Should you add magnesium to your routine?
Magnesium is a critical mineral for the central nervous system, involved in over 600 biochemical reactions that regulate everything from mood to memory. It plays a key role in both brain and body functions - and yet it's estimated that over 50% of Americans don't get enough magnesium (1). The recommended daily allowance of magnesium is 420 mg, which can be hard to get from food alone.
Read below to see just how crucial magnesium is for optimal health, and then shop our Magnesium Collection, where every product contains highly-absorbable magnesium to help support you from head to toe.

Magnesium benefits for the brain
Memory and Learning: Magnesium regulates NMDA receptors, which are essential for the brain's ability to form new connections. Higher magnesium levels have been linked to better long-term memory and larger brain volumes. (2)
Mood and Stress Management: Magnesium inhibits the release of stress hormones like cortisol, helping to create a healthy sense of relaxation. It also blunts excitatory glutamate while boosting GABA, the primary calming neurotransmitter in the brain.
Neuroprotection: Magnesium helps maintain the blood-brain barrier, helping to keep the brain protected. It also helps support healthy inflammatory levels in the brain.
Restorative Sleep: Magnesium helps the nervous system transition into a restful state by regulating melatonin and GABA. Studies specifically show improvements in deep sleep and REM sleep stages. (3)
Energy Production: Magnesium is vital for converting food into energy.
