Magnesium is found throughout your body. In fact, every cell in your body contains this mineral and needs it to function.
About 60% of the magnesium in your body occurs in bone, while the rest is in muscles, soft tissues, and fluids, including blood.
One of its main roles is to act as a cofactor — a helper molecule — in the biochemical reactions continuously performed by enzymes. It’s involved in more than 600 reactions in your body, including:
• Energy creation: converting food into energy
• Protein formation: creating new proteins from Amino Acid
• Gene maintenance: helping create and repair DNA and RNA
• Muscle movements: aiding in muscle contraction and relaxation
• Nervous system regulation: regulating neurotransmitters, which send messages throughout your brain and nervous system.
Nonetheless, studies show that approximately 50% of adults get less than the recommended daily amount of magnesium.
• Magnesium supports hundreds of chemical reactions in your body. However, many people get less than they need.
• Magnesium deficiency may be linked to depression. As such, supplementing may help reduce symptoms of depression.
• Magnesium supplements may improve blood sugar levels, insulin sensitivity, and other risk factors for type 2 diabetes.
• Magnesium may help lower blood pressure levels and reduce several risk factors for heart disease. Still, more research is needed.
• Magnesium has been shown to help fight inflammation by reducing markers such as C-reactive protein (CRP), a marker of inflammation, in people with chronic inflammation.
• People with migraine may have low magnesium levels. Some studies show that supplementing with this mineral may provide relief from migraine attacks.
• Some studies suggest that magnesium supplements help improve Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) symptoms
• Magnesium is important for bone health. Some studies tie a higher intake to a lower risk of osteoporosis, fractures, and bone loss.
Magnesium is essential for many aspects of health. The recommended daily intake is 400–420 mg per day for men and 310–320 mg per day for women.
