Studies show magnesium supplements may lower CRP levels, reducing inflammation—a key factor in effectively managing chronic health risks.

Feeling stressed? Your body might be craving magnesium! Often overlooked, magnesium is like a chill pill for our body's stress response.

  The researchers of the following study examined the effects of magnesium (Mg) supplementation on C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, a marker of inflammation (Mazidi M, et.al., 2018).   They conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials and found that Mg supplementation led to a significant reduction in...

This research examined the association between dietary magnesium intake and brain volumes (Alateeq K, et.al., 2023). The participants were between the ages of 40 and 73 years old. On average, higher baseline dietary magnesium intake was associated with larger brain volumes (gray matter; left hippocampus; and right hippocampus).   The...

  The purpose of the following study was to analyze the effects of magnesium supplementation in preventing muscle damage in professional cyclists taking part in a 21-day cycling stage race (Cordova A, et al., 2019). 18 male professional cyclists from two teams were participating in the research. They were divided...

  C-reactive protein (CRP) is an inflammatory marker. The test for highly sensitive C-reactive protein is also a test used to evaluate the risk for cardiovascular disease. In the following study the researchers investigated magnesium’s effect on CRP (Mazidi M, et.al., 2018), 8 studies were analyzed, and the results showed...

  Magnesium is important for activating vitamin D and has a protective role against oxidative stress, both are important for a healthy immune response (DiNicolantonio JJ, O'Keefe JH, 2021). Vitamin D is also important for reducing the risk of upper respiratory tract infections. Magnesium deficiency increases endothelial cell susceptibility to...
