A lack of magnesium can lead to many issues. Preliminarily, muscle cramping will result. If the deficiency is chronic however, issues like osteoporosis can develop and eventually cardiac arrest or pulmonary failure.

Is magnesium a SAFE VITAMIN?

Magnesium is a mineral, not a vitamin. It is essential to good health, but like everything else, too much is bad. It's the Goldilocks Principle; too much, too little, and "just right". The "just right" amount for magnesium is about 400 milligrams per day depending on age and weight, somewhat less for children. Magnesium is found in most green leafy vegetables and nuts.
