Magnesium is the second most abundant element found in human cells. It works to regulate over 300 enzymes in the body! It also aids in many bodily functions. Magnesium plays an important role in food metabolism, the synthesis of fatty acids and proteins, and the transmission of nerve impulsive. Magnesium is one of the seven macrominerals considered essential for the body. Humans need at least 100 milligrams per day to function properly. Getting enough magnesium allows the body to regulate temperature properly, detox, produce energy and form healthy bones and teeth. It’s estimated that over 80% of the population has a magnesium deficiency!

2. Honey
