Magnesium

« Back to Glossary Index

Magnesium is a silver-white malleable ductile light metallic element that occurs abundantly in nature and is used in metallurgical and chemical processes, in photography, signaling, and pyrotechnics because of the intense white light it produces on burning [1]. In medicine, it is a mineral used by the body to help maintain muscles, nerves, and bones [2]. It is a lightweight, moderately hard, silvery-white metallic element of the alkaline-earth group that burns with an intense white flame [3]. Magnesium is an essential component in the human body and is important for a variety of functions such as helping to regulate blood sugar levels, functioning as a nerve agent, and being involved in the production of energy. Magnesium can be found in various foods, including grasshoppers, crickets, and mealworms, as well as in supplements, such as the Momentous Elite Sleep capsules.
