Magnesium

Magnesium is an essential mineral and a cofactor for a significant number of enzymes. It is involved in muscle relaxation, blood clotting, and the body's main energy molecule (ATP). Magnesium is primarily stored in the bones (60%), muscles (20%), and soft tissues (20%). Less than 1% is found in the blood. The importance of this nutrient in the body has been studied, showing that its deficiency is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis, and metabolic disorders, including hypertension and type 2 diabetes.

It is also known by the following name:

Magnesium

 

Some of its properties are:

Cholesterol-lowering:
Due to its role in fat metabolism, it helps control blood lipids.

Alkalizing:
It helps counteract the acidification caused by increased uric acid levels.

Energizing:
Because of its involvement in reactions that depend on ATP.

Lipid-lowering:
It helps reduce lipid levels in the body.

Antihypertensive:
It blocks N-type calcium channels in nerve endings, resulting in changes in norepinephrine secretion.

Laxative:
Due to its ability to regulate intestinal functions.

Neuroprotective:
It participates in neurotransmitter and neuromodulator formation, neuron repolarization, and muscle relaxation.

Relaxing:
It maintains energy balance in neurons and affects nerve transmission.

Vasodilatory:
Due to its ability to regulate renin activity and the formation of angiotensin, as well as stimulate the synthesis of nitric oxide and prostacyclin.
