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.
On the other hand, there are foods and substances that can greatly inhibit how much magnesium your body takes up. Here are some. Phosphoric acid-containing sodas impair magnesium absorption by forming phosphates, which bind to calcium and magnesium to form an insoluble complex of magnesium, calcium, and phosphate. Cowâs milk, which contains high amounts of phosphorous, inhibits magnesium uptake for the same reason as colas.
