WHY IS MAGNESIUM IMPORTANT?

Why is magnesium important?

The magnesium element works as a co-factor in our mitochondria, which is the energy factory of our cell, so our cells can not function well in magnesium deficiency.


What causes magnesium deficiency?


Since there is not enough magnesium left in our soils at modern times
Due to absorption problems in those who use different drugs (stomach protector, diuretic, etc.)
Coffee and alcohol consumption, when absorption is impaired due to alcohol intake

Why is magnesium important?


       Just as we need the energy source we call ATP for the best contraction of the heart muscle, we need magnesium for the production of ATP. Magnesium is essential to produce ATP, the source of our cellular energy, not only in heart muscle cells, but also in other cells!

       In those with diabetes; balancing blood sugar, in those at risk of diabetes; to prevent insulin resistance, reduce the risk of diabetes.
       To prevent thyroid gland diseases; to maintain thyroid gland functions without interruption.
       For the production of sex hormones (testosterone and estrogen).
       For our immune system to work well.
       To protect our brain, to ensure the regular secretion of brain hormones, to regulate regular sleep, headaches such as migraine, to regulate our mood, to calm the nervous system.

       Magnesium is also needed to prevent ailments such as fibromyalgia, restless legs syndrome, and muscle cramps.

       % 80 of the magnesium is inside the cell, so the magnesium level examined in the blood test does not give your real magnesium level.

       Magnesium deficiency is mostly determined by the patient's complaints and diseases.
