Research studies:
Heart disease:
A study of over 10,000 people in the
An analysis of seven major clinical studies shows that intravenous magnesium reduced the risk of death by 55 percent after acute heart attack. These results were published in the prestigious “British Medical Journal” and the widely read journal “Drugs” source: Teo KK et al., “effects of intravenous magnesium in suspected acute myocardial infraction: overview of randomized trials.” Brit. Med J, vol. 303, pp 1499-1503, 1991.
Diabetes:
Three of the largest studies ever done on the incidence of disease are the Harvard Nurses study of 85,000 women, the Health Professionals follow-up study of 43,000 men, and the Iowa Women’s Health study of 40,000 women. All three studies showed that those people with the highest levels of magnesium intake had the lowest risk of developing diabetes.
Recent studies showed that of 192 women that take 400mg of
magnesium daily for PMS, 95 percent experienced less breast pain and had less
weight gain, 89 percent suffered less nervous tension, and 43 percent had
fewer, headaches. Source: Goldberg B, Alternative Medicine Guild: Women’s
