Magnesium plays a major role in almost all of our bodily functions. On a cellular level, magnesium works to regulate our hormones (including our androgens- stress hormones), fight inflammation and stimulate neurotransmitters which are sent by the brain. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When our body is put under stress (which includes all of the things listed above), cortisol is released, pulling our body into a heightened state. With everyday functions like digestion or processing caffeine, we hardly notice the change, but with severe or sudden stressors, the change can be major. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Magnesium, as a regulator and relaxant, is one of the minerals the body calls on during this heightened state as it tries to maintain function & restore calm. Long periods in this state can quickly lead to magnesium deficiency as our body struggles to keep up with the demand.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

So how do we avoid depleting our stores?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Avoiding stress altogether is impossible, but reducing stressors can significantly help. And, of course, giving your body a break by supplementing can do wonders too! 🖤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
