Magnesium is known as the anti-
stress mineral. But the relationship between
magnesium and
stress works in two directions:
stress depletes magnesium, but
magnesium counteracts
stress. Any
stress, whether mental or physical, will
deplete magnesium from the body. The body uses up
magnesium stores in reacting to
stress.If you
take magnesium as a supplement, studies that showed that
magnesium can have anti-anxiety effects generally used dosages of between 75 and 360 mg a day, according to the 2017 review. It's best to consult a healthcare practitioner before taking any supplement so you know the correct
dose for you.
