Magnesium Citrate

Description

Magnesium has a positive effect on nervous system function and contributes to energy metabolism. In addition, it contributes to the reduction of fatigue.

Stress

Stress is also a major factor that can lead to magnesium deficiency. The more stress we have the more magnesium we consume. This applies to both physical stress such as intense exercise and mental stress such as work pressure and relationship stress. We live in a stressed society today. Magnesium naturally plays a role in fighting stress because it helps to break down the stress hormone cortisol. So if you experience a lot of stress, your body needs more magnesium to relax. If you have too little magnesium in your body, it leads to more stress, which can create a vicious cycle.

Too much acidifying food

Today, we ingest many foods that have an acidifying effect on the body.

Examples of foods that have an acidifying effect on our bodies are alcohol, sugar, candy, cookies, cakes, fast food, white flour products, fat, dairy products and soft drinks.

When the body becomes too acidic, it uses minerals such as magnesium that have a deacidifying effect to rebalance PH levels.

Fruit and vegetables

Fruits and vegetables have a deacidifying effect due to the amount of minerals they contain, however, less magnesium-containing than in the past.

So this means:

The more acidifying foods we ingest the more magnesium we need. This can cause a magnesium deficiency. Because fruits and vegetables today contain less magnesium, there is a chance that you may even develop a magnesium deficiency despite eating enough fruits and vegetables.

Foods normally high in magnesium are vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds, raw cocoa and grains. However, it is difficult to get enough magnesium in the modern diet. Supplementing the daily diet with a food supplement is a solution.
