Slowed cognition: There is some evidence that increasing testosterone levels can help with cognition, specifically mental processing speed and memory. If you notice that you have âbrain fog,â slowed thinking speed, and slight dips in memory, this may be part of withdrawal.
Magnesium regulates our electrolyte balance. Within every cell in the body, a proper balance of mineral content must be maintained. Magnesiumâs role in the healthy balance (âhomeostasisâ) of important minerals such as calcium, sodium and potassium affects the conduction of nerve impulses, muscle contraction, and heart rhythms.
Magnesium is one of many electrolytes in your body and normal levels of magnesium are important for the maintenance of heart and nervous system function. Your body regulates magnesium levels by shifting magnesium into and out of cells. A shift of potassium into the cells causes hypomagnesemia. Magnesium can be excreted by your kidneys. Any damage to your kidneys, when they are not working properly, may cause a decrease in magnesium levels.
