Magnesium also supports healthy blood sugar levels and normal blood pressure. Cellular magnesium deficiency can express itself as fatigue and low energy, inability to sleep, muscle tension, nervousness, sluggish bowels and heart irregularities. It can also exacerbate an already existing disease state or increase the risk of complications in many health conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eWhy Calcium?\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCalcium is an important nutrient for maintaining total body health. Your body needs it every day, not just to keep your bones and teeth strong, but to ensure proper functioning of muscles and nerves. It even supports healthy blood clotting!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut too much calcium is a problem, as it can deplete the body of magnesium. Calcium acts to excite nerves and is necessary for muscle contraction. Magnesium, on the other hand, calms nerves and is needed for muscle relaxation. Calcium makes bones stiff and hard, but magnesium is needed to avoid them becoming brittle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn excess of unabsorbed calcium may result in kidney stones and deposits in soft tissues such as arteries and heart cells, where it can calcify or harden into insoluble calcium. You experience the tensing (calcium) and relaxing (magnesium) interaction of these two elements each time your heart beats, when you feel your pulse, and every time you breathe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eWhy they should be in balance?\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCalcium makes muscles contract, while magnesium allows them to relax. Calcium is needed for blood clotting, but magnesium keeps the blood flowing freely. The good news is your body knows exactly how to create this balance, that is, when it has the right amount of these two fundamental nutrients available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur bodies are designed to obtain the nutrients we need from the food we eat, including plenty of magnesium. Most of us don't get enough magnesium in our diet, while we often take in an excess of calcium, mainly from dairy products and supplements. Both high-calcium diets and stress-filled lives deplete the magnesium in our bodies even further. That’s where Natural Calm comes in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eAbout Natural Vitality\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNatural Vitality's mission is to provide premium and efficacious products that have a valid and unique reason for being.
