Blog Insight #22: How much magnesium do you really need to stay strong and battle-ready?

Imagine being a Viking, setting sail at dawn, axe in hand, eyes on the horizon. Now imagine doing that... while cramping, exhausted, moody, and unfocused. Doesn't sound too glorious, does it?

And yet, this is what your body goes through when it's low on magnesium — one of the most essential minerals, quietly fueling over 300 biochemical reactions in your system. From muscle function and nerve transmission to mood regulation and energy production — magnesium is your silent shield in the everyday battles of life.

🔎 The numbers don’t lie:
Up to 60% of people don’t get enough magnesium daily. That’s like sending half your crew to raid with empty swords.

So, how much do you need to keep your inner warrior in shape?

  • ⚔️ Men: 400–420 mg per day

  • 🛡️ Women: 320 mg per day

  • 🏋️ Physically active individuals: up to 500 mg per day

And if you're drinking coffee like it’s mead, constantly stressed, or training hard — your magnesium needs go even higher. That’s when food alone might not cut it.

💡 Viking Wisdom Tip: Supplementing with magnesium isn't a luxury — it's a strategy. Because without enough of it, your body starts falling apart faster than a wooden shield in a storm.

Choose wisely. Fuel your body like a warrior. And never underestimate the power of the “silent mineral.”
