Over 80% of American’s are magnesium deficient and 42% are reported to be Vitamin D deficient. Embarking on a daily supplementation plan is exciting and will offer you incremental improvement in every area of your life including immune support.
A recent research paper published in February 2021, highlights magnesium’s special role in immune support as an assist to Vitamin D and much more.
In the abstract the research paper states:
Magnesium and vitamin D each have the possibility of affecting the immune system and consequently the cytokine storm and coagulation cascade in respiratory and viral infections. Vitamin D is important for reducing the risk of upper respiratory tract infections and plays a role in pulmonary epithelial health. While the importance of vitamin D for a healthy immune system has been known for decades, the benefits of magnesium have only recently been elucidated. Indeed, magnesium is important for activating vitamin D and has a protective role against oxidative stress.
Magnesium deficiency increases endothelial cell susceptibility to oxidative stress, promotes endothelial dysfunction, reduces fibrinolysis, and increases coagulation. Furthermore, magnesium deficient animals and humans have depressed immune responses, which, when supplemented with magnesium, a partial or near full reversal of the immunodeficiency occurs. Moreover, intracellular free magnesium levels in natural killer cells and CD8 killer T cells regulate their cytotoxicity. Considering that magnesium and vitamin D is important for immune function and cellular resilience, a deficiency in either may contribute to cytokine storm in the many respiratory infections.
On tonight’s radio show we’ll talk about magnesium’s special role with vitamin D and its other responsibilities in keeping the body properly energized.
