Magnesium is an important mineral that, among other functions, plays a role in the regulation of mood and represents the fourth most common cation in the human organism. In addition, magnesium acts as a cofactor in more than 300 enzymatic reactions. It is crucial for the regulation of such important functions as muscle contraction, neuromuscular conduction, blood sugar control, heart contraction, and blood pressure.  Magnesium is needed for energy production, ion transport, DNA synthesis, and bone development. Hypomagnesemia is common in clinical practice, although often not diagnosed because serum magnesium represents only 1% of total body magnesium located at the intracellular level, which amounts to 99%.  Isolation from most foods, such as many magnesium compounds present in such food, and the resultant consumption of highly processed foods result in a very poor intake of magnesium for many of today's people.

Vitamin D is crucial in the absorption of calcium and maintenance of calcium balance within the body and is, therefore, important in maintaining good bone health and ensuring proper metabolism.  Vitamin D deficiency can result from any disruption of the physiological pathway of vitamin D, from synthesis in the skin via sun exposure to activation and utilization inside the body. It can lead to serious manifestations, such as bone pain, muscle weakness, falls, low bone density, and increased risk of fractures.  To use vitamin D in the body, first, the liver must change it into another form called 25 hydr...
