Magnesium Tablets & Supplements

Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It helps to maintain normal nerve and muscle function, support a healthy immune system, keep the heartbeat regular, and helps maintain bone strength. It also helps regulate blood glucose levels and aid in the production of energy and protein. There is ongoing research into the role of Magnesium in preventing and managing disorders such as high blood pressure, heart disease and diabetes. Many people have experienced the benefits of taking Magnesium for Sleep.

Magnesium deficiency is one of the leading nutrient deficiencies in adults with an estimated 80% being deficient in this vital mineral. Although we only need small amounts of Magnesium relative to other nutrients, we must regularly replenish our stores either from foods or Magnesium Supplements in order to prevent deficiency symptoms.

To prevent Magnesium deficiency, make sure that you’re eating plenty of green leafy vegetables, organic nuts & seeds, avocados, bananas, broccoli, beans, Brussel sprouts and cacao.

Best Magnesium Supplements:

The body loses stores of Magnesium every day from normal functions, such as muscle movement, heartbeat and hormone production. Magnesium can be easily supplemented in the form of Magnesium tablets and capsules, in a Magnesium powder or even in the form of a topical Magnesium oil.

The best Magnesium Supplements will often have a few different combined forms of Magnesium present. When choosing a Magnesium supplement look for either Magnesium Glycinate, amino acid Chelated Magnesium, Magnesium Citrate, Magnesium Orotate or Magnesium Aspartate. These forms of Magnesium are well absorbed and tolerated by the body.
