镁摄入量在代谢综合征中的重要性已被越来越多地认识到。镁是一种必需的矿物质,对人体的许多新陈代谢功能至关重要。摄入镁的主要饮食来源包括全谷物、豆类、坚果和绿叶蔬菜。动物研究表明,镁在葡萄糖稳态和胰岛素的分泌和作用中起着关键作用。实验和临床研究表明,镁摄入量可能与高血压和2型糖尿病的风险成反比,并可能降低血甘油三酯,增加高密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平。本综述的目的是总结镁与代谢综合征相关的流行病学数据,并探讨其可能的机制。
The importance of magnesium intake in relation to the metabolic syndrome has been increasingly recognized. Magnesium is an essential mineral, critical for a number of metabolic functions in the human body. The major dietary sources of magnesium intake include whole grains, legumes, nuts, and green leafy vegetables. Animal studies indicate a pivotal role of magnesium in glucose homeostasis and insulin secretion and action. Experimental and clinical studies suggest that magnesium intake may be inversely related to the risk of hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus, and may decrease blood triglyceride and increase high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. The purpose of this brief review is to summarize the epidemiologic data relating magnesium to the metabolic syndrome and to discuss the potential mechanisms.
