Magnesium is vital for bone health, but is a supplement necessary for osteoporosis? In this video, I dive into the relationship between magnesium and bone health, helping you decide whether or not to include magnesium supplements in your routine.

Hi, I’m Sarah Mapes, My mission is to reduce the number of osteoporotic fractures each year, and I’m thrilled to have you join me on this journey to better bone health.

Magnesium, like calcium, plays a critical role in your body. It not only supports bone strength but also promotes heart health and helps regulate calcium levels to prevent unwanted deposits in soft tissues like arteries. In this video, I cover:

- The best time to take magnesium for optimal absorption
- The balance between calcium and magnesium intake
- How magnesium supports muscle function and reduces fall risk
- The impact of stress on magnesium levels
- Natural food sources of magnesium

If you’re considering magnesium supplements, learn why magnesium citrate might be the best choice and how much magnesium you should really be taking daily.

Plus, I discuss the potential digestive issues associated with high magnesium doses and why you might not need to supplement if your diet is rich in magnesium-containing foods.
