Magnesium deficiency is receiving increasing attention, warn doctors

Doctors in Vietnam emphasize the importance of magnesium and warn of a possible deficiency. The mineral plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy joints and muscles. However, a deficiency is often overlooked.

Magnesium is also known as the 'national vitamin'. It is involved in hundreds of enzymatic processes in the body, including the functioning of muscles and joints. A deficiency can lead to complaints such as fatigue, muscle cramps and an increased risk of osteoarthritis.

According to the source, there is increasing awareness of the importance of magnesium. However, it is difficult to diagnose a deficiency because the symptoms are often diffuse. Doctors therefore advise consulting a doctor if symptoms persist.
