Magnesium plays a major role in the body’s daily performance, supporting muscle function, nerve signals, energy production, and steady heart activity. It also works alongside calcium and vitamin D to support healthy bones and balanced mineral levels. When intake stays low for long periods, the body may struggle to keep these systems running smoothly. Certain lifestyle factors can also affect magnesium reserves, including digestive problems that reduce absorption, frequent alcohol intake, long-term stress, and diets high in heavily processed foods. Some medications may also lower magnesium levels over time, and aging can make it harder for the body to maintain strong stores.
