Why you should never ignore magnesium deficiency symptoms
Magnesium (Mg) is an essential mineral that is essential for our bodies, including immunity, nerve stimulation, and skeletal health. If you are deficient, you may experience mysterious muscle pain and cramps. If you suddenly experience severe muscle pain or muscle cramps, you need to suspect symptoms of magnesium deficiency. Let’s take a look at the checklist of suspected deficiency symptoms of magnesium, an essential mineral that should never be neglected.
If symptoms such as frequent muscle pain and cramps, unexplained migraines, poor digestion, constipation, and insomnia continue, it is likely that the symptoms are due to magnesium deficiency. In particular, if you have numbness in your legs when you wake up, severe muscle pain in the neck, back, or lower back, frequent tremors in the eyelids and under the eyes, and frequent numbness in your hands and feet, these can be considered symptoms of magnesium deficiency.
In severe cases, the excitement may continue due to convulsions, seizures, and abnormal heartbeat, resulting in high blood pressure. Magnesium also plays a role in regulating the insulin hormone in our body, so if it is lacking, it can cause diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and various metabolic syndromes, so it should never be neglected.
The Korean Society of Nutrition’s recommended magnesium intake is 350 mg for adult men and 280 mg for women, but the actual magnesium intake of Koreans is 72.9 mg for men and 53.7 mg for women, which is less than one-fifth of the amount. One of the main causes of magnesium deficiency in Koreans is that rice is their staple food, and most of the magnesium contained in the rice husk is lost during the rice milling process. Another cause may be stress. Stress depletes magnesium at a rapid rate and is the main cause of magnesium deficiency. Additionally, busy modern people consume a lot of processed foods, and almost all of the magnesium is lost during the cooking process.
Let’s learn about the secret to supplementing the essential mineral magnesium. Spinach is considered the best food to supplement magnesium. Spinach is a representative green vegetable that is most often served on Koreans’ dinner tables. It can be consumed in a variety of dishes, including seasoned vegetables, boiled in soybean paste soup, and japchae. Salmon and almonds are also rich in magnesium, so it is more effective when taken together. However, because about 50 to 80% is lost during the cooking process, there is a limit to consuming it with food alone.
In order to consume magnesium effectively, it is better to take it as a single magnesium preparation rather than in the form of a multivitamin. The absorption rate is much higher when taken in powder form rather than in pill form, so the powder type is recommended for those with high magnesium requirements or especially weak digestion.
It is important to supplement magnesium deficiency, but it is also important to prevent its excretion. Excessive consumption of carbonated beverages, which interferes with magnesium absorption, is prohibited, and it is also recommended to limit caffeine, which is the main culprit in excreting large amounts of magnesium.
