Do You Have Low Magnesium Levels?

November 17, 2014 by East Wind

By: Liz Kelchak M.S.O.M, L.Ac

Magnesium activates over 350 different bodily processes including digestion, energy production, muscle function, bone formation, creation of new cells, activation of B vitamins, relaxation of the muscles, as well as assisting in the functions of the heart, kidneys, adrenals, brain, and nervous system. If you are not getting enough magnesium any one of these systems or more can be affected. Magnesium deficiencies can be caused by many things: mental stress, caffeine, alcohol, tobacco, sugar, medications, low thyroid, diabetes, pain, diuretics, and overall diet (low volume in our soils or food)

Most of the population is deficient in magnesium. The following is a list of symptoms that could arise from improper amounts of magnesium:

  • Stress
  • Fatigue & Low Energy
  • Inability to Sleep
  • Muscle Tension, Spasms & Cramps
  • Anxiousness and Nervousness
  • Irritability
  • Headaches
  • Weakness
  • PMS and Hormonal Imbalances
  • Weakening Bones
  • Abnormal Heart Rhythm
  • Calcification of Organs
