✨ Magnesium: The Mighty Mineral Your Body Can’t Live Without ✨
Magnesium is involved in 300+ enzymatic reactions in the body, yet it’s one of the most common nutrient deficiencies we see in functional medicine.
So what does magnesium actually do?
🧠 Supports brain health, mood, and stress resilience
❤️ Regulates heart rhythm and blood pressure
💪 Relaxes muscles and prevents cramps or tension
😴 Promotes deeper, more restorative sleep
🦴 Strengthens bones by balancing calcium and vitamin D
🍭 Improves insulin sensitivity and blood sugar balance
⚠️ Low magnesium levels may show up as:
• Muscle cramps or twitching
• Fatigue or low energy
• Anxiety, irritability, or poor sleep
• Headaches or migraines
• Constipation
🌿 Not all magnesium is created equal.
Different forms serve different purposes:
• Magnesium glycinate – calming, great for sleep & anxiety
• Magnesium citrate – supports digestion & bowel regularity
• Magnesium threonate – crosses the blood-brain barrier for cognitive support
• Magnesium malate – helpful for energy & muscle pain
💡 Functional medicine tip:
Stress, caffeine, alcohol, certain medications, and even intense exercise can deplete magnesium stores, meaning your needs may be higher than you think.
Before supplementing, it’s important to choose the right form, dose, and timing for your body—because more isn’t always better.
