Why is magnesium important?

Magnesium is involved in over 300 reactions in the body. It supports the brain, heart and muscles to do their job. Helping with energy, muscle function and electrolytes.

 Is the Vitamin D depleting Magnesium?

No. While it is correct that large amounts of vitamin D can deplete magnesium in the body, the amounts of vitamin D and magnesium are in a normal ratio in Magnesium Malate. And vice versa, to get the full benefit of vitamin D (for immune support and bone health) you need adequate magnesium levels. Magnesium Malate contains Vitamin D (44% of the daily recommended value), so both can benefit from each other. Do I need magnesium?

Even though magnesium is at the core of so many important processes in the body, 48% of Americans consume inadequate amounts of magnesium in their diets (especially when not eating enough whole unprocessed foods). A daily intake of 310 mg magnesium for women and 400 mg magnesium for men is recommended.
