The nutritionist talked about the symptoms of magnesium deficiency and named the products that contain it.

The specialist stated that magnesium is a necessary macroelement for the body, which supports its active work. In particular, magnesium affects the regulation of energy metabolism and the nervous system. Magnesium reserves in the body are depleted by frequent stress and poor nutrition.

“A lack of magnesium threatens health problems: decreased immunity, sleep disturbances, and nutrient absorption (especially vitamin D). Magnesium not only maintains a normal emotional background, but also reduces the risk of fractures, strengthens muscles, and reduces the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes,” the doctor said.

In an interview with the Sport-Express portal, the expert listed products that contain magnesium. According to the doctor, by adding foods with a high content of magnesium to your diet, you can effectively protect yourself from deficiency and the unpleasant symptoms associated with it.

In particular, signs of a lack of a macronutrient include high anxiety, up to the appearance of panic attacks, muscle spasms, frequent headaches, as well as problems with digestion and psychological state, and loss of strength.

The nutritionist named the following foods to replenish magnesium deficiency: sesame, spinach, pumpkin seeds, dark chocolate, bananas, mackerel, nuts, and seaweed.
