Could a deficiency in a magnesium be to blame for some of your chronic health problems, lack of sleep or anxiety? In this week’s UltraWellness blog, Mark Hyman, M.D. reveals why this “secret antidote to stress” […]
View DetailsWithin every cell in the body, a proper balance of mineral content must be maintained. Magnesium’s role in the healthy balance (“homeostasis”) of important minerals such as calcium, sodium and potassium affects the conduction of nerve impulses, muscle contraction and heart rhythms. The body allows mineral ions to flow into and out of the cell from the […]
View DetailsStudies have shown that DNA synthesis is slowed by insufficient magnesium. (1), (3) DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the body’s genetic code, used in the building of proteins and the reproduction of cells. The cells in our body are constantly being replaced by new cells. Different types of cells turnover at different rates, with the […]
View DetailsMagnesium is a required ingredient of the energy-production process that occurs inside the tiny structures within cells. The molecule ATP, or adenosine tri-phosphate, is the fundamental unit of energy used in human cells. Many of the functions carried out by cells require ATP to provide the energy for the action. These include: Muscle fiber contraction […]
View DetailsMagnesium is crucial to more than 300 enzyme-driven biochemical reactions occurring in the body on a near constant basis. All nutrients used by the human body function as either: Sources of energy Building blocks for body structures Elements needed to regulate and control the body’s many functions Like most vitamins, magnesium’s role is primarily regulatory. […]
View DetailsUnderstanding Ionic Magnesium and the Body’s Chemistry Magnesium an abundant element inside human cells and the fourth most abundant positively charged ion mineral in the human body. (1), (2) Within the body’s cells, it serves literally hundreds of functions. In nature, magnesium can be found in many different forms, bonded with other atoms, such as: […]
View DetailsMagnesium is an abundant mineral inside human cells, and the fourth most abundant positively charged ion mineral in the human body. Within the body’s cells, it serves literally hundreds of functions. Without magnesium we could not produce energy, our muscles would be in a permanent state of contraction, and we could not adjust the levels […]
