Body makes demand for magnesium
|
Q. How does one get deficient in magnesium? What kinds of food
contain magnesium? What do diuretics have to do with magnesium
deficiency?
A. Magnesium is an important body element, the normal adult
requiring about 300 milligrams daily. Most people get it from a
balanced diet.
When the body senses that it is getting low on magnesium, the
kidneys start conserving it.
If a person is using water pills (diuretics), the conservation
effort can be thwarted by the great release of body fluid.
Magnesium deficiency may arise in malnutrition, alcoholism,
chronic diarrhea or kidney disease.
