1. Mental health
According to experts, people who suffer from severe magnesium deficiency are more likely to experience mental health issues. As sources say, these people can have apathy, which is characterized by a lack of emotion or mental numbness.
If your body doesn’t get the right levels of this mineral, it can trigger depression, stress, and anxiety. It’s believed that taking the right magnesium supplements daily can help manage these symptoms, but researchers need to run additional tests to know more about this.
However, suppose you want to treat your body well and keep stress and anxiety at bay. In that case, you can consume healthy foods that are rich in magnesium, such as spinach, bananas, avocado, dark chocolate, nuts, tofu, cashews, black bananas, almonds, oily fish, brown rice, chia seeds, and chickpeas.

Hello, Sharon,
I’m so glad you found our article helpful! We’ve got more useful content coming your way, so stay tuned. As for your daily magnesium intake, doctors typically recommend around 310-320 milligrams for adult women and 400-420 milligrams for adult men. But keep in mind, these are just general guidelines. Your doctor may suggest a different amount based on your unique needs. Take care of yourself!
yes taking a high bioavailability magnesium nutritional supplement such as magnesium glycinate in one level teaspoon daily mixed in with one’s whey protein smoothie will get the job done.
300-400 mg. daily.
Just started taking one pill days seams to help head aches nice pray takes care of vertigo prayers it does!
I had irregular heartbeat a few years ago. After taking ionic mineral drops which contains 200 mg. of magnesium and other minerals, the irregular heartbeat disappeared completely.
Yes, the ionic magnesium drops have really helped, and I’ve found are a convenient way to take magnesium, since I have trouble swallowing pills. Since I’ve been taking the ionic mineral drops, my leg cramps have subsided.
Thank you. Very informative.
Magnesium has truly improved my health and I am no longer tired and exhausted. My aches and pains are diminishing!
Iam critical about the dosage of Mg to be taken iam 66 Kindly let me know to avoid sudden side effects
I’m a cancer survivor and learned about the benefits of magnesium and yes 2 to 300mg dose is recommended for women
my doctor , has me on magnesium bone and mussle health .500 mg for my migraines .i started taking it going on 3 years now .was feeling some what better. now not sure what happened but .this week i have been sick realy stressed out about money problems and daughters teeth ..having some vertigo and seeing big circles with zig zags in it .also feeling a upset stomach…..
Magnesium is very difficult to be absorbed by the digestive system. I suffer from low Magnesium and take 500 mg glycinate 2 times a day, it hasn’t raised my Magnesium level at all. I would start at 500mg once a day. I also had a severe episode of PVC’s over a million in one month, that is when my doctor actually checked my Magnesium level. You don’t want this to happen to you. Originally I was 1.6 (0.1 below normal) after a year taking 500mg 2 times a day, I am only 1.7.
I wouldn’t worry about taking too much.
Taking magnesium glcinate has been a game changer for me. It does help with sleep and regulates my sugar ! Good read very informative.
Does managesium help mental health?
Magnesium deficiency is under diagnosed. I was having heart palpitations and once the reality of my Magnesium levels were low, I started Magnesium supplements and it stopped. PVC’s are miserable and dangerous.
How can this magnesium help me with my blood sugars levels are high in the 13/14.3 range,
And what is a good doze to start off with?
There are several different types of magnesium. I had bariatric surgery a number of years ago and Im age 66. What type of magnesium is best & what dose? Also, is there any value to the magnesium topical sprays?
Thank you for the informative article about magnesium. I was not aware of these symptoms. I have experienced a number of them. I used to take the One A Day vitamins. For some reason I stopped taking them. Now I am on insulin for my Type 2. I wonder if the magnesium in them is sufficient or should I take additional magnesium?

I do feel a difference….however I drink alcohol and started suffering from neuropathy and tingling in my fingers as well. I am not sure what to do about it. Any suggestions would help.
