Feeling Fit has chosen Albion Advanced Nutrition’s mineral technology to provide the highest quality minerals for optimal absorption and utilization.

Magnesium is involved in over 300 enzyme-related processes including cardiac, muscle and nerve function, and the production of ATP for energy. Magnesium also plays a role in supporting optimal bone density and maintenance of blood glucose levels.

Magnesium Deficiency and Atherosclerosis
Townsend Letter #206 Dr. M.Werbach, MD

Magnesium deficiency is associated with an increased risk of coronary artery disease and heart attacks. In a large survey people with cardiovascular disease had significantly lower serum magnesium levels than those without the disease.(Ma J et al. J Clin Epidemiol 1995:48 (7) : 927-40) Also magnesium has anti thrombotic action, mainly due to its anti-platelet effect, which suggests that magnesium supplementation may help prevent coronary thrombosis.

Magnesium may have a positive effect on raisin HDL (good cholesterol) when they are low while lowering total cholesterol levels.(Goodwin JS et al. Metabolism 1985:34(6):519-23 Magnesium has an action similar to that of statins.(Bremner I, Beattie JH.Pro Nutr Soc 1995: 54;489-99

In the book Alternative Medicine by Burton Goldburg Group magnesium helps to dialate arteries and ease the heart's pumping of blood and may also prevent calcification of blood vessels. According to Dr. Cowden most doctors do not use the best form for optimal absorption. It is more effective to use magnesium glycinate.

For overall health magnesium helps maintain the proper pH of the blood.

Magnesium and Brain Function Dr. David Pearlmutter MD Brain Recovery

This important mineral is critical in a program designed to preserve and enhance brain function for several important reasons. First, adequate amounts of magnesium are necessary for the electrical depolarization of the neuronal membrane. This process by which chemical messages are transmitted from one neuron to another. Next, magnesium enhances the function of various brain antioxidants thus helping to protect the brain against free radical damage. Finally, magnesium helps to prevent the production of specific chemicals within the body which increase inflammation. In Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis, inflammation represents a fundamental mechanism enhancing the formation of brain damaging free radicals.
