That’s everything from muscle relaxation and nerve transmission to blood sugar regulation, energy production, and detoxification.And yet — most people are deficient.Not because we aren’t eating enough magnesium-rich foods like leafy greens, nuts, seeds, and legumes, but also because our soils are depleted, our stress levels are high, and many of us take medications that deplete magnesium even further — like proton pump inhibitors, diuretics, and birth control pills.But here’s the kicker. Even when people do take magnesium supplements, they often don’t feel better — because they’re taking the wrong kind. Magnesium Matters
