Magnesium is an essential mineral for optimal metabolic function. Research has shown that the mineral content of
magnesium in food sources is declining, and that magnesium depletion has been detected in persons with some chronic
diseases. This has led to an increased awareness of proper magnesium intake and its potential therapeutic role in a
number of medical conditions. Studies have shown the effectiveness of magnesium in eclampsia and preeclampsia,
arrhythmia, severe asthma, and migraine. Other areas that have shown promising results include lowering the risk of
metabolic syndrome, improving glucose and insulin metabolism, relieving symptoms of dysmenorrhea, and alleviat-
ing leg cramps in women who are pregnant. The use of magnesium for constipation and dyspepsia are accepted as
standard care despite limited evidence. Although it is safe in selected patients at appropriate dosages, magnesium may
cause adverse effects or death at high dosages. Because magnesium is excreted renally, it should be used with caution
in patients with kidney disease. Food sources of magnesium include green leafy vegetables, nuts, legumes, and whole
grains. (Am Fam Physician. 2009;80(2):157-162. Copyright ? 2009 American Academy of Family Physicians.)
