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 a known modulator of calcium, competing with calcium for entrance into cells and keeping many cellular processes in balance. 1  The effect of magnesium on blood vessels is one of dilation, whereas calcium promotes contraction. 2  Magnesium is also thought to antagonize calcium promotion of blood clotting.
