Magnesium helps diabetes, insulin resistance, blood sugar control

Type 2 diabetes is a lifestyle disease which along with pre-diabetes affects an estimated 100 million Americans. Both scientists and government agencies say that these conditions are associated with the deficiency of magnesium.

Magnesium deficiency is common in the U.S. and nearly half of all Americans suffer magnesium deficiency. The deficiency is even more common among adults age 70 or old – 80% of them.

In human body, magnesium plays a role in 300 physiological functions. This mineral can not only help synthesize proteins, and metabolize blood sugar and balance levels of other important minerals such as potassium, sodium and calcium.

One of the reasons for magnesium deficiency is the depletion of magnesium in soil. A digestive disorder and some medications such as diuretics can also be an obstacle to the absorption of this mineral.

Magnesium deficiency, or hypomagnesemia, is defined as a condition in a person whose blood magnesium level falls under 1.8 mg/dL.

People with magnesium deficiency can experience a myriad of symptoms including weakness, fatigue, irregular heart-beat, muscle cramps, tremors, anxiety, or insomnia. Other symptoms such as hypertension, migraine headaches, and recurrent microbial infections may indicate magnesium deficiency.

Diabetics are at high risk of magnesium deficiency because insulin resistance affects transportation of this mineral from cells to cells. The risk can be even higher when diabetics use certain medications which cause loss of the mineral to the urine.

Low levels of magnesium are linked to heart disease and osteoporosis and diabetes. Diabetes can cause magnesium deficiency in addition to heart disease, kidney conditions, cataracts, amputations.

Diabetes need to take magnesium supplements, as a study conducted in Israel and published in Nutrients in January 2018. The study shows that diabetics taking 250 mg of elemental magnesium per day for three months improved glycemic response or reduce insulin resistance.

Simply taking magnesium supplements improved insulin sensitivity by 10% and lowered blood sugar by 37%. As an indicator of long term status of diabetes, magnesium supplementation reduces HbA1c levels to 7.96 to 8.32.

Another study conducted in Egypt and published in Medicine in March 2017 shows that chicken with type 1 diabetes had lower blood magnesium.

Then children taking magnesium supplement in a dose of 300 mg of magnesium per day for three months reduced HbA1c from 10.11 to 7.88.

One may not have to take magnesium supplements to boost blood magnesium. Many foods are found high in magnesium including spinach and kale, pumpkin, sunflower seeds, chickpeas, fresh and dry beans, whole grains.

Healthy people need an adequate intake of magnesium too. The U.S. National Institutes of Health recommends a daily intake of 420 mg for men and 320 mg for women.

A few forms of magnesium are available on the market. They are magnesium citrate, magnesium glycinate or magnesium threonate.
