Health - Certainly do not want to if your body feel tired. Moreover, we are required to complete the work that is very solid. If lately you often feel tired or sudden muscle cramps, although the schedule adequate rest, it is likely body is lacking magnesium.

Deficiency of this one by the experts said to be very difficult to detect and therefore they earned the nickname 'invisible deficiency'. The reason why is because it is difficult diagnosed deficiency can cause a variety of health problems that are similar to other diseases.

"Magnesium is involved in more than 300 biochemical processes of body. It affects everything from heart rate, muscle, to hormones," said Dr. Danine Fruge of the Pritikin Longevity Center, Florida, USA, such as reported by CNN.

Then how do I know someone is having magnesium deficiency?

Magnesium deficiency is divided into three stages and one can experience a variety of symptoms corresponding stages. Decreased appetite, nausea, and fatigue are symptoms that typically arise early. If the body is more severe magnesium deficiency symptoms such as tingling, cramping, numbness, and muscle reaction that can sometimes arise spontaneously. This is due to lack of magnesium has disrupted the normal functioning of muscles and nerves.

At the worst level of magnesium deficiency  is known to cause seiruzes behavioral changes, and abnormal heart rhythms. Fruge said diets such as soft drinks and foods with artificial sweeteners to watch. Soda interfere with the absorption of nutrients and artificial sweetener to encourage the kidneys to remove magnesium from the body. If someone likes to eat both of these Frude said most likely he suffered a mild magnesium deficiency.

To prevent food shortages green vegetables such as spinach, nuts, fish, and whole grains is good for consumption. In addition, if it is found necessary there are also supplements that can be consumed even though Frude reminded to be careful not to excessive.

"Your body has a mechanism to prevent an overdose of nutrients from some foods, but it does not apply if you take supplements. Too much magnesium can cause cardiac arrhythmia risk and it can be fatal, especially for people with diabetes," said Frudge.
