Evidence supporting the use of: Magnesium
For the body system: Parathyroid Glands
Synopsis
Source of validity: Scientific
Rating (out of 5): 4
Magnesium has scientific validation for its role in supporting the parathyroid glands and their function within the body's calcium homeostasis system. The parathyroid glands regulate calcium and phosphate metabolism via parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion. Magnesium is essential for normal PTH secretion and action. Hypomagnesemia (low magnesium levels) can impair PTH release and also make tissues less responsive to PTH, leading to disruptions in calcium balance and, in severe cases, hypocalcemia that is resistant to calcium supplementation until magnesium is corrected. Clinical studies and case reports have demonstrated that magnesium supplementation can restore normal PTH secretion and resolve hypocalcemia in patients with magnesium deficiency. While magnesium is not a direct treatment for parathyroid diseases themselves, it is crucial for the normal physiological function of the parathyroid glands. The use of magnesium for parathyroid support is therefore grounded in well-established physiological principles and supported by human evidence, especially in the context of magnesium deficiency. As such, its use is justified by scientific evidence rather than tradition alone.
