The most important mineral to me is magnesium. I believe that for many years I was low in this mineral and it caused all kinds of problems for me. Magnesium is responsible for 800 processes in the body. Magnesium is necessary for proper functioning of muscles, including those in the lining of your digestive tract. Magnesium is probably the most important nutrient for the human heart; it helps the heart muscle itself function better. Magnesium also helps protect blood vessels, which is where most of what we call heart disease actually happens. Perhaps the area where magnesium could have the biggest impact is in the prevention of diabetes: Scientists have proven that magnesium levels are low in people with diabetes; people with higher magnesium levels do not develop diabetes; and that supplementing with magnesium appears to help reverse pre-diabetes. culturedfoodlife/mineral-saved-life/
