Suffer from PCOS You couldbe deficient in Magnesium?

"Insulin Resistance, Heart Disease, Depression, Diabetes, osteoporosis, stress, PMS, cramping, high blood pressure, and preeclampsia, to name only a few, are conditions that have been linked to low levels of Magnesium. Check out www.mgwater.com to see more.

So, how can one substance be so powerful? Magnesium is important in helping to create energy from our food, in correct Insulin function, in transmitting electrical charge and relaxing muscle.

When we look at Magnesium deficiency and PCOS we find:

* Low levels have been found in patients with Diabetes (who like PCOS women are Insulin Resistant).

* Women with metabolic syndrome and systemic (low grade) inflammation (again, common in PCOS see Chapter8) were found to also be low in Magnesium. Low grade inflammation is thought to be a MAJOR cause of chronic illnesses and death, ie cancer, diabetes, heart attacks, strokes All of the things PCOS women are at greater risk of.

* PCOS women were also found to have significantly lower serum levels of Magnesium"

It's not hard to increase your Magnesium intake.

Some foods high in Magnesium include:

- Red Meat

- Chicken

- Nuts (Almonds, brazil, cashew, hazelnut, pecan etc)

- Tahini

- Dried apples

- Banana

- Licorice

- Legumes

- Spinach

- Parsley

- Dark Chocolate!

- Passionfruit

- Blackberries

- Rasberries

- Sesame seeds

- Dried fruits, such as Apple, Apricots, Dates (just don't overdo it as they can be high in sugar and sulphites)

If you have PCOS, you must make sure you are getting sufficient amounts of Magnesium - and that you can absorb what you eat...
