Trace element magnesium: a key player in hypertension management

Magnesium deficit decreases nitric oxide production and oxidative stress, but calcium efflux in VSMC enhances proliferation, migration, and remodelling. These pathways contribute to cardiovascular disorders, hypertension, insulin resistance, sodium retention, fluid retention, and blood volume. Magne...
