BIO Magnesium 100% natural + watercress
Vegetable magnesium from sea lettuce supports normal muscle contractions and helps reduce fatigue
Magnesium is used in the body by more than 300 enzymes to enable many biological processes to continue. For example, magnesium contributes to the energy-yielding metabolism and the normal functioning of the muscles.
The body contains approximately 25 g of magnesium, of which 50-60% is incorporated in the bones, 27% in muscle tissue and less than 1% circulates in the blood. A magnesium deficiency will therefore not easily be noticed through a blood analysis.
Who has a higher need for magnesium?
Active people, athletes, students and the elderly may have an increased need for magnesium. During intensive exercise, the magnesium requirement is easily 10 to 20% higher. You also use a lot of magnesium when you are stressed.
As we get older, our body becomes less successful in extracting magnesium from food. Anyone who often eats refined food (white bread, white rice, white pasta) can easily consume 80% less magnesium than those who choose original natural products (brown bread, brown rice, whole wheat pasta). Also know that excessive use of caffeine accelerates the excretion of magnesium.
