What is Magnesium?
Magnesium is an essential mineral that is crucial for many bodily processes, including muscle and nerve function, blood pressure regulation, and supporting the immune system.
Why should you have Magnesium tested?
Testing magnesium levels can be useful in diagnosing or monitoring certain health conditions, particularly if you are experiencing symptoms that may indicate a magnesium deficiency or excess. It can also be part of a routine health check to ensure general well-being.
What does it indicate?
The magnesium test measures the amount of magnesium in the blood. This level can provide insight into the individual's overall health, especially in relation to muscle and nerve function, heart health, and bone strength.
What does a high magnesium level mean?
A high magnesium level may indicate various health problems, including kidney failure, where the kidneys are unable to effectively eliminate magnesium from the body. It may also point to an excessive intake of magnesium supplements.
What does a low magnesium level mean?
A low magnesium level may indicate a deficiency, which can lead to muscle cramps, fatigue, and irritability of the nervous system. It may also be associated with osteoporosis, heart disease, and diabetes.
