Magnesium has long been underappreciated for its remarkable cardiovascular benefits, but to Dr. Sinatra, it has always been the perfect mineral for heart health. That's because it's one of your body's most critical nutrients, offering support for healthy blood flow and healthy arteries. And, it can provide support for one of the top indicators of heart health—inflammatory markers, including C-Reactive Protein (CRP). This is all GREAT news for your heart, especially since stressful times can take a toll on many heart health markers.
But on top of the remarkable heart benefits magnesium offers, it can also help provide some relief from stress and anxiousness, which we could all likely use right now. And, it even promotes a positive mood and outlook. All of which can help better prepare you for a good night of rest. In fact, magnesium is involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions—making it vital to producing ATP (the body's basic fuel for every cell in your body).
Unfortunately, magnesium deficiency has run rampant in this country because it's hard to get enough from our food and water supply. Plus, other factors like stress and certain medicines can contribute to magnesium depletion.
So, what can you do about it?
Although it's important to eat food rich in magnesium—like whole grains, fish and other seafood, leafy greens, soy products, and seeds and nuts—daily supplementation is key to keep your levels consistent and healthy.
In addition to its role in supporting heart health, magnesium helps maintain bone and muscle health in men.
For all these reasons, magnesium has been one of Dr. Sinatra's top recommendations for overall health. But, it can be difficult to know which type of magnesium to take—because there are a lot of options out there.
The best kind to take is a combination of forms—ones that are better absorbed, like in Dr. Sinatra's Magnesium Broad-Spectrum Complex. It includes 4 absorbable, superior forms. This means that you not only get more of this wonderful mineral, but are better able to utilize it throughout your body. So, no matter how your metabolism works, you're covered...especially during stressful or challenging times. Give it a try, and let us know what you think.
