Magnesium influences digestion, energy production, muscle function, bone formation, creation of new cells, activation of B vitamins and relaxation of muscles, as well as assisting in the functions of the heart, kidneys, adrenals, brain and nervous system. Insufficient magnesium in the body can interfere with these body processes.

- Abnormal heart rhythms
- Headaches
