Magnesium aids menopausal metabolismUtilizing a Combination of Supplements Comprising Boric Acid, Magnesium, Vitamin D3, and Extra Virgin Olive Oil to Improve Metabolism in Menopausal Ovariectomized Rats.
We conducted a study to understand how magnesium, along with other supplements, could influence metabolic health during menopause. Our research involved 42 adult female rats that were either ovariectomized or kept as controls. We divided them into seven groups to assess the effects of various treatments, including magnesium, boric acid, vitamin D3, extra virgin olive oil, and combinations of these supplements.
The results were promising. We observed significant improvements in markers related to inflammation, oxidative stress, and various metabolic parameters when magnesium was included in the treatment plans. Interestingly, the rats receiving magnesium, especially as part of a combined treatment, showed better results than those given individual supplements. This suggests that magnesium could play a valuable role in supporting metabolic health during menopause.
However, it’s worth noting that while magnesium demonstrated beneficial effects, the comprehensive impact of each supplement used individually wasn’t singled out for analysis. Thus, while magnesium appears to contribute positively, we cannot decisively state its specific role in isolation. Overall, our findings hint at a promising therapeutic potential for magnesium in managing menopausal symptoms, particularly when used alongside other beneficial nutrients.
