- Why It Happens: Magnesium is crucial for maintaining a regular heartbeat. Low levels can disrupt electrical activity in the heart, leading to palpitations or irregular rhythms.
- Signs to Watch For: Heart palpitations, skipped beats, or a fluttering sensation in your chest.

- Why It Happens: Magnesium has a calming effect on the nervous system by regulating neurotransmitters like GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid). A deficiency can increase feelings of anxiety and irritability.
