Magnesium and Better Sleep: How Aura’s Mineral Filter Supports Your Wellbeing

Magnesium is having a moment — and for good reason. It’s a key mineral involved in over 300 biochemical processes in the body, including those related to sleep, mood, digestion, and muscle function. But with the rise of reverse osmosis (RO) water filtration, many UK households are unknowingly removing this vital mineral from their drinking water.

That’s where Aura’s mineral filter comes in — restoring healthy levels of magnesium and other essential minerals, helping you hydrate with more than just clean water.

Why Is Magnesium So Important?

Although magnesium makes up less than 1% of your body’s weight, it’s crucial to overall health. Scientific research highlights its role in:

• Supporting nerve function and brain chemistry
• Regulating sleep patterns and reducing anxiety
• Balancing blood sugar and blood pressure
• Helping muscles relax and contract properly

Insufficient intake may contribute to poor sleep, stress, digestive issues, and even heart rhythm abnormalities. According to experts, up to 20% of women and 10% of men in the UK may not be meeting their daily magnesium needs.

What’s the Connection with Filtered Water?

Advanced reverse osmosis systems, such as those from Aura, are extremely effective at removing impurities — but they also remove beneficial minerals like calcium and magnesium. That’s why Aura’s systems include a post-filtration mineralisation stage that adds back these essential elements for balanced, healthier water.

Mineral-Rich Water and Sleep Health

While clinical evidence about magnesium supplements and sleep remains mixed, anecdotal experiences are overwhelmingly positive. Many individuals report:

• Faster sleep onset and fewer nighttime awakenings
• Improved mood and less anxiety
• Increased energy during the day

Hydrating with water that naturally includes magnesium may contribute to these effects without the need for high-dose pills or unregulated supplements.

Why Aura’s Mineral Filter Is a Smarter Option

Instead of relying on supplements — which may cause side effects or be unnecessary for most people — Aura’s approach is simple: restore minerals naturally lost in the filtration process with every glass of water you drink.

Benefits of Aura’s mineral filter:

• Restores essential minerals (magnesium, calcium)
• Improves taste and softness of RO water
• Supports hydration and electrolyte balance
• Ideal for daily wellness and gentle long-term support

Should You Take Supplements Too?

Not necessarily. Nutritionists recommend focusing on whole-food sources of magnesium such as nuts, seeds, leafy greens, legumes, and whole grains. Aura’s mineral-enhanced water is a complementary way to support your intake throughout the day.

Supplements may be helpful in cases of diagnosed deficiency, but overuse can lead to side effects like nausea or diarrhoea. Always consult your GP before starting high-dose magnesium supplements — especially if you have kidney issues.

Final Thoughts: Mineralised Water, Smarter Hydration

Magnesium may be trending — but it’s far more than a buzzword. With Aura’s mineral filter, you’re not just removing contaminants; you’re actively restoring your water to a more natural, body-friendly state. Enjoy better hydration, better balance, and potentially better sleep — all from your tap.
