5. High blood pressure
If you suffer from high blood pressure, you know how important vitamins and minerals are for your body, especially magnesium! Sources say that a lack of this mineral can raise your blood pressure and encourage hypertension, a major risk factor for heart disease.
Moreover, research indicates that poor food consumption or low magnesium levels can put you more at risk. According to sources, magnesium supplements can help lower blood pressure, so ask your doctor if you can take any.
6. Irregular heartbeat
An irregular heartbeat, also known as heart arrhythmia, is a potentially serious consequence of magnesium deficiency. Arrhythmias can manifest as anything from mild symptoms to extremely dangerous ones. Certain people might experience heart palpitations, which are pauses between heartbeats.
In the most extreme cases, arrhythmia might raise the risk of heart failure or stroke, so take care of your body and your health. One health issue can quickly lead to another, so it’s always good to eat healthily, move your body, and go to regular checkups.

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!
