Magnesium is a definite metal. Magnesium is one of the most abundant elements on the face of the earth. It is the eighth most abundant element on earth.
Magnesium is necessary to complete more than 300 biochemical reactions in the human body. Its also used in flashbulbs, electronics, fireworks, flares, incendiary bombs, and used in making airplanes.

Magnesium was discovered by Joseph Black in 1755. He discovered it by examining two compounds of magnesia and lime, which some people thought were the same things but he discovered were different and that magnesium was its own compound.

Magnesium is found in seawater, food, and your own body. Over a hundred different minerals hold magnesium. Over a hundred different minerals hold magnesium. Dolomite and magnesite are the two minerals that have the highest amount of magnesium. It can also be found in steel and aluminum since it is the most commonly used metal to create these two man made products. Electronic products like cell phones, computers, fire starters, and old flashlight bulbs all contain magnesium. Magnesium is very reactive so it is almost never found in its purest form. Therefore, it is commonly found in an evolved state.
Magnesium is one of the most important elements because it helps treat many disorders. Magnesium is used to treat attention deficit disorder, anxiety, chronic fatigue syndrome, Lyme disease, fibromyalgia, diabetes, kidney stones, migraine headaches, weak bones, altitude sickness, asthma, and helps prevent hearing loss. Athletes also use magnesium to increase energy and endurance. People also use it for skin treatment and for a faster healing process. Magnesium burns at high temperatures with a brilliant white light which makes it popular for fireworks. For future uses, it can be used on cars. This can help because if they use more magnesium alloy on cars the cars will be less weight and be more efficient on gas. This makes this element more important than it already is, due to the rising price on gas.

yes magnesium does alot for people but none of those things are essential or needed at all.
Couldn't we just make airplanes out of other materials?
True, none of these are necessities... But how do you get magnesium by itself or how do you get it in nature?
It does a lot more than being used to build planes Patty..... IT IS VITAL FOR HUMAN LIFE. It makes 300 biochemical reactions in the human body. Did you hear that Jordan? If you want to see for your self, it is located in the second paragraph.
You are all asking questions that are already listed in our blog..... Read the material first before asking questions that were already answered.They are all irrelevant. Thank you for embarressing yourselves. Can you read?
the body needs more than one element to survive.
Couldn't the presence of magnesium cause health problems when combined with other medications
When taken in very large amounts, magnesium is UNSAFE. Large doses cause too much magnesium to build up in the body, causing serious side effects including an irregular heartbeat, low blood pressure, confusion, slowed breathing, coma, and death.
Consuming larger doses of magnesium containing medications can lead to uncomfortable side effects, such as diarrhea and abdominal cramping. Nobody likes diarrhea.
Except for you Kaylee... You like diarrhea.
Especially when corn's involved...
such personal information should not be shared! although its my partners favorite (Corey)
