Magnesium helps keep calcium in balance within the
system. Magnesium helps put calcium into our bones, preventing
osteoporosis, and Magnesium helps remove Calcium from our soft
tissues eliminating some forms of arthritis. Magnesium does this
by suppressing PTH and stimulating calcitonin. A magnesium deficiency will prevent this chemical action from
taking place in our bodies, and no amount of calcium can correct it.
While magnesium helps our body absorb and retain calcium, too much
calcium prevents magnesium from being absorbed.
The thinking behind this is that magnesium aids in metabolizing
carbohydrates and amino acids, improves bone growth, and regulates body
pH—all of which are significant. A deficiency of magnesium is known to
lower the ability of the body to absorb and use calcium and
phosphorus—and these are the two primary bone-building minerals.
Magnesium also helps synthesize certain factors contained in synovial
fluid. Synovial fluid the thick, straw colored substance found in small amounts in joints, bursae, and tendon sheaths. This is important. In addition, magnesium inhibits the production
of a strange enzyme, called hydraluronidase. Known as the "spreading
factor," this substance has the ability to destroy synovial fluid and,
consequently, the connective tissue itself.
What is the best way to get extra magnesium?
Eating
a variety of whole grains, legumes, and vegetables (especially
dark-green, leafy vegetables) every day will help provide recommended
intakes of magnesium and maintain normal levels. Increasing dietary intake of magnesium can often restore
mildly depleted magnesium levels. However, increasing dietary intake of
magnesium may not be enough to restore very low magnesium levels to
normal.
Oral magnesium supplements combine magnesium with another substance such as a
salt. Magnesium supplements in order of decreasing magnesium content are
magnesium oxide, magnesium carbonate and magnesium sulfate.
Magnesium has also been shown to play a role in controlling blood pressure
and in diabetes.
