numerous bodily functions. There are various magnesium-

and there are also supplements that can be taken in addition
to ensure we get the proper amounts of magnesium.

There are a variety of health conditions
that can be improved through taking
magnesium supplements. These in-
clude kidney disease, Crohn’s disease,
parathyroid problems and several di-
gestive conditions. Older adults, peo-

We can get magnesium from many
of the foods we eat, but studies show
that many US adults do not get enough
magnesium. Increasing the volume of
foods high in magnesium can help, as
can taking supplements to ensure the
body gets enough magnesium no mat-
ter what we eat. People who do not get
enough magnesium are more prone to
conditions such as high blood pressure,
inflammation and even major health is-
sues like heart disease.
