Magnesium content, human body

The content of magnesium in the body of an adult is about 25-40 g. This accounts for about 60% of the content of the skeleton. The highest concentrations of magnesium in soft tissues are found in the pancreas, liver and skeletal muscles. Blood and extracellular fluids contain only 1% of the total amount of magnesium in the body. Calcium is quantitatively the major mineral component in the human body. The total amount is about 1500g, with 99% of this being in bones and teeth as calcium phosphate. [Pg.430]
