Magnesium May
Benefit Blood Pressure in Hypertensives
June 2009
Supplemental
magnesium may reduce blood pressure in people with high blood
pressure, but seemingly normal magnesium levels, says a new study from Korea.
On the other hand,
the supplements had no effect on the blood pressure
measurements of normo-tensive individuals, according to findings
published in Nutrition,
Metabolism and Cardiovascular Disease.
"These findings
suggest that magnesium supplementation may help prevent
the progression of hypertension in normo-magnesemic non-diabetic
overweight
people with higher BP, although mechanisms of counter-regular
preventing
further BP increase remain to be elucidated," wrote the researchers
from
Pusan National University.
The study adds to
findings from epidemiological studies, which reported that
more magnesium, potassium and calcium may reduce the risk of
hypertension in
certain populations.
High blood pressure
(hypertension), defined as having a systolic and
diastolic blood pressure great than 140 and 90 mmHg, is a major risk
factor for
cardiovascular disease.
Since very little is
known about how magnesium may affect blood pressure in
healthy individuals, the researchers recruited 155 people to take part
in a
double-blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized trial. The subjects, who
had an
average BMI of 23 kg/m2, were randomly assigned to receive either daily
supplements of 300 mg of elemental magnesium in the magnesium oxide
form or
placebo for 12 weeks.
At the end of the
study, no significant differences were observed between
the magnesium or placebo groups. However, when the researchers looked
specifically at hypertensives, significant decreases in both systolic
and
diastolic blood pressure were observed in the magnesium group (17.1 and
3.4
mmHg, respectively), compared to placebo (6.7 and 0.8 mmHg,
respectively).
