简要总结
The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness of magnesium on handgrip strength using the more bioavailable magnesium citrate.
详细描述
In this single-blind, randomized trial, participants will take a daily dose of either 200 or 400 milligrams of magnesium citrate supplement for four weeks, perform three separate handgrip strength tests using a dynamometer, complete a demographics questionnaire, a physical activity questionnaire, and a compliance log.

主要结局
Hand grip strength
时间窗: change between baseline and 4 weeks
Participants will perform three separate handgrip strength tests using a Jamar Plus digital hand dynamometer, (Sammons Preston, Bolingbrook, Illinois). In each test, participants will do three trials resting for 15 seconds between trials, the average of the three trials will be recorded. To perform the hand grip strength test, the participant will hold the dynamometer in their dominant hand, with the arm at a right angle, and with the elbow by the side of the body. The participant then squeezes the hand dynamometer with maximum isometric effort for at least five seconds. Participants are required to not move any other part of the body and are encouraged to use maximum effort.
