Magnesium is a mineral studied across a wide range of wellness contexts — and research suggests that reduced levels of magnesium are associated with a wide range of chronic health concerns. Sounds like it might be worth adding this to your line up! This study was a comprehensive review of numerous other studies done on magnesium. It covers multiple different ways in which magnesium interacts with different organs of the body, including bones, kidneys, muscles, brain function, and more. Furthermore, they also explored hormone interaction with magnesium supplementation — an interesting find was that estrogen enhances magnesium reabsorption in the kidney and absorption in the gut. Magnesium is commonly added to electrolyte mixes, as it is such a powerhouse mineral. Magnesium is found in plant foods like legumes, dark green leafy vegetables, nuts, seeds, whole grains, and fortified cereals. It can also be applied to the skin; for some this can trigger a slight tingling — so be sure to start small and test a patch on the wrist before widespread application.
