MAGNESIUM REGULATES VITAMIN D<br />

Worried that you’re not getting enough vitamin D? Magnesium<br />

may be the key. A study at Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center<br />

in Nashville, Tenn., found that with adequate magnesium, low<br />

vitamin D levels rise and high levels decrease.<br />

“Magnesium deficiency shuts down the vitamin D synthesis<br />

and metabolism pathway,” said lead study author Qi Dai, MD, PhD.<br />

This helps to explain why some people with low vitamin D levels<br />

don’t respond well to supplements, as an estimated 80 percent of<br />

Americans don’t get enough magnesium. In the study, researchers<br />

calculated the magnesium content of people’s diets and added<br />

supplements to meet the recommended dietary allowance (RDA)<br />

of the mineral. Avocados, tofu, chard, dark chocolate, and almonds<br />

are some good food sources of the mineral.<br />

MINUTES<br />

When Seattle teens got 34<br />

minutes extra sleep because<br />

the school day started nearly<br />

an hour later, their grades<br />

improved, often enough to<br />

rise from a B to an A. That<br />

was the result of a study at<br />

the University of Washington<br />

in Seattle. The later schedule<br />

is more in line with teen’s<br />

biological clocks.<br />
