Abstract in brief

  • Magnesium deficiency is an overlooked factor that can contribute to low vitamin D levels, which are linked to cardiovascular disease risk.
  • The process of activating vitamin D in the body depends on magnesium, and higher magnesium intake seems to be associated with better vitamin D status and lower mortality rates.
  • However, the findings are still preliminary because of missing data, potential confounding factors, and unresolved questions about the exact relationship between magnesium, vitamin D, and health outcomes.
