Magnesium - the mineral your heart needs
Is dark chocolate good for your heart? Research by Dr. Bernard Jensen indicates that the heart muscle requires these two minerals more than any other minerals: magnesium and potassium. In the heart muscle Magnesium is concentrated eighteen times greater than in the bloodstream. When heart problems occur, magnesium is the most likely mineral to be missing in the person’s diet.The overall strength and vigor of the heart muscle and its ability to pump effectively is enhanced by the presence of magnesium, and this important mineral also decreases blood coagulation and thus can lower blood pressure.
Cocoa beans and organic dark chocolate are one of the best food
sources of this heart-supporting mineral, Magnesium.
Very few people are aware of the enormous role magnesium plays in our
bodies. After oxygen, water, and basic food, magnesium may be the most
important element needed by our bodies. So vitally important, yet hardly known. Magnesium is by far the most important mineral in the body, activating over 300 different biochemical reactions in your body all necessary for your body to function properly.
Magnesium is more important than calcium, potassium or sodium and regulates all three of them. When we get too low on oxygen, water or food, the consequences are serious. Yet, we often don’t realize the consequences of magnesium deficiency.
The Improper use of magnesium among health professionals and the population in general, is deeply responsible for many of the failures encountered daily in treating chronic health conditions nationwide.
90-95% of the population is deficient, including many of those what already supplement it. Why? Due to the misleading information presented in common magnesium texts. As a result, magnesium remains largely misunderstood, largely misused and the problem goes on undetected.
Did you know that without sufficient magnesium you would actually die? Your heart will stop beating and the doctors will then call it a “heart attack” (#1 cause of death in America). Never do they say, “He dies from a Magnesium Deficiency.”
This is how critical it is to have proper magnesium levels in the body. The early signs of
such terminal extinction are racing heart-beats, or any unusual change in heart beats, angina pains, collapsing from exhaustion after heavy physical exercise or work such as running a race, playing football or basket ball. Due to lack of magnesium the heart muscle develops a spasm or cramp and stops beating. this is because there is
insufficient magnesium to relax the heart ready for the next contraction. Irregular heartbeats are also caused by magnesium deficiency. This may be the answer why so many young athletes are having heart attack for no known reason.
