Magnesium

Post by Gabes-Apg »

Progress with research about Magnesium

I am enthused that they are wanting to determine the optimal dietary intake.


Co-author Professor Michael Fenech says chronic magnesium deficiency is likely to disrupt the body's ability to produce energy and power cells, causing accelerated tissue ageing and making people more susceptible to early onset of many diseases.

Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral present in the human body. More than 600 enzymes require it as a co-factor and almost 200 require it to activate critical processes in the body.

"The next step is to determine the optimal dietary intake of magnesium, either through food or supplements and how this could impact the onset or progression of cancer and other chronic diseases," Prof Fenech says..

Thank goodness for Australian researchers. They're actually interested in promoting good health. U.S. researchers are so tightly bonded with big Pharma and insurance companies (because they provide the lion's share of research money) that they are only capable of proving that we all have plenty vitamin D and magnesium, so there's no need to even test for them, let alone supplement them.
