Understanding Magnesium's Role in Women's Health

Why Magnesium Is So Powerful – And Why You Might Need More of It

Hi lovely ladies,

Let’s talk about a quiet hero in your health story: magnesium. It’s one of those essential minerals that does so much behind the scenes, yet many of us aren’t getting enough of it, especially during midlife when our bodies are asking for more TLC.

Factors Contributing to Magnesium Depletion

Magnesium is involved in over 300 biochemical reactions in the body. From helping you sleep better to supporting heart health, managing stress, improving blood sugar balance, reducing inflammation, and easing muscle cramps, magnesium is a total powerhouse.

  • Regulates muscle and nerve function

  • Supports a steady heartbeat

  • Keeps bones strong

  • Aids in energy production

  • Helps manage mood and stress

  • Supports blood sugar balance

Understanding Magnesium Supplements

Signs You Might Be Deficient

Sadly, most of us don’t get enough magnesium from food alone. Processed diets, stress, medications (like proton pump inhibitors or diuretics), and even alcohol can deplete your levels.

The Benefits of Restore

The Best Form of Magnesium

When it comes to supplements, not all magnesium is created equal. Some forms (like magnesium oxide) are poorly absorbed and can cause digestive upset. Others, like magnesium citrate or bisglycinate, are far gentler and much more absorbable by the body.

That’s why I absolutely LOVE our Restore supplement – it contains highly bioavailable magnesium along with other essential nutrients that work synergistically to help you feel more balanced, energised, and calm.

My Midlife Magnesium Tip

Start small – just introducing a high-quality magnesium supplement at night can do wonders for your sleep and mood. Add in magnesium-rich foods like spinach, almonds, dark chocolate (yes, please!), avocado, and pumpkin seeds, and you’ll be giving your body a beautiful boost.

It’s Never Too Late to Feel Better

I always say: we’re not broken, we’re just out of balance. Supporting your body with the right nutrients like magnesium can be the gentle nudge your system needs to reset and shine.
