> 1.3 mg/dL;

- Are current being treated for hypertension (e.g. ACE inhibitors and diuretics), heart
block (e.g. EKG evidence of left bundle branch block) or heart failure (e.g. treated

Age minimum: 20 Years
Age maximum: 70 Years
Gender: Both
Health Condition(s) or Problem(s) studied
Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus
Intervention(s)
Dietary Supplement: magnesium lactate
Primary Outcome(s)
The magnesium cellular levels will provide a stronger correlation with antiinflammatory indicators compared to the circulating serum levels of magnesium. [Time Frame: One year]
Secondary Outcome(s)
Magnesium supplementation will lower parameters of inflammation in hypomagnesemic diabetic patients. [Time Frame: One year]
