I’m a mineral used by every organ in your body, especially your heart, muscles and kidneys. I’m stored in the bones and organs, and used mostly for biological functions.
Sadly enough, a lot of you are probably deficient in me and don’t even know I exist, which is why I’m often called the “invisible deficiency”. This is a shame because I truly can help! I don’t mean to brag, but my role in the body is pretty powerful, see:
- I help in the body’s detoxification process, preventing damage from chemicals, heavy metals and toxins in the body
- I help digest proteins, carbohydrates and fats
- I activate the muscles and the nerves
- I also help relax the muscles in the body
- It has also been said that I can help prevent chronic disease
You’ve probably seen me out and about, but just haven’t recognised me. I love hanging out in spinach leaves, pumpkin seeds, bananas, quinoa, almonds and avocados.
My hobbies include giving you energy and counteracting abnormal heart rhythms, muscle spasms, evening leg cramps and those sleepy, twitchy eyelids.
Have you guessed who I am yet?

I’m….. MAGNESIUM!
Did you guess correctly?
ARE YOU DEFICIENT IN MAGNESIUM?
An effective way to counteract the effects of low magnesium levels is to fill your diet with foods such as leafy greens, seeds and nuts. Another fantastic way to increase these levels is by means of a supplement or powder. Bonfire currently have both a day magnesium and night magnesium to help you on your journey to conquer the invisible deficiency! Please see in studio for more details!
