Magnesium glycinate has been increasing in popularity for several years – with good reasons. However, since 2020, I’ve seen this impressive mineral hit superstar status in my practice. Why? Probably because it effectively addresses many of the health concerns that have increased over the last few years, particularly sleep disturbances.
As a vital mineral, Magnesium is needed by the body in large amounts and is involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions. In addition to calming properties, it supports bone health, a robust immune system, and healthy nerve and muscle functions. It also helps to regulate blood sugar levels and is essential in energy production.
Do you exercise often? Magnesium may be particularly beneficial if you’re an athlete. It is necessary to generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which is what your body uses to fuel intense periods of exercise. A Magnesium deficiency can lead to a buildup of lactic acid resulting in muscle soreness, fatigue and slower recovery.
