Objective: To assess magnesium enteral absorption from a magnesium-rich mineral water. Design: Experimental study. Setting: Department of Nuclear Medicine, Brugmann Hospital, Brussels, Belgium. Subjects: Ten healthy male volunteers in the age range 25-42y. Intervention: Each subject completed two sessions in a random order. At one session, they received an oral load of 300 ml of water (containing 1.2 mmo Mg) traced with [sup 28]Mg, and at the other session they received an intravenous injection of [sup 28]Mg, in order to take into account the metabolism of endogenous magnesium. The dietary consumption was further noted on a weekly diary. Results: The mean bioavailability was 59.1% (s.d. ± 13.6). Magnesium absorption and age were significantly inversely correlated (r = -0.68, P = 0.035). Conclusion: Magnesium-rich mineral water is a reliable source of magnesium. Our observation of decreased magnesium absorption with age deserves further investigations. Sponsorship: The study was sponsored by SEV, Bourg la Reine, France. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
