Magnesium Deficiency And Heart Palpitations
A magnesium deficiency is associated with so many health conditions, that it often over looked as a cause of symptoms such as heart palpitations. Heart health is more often related to high cholesterol levels, eating trans fats, or lack of exercise. However, heart palpitations are part of the generalized anxiety disorder, or social anxiety disorder, which seems have to become almost epidemic in our modern cultures.
What’s more, magnesium deficiency is hard to discover because a simple blood test doesn’t show it. Magnesium is at work in over 350 biochemical processes in our bodies, so where does a doctor start testing? It’s much more simple to look at an array of common magnesium deficiency signs, such as the following:
- heart palpitations
- chronic fatigue
- muscle cramps and twitches
- poor sleep
- irritability and nervousness (such as generalized anxiety disorder)
- headaches, and neck and backaches
- PMS or menstrual cramps and many more…
But it’s so easy to correct.
Heart palpitations can occur out of nowhere, leading someone to think there’s something wrong with their heart muscle or their cardiovascular system. Yet, the firing of the heart muscle muscle, like all your muscles, needs magnesium. So here is one example of magnesium deficiency that can bring on a feeling of generalized anxiety disorder when your problem is very simple.
Magnesium is one of the essential nutrients we need to maintain optimum health conditions. Decades of soil depletion has decreased many of the essential nutrients in our foods. Plus, the green vegetables and dark leafy salads that do provide magnesium and other minerals are often left out of our diets.
Magnesium is a keystone of the essential nutrients for our health. A daily supplement will correct your magnesium deficiency.
