MITOCHONDRIA        The Impact of Magnesium on Intracellular Structures and Function

                                                                     Magnesium Alters the Rate and Characteristics of Calcium Uptake
 

 "Once we understood Mitochondrial functions, it was
 clear that developing a method by which we could
 measure tissue magnesium, calcium, potassium, and
 others, was a necessity."

 Magnesium alters the rate and characteristics of
 calcium uptake in cardiac mitochondria therefore
 protecting the high-energy state of cardiac
 mitochondria.

 In addition magnesium helps potassium get into cells
 and in principle prevents cardiac arrhythmias or irregular
 heartbeats.
