Magnesium is a vital mineral substance that plays a crucial role in the function of all energy-reliant processes in the human body, in particular for the optimal functioning of muscles and nervous system.

As the human body can not produce magnesium itself, magnesium must be obtained through foodstuffs. The recommended daily amount of magnesium is 300mg.

An over-average daily amount is necessary when the body is subjected to increased exertion (physical activity and sport), or in the case of mental tension and stress. A deficiency of magnesium can lead to nervousness, lack of concentration and tension.
