Completed

• Conditions: Stress Physiology
• Interventions: Dietary Supplement: Placebo; Dietary Supplement: Magnesium

• Registration Number: NCT03203096
• Lead Sponsor: Protina Pharmazeutische GmbH

Brief Summary

This study aims to determine how a 6-week magnesium supplementation with 400 mg magnesium from magnesium citrate/magnesium oxide affects stress parameters in students in exam preparation.

Detailed Description

The examinations are carried out in 70 students in exam preparation (6 weeks before exam). The target parameters are determined in blood and 24h-urine. Blood sampling takes place at confinement, after 3 weeks and at the end of the study (week 6). In addition, heart rate variability is determined.
