Lack of magnesium increases the risk of DNA damage and many different diseases
Magnesium is vital for our health and for cell division. Magnesium deficiency, on the other hand, increases the risk of damage to the cellular DNA, which can result in a number of different chronic degenerative diseases, according to a new study from University of South Australia. The researchers also observed that magnesium helps to regulate a particular amino acid. Elevated blood levels of this compound are known to increase the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, gastrointestinal diseases, diabetes, and several types of cancer. Many people lack magnesium because of unhealthy eating habits, stimulant abuse, medicine use, and stress.
