The Nutritional Magnesium Report is a service of the Nutritional Magnesium Association and a great resource for information and articles on the subject. As with D3, magnesium supplementation may be necessary for many of us. To quote Dr. Carolyn Dean, M.D., N.D., author of The Magnesium Miracle: "Up to 80% of the US population is suffering from a magnesium deficiency."
From today's issue of the report: Scientists from Italy’s University of Bologna have recently found that magnesium deficiency has a profound effect on the promotion of health and the prevention of disease. Magnesium deficiency has become common, and dietary levels of magnesium from both food and water sources have gradually declined at an alarming rate in the United States.
The National Institutes of Health states, “Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps bones strong. Magnesium also helps regulate blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure, and is known to be involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis. There is an increased interest in the role of magnesium in preventing and managing disorders such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes.”
“Up until this point in time, the role of magnesium in human health has been vastly underestimated, particularly with the exaggerated importance that has been given to its sister mineral, calcium, over the past few decades,” says Dr. Dean. “With this new discovery, magnesium’s crucial role in the treatment and prevention of acute heart attacks, chronic cardiovascular disease, heart arrhythmia's, diabetes, asthma, chronic fatigue syndrome, osteoporosis and many other disorders has been illuminated.”
