- Effect of oral magnesium supplementation on physical performance in healthy elderly women involved in a weekly exercise program: a randomized controlled trial
PubMed ID: 25008857
Objective improvements in walking speed and chairâstand time in elderlyâlikely reflect increased functional energy.
- Oral magnesium supplementation improves the metabolic profile of metabolically obese, normal-weight individuals: a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial
PubMed ID: 24830937

PubMed ID: 33184650
Mixedâcation oxybate (contains magnesium oxybate) preserved daytime sleepiness control (ESS) â large, directly relevant reduction in daytime sleepiness/fatigue.
- Physiological aspects of male libido enhanced by standardized Trigonella foenum-graecum extract and mineral formulation
PubMed ID: 21312304
Reported increases in energy/muscle strength subdomains with fenugreek + mineral supplement (magnesium contribution uncertain).
- Red blood cell magnesium and chronic fatigue syndrome
PubMed ID: 1672392
CFS trial: intramuscular magnesium normalized RBC Mg and large proportion reported symptomatic (including fatigue) improvement.
- Effects of oral magnesium therapy on exercise tolerance, exercise-induced chest pain, and quality of life in patients with coronary artery disease
PubMed ID: 12615252
Objective increase in exercise tolerance and intracellular Mg consistent with better functional energy.
- Oral magnesium therapy, exercise heart rate, exercise tolerance, and myocardial function in coronary artery disease patients
PubMed ID: 16825271
VO2max increase and improved LVEF in CAD patients support increased exercise capacity/energy.
Skin health (6)
- The effects of magnesium and vitamin E co-supplementation on wound healing and metabolic status in patients with diabetic foot ulcer: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
PubMed ID: 30693609
Mg+vitamin E reduced diabetic foot ulcer size and improved wound outcomesâdirect skinâhealing evidence (coâsupplement confound).
- Magnesium Supplementation and the Effects on Wound Healing and Metabolic Status in Patients with Diabetic Foot Ulcer: a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial
PubMed ID: 28540570

PubMed ID: 26939522
Topical ceramide+Mg cream improved eczema severity, TEWL and hydration more than emollient or hydrocortisone (Mg part of combination).
- The Efficacy of Magnesium Sulfate (MgSO4) Wet Dressing in Reducing Eyelid Swelling and Bruising after Blepharoplasty: A Randomized, Controlled, and Observer-Blinded Assessment Study
PubMed ID: 37011896
Randomized trial: topical MgSO4 dressings substantially reduced eyelid swelling and ecchymosis after blepharoplasty â direct skin/softâtissue benefit.
- Non-Invasive Imaging for the Evaluation of a New Oral Supplement in Skin Aging: A Case-Controlled Study
PubMed ID: 40411804
Small RCT of a multi-ingredient botanical/vitamin supplement that included Mg produced measurable improvements in facial aging and erythema â Mg may have contributed but not isolated.
