Description

Magnesium has numerous critical roles in human physiology, and its intake is imperative for supporting overall health. It is a cofactor in more than 300 enzymatic reactions that regulate essential functions, including energy production, blood pressure, blood glucose, bone development, and muscle and nerve function.1,2 Magnesium is widely available in foods such as whole grains, nuts and seeds, legumes, and green leafy vegetables.

In the United States, dietary surveys show magnesium intake is consistently below age-specific minimum recommended levels. An analysis of data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) found that nearly half of Americans ingest less magnesium from food and beverages than is recommended.

Because magnesium is ubiquitous and necessary in many metabolic and biochemical cellular processes, insufficient magnesium intake is implicated in a wide range of health concerns. Supplemental magnesium can help ensure optimal intake, yet absorption pathways vary among the different forms, and some types can cause gastrointestinal (GI) distress in those with impaired digestion.

Factors affecting absorption, tolerance, and retention of supplemental magnesium include the status of magnesium stores in the body and the type or form of magnesium ingested.
