Magnesium is a fascinating mineral that is involved in nearly 300 biochemical reactions within the body with wide and varied benefits ranging from energy production though to brain function. With such wide and varied usages by the body, it may not surprise you to learn that magnesium deficiency is very widespread in the adult population.
The main reasons for a magnesium deficiency are two-fold; the demands for this mineral are often not met by our intake of green leafy vegetables and of course as we age, our body becomes less efficient at absorbing magnesium due to a lack of digestive enzymes whose production declines rapidly.
Some of the common signs indicating a deficiency include low energy levels, weakness, fatigue, loss of appetite, frequent headaches and nausea.
Compounds such as magnesium citrate work by pulling water into the intestines. This water combines with the dry stool, making it easier to pass.
Magnesium is important for:
- Optimal nerve function
- Most enzyme processes require magnesium
- Essential for bone health, half of one’s total magnesium is found in bone tissue
- Vital for protein synthesis required for the repair processes within the body
- Crucial for energy production; magnesium alongside CoQ10 work to manufacture the energising molecule ATP.
- Regulates cortisol within the brain helping to alleviate some of the symptoms of stress.
- May help improve memory and brain function
Magnesium citrate is one of the most common forms of magnesium used in tablets and capsules. It is derived by bonding magnesium to citric acid. As a citrate, it has an acidic base which means primarily it has a cleansing effect on the gut as is often recommended in detoxification regimens. Some of it will pass into the bloodstream and ongoing usage may gradually restore low magnesium levels.
