Magnesium helps keep blood pressure normal, bones strong, and the heart rhythm steady. It also controls your blood sugar levels and makes protein and DNA.

Magnesium deficiency 

When you don't get enough magnesium over time, you can end up with a deficiency. You may not feel it right away because your body tries to hold on to what little magnesium it has in your pee. Some illnesses and medicines can also mess with how your body handles magnesium, making deficiency more likely. Signs of a magnesium deficiency include:

• Not feeling hungry
• Feeling sick
• Throwing up
• Being tired
• Feeling weak

If you're really low on magnesium, you might feel numb and tingly, get muscle cramps, have seizures, or changes to your heart rhythm. Some people are more likely to have a magnesium deficiency. They include:

• People with gut problems such as Crohn's or celiac disease
• People with type 2 diabetes
• People who misuse alcohol over a long period
• Older adults
• People who have parathyroid problems
• People who take certain drugs for diabetes and cancer
• People with kidney disease
