In a stressful situation, the suprarenal (also known as adrenal) glands release catecholamines (adrenaline) causing calcium to enter the cells and magnesium to leave them. This results in a deficit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What factors require a larger dose of magnesium?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Eating disorders, unbalanced diets, poor eating habits, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Fatigue, time or seasonal changes.<\/li>\n<li>Premenstrual syndrome, pregnancy and menopause.<\/li>\n<li>When there is exposure to stress, such as overwork, magnesium and vitamin B compound are fundamental.<\/li>\n<li>In sport, magnesium deficit hinders the ability to sustain strenuous effort.<\/li>\n<li>In older people, the body\u2019s total magnesium, particularly in bones, diminishes with age.<\/li>\n<li>Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Long-term use of Omeprazol reduces magnesium.<\/li>\n<li>The prolonged use of diuretics can lead to major magnesium loss.<\/li>\n<li>Type 2 diabetes is frequently linked to a magnesium d\u00e9ficit due to insulin dysfunction.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The cardiovascular system is a major target for magnesium, in terms of both deficit and excess.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Which foods provide magnesium?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Magnesium is found in wholegrain products such as wheat and its derivatives. Other products rich in magnesium include spinach, quinoa, almonds, peanuts, dark chocolate, tuna and mackerel.<\/p>\n<h6><\/h6>\n<h6><strong><u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.asssa.es\/en\/insurance\/health-insurance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ASSSA Health Insurance<\/a><\/u><\/strong><\/h6>\n<h6><em>The information published in this media neither substitutes nor complements in any way the direct supervision of a doctor, his diagnosis or the treatment that he may prescribe.
