Research has established a significant relationship between hypertension and magnesium deficiency. Research on over 70, 000 people at Harvard university revealed that high magnesium intake is associated with healthy blood pressure levels. Magnesium relaxes smooth muscles in the walls of the vessels which contributes to lowering blood pressure.
A deficiency of magnesium in the body predisposes it to the risk of hypertension. Increased blood pressure can further deteriorate the cardiac health of a person. Research conducted in Minnesota revealed that women with adequate magnesium levels have a 70% less chance of developing hypertension.
