Magnesium is essential for muscle health and recovery

( Natural News ) Intense exercise imposes a lot of strain on your muscles. To restore those important tissues to their healthiest state at a faster pace, an article in Sports Injury Clinic suggests increasing your intake of magnesium through food, drinks, and supplements. Magnesium plays a significant role in maintaining general muscular health. It speeds up the recovery of sore muscles. It is also vital for muscle relaxation. Its benefits are not just limited to the muscles. Magnesium possesses significant anti-inflammatory activity so that it can prevent the onset of inflammatory diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and arthritis.e It improves the body’s ability to absorb calcium into the bones, ensuring the strength of the skeleton. The nerves that crisscross the entire body also use up magnesium at a constant rate. Rigorous physical exercise can deplete magnesium levels in the body — a severe magnesium deficiency results in muscles that are perpetually locked in a contracted position. This unpleasant state could prolong bouts of distressful pain and even cause severe injuries. Furthermore, calcium levels in the blood will rise because of the lower absorption rates. This weakens bones, cause osteoporosis for women, and contribute to the onset of heart problems. (Related: The surprising link between magnesium and brain health .)
