Are you often irritable or anxious? Have low energy<\/strong><\/a> throughout the day? Difficulty relaxing at night so you can get to sleep? Problems with cramping during exercise or at bedtime? All these can be symptoms of magnesium deficiency. According to some studies as many as 3 out of 4 people are deficient in magnesium. Magnesium supplements provide a key nutrient in over 300 chemical and enzyme reactions in the body. This includes processes involved in energy production, blood sugar levels, blood pressure regulation. It also includes muscular relaxation, bone health, and many more.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Many Americans don’t include enough foods that are high in magnesium in their diets. This includes such food as seaweeds, brown rice, and dark green leafy vegetables. Cooking and processing depletes magnesium, even from foods that are high in magnesium. <\/span>Alcohol, coffee, sugar, and high protein in the diet can also be responsible for diminished magnesium levels in the body<\/span><\/span>. <\/span>Even before <\/span><\/span>we consider<\/span><\/span> the way these factors deplete magnesium, we need to take into account the way we have depleted magnesium in the soil<\/span><\/span>. <\/span><\/p>\n Magnesium levels in foods are dependent on its presence in the soil. When plants have used up all the magnesium in the soil, unless it’s replaced, there is none for the next crop. <\/span>So even magnesium -rich foods may not be grown under optimal conditions making it harder to get all the magnesium we need from our food<\/span><\/span>. That’s where supplementing with magnesium can help. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n [smartslider3 slider=22]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Magnesium intake is best spread out during the day rather than taking in a large dose at one time. This is because too much magnesium can overwhelm the intestines and cause a laxative effect. Plus you need to replace magnesium throughout the day as it is being used up in metabolic processes<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n But don’t worry, that doesn’t mean having to pop pills all day. Magnesium supplements are also available in convenient, easy to take powder and liquid forms. Magnesium powder dissolves almost immediately in water.\u00a0 Your body doesn’t have to wait for a capsule or tablet to break down.<\/p>\n You can also add it to a glass or bottle of water and sip on it over several hours. That way the magnesium <\/span><\/span>is absorbed<\/span><\/span> into your body instead of running through your intestines<\/span><\/span>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>And remember, don’t get so excited about taking magnesium that you forget to slowly build up your dose over time.<\/p>\n Taking too much magnesium <\/span>initially<\/span><\/span> might create a laxative effect. This can give you the mistaken impression that you are having a bad reaction to magnesium. To prevent this, it’s important to start with a lower dose 100 to 200 mg. Then you can build up to 400 mg once or twice a day until your bowel movements are <\/span>comfortably<\/span><\/span> loose but not too watery.<\/span><\/p>\n Come by Peach Vitamins in Atlanta<\/strong><\/a> today and check out our variety of magnesium supplements or give us a call at 404-266-9115<\/strong><\/a> if you have any further questions or want to order by mail and our knowledgeable staff of nutritional supplement professionals will be happy to assist you.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Why Magnesium Supplements?
