Abstract
Two-thirds of total body magnesium content is located in the skeleton. Recently, there have been reports that high dietary magnesium intakes are associated with higher bone mineral density. The effect of magnesium supplementation on bone turnover has recently been investigated in young adults. However, the findings from these studies are conflicting. More studies are necessary to better elucidate the role of magnesium in bone health.Entities:
