Maximum Strength Magnesium 500 mg. - 200 Tablet(s) Nature's Bounty

Staggering Magnesium Deficiencies
As you age, your body becomes less efficient at absorbing essential vitamins and minerals, even if you pride yourself on a healthy diet, rich in organic vegetables. Magnesium is one of those minerals, and experts believe that as many as 80% of Americans don’t get enough of it. Because very little of this mineral resides in your blood, there isn’t an accurate blood test that puts it high on your doctor’s list of concerns.

Primary Benefits
Magnesium is involved in more than 600 reactions in your body, some of the primary ones including help in converting the food you eat into energy; creating new proteins from amino acids; helping create and repair DNA and RNA; playing a role in contraction and relaxation of your muscles; and helping regulate your neurotransmitters, which send messages throughout your brain and nervous system.

More Benefits
Proper Magnesium intake also has been shown to help improve exercise performance, during which you may need 10%-20% more magnesium than when you’re at rest, so supplementing with Nature’s Bounty Maximum Strength Magnesium can help you perform at your best. In fact, studies have shown that supplementing dietary Magnesium intake can boost exercise performance in athletes, the elderly, and people with chronic diseases. Other benefits shown through research include Magnesium’s ability to help you fight depression; improve blood-sugar levels if you have type 2 diabetes; help lower your blood pressure; help you avoid chronic inflammation, which is one of the drivers of disease, obesity and aging; help improve PMS symptoms; and possibly help prevent migraine headaches.

Don’t Run Low
You don’t want to run low on Magnesium. Your bones represent half of your total body magnesium, which is especially valuable for supporting your brain health. Foods like seaweed, basic, flaxseed, cumin seed, parsley, flaxseed, leeks, kale and almond butter are good sources of magnesium in your diet, but still is not likely to give you enough for optimal health. Time, medication and practicality are among the factors that could lead to Magnesium deficiency, meaning you might need to consider a high-quality supplement, like this Nature’s Bounty Magnesium to keep more than 600 bodily reactions operating properly.
