Magnesium Deficiency and Anxiety

You know the symptoms too well; agitation, irritability, tachycardia, obsessive negative thoughts and the feeling that you are going to die or you are going to suffer a fulminating disease. Anxiety has many phases but all of them have a common indicator that is fear, an adaptive fear that becomes irrational.


There are new studies indicating that the cause of anxiety may be more organic than you think. Specifically, magnesium deficiency can be closely linked to high levels of anxiety.


Magnesium is an essential mineral for human life. In fact, the correct development and cellular growth, as well as the functioning of the nervous system, require daily amounts of magnesium.


This is stated by the nutritionist Dr. Emily Deans who, in addition, has found a great correlation between states of anxiety and lack of magnesium. The symptoms are; anxiety, irregular heart rate, hormonal imbalance, muscle cramps, spasms, insomnia and irritability.


But, how can we prevent this magnesium deficiency?


It is estimated that 85% of the world population suffers from magnesium deficiency. In a stressful situation, the adrenal glands release adrenaline. This generates an input of calcium into the cell and, at the same time, an output of magnesium. In turn, this magnesium deficiency increases sensitivity to stress. " This creates a vicious cycle that is difficult to break.


In this regard, the recommendations are to combine psychological therapy to better cope with stress and, at the same time, optimize magnesium intake. Let us not forget that the causes of stress are of a varied nature, which requires a complementary relationship between the psychological and nutritional levels.
