Mg supplementation appears to have a beneficial role and improves glucose parameters in people with diabetes and also improves insulin-sensitivity parameters in those at high risk of diabetes
Although higher dietary intakes of magnesium ( Mg ) seem to correspond to lower diabetes incidence , research concerning Mg supplementation in people with or at risk of diabetes is limited .
Thus , we aim ed to investigate the effect of oral Mg supplementation on glucose and insulin-sensitivity parameters in participants with diabetes or at high risk of diabetes compared with placebo .
Effects of oral magnesium supplementation on plasma lipid concentrations in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
We evaluated the effects of oral magnesium supplementation on plasma lipid concentrations in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus . Twenty-six persons with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus received 4.5 g magnesium pidolate/d for one month , and 17 persons received placebo . Before and at the end of the treatment period cholesterol concentration , triglycerides , LDL cholesterol , HDL cholesterol , and plasma and erythrocyte magnesium were evaluated . Chronic magnesium supplementation produced a significant reduction of plasma cholesterol and LDL cholesterol , and an increase of HDL cholesterol . These results suggest that oral supplementation of magnesium may be useful in the treatment of hyperlipidaemia in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
