ues-
tion:
Dear
Bar , now
that calcium is
important to
bone health.
Can you
shed some light on magnesium?
Thanks, Larry.
A
nswer: Dear Larry, the
chemical element Magne-
sium (Mg) is the 11th most
abundant element by mass in the
human body. It typically occurs
as the Mg2+ ion. It is an essential
mineral nutrient and is present in
every cell in every organism.
Given the importance of mag-
nesium to sustaining life, it's
somewhat surprising that
credible sources estimate
that between 70% and
90% of Americans may be
.--.\
magnesium deficient. The
Daily Reference Intake
,(DRI) for magnesium
';' for adults over 18 is ap-
\ proximately 300mg to
I) 400mg per day (varies
with gender and age).
In addition to its
general health benefits,
magnesium aids in the
absorption of calcium and
potassium and is important to
bone/teeth health and develop-
ment. Studies have linked magne-
sium deficiencies to heart disease
and higher cholesterol, suggesting
that supplementation may help in
these areas.
Good dietary sources of mag-
nesium: vegetables, dried fruits,
whole grains, legumes and nuts. I
hope this answers your question.
