Magnesium is an abundant mineral present in our bodies, and acts as a cofactor for over 300 enzymatic systems that regulate diverse biochemical reactions in the body, including protein synthesis, muscle and nerve function, blood glucose control, and blood pressure regulation. Magnesium is required for energy production, oxidative phosphorylation, and glycolysis. It contributes to the structural development of bone and is required for the synthesis of DNA, RNA, and the antioxidant glutathione. Insomnia, anxiety, digestion issues, muscle pain, joint pain, and the list goes on and on. The benefits of magnesium are never ending and it is truly one of the most recommended supplements in my practice for everyone.
