Magnesium is a mineral needed by EVERY CELL of your body!
In days of old, before the advent of industrial agriculture, our foods were grown in soil that was rich in minerals. The vegetables produced in this nutrient-dense soil reflected the high content of important nutrients such as zinc, copper and magnesium.
Unfortunately, living in the age of mass production of our foods, vegetables are grown in soil that is profoundly depleted in so many important trace elements. Of all the important minerals necessary to maintain our health, there is no question that magnesium is among the most critical. Magnesium is essential for human health.
One of the most important roles that magnesium plays is that it serves as a cofactor (meaning it is necessary for function) for over 325 enzymes in the human body, including all the enzymes that are involved in producing energy as well as manufacturing our DNA. In addition, it plays a key role in regulating the activity of muscles and nerves, immune function, how our hormones work and even how we metabolize our food.
