Magnesium.
How important is this mineral to our health as we age?
The answer: CRUCIAL
Did you know that more than 50% of the world’s population is deficient in Magnesium. And, it is THE #1 protector of your brain function.
The interesting thing about Magnesium is that it is stored in our bodies naturally but is drained by our sugary diets and our constant stress-laden lifestyles. Your body will “keep” a 1% Magnesium level at all times. Now, the problem with that is when your bloodwork is done by your physician, he or she can see a “normal” level in that you have your necessary or baseline 1%. But, you may still be deficient in this mineral.
We can get a healthy amount of Magnesium through eating well. It’s also a good idea to chat with your medical professional and see if a supplements is in order. I’ve used this one for more than a year and feel like it helps me fall asleep and stay asleep at night. I’m just like everyone else and have the “hamster” running in my head at bedtime – makes relaxing and falling asleep more challenging. I also use this product to help.
Do you have trouble relaxing at night? Trouble dozing off? Have YOU tried Magnesium?
