Improves Nervous System Regulation
Magnesium is a mineral found all over the body but is most concentrated in the bones and red blood cells. This nutrient plays a role in more than 300 biochemical reactions, including calcium and potassium levels. In addition, magnesium helps regulate nerve tissues throughout the body, which makes it essential for regulating the nervous system.
A person with diabetes or cardiovascular disease may have an increased risk of magnesium deficiency because these conditions can cause higher levels of insulin or glucose in the blood (which means more magnesium will be used to help correct this).
