Cerebrospinal fluid magnesium

Magnesium is the cation in the second place in the intracellular fluid. Adults contain 20-30 g of magnesium, about 2/3 of which are distributed in bone tissue, and the rest are distributed in muscle and other soft tissues. The plasma magnesium content is very small, while the content of magnesium in striated muscle, heart, liver, kidney, brain and other tissues is 6-10 times that of plasma. Plasma free magnesium accounts for about 2/3, and the other 1/3 combines with protein to bind magnesium. However, only 1/3 of the intracellular magnesium is in a free state, and it is difficult to escape the cells. The daily magnesium requirement of normal people is about 200mg, which comes from food, is absorbed by the small intestine, and is excreted by the kidneys.
