Magnesium is also a natural relaxant that can calm the central nervous system. The addition of L-tryptophan makes this a great formula to support a good night's sleep.

The Need for Magnesium Supplements

A magnesium deficiency can cause significant symptoms. Some of the most prominent include:

• hypertension and cardiovascular disease
• kidney and liver damage
• peroxynitrite damage that can lead to migraine headaches, multiple sclerosis, glaucoma or Alzheimer’s disease
• nutrient deficiencies, including vitamin K, vitamin B1, calcium and potassium
• restless leg syndrome
• worsened PMS symptoms
• behavioural disorders and mood swings
• insomnia and trouble sleeping
• osteoporosis
• recurrent bacterial or fungal infections due to low levels of nitric oxide or a depressed immune system
• tooth cavities
• muscle weakness and cramps
• impotence
• eclampsia and preeclampsia

Why is magnesium deficiency so common? A few factors are at play: soil depletion that lowers the amount of magnesium present in crops; digestive disorders that lead to malabsorption of magnesium and other minerals in the gut; high rates of prescription medication and antibiotic use that damages the digestive tract to the point that magnesium cannot be absorbed and properly utilized from foods.

Recommended Daily Allowance for Magnesium

These are the current RDA for magnesium depending on your age and gender — intakes vary on different individual factors — according to the NIH:

• Infants–6 months: 30 milligrams
• 7–12 months: 75 milligrams
• 1–3 years: 80 milligrams
• 4–8 years: 130 milligrams
• 9–13 years: 240 milligrams
• 14–18 years: 410 milligrams for men; 360 milligrams for women
• 19–30 years: 400 milligrams for men; 310 milligrams for women
• Adults 31 years and older: 420 milligrams for men; 320 milligrams for women
• Pregnant women: 350–360 milligrams
• Women who are breastfeeding: 310–320 milligrams

Magnesium is connected to other nutrients within the body, including calcium, vitamin K and vitamin D. Experts believe that one of the reasons magnesium supplements are so beneficial is because they help counterbalance high levels of calcium that can accumulate in the body when people take calcium supplements regularly. Similarly, taking vitamin D in high levels, or being deficient in vitamin K2, can lower magnesium stores in the body and contribute to a deficiency.
