MAGNESIUM IN ALOE VERA


There are at least nine minerals including magnesium in Aloe Vera. In case you are wondering, the other eight are:

  • Calcium
  • Sodium
  • Iron
  • Potassium
  • Chromium
  • Zinc
  • Manganese
  • Copper

  • If we were trying to find the magnesium present in our bodies, it would be a good idea to start with our bones where there is 70%. The rest is present in our body fluids and soft tissues.

    What does it do?

    Magnesium helps to activate enzymes and participates in conducting the electrical impulses necessary for nerves and muscles. It is also crucial for the 100s of chemical reactions occurring in the body every second. Recent research suggests that it has important health-promoting benefits.

    In their book THE MAGNESIUM FACTOR, paediatrician Dr Mildred Seelig and nutritionist Dr Andrea Rosanoff stress that the majority of people in the Western world suffer from magnesium deficiency. They claim that this is a major cause of heart disease and diabetes, among other significant common ailments.

    It is also claimed that low magnesium causes heart arrhythmia and is involved in migraine attacks. Some studies recorded that drugs used in asthma cause a loss of magnesium.

    If you’re now wondering whether you need magnesium, here are some possible signs that you do:

  • Restless legs
  • Muscle twitches
  • Dental pain
  • Migraine headaches
  • Muscle cramps in feet or legs
  • Aching muscles
  • Brain ‘fogging’
  • Anxiety or irritability
  • Might this be a good time to consider drinking Aloe Vera, or topping up your mineral intake in some other way?
