The nutrient that can help you stay calm and relaxed

People from all walks of life can experience periods of unrest and tension. Did you know that magnesium is a useful nutrient for keeping your muscles and nerves relaxed? You may also look at your intake of vitamin D, which is also a nutrient that many people get too little of.

In the social media age that we live in, it can be overwhelming to those of all ages who are susceptible to tension and anxiety. Even those of us who are normally immune to such worries can be overwhelmed by some of the news that we get exposed to and the feelings created by the news. It can  also be the nervous strain and tension associated with a long term work overload or other obstacles that can create tension.

Vitamin D is also important for your mood

Another nutrient that is often linked to mood and feelings is vitamin D. In Ireland, we are all likely to be deficient in this essential vitamin due to low levels of sun exposure and low bio-availability of dietary vitamin D. Many people may therefore find it useful to take a supplement of this essential nutrient.
