Eine neue klinische Studie legt nahe, dass Magnesiumpräparate Darmbakterien steigern, die dazu beitragen, die Entwicklung von Dickdarmkrebs für manche Menschen je nach Genen und Geschlecht zu blockieren. Magnesiumpräparate erhöhen Darmmikroben, die Vitamin D im Darm ohne Sonnenlicht synthetisieren, und hemmen Darmkrebs lokal.

A new clinical trial suggests **magnesium supplements may boost gut bacteria that help block the development of colon cancer – but only for some people, depending on their genes and sex**.

New research led by the Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) has demonstrated, by way of a clinical trial, that magnesium supplements increase gut bacteria that can inhibit the growth of colorectal cancer.

The current study reveals that **magnesium supplementation also increases the gut microbes which have been shown to synthesize vitamin D in the gut without sunlight and locally inhibit colorectal cancer development**.

Magnesium glycinate was used, for those interested
