	Magnesium and Magnesium Deficiency
		In their book, they stress that magnesium is one of the most important nutrients, but that the majority of people in Western societies suffer from magnesium deficiency.
		The authors argue that this deficiency is a major cause of both heart disease and diabetes, as well as a significant number of other common ailments which entail a serious risk of dying prematurely.
		The diet of the industrial world is short on magnesium, and this is causing an epidemic of heart disease...

	Diagnose-Me: Condition: Magnesium Requirement
		When deficiency does occur, it is usually due to excessive loss of magnesium in urine, gastrointestinal system disorders that cause a loss of magnesium or limit magnesium absorption, or a chronically low intake of magnesium.
		Magnesium deficiency is strongly implicated as a causative factor in PMS.
		Magnesium deficiency in diabetes is most likely the result of increased urinary magnesium losses secondary to chronic glycosuria.

	Preface to the book, Magnesium Deficiency in the Pathogenesis of Disease by Dr. Mildred S. Seelig
		Among the conditions that increase the risk of magnesium deficiency are (1) metabolic factors that affect the absorption, distribution, and excretion of this mineral; (2) disease and therapy; (3) physiologic states that increase requirements for nutrients; and (4) nutritional imbalances.
		Until magnesium clinical methodology is improved and made available, the importance of correcting magnesium deficiency in man's diet and of preventing intensification of a deficit when needs are increased by physiologic or pathologic processes and drugs will have to be inferential-based on experimental and epidemiologic observations.
		Because magnesium has pharmacologic activities that have been recognized for many years, demonstration of the correction of abnormal acute neurologic and cardiac signs (even though such signs are characteristic of acute magnesium deficiency) are not readily accepted as evidence that magnesium deficiency can contribute to diseases in which such magnesium-responsive signs are seen.
