Natural Calm Raspberry Lemon Anti Stress Drink

When stress becomes constant in our lives-be it mental, emotional, environmental or physical-the continual state of hypervigilence of our bodies and cells can be detrimental to our health. This is especially true when one is low in magnesium-often the case in today's diet of highly processed foods.

Going through a stressful period without sufficient magnesium can set up a deficit that, if not corrected, can linger, causing more stress and further health problems.

Without sufficient magnesium, the nerve cells cannot give or receive messages and become excitable and reactive. This causes a person to become stressed, highly sensitive and nervous. Feelings of nervousness, irritability and being unable to relax are signs of needing magnesium.

The stress response involves the influx of calcium into cells, resulting in a drastic change in the cells' internal magnesium-to-calcium ratio.

Normal cells contain 10,000 times more magnesium than calcium ions. If the amount of cellular magnesium falls, however, calcium ions flow into the cell. With such an imbalance, calcium puts the cell into a hyperactive state. This can cause muscle contraction and lead to painful cramping. The muscles need magnesium in order to relax.

Natural Calm Raspberry Lemon provides the necessary magnesium in a highly absorbable proprietary blend of magnesium citrate in ionic form, stevia, and natural raspberry and lemon flavors.
