Muscle tension and stiffness, stress, worry, poor quality sleep, and much more.

Low Magnesium levels can be caused by several factors, such as low dietary intake or eating or drinking those things that could affect your magnesium levels such as sugar and coffee.  Stress and intensive exercise are other common factors that can deplete your body of magnesium.

Magnesium is one of the seven major minerals that the body needs in relatively large amounts (Calcium, potassium, sodium, chloride, sulfur, and phosphorus being the other 6 minerals). 

Found in green leafy veggies, avocados, tofu, seeds, whole grains, dark chocolate and nuts.   If you are not eating enough magnesium in your daily diet, you can always top up with a suitable Magnesium supplement.

Magnesium is a co-factor in multiple enzyme systems in the body that support a diverse range of biochemical reactions.
