Why are Zinc and Magnesium so important?

[TsarTsar444]

And how much of a dose of zinc is enough for the day. I have been taking 10mg zinc and 375mg magnesium for days and have noticed my mood being somewhat better, being more calm, more motivated, less stressed, clearheaded and my sex drive has gone up, also my sperm became very thick. So what do these two actually do to you and how important are they

Magnesium depletion leads to high cortisol, specially if you're lifting.

zinc is i
ESSENTIAL for imune system
and important for cell growth. So no muscle gains for Gymmaxxers if they are low on zinc.

Zinc = 30-50mg
Magnesium = 600-900 (if you exercise)

Do you take them at the same time? You're not supposed to do that, apparently, they make each other not work properly

No, I never take my Magnesium with my other supplements. Usually wait at least an hour.
