Low Magnesium Levels

Low magnesium levels refer to an insufficient amount of this mineral in the body. Magnesium plays a role in energy, muscle and nerve function, and bone health, so maintaining an adequate intake through diet is important.

Possible signs: Cramps or muscle tension, fatigue, irritability, and sometimes sleep disturbances.

Contributing factors: A diet low in leafy green vegetables, seeds, legumes, and whole grains, as well as digestive losses or high consumption of ultra-processed foods.

Which professional can help? The nutritionist, including the clinical nutritionist, assesses your eating habits and provides guidance on how to meet your magnesium needs in a balanced way. If you suspect your diet is deficient or you have frequent symptoms, scheduling a nutritional evaluation is a good way to care for your well-being in a comprehensive manner.
