MAGNESIUM – THE ENERGY MINERAL
Alongside B-complex vitamins, magnesium is one of the most important nutrients needed for energy production. It takes part in over 320 enzymatic reactions in the body. The enzymes it produces control all of our bodily functions – digestion, utilisation of nutrients – fats, proteins, carbohydrates, elimination of toxins, muscle contraction, reproductive activity, to name but a few.
Out of all these enzymatic reactions, the most important one involves the production of energy from ATP (adenosine triphosphate) – the energy storage molecule. Magnesium activates ATP to trigger a release of energy from ATP which is used by the body to ensure its survival. Without magnesium there can be no energy and no life. When we are deficient in magnesium the cell cannot produce enough energy, so we feel tired.
Another very important role of magnesium involves transmission of nerve signals. Magnesium allows calcium to enter a nerve cell to ensure transmission of electrical signals to and from the brain. Magnesium deficiency means that these transmissions slow down, so mental activity and physiological processes slow down too.
Maintaining optimal magnesium levels is one of the most important factors in keeping us alive, healthy, lean and full of energy. Transdermal supplementation (magnesium baths, spraying magnesium oil on the body) is one of the fastest, easiest and side-effect free ways to replenish magnesium levels in the body and boost energy production.
