Over 80 percent of us suffer from at least a low level of a magnesium deficiency, and it can result in leg cramps, insomnia and yes, diabetes. Magnesium is essential for cellular health and is a critical component of over 300 biochemical functions in the body. Magnesium has been shown to also help blood sugar levels. A magnesium supplement can also help lower the risk of type 2 diabetes because magnesium plays a role in glucose metabolism.
