MAGNESIUM
General information about magnesium:
Magnesium (Mg) is a silver-white metal and is generally used as an alloying agent. The most used alloy is magnesium-aluminum alloy. Its chemical symbol is '' Mg '', atomic weight is 24,312 and atomic number is 12. It is one of the lightest metals and has gained importance with this feature. Its melting point is 650 degrees and its boiling point is 1090 degrees. Powdered magnesium is easily ignited, its flame is bright.
History:
Magnesium as sulphate was first found in 1695. This salt, which is found by boiling a mineral water in Epsom, has been used as a medicine for many years. In 1808 Sir H. Davy first impure magnesium; In 1829 Antoine Bussy obtained large amounts of pure magnesium. Bussy used anhydrous magnesium chloride as the starting material. Pure magnesium was obtained from electrolysis of molten magnesium chloride in 1852. It was obtained in commercial scale with the "Bunsen electrolytic cell" developed in Germany in 1866.
Magnesium and nature:
The richest source of magnesium in the world is sea water. Mineral rocks and asbestos are also rich in magnesium. Approximately 60% of the magnesium in our body is found in the structure of bones and teeth. It is effective in more than 300 biochemical reactions in our body. With the execution of muscle and nerve functions, providing bone strength, maintaining the regularity of the heart rhythm; takes part in energy metabolism and protein synthesis. The amount of magnesium we need to take daily is between 350 - 500 mg. Regular magnesium intake is important because the body has a magnesium reserve that must be constantly replenished.Although there is a wide variety of magnesium-containing foods, the magnesium amounts in all these foods alone are not sufficient to meet the magnesium need. For this reason, it is important to consume a variety of fruits, vegetables and cereals throughout the day to meet the magnesium need. Magnesium is one of the building blocks of chlorophyll, so it is abundant in green leafy plants. Nuts, grains and seafood are also foods rich in magnesium.
