All About Minerals: Magnesium: Maternal first-trimester diet and childhood bone mass

By Kyle J. Norton.


Magnesium is the eleventh most abundant element by mass in the human body. The adult body content is 25 g distributed in the skeleton and soft tissues. The chemical is essential in manipulating important biological polyphosphate such as ATP, DNA, and RNA and in functionming enzymes(a).



Magnesium: Maternal first-trimester diet and childhood bone mass

In the study to assess the association of maternal first-trimester dietary intake during pregnancy with childhood bone mass, showed that higher first-trimester maternal protein, calcium, and phosphorus intakes and vitamin B-12 concentrations were associated with higher childhood bone mass, whereas carbohydrate intake and homocysteine concentrations were associated with lower childhood bone mass (all P-trend < 0.01). Maternal fat, magnesium intake, and folate concentrations were not associated with childhood bone mass. In the fully adjusted regression model that included all dietary factors significantly associated with childhood bonemass, maternal phosphorus intake and homocysteine concentrations most-strongly predicted childhood bone mineral content (BMC) [β = 2.8 (95% CI: 1.1, 4.5) and β = -1.8 (95% CI: -3.6, 0.1) g per SD increase, respectively], whereas maternal protein intake and vitamin B-12 concentrations most strongly predicted BMC adjusted for bone area [β = 2.1 (95% CI: 0.7, 3.5) and β = 1.8 (95% CI: 0.4, 3.2) g per SD increase, respectively(7).
