Magnesium is one of the most used minerals in the body, therefore it is easy to get deficient causing the opposite of the benefits listed above. Soda, sweat, stress, coffee, alcohol, diuretic drugs (the ones that dehydrate you) cause you to lose magnesium. 

Can I test where my levels are at to confirm if I’m deficient?

It is unfortunately hard to test for because 99% of all magnesium is stored in muscles, bones, and other tissues vs your blood. Unless you’d like to remove a chunk of muscle or bone, you have to let the symptoms guide you.
