Q: How do I know if I have a magnesium deficiency?

A: Magnesium deficiency can manifest in several ways, including muscle cramps, fatigue, stress, anxiety, headaches, restless legs, and trouble sleeping. Other signs of magnesium deficiency might include low energy, irritability, and poor concentration. Since magnesium is involved in over 300 enzymatic processes in the body, even mild deficiencies can impact your well-being. If you suspect a deficiency, consult a healthcare professional for testing and advice. Unfortunately, there is not yet a simple off-the-shelf test for measuring magnesium levels. There are several ways to assess magnesium status, including blood tests (serum magnesium), urine tests, and red blood cell (RBC) magnesium tests, which may provide a more accurate indication of long-term levels. Research suggests that more than half of the population in Western societies has a magnesium deficiency due to depleted soil, which impacts the natural magnesium content in food sources.

Q: Is magnesium dangerous?

A: Magnesium is generally safe for most people when used as directed, but always consult a health professional if you have kidney problems, heart conditions, or concerns about high doses.

Q: Can I take too much magnesium?

A: While magnesium is essential for health, excessive intake—especially from supplements—can cause digestive discomfort, including diarrhea and nausea. In extreme cases, too much magnesium can lower blood pressure, cause irregular heartbeat, or lead to dizziness and fainting. The recommended daily upper limit for magnesium supplements is around 350 mg for adults, but higher amounts can be consumed through food sources without risk.

Q: Does magnesium help with menstrual pain?
