The metabolic process of activating energy and using it is directly related to magnesium (5)
We are made up of around 100 trillion cells. (8) Each of these cells must produce energy. In biochemistry, this is called ATP (adenosine triphosphate), a nucleus.
Work requires energy. This energy is supplied to the cell by ATP. ATP is not only used by the organism within the cell (intracellular) but also outside (extracellular). For example, ATP is needed to regulate blood flow or to inhibit inflammation. If the amount of ATP in the body falls below the "healthy" value, our body produces degenerated, i.e. diseased cells.
In order to produce healthy cells, we therefore need magnesium, among other things. The ongoing processes activate around 300 enzymes, which in turn are responsible for DNA and RNA synthesis, the transport of minerals or the creation of various nerve impulses.
In short: All our cells, from the brain cell to the skin cell on the big toe, are supplied with energy by ATP. In order to produce ATP, the body also needs sufficient magnesium, among other things. This also explains why this nutrient can be used to combat fatigue.
But there is more. Magnesium counteracts heartburn or general overacidification of the body.
Magnesium neutralizes stomach acid (5)
Magnesium salts react with gastric acid to form magnesium chloride and thereby neutralize the acid.
According to this study, it is self-explanatory that oral intake is preferable in this case. At the same time, however, it also explains why the transdermal dosage form is more suitable for some people.
