    AbstractIt is reported that shortage of oral magnesium intake increase the incidence of diabetes. In addition, magnesium replacement therapy improves insulin resistance and glycemic control. Low levels of magnesium in the venous blood induce the disturbances of auto-phosphylation on the insulin receptor and deteriorate insulin resistance. Since magnesium is closely related to evolution and development of metabolic syndrome including diabetes mellitus and so on, magnesium is expected as potentially effective ingredient of drug therapy in the future perspectives.
