Magnesium deficiency may have links to an increased AFib risk, but studies have not shown the benefits of taking magnesium supplements.
Some research suggests that taking intravenous magnesium, which healthcare professionals administer via the veins, alongside standard AFib treatments could help manage people’s heart rates.
However, the study did not look at magnesium supplements that people can take at home.
Therefore, it is essential to consult a doctor before taking any supplements with AFib.
