The Miracle of Magnesium - Bargain Chemist

Did you know Magnesium is vital for every cell in your body, and has many different uses in our body such as relaxation, muscle tension relief, and energy? Read on for how Magnesium benefits us in each of these ways.

JOINTS & MUSCLES

Taking magnesium helps to maintain healthy joint and muscle function, as it is closely involved in efficient muscle function. Magnesium might also assist during performance by reducing the recovery period from strenuous exercise.

Magnesium plays a role in regulating muscle contractions because it competes with calcium in the body to help relax your muscles, if your body does not have enough Magnesium to compete with, your muscles may contract too much and this may cause cramps. It needs to be well balanced in order to make sure your muscles work properly.

Topical magnesium is a convenient form of magnesium - absorbed by the skin and is designed for convenient, optimal absorption of magnesium topically. Topical magnesium has the added benefit of being applied directly onto sore joints or muscles. It also bypasses the gastrointestinal tract which removes irritation which can occur from taking an oral Magnesium supplement.

ENERGY

Without Magnesium we could not produce energy. It plays an important role in energy production, as it is needed to provide energy for action across all cells in our body. A magnesium deficiency limits energy production, leading to fatigue, lethargy, reduced muscle strength, muscle twitches and cramps. Magnesium deficiency is far more frequently seen in active people because it is lost through excessive sweating, increasing the body’s demand for magnesium. If you are active you will already be utilising your body’s stores of magnesium from foods, so supplementation is beneficial to restore optimal levels.

RELAXED BODY & MIND

Magnesium supports a healthy nervous system and aids in restful sleep by helping to control your body’s stress-response system, and hormones that elevate or diminish stress. Not having enough Magnesium in your body can lead to sleep disturbances, trouble getting to sleep and trouble staying asleep. Taking a supplement can aid in a deep restful sleep, and help to relax muscles and ease nervous tension because it plays an important role in your nervous system, helping to activate mechanisms that quiet and calm you. It may also help relieve anxiety, which can interfere with sleep.

Finding the right supplement for you

A topical Magnesium solution such as BetterYou Magnesium Oil Spray is ideal for those who have a sensitive stomach that can get upset easily. Transdermal magnesium provides an effective way to take Magnesium as a supplement. Applied directly onto the skin, magnesium is quickly absorbed into the highly porous epidermis, through to the blood vessels and muscles beneath, completely bypassing the digestive system where many nutrients are lost.

An oral Magnesium Supplement such as Go Healthy Magnesium is another great option as it is a convenient 1-A-Day dose meaning you don’t have to add multiple tablets to your daily routine and risk forgetting to take a dose. It is a high strength formula which contains 500mg of elemental Magnesium per capsule. This Magnesium contains no Magnesium oxide, giving it superior absorption. We offer many brands of Magnesium tablets to suit your requirements.
