Symptom #3: Numbness

Besides twitching and cramping, numbness is another possible symptom of low magnesium. Numbness occurs when electrical impulses travelling through nerves do not get to their intended destination or they don’t deliver the intended signal. As a result, the signals don’t produce the desired reaction. This leads to nervous dysfunction which can cause numbness or tingling in the face, hands or feet.

It is worth noting that numbness may be caused by a few other factors and it is also normal to get occasional numbness or tingling. However, if this becomes a recurrent experience, seek a doctor’s advice.
