Gluten Free Magnesium

Gluten Free Magnesium Supplements

Achieving optimal vitamin absorption is not always easy even with great attempts at a balanced diet, which is why adding a magnesium supplement to your day can have fantastic effects on your overall health. You can feel it in your body when you are lacking in magnesium as you experience irritability, muscle weakness, or even an irregular heartbeat. Your body cannot produce this essential mineral, so you must obtain it through food or supplements. Leafy greens, legumes, nuts, and seeds offer some magnesium, but are often not enough. Thankfully there is a plethora of gluten-free magnesium supplements available at CVS both in-store and online to ensure you are reaching your daily nutritional values easily. Taking a magnesium supplement can also help to lower your risk of heart disease while improving your blood pressure, mood, and blood sugar control.
