Did you know that magnesium deficiency leads to abnormal heart rhythms, personality changes, seizures, muscle cramps, numbness, and an increased risk or diabetes? ^[1] As scary as this sounds, a large number of Americans do not meet their required daily intake of this macronutrient. ^[2]

With this in mind, eating magnesium-rich foods such as dairy products, whole grains, leafy green vegetables, seeds, nuts, and legumes should be a dietary priority. Here’s what you stand to gain:

1. Relieves Pain: Magnesium deficiency is linked to a higher risk of migraines. ^[3] One study showed that consuming 1 gram of the macronutrient was effective against an acute migraine attack. ^[4]

2. Helps You Sleep: Magnesium helps relax your nerves and muscles, preparing your body for sleep. ^[5]

3. Lowers the Risk of Diabetes: Magnesium inhibits C-reactive protein, which is associated with an increased risk of diabetes. ^[6]

4. Reduces Tinnitus: A study in the International Tinnitus Journal concluded that “magnesium may have a beneficial effect on the perception of tinnitus-related handicap.” ^[7]

5. Improves moods: The mineral helps with nerve function, influences your mood, and reduces the risk of depression. ^[8][9]

6. Relieves Stress: Reduce your stress hormone levels by supplementing your diet with magnesium. ^[10]

7. Healthy Bones and Teeth: With 60% of your magnesium content residing in your bones, it’s logical to increase your intake to improve teeth and bone health. ^[11]

8. Proper Heart Function: Dietary magnesium reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease. ^[12]

9. Alleviates PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome): Studies show that a healthy intake of magnesium improves PMS symptoms such as fluid retention and mood changes. ^[13][14]

10. Reduces Muscle Tension: Supplementing your diet with magnesium helps dispose of lactate and move blood sugar into the muscle, releasing tension. ^[15]

The #1 Muscle That Eliminates Joint And Back Pain, Anxiety And Looking Fat

By Mike Westerdal CPT

Can you guess which muscle in your body is the #1 muscle that eliminates joint and back pain, anxiety and looking fat?

This is especially important if you spend a significant amount of time sitting every day (I do, and this really affects me in a big way!)

Working this "hidden survival muscle" that most people are simply not training because no-one ever taught them how will boost your body shape, energy levels, immune system, sexual function, strength and athletic performance when unlocked.

If this "hidden" most powerful primal muscle is healthy, we are healthy.
