Magnesium: The Mighty Mineral We Overlook

Magnesium might just be the unsung hero of nutrients, quietly working behind the scenes to keep our bodies humming along. Dating back to a 1697 medical paper magnesium was already being touted for tackling everything from depression to kidney stones and heartburn. Fast forward to today, and thousands of research papers later, we’ve learned it’s linked to hundreds of conditions, many of them chronic. It’s pretty wild to think this humble mineral has been in the game for so long, yet it still doesn’t get the spotlight it deserves!  The reason?  Big Pharma can't profit off of something found naturally!  

The importance of magnesium can’t be overstated. It’s involved in over 300 biochemical reactions in the body, from keeping your heart beating steadily to helping your muscles relax after a long day. A deficiency can sneak up on you, potentially contributing to issues like gout or even mood swings, as that old 1697 paper hinted at.

The kicker? It’s a common nutrient you can’t patent, which means it doesn’t rake in the big bucks for pharmaceutical companies. So while doctors might not always recommend it first, grabbing some magnesium-rich foods like nuts, spinach, or dark chocolate could be a delicious way to give your health a boost!
