Today, I want to cover the first sign of magnesium deficiency. Many people don’t get enough magnesium from their diet, not to mention other factors that deplete magnesium.

Magnesium is a cofactor involved in 350 enzymes. A cofactor is something that is required by an enzyme to work.

Symptoms of magnesium deficiency:

• Cramping

• Twitching

• Arrhythmia

• Osteoporosis

• Osteomalacia

• Insulin resistance

• Insomnia

• High cortisol

• Depression

However, the number one symptom of magnesium deficiency is fatigue.

The top cause of low magnesium is not consuming enough magnesium in the diet. Foods rich in magnesium are vegetables and leafy greens.

Consuming large salads is a great way to get the magnesium you need. But you can also take a magnesium supplement. If you do take a supplement, consider magnesium glycinate.

Other causes of magnesium deficiency:

1. Refined foods

2. Fructose

3. Alcohol

4. Certain medications
