At least 60 % of Americans have a magnesium ( Mg.) deficiency and most are not aware of this since only 1% of Mg. is in the serum where its measured. Mg. is a powerful antioxidant, protects the energy producing machinery, and reduces the potential for hypertension and insulin resistance. I published that correcting a Mg. deficiency may prolong life. (Clin Interv Aging 2012, 7: 51-54.) In Space this deficiency invariably occurs because Mg. is poorly absorbed and the storage sites in bone and skeletal muscles are depleted.
