Magnesium can be found in nuts, legumes, whole grains, and vegetables.

It helps the body to regulate enzymes which play a role in muscle control, electrical impulses, energy production, and the process of elimination of toxins.

Symptoms of a magnesium deficiency include nausea, loss of appetite, fatigue, weakness, numbness, cramps, and abnormal heart rhythms.
