Magnesium Supplements Could Prevent Bone Fractures in Older People

Image
A recent study published in the European Journal of Epidemiology indicates that magnesium supplements could help prevent bone fractures in middle-aged and older individuals. The study, led by Dr. Setor Kunutsor of the University of Bristol’s Musculoskeletal Research Unit, emphasizes the increasing role of magnesium in bone health . Every year in the United States, there are almost 6 million cases of bone fractures , and 75% of hip , spinal , and forearm fractures occur in people over the age of 65. Calcium and vitamin D are well recognized for their ability to promote bone health , but magnesium is a crucial nutrient that helps the body absorb calcium and process vitamin D . A deficiency of magnesium has been shown to increase the risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures . It is important to maintain adequate magnesium levels to promote bone density , prevent osteoporosis , and promote overall bone health in older individuals. #Magnesium #BoneHealth #PreventFractures #Osteopor...
