4. Dizziness
Have you ever stood up to fast and gotten dizzy? This is something that happens to just about everyone at some point in time in their lives. While this happening every once in awhile is nothing to be concerned about, if it happens to you quite often there is a chance that you have a magnesium deficiency.
If you are truly deficient in magnesium, the dizziness will typically not go away on its own and may even last an entire day or longer without any type of relief. It can be difficult for your doctor to diagnose a magnesium deficiency based on simply being dizzy. For this reason, low levels of magnesium are often overlooked when attempting to fix the issue. A low level of magnesium may cause similar symptoms to vertigo, where you not only feel dizzy, but also off balance. If you have been experiencing frequent bouts of dizziness, it could be a sign that your magnesium levels are low.
