. Your immune system needs magnesium to ward off sickness. Your bones need magnesium to maintain their strength. Your body needs magnesium to manage blood sugar and regulate blood pressure. Without enough magnesium, your risk for diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease greatly increases.

Magnesium can benefit a number of health conditions, including:

  • Acne
  • ADD
  • Anxiety/depression
  • Asthma
  • Autism
  • Blood pressure
  • Diabetes
  • Eczema
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Headaches
  • Heart disease
  • Insomnia
  • Muscle cramps/spasms
  • Osteoporosis
  • Psoriasis
  • Restless leg syndrome

Since magnesium is an essential component in the construction of cell membranes, Dr. Rosanoff considers magnesium vital to heart health. The heart is composed of countless cells, and these cells need magnesium to maintain heart muscle strength. Without it, cell structure, energy production, and heart function are affected.

5 WARNING SIGNS OF MAGNESIUM DEFICIENCY

How do you know if your health has been compromised by magnesium deficiency? These are five warning signs you don’t want to overlook:

1. Cravings. One of your body’s first responses to magnesium deficiency is in the form of cravings. If you’re not getting enough magnesium, you may feel chronically exhausted and crave salty, carbohydrate-rich foods.

2. Increased anxiety. The body needs extra magnesium to respond to stress. Magnesium has been praised for its ability to offer anxiety and  depression relief; symptoms of deficiency may include anxiety, irritability, panic attacks, depression, apathy, and agoraphobia.

3. Muscle pains. A soak in a warm bath with magnesium flakes can help to detoxify and ease muscular aches and pains. Common magnesium deficiency symptoms may include muscle and leg cramps, muscle soreness and tension, painful muscle spasms and tremors, muscle twitches, and osteoporosis, in some cases.

4. Neurological disturbances. When magnesium levels get too low, it’s common to experience hearing loss, ringing in the ear, migraines, hyperactivity, restlessness, numbness, insomnia, and even convulsions.

5. Poor heart health. The Center for Magnesium Education & Research confirms that magnesium’s effects on the heart can be widespread. Cardiovascular symptoms related to magnesium deficiency may include heart palpitations, chest pain from spasms, irregular heartbeat, high blood pressure, chest tightness, heart valve disease, and cardiac arrest.

MAGNESIUM ISN’T COMPLETE WITHOUT MSM

Popping a magnesium supplement sounds simple enough, but magnesium pills miss the mark. Magnesium is most effectively absorbed topically, when applied as a lotion or spray or soaked through the skin in a bath. Optimal magnesium uptake is only achieved with the support of MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), a natural sulfur compound.

You can call MSM and magnesium the “dynamic duo.” You can’t have one without the other. MSM has been proven to enhance cell permeability. MSM significantly increases the body’s uptake of topical magnesium. Just like magnesium, your body needs MSM to support daily processes, including connective tissue and respiratory function.

MSM is the perfect partner for magnesium as it also supports pain management. MSM can ease inflammation and help to improve joint mobility. MSM and magnesium work in synergy through convenient topical absorption. An MSM and magnesium spray used daily can help to correct an underlying magnesium deficiency to sooth aches and pains, calm inflammation, ease anxiety, and protect heart health.

Medical professionals agree that a magnesium deficiency can shorten your life. Dr. Jerry Aikawa, professor and author of Magnesium: Its Biological Significance, calls magnesium the “most important mineral for man and all living organisms.”2

Today, low magnesium levels may trigger a number of unpleasant symptoms that compromise your quality of life. Your body needs magnesium to support hundreds of enzymatic processes. For the most effective absorption, MSM helps magnesium get the job done.
