The basics.

Magnesium is a co-factor in over 300 chemical processes in the body, including nerve and muscle functions, regular heart rhythm, proper immunity, and maintenance of strong bones. Magnesium is involved in the regulation of blood pressure and blood sugar, because increased magnesium loss in the urine is associated with hyperglycemia. It helps maintain energy production and protein synthesis, as well.

How much do you need?

In order to maintain proper Magnesium levels, the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for 98% of American adults ranges from 310 mg to 420 mg per day, of which 50% will be stored in the bones and the other 50% inside our various organs, tissues and cells. Approximately 1% of your body’s Magnesium supply is found in the blood, where the body works to maintain homeostasis, or a constant level.

Magnesium Deficiency in the United States

Fifty-seven percent of the U.S. population do not meet the minimum RDA for Magnesium. Certain populations - individuals suffering from alcoholism, chronic diarrhea, or mal-absorptive conditions of the bowel - are at higher risk of Magnesium deficiency. Older adults have a higher risk for Magnesium deficiency than younger adults for a combination of reasons. Since the integrity of the kidneys is lower in the elderly, more Magnesium may be lost in the urine. Certain common medications, more likely to be taken by the elderly but not limited to this population, are involved in Magnesium depletion, as well.
