Magnesium/Mg is essential in the metabolism of vitamin D3, and taking high doses of vitamin D can induce depletion of Mg.

Adequate magnesium supplementation should be considered as an important aspect of vitamin D3 therapy.

RT for awareness
Magnesium is involved in over 300 enzyme reactions and over 600 cellular reactions.

Magnesium is one of essential macrominerals, minerals which humans need to consume in relatively large amounts—100 mg or more—to maintain optimal health.

Recent studies suggested that if a person is magnesium deficient, no amount of Vitam D3 supplement will allow a patient to realize health benefits of adequate Vitam D. Magnesium is a critical factor in making Vitam D bioavailable. Without mag, Vitam D is only stored & not used
