Abstract
We performed 11 balance studies to learn the estimated average requirement (EAR) of magnesium (Mg). Magnesium intake was not correlated with Mg balance when all data was used (n = 109). However, Mg intake was correlated with calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) balances. During the analysis, we found a correlation between sodium intake and Ca and Mg balances. After excluding the data of the highest sodium (Na) intake study, Mg intake turned out to be correlated with Mg balance. © 2007 Springer-Verlag London Limited.
