Vitamin D plays an important role in body function, regulate the amount of calcium the body needs to maintain healthy bones, teeth and muscles remain healthy. This vitamin comes primarily from sunlight, which means it is easily obtainable during the summer months.

New research, published in Science Daily, has now suggested that vitamin D may not be metabolized without sufficient magnesium levels, which means vitamin D remains inactive and inactive. If vitamin D does this, your body does not benefit from essential vitamins.

 Symptoms of magnesium deficiency include muscle twitching, cramps, and can lead to more serious health problems such as osteoporosis and high blood pressure. So why is magnesium so important, besides helping the body absorb vitamins?

Nutrition and fitness instructor, Cassandra Barns revealed, magnesium is a mineral that many of the human can experience deficiencies, both in women and men, but this is very important for women.

"Magnesium plays a role in breaking down excess hormones in the liver, promoting a healthy balance of hormones, which is related to calming the nervous system, which can help us cope with stress, relieve anxiety and encourage better sleep," said Cassandra Barns, quoted from the Express page on Sunday (11/3).

"It supports the balance of blood sugar to prevent and control desire, and magnesium also plays a role in bone strength, which has become very important since the age of 40s and beyond," he continued.
