🤔 Why Might Someone Show Low Magnesium Wellness Patterns?

This wellness report does not measure or diagnose a clinical deficiency. Shifts in magnesium-related wellness patterns may appear for general reasons such as:

• Lower dietary intake

Eating fewer magnesium-rich foods like greens, nuts, or whole grains.

• Digestive balance

General digestive factors — including occasional discomfort, changes in gut wellness, or low stomach acid — may influence how well magnesium is absorbed from food.

• Increased daily demand

Stress, activity, or lifestyle patterns may increase how quickly the body uses magnesium.

• Routine medications

Certain medications may influence magnesium balance or excretion.

• Lifestyle factors

Higher caffeine, alcohol, or sweating can increase magnesium loss.
