Magnesium Statistics:
- society is 70% deficient
- Endurance athletes need 20-30%> Mg
- Critical for electrolyte absorption
- vital for muscle functions
- ATP precursor
- Neurotransmitter
- Adrenal/hormone support
- required with Calcium
With Magnesium having a valuable roll in over 300 enzymatic body processes, and the society deficiencies being +70%, we have strong beliefs of the positive effects of this important mineral.
The list of body functions Mg affects is lengthy, and will become the 'new' calcium in terms of importance to the body.
These numbers validate we are working with the mineral with the largest deficiency margin and with the greatest potential for elevated performance, cellular efficiency and replenishment.
One important area for endurance athletes is electrolytes.
Magnesium affects Aldosterone, which is a hormone that triggers the 'thirst' mechanism, hence supporting the electrolyte requirements of the sodium potassium pump.
HypoKalemia, HypoNatremia, Hypernatremia, are conditions related to electrolyte imbalances.
