Why we need Magnesium

 Subscribe: Lifestyle Newsletter


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 the bone, while the rest is in muscles, soft tissues, and fluids (including blood).

Studies suggest that approximately 50% of U.S. adults get less than the recommended daily amount of magnesium.

  1. Muscle spasms or cramping
  2. Pain or soreness
  3. Numbness or tingling in the legs or hands
  4. Headaches
  5. Low energy or fatigue
  6. Poor sleep
  7. Decreased focus or brain fog
  8. Anxiety, irritability, depression
  9. Eye twitches
  10. Restless legs or nighttime leg cramps
  11. Constipation or digestive issues
  12. Craving for sweets

HOW else to increase magnesium intake:

Topical magnesium can help calm leg cramps and restless legs.Oral magnesium is great for overall wellness, but topical is more convenient, more quickly absorbed, and is more targeted, especially when applying to muscles.A convenient way for topical magnesium I've found is a spray!Have you tried a magnesium spray?  It's not sticky & smells nice. 

If you are not afraid of the sticky....or maybe that's just me, lol.  You can also get a great lotion infused with magnesium.  Here's a couple I'd recommend.
