Magnesium is an essential mineral that is important for adequate calcium absorption, cellular metabolism and overall healthy body functioning. The symptoms of magnesium deficiency can include poor appetite, anxiety, mental confusion, weakness, fatigue, confusion, sleep disturbances, and muscles spasms and twitching. Suggested daily dosages for magnesium are:
Age 1-4 |
125 – 250 mg |
Age 5-10 |
250 – 400 mg |
Age 10+ |
500+ mg |
It is important to be aware that magnesium can cause loose stools and/or diarrhea when given in higher doses. If these symptoms appear, reduce the dosage until bowel movements normalize. For individuals following a dairy free diet, additional calcium supplementation (without magnesium) may be necessary to supply adequate calcium without exceeding the magnesium recommended dosage.
