People with type 2 diabetes have a tenfold higher prevalence of hypomagnesemia, which is
suggested to be caused by low dietary magnesium intake, medication use, and genetics …

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major global public health burden, affecting more than
170 million individuals worldwide [1]. Overall, it is estimated that the prevalence of diabetes …

Aims/hypothesis Previous studies have found an association between serum magnesium
and incident diabetes; however, this association may be due to reverse causation, whereby …

Magnesium, potassium, and sodium, cations commonly measured in serum, are involved in
many physiological processes including energy metabolism, nerve and muscle function …

Nutritional genomics has exploded in the last decade, yielding insights—both nutrigenomic
and nutrigenetic—into the physiology of dietary interactions and our genes. Among these …

Favorable associations between magnesium intake and glycemic traits, such as fasting
glucose and insulin, are observed in observational and clinical studies, but whether genetic …

Background: Prospective studies consistently link low magnesium intake to higher type 2
diabetes (T2D) risk. Objective: We examined the association of common genetic variants …

Little is known about whether genetic variation modifies the effect of magnesium (Mg) intake
on two important diabetes risk factors: fasting glucose (FG) and insulin (FI). We examined …

Magnesium ions are essential to the basic metabolic processes in the human body.
Previous genetic studies indicate that serum magnesium levels are highly heritable and a …

Magnesium is an essential mineral for the human body and a cofactor or activator for more
than 300 enzymatic reactions, including blood glucose control and insulin release. Diabetes …
