According to the NHS magnesium is needed in the body to turn the food we eat into energy, as well as making sure the parathyroid glands, which produce hormones important for bone health, work normally.
You should be able to get all the magnesium you need by eating a balanced diet.
Men need around 300mg of magnesium, whereas women need about 270mg.
However, if you do need to take a magnesium supplement to top up levels it advises taking no more than 400mg a day.
