Many of us suffer for months and years from chronic conditions, that no one seems to detect the source of (not even the so-called experts). Only a few lucky ones realize that the true source of these conditions is due primarily to a magnesium deficiency. Many conditions are caused primarily by magnesium deficiency and for many other conditions magnesium deficiency is a major contributing factor.

Magnesium is a very important mineral for the body as it is responsible for more than 300 functions. Some of these functions are:

" energy production

" muscle function

" digestion

" creation of new cells

" bone formation

" relaxation of muscles

" the functioning of your heart, kidneys

" the activation of B vitamins, adrenals, brain and nervous system.

To understand magnesium importance consider that 90-95% of the population is deficient, and many thought that regular magnesium supplements will fix this deficiency. But if the magnesium supplement is not water soluble or available in ionic form it will literally pass through the digestive track with very little benefit to the body. For minerals to be absorbed into the body they must be available in ionic form.

Deficiency of magnesium, to any extent, will interfere with any of the functions that magnesium is responsible for. The solution is to take magnesium in a form where it is completely dissolved in water. In this ionic form the magnesium assimilates into the body fast producing almost instant relief.

Magnesium must always be consumed in an ionic form because this is the form that the body recognizes and utilizes. Many magnesium products on the market are very difficult to assimilate because they are in the wrong form to be effectively absorbed by the body as they pass through the stomach and are eliminated before the nutritional value is utilized.

Symptoms of magnesium deficiency

* FATIGUE & LOW ENERGY

Magnesium has a key role in the energy process within each cell, and our overall energy level. Energy production is inhibited, with inadequate amounts of magnesium, with the eventual outcome being fatigue and weakness. Magnesium is essential to regulating potassium levels and functioning of the adrenal glands which are both important to maintaining high energy levels.

* NERVOUSNESS & INSOMNIA

Deficiency in magnesium can cause insomnia, and wake us up with muscle spasms, cramps, tension and feeling uncomfortable. The proper functioning of the nervous system requires magnesium and without sufficient quantity the nerve cells cannot give or receive messages and tend to become excitable and highly reactive. Noises will seem excessively loud and the person will jump at sudden sound and be generally nervous and on edge. Light can appear to be too bright and the person can become highly sensitive and nervous.

* PMS & OSTEOPOROSIS

Instant relief can be obtained by taking a magnesium drink because PMS is mostly a magnesium deficiency and excess calcium. When it comes to OSTEOPOROSIS, magnesium is crucial in regulating bone density, as it is magnesium which allows calcium to assimilate. Calcium alone is potentially harmful.

* THE HEART CONNECTION

Without sufficient magnesium you would actually die as your heart will stop beating and the doctors will call it "a heart attack". Thus it is critical to have the proper levels of magnesium in the body. Early signs of terminal extinction are unusual changes in heart rates (beats), angina pain, collapsing from exhaustion after heavy physical exercise or sports related activities. With low magnesium the heart muscle develops a spasm or cramp and stops beating because there is insufficient magnesium to relax the heart ready for the next contraction.

HEADACHES, DIABETES, HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE & Misc.

Asthma, headaches, migraines, seizures, depression, fibromyalgia, anxiety, ADD, arthritis and kidney stones get worse when sufficient magnesium is not consumed.

For magnesium to be effective it must always be in the correct proportion with calcium. Excess calcium can deplete magnesium and bring about a magnesium deficiency. What is important is not how much magnesium you consume, but how much is left in the body. Its okay to take excess magnesium as it passes out of the body, however excess calcium stores up and depletes magnesium causing a lot of problems in the process. This situation can be the cause of senility, arthritis, heart disease, calcification of organs and tissues, causing them to degenerate.

Besides calcium,there are other factors that deplete magnesium in the body.

Learn what depletes magnesium , and avoid them as much as possible. These factors dramatically deplete your body's magnesium storage and make it necessary for greater consumption of magnesium:

* coffee

* sugar

* mental stress

* alcohol

* cola type soda

* high sodium diet

* tobacco

* medical drugs of all types

* high perspiration

* low thyroid

* diabetes

* diuretics

* chronic pain

* a high carbohydrate diet

* a high calcium diet (yet too much calcium can be a problem)

Magnesium deficiency symptoms include Muscle Cramps, Anxiety, Spasms, Fatigue, Headaches, Irritability, Sleep-Disorders, low energy and body tension
