Feeling tired due to lack of sleep? Know what is lacking in the body


Published: 11:49 27 April 2026
Not getting enough sleep at night can lead to not only fatigue, but also problems like depression, anxiety, and increased blood pressure. Experts say that not only an uncontrolled lifestyle is behind these problems—magnesium deficiency in the body can also be a major reason.
Studies have shown that people who have enough magnesium in their bodies have a relatively low risk of heart disease and stroke. This important mineral calms the nervous system, improves sleep quality, and helps reduce stress.
Magnesium plays an important role in other functions in the body—
- Controlling blood pressure
Maintaining normal blood sugar levels
Maintaining muscle and nerve function
Boosting immunity
How much does it need? - Magnesium requirements vary by age and gender—
- Women aged 19–30: about 310 milligrams daily
Women over 31: about 320 milligrams
Men aged 19–30: about 400 milligrams
Men over 31: about 420 milligrams
How to fill the deficiency?
Supplements are not always necessary. Magnesium deficiency can be easily filled from regular food. For example—
- Pumpkin seeds
Chia seeds
Almonds and cashews
Peanuts
Spinach
Soymilk
However, if you have long-term insomnia or fatigue, it is important to consult a doctor.
👉 In short, if regular lack of sleep makes you tired and fatigued, then increasing magnesium-rich foods in your diet can be an effective solution.
