Magnesium description
Magnesium, an essential element for the proper functioning of the body, but the body does not produce it naturally, therefore it is imperative to have a regular supply of magnesium and to draw it either from the diet or from a dietary supplement. The main sources of magnesium found in food can be of plant and animal origin, and mineral water, wheat germ, tarragon, chocolate, almonds, bean sprouts, peanuts, nuts, oatmeal, hazelnuts and brown rice, pulses and dried fruits (lentils, raisins, etc.), brewer's yeast. The mineral waters are hepar and badoit, contrex and évian, cheeses such as Roquefort and Holland, Gruyère and Cantal as well as Parmesan, but also halibut and prawns, sole and oysters and anchovies.
Magnesium the synergy
Magnesium was isolated by an English chemist between 1808 and 1810, but it was not until 1926 that a French researcher demonstrated the importance of magnesium for the body. Magnesium works in perfect synergy with other essential elements of the body, it works in perfect correlation with phosphorus and calcium for a better intercellular mineral balance, magnesium completes the action of copper, it combines with vitamin B5 and vitamin B6, while promoting the action of vitamin B1, vitamin C and vitamin D.
Magnesium deficiency
It is estimated that more than half of the population in France, suffer from a magnesium deficiency either by too low an intake, or by a loss of magnesium, following an excess of alcohol, coffee or tea, certain diseases such as diabetes, slimming diets, stress, excessive exercise, the contraceptive pill and aging.
This then leads to a state of deficiency, the symptoms of which are anxiety, heart disease, hypercholesterolemia, cardiac arrhythmia, but also colitis and constipation, the most visible are muscle cramps, attacks of tetany, migraines, hypertension and many more. But beware too much magnesium intake is also problematic for the body, it results in hypotension, bradycardia, nausea and vomiting, greater muscle fatigue, confusional disorders or even comas or cardiac arrest. The recommended intake of magnesium is between 360 and 420 mg per day, it depends on many factors that associate the age, weight and state of health of the person, and their lifestyle (sedentary or very active ).

Magnesium is useful for the formation of bones and teeth, it helps to bind calcium to the bones, and acts on growth. It participates in the transmission of nerve flow while avoiding memory loss. Magnesium regulates the heart rate and muscle contractions of the heart. It has a relaxing and sedating effect on states of stress, anxiety and hyperactivity.
