In every muscle of our body, Calcium and Magnesium enjoy a reciprocal relationship. Calcium stimulates the muscles to contract and Magnesium helps them relax. When we are deficient in Calcium, we can borrow from vast reserves in our bones, but when we get low in Magnesium, we obtain it from our muscles. As Magnesium disappears from the muscles, Calcium rushes in and the muscles tend to become tense or cramp and we feel tired.
Different individuals absorb different kinds of Magnesium better than others.
Magnesium deficiencies result in excessive stress, high blood pressure, muscle cramps and spasms, fatigue, restlessness, irritability, depression, apathy, tremors, migraine headaches in pregnant women, asthma in young adults, severe tetanus and heart disease. Many researchers believe a lack of Magnesium may cause muscles of the arterial and venous walls to contract, causing high blood pressure, heart attacks and strokes. A prominent researcher has found that Magnesium helps to prevent migraine headaches in pregnant women. There is a tremendous demand for Magnesium for the developing fetus. It has been estimated that these women only get 50 to 60 percent of the RDA of Magnesium in their diets.
