Magnesium is an important micronutrient that many parts of your body – including your nervous system, your muscles, your heart, your bones and immune system – need in order to function properly.

Most adults in the US do not meet that daily target through their diet. And selecting a supplement is no easy task, as a bewildering number of products can be found on the market.
