ARE YOU MAGNESIUM DEFICIENT, OR IS YOUR MAGNESIUM DEFICIENT?
Magnesium is one of seven essential macro-minerals that the body needs in high quantities, yet 80% of adults are not consuming enough magnesium[1]. Magnesium deficiency can lead to hypomagnesemia, which has been associated with several chronic health disorders including diabetes, osteoporosis, insomnia and cardiovascular disease.
While there are several magnesium supplements to choose from at pharmacies, health food stores or supermarkets, there are huge differences between the synthetic and natural forms of magnesium supplements available. The key difference, however, is that the only type of supplement that will provide the same form of magnesium that is deficient in your diet is a wholefood blend.
WHOLEFOOD VS SYNTHETIC
Wholefood magnesium is bio accessible to a significantly greater degree than the magnesium found in synthetic blends. This is because wholefood supplements are packed with natural magnesium and a team of other essential vitamins, minerals, proteins and fatty acids that contribute to 100% solubility in the body. Synthetic alternatives do not have this natural nutrient dense synergy, meaning that they are not as easily absorbed.
