Can’t say we never told ya..
Magnesium is often called the “miracle mineral” and for good reason. It’s involved in over 300 biochemical reactions in the body, supporting everything from energy production to muscle function, nervous system health, and even sleep quality.
Here’s why magnesium matters:
• Energy & Mood: Magnesium helps convert food into energy and supports neurotransmitters that regulate mood. Low magnesium can contribute to fatigue and irritability.
• Muscle & Nerve Function: Helps muscles relax properly and keeps nerves functioning smoothly, think fewer cramps and less tension.
• Bone Health: Works with calcium and vitamin D to strengthen bones.
• Sleep & Stress: Magnesium promotes relaxation and supports deep, restorative sleep.
Signs you might need more magnesium:
• Trouble sleeping or frequent waking
• Muscle cramps or twitches
• Fatigue or low energy
• Headaches or tension
How to get magnesium:
• Food sources: leafy greens (spinach, kale), nuts & seeds (almonds, pumpkin seeds), avocado, dark chocolate
• Supplements: We recommend ordering magnesium through our clinic to ensure clean, pure ingredients for optimal absorption. Magnesium glycinate or citrate are often best tolerated, but always talk to a functional health provider first.
💡 At MedSomma, we use functional testing to uncover nutrient deficiencies like magnesium so we can create a personalized plan to restore balance and optimize health.
Tip: Even small changes - like adding a magnesium-rich snack or a bedtime supplement can make a big difference in energy, mood, and overall wellness.
