Magnesium... is your mate for healthy digestion
Muscles within the digestive tract, including the intestinal wall, are relaxed by magnesium, which improves digestion, as well as counterbalances stomach acid and advances stools through the intestines.
Even with an adequate diet, some people are at increased risk of magnesium deficiency, including people with digestive disorders, such as celiac disease and chronic diarrhea. Also certain medicines (including some "water pills" and antibiotics) can lower blood magnesium levels. In these situations, take magnesium!
