Magnesium for athletes
Athletes have an increased need for magnesium because the mineral is increasingly excreted during exercise. That is why keen athletes and competitive athletes in particular are dependent on an increased intake of magnesium. In this article, we explain what you need to consider as an athlete and why magnesium is so important for athletes.
Why the body excretes magnesium during exercise
The reason why more magnesium is excreted during sport is sometimes evolutionary. During exercise, the body is in a kind of stressful state. So that the muscle-relaxing effect does not stand in the way of an escape reflex, the body sends the signal to release magnesium. At the same time, the metabolism is accelerated during an extensive training session. Muscle activity increases and thus the excretion of magnesium through the kidneys also increases.
The higher the training intensity, the higher the magnesium loss. A deficiency often occurs, especially in endurance athletes.
When should athletes take magnesium?
Magnesium is very important for athletes because it ensures normal muscle function. Magnesium also contributes to normal energy metabolism and normal protein synthesis.
The magnesium stores should already be replenished before sport in order to be able to achieve the best possible physical performance. But magnesium is also very important for athletes after sport, which is why you should also take magnesium afterwards.
