Summary

This four-arm randomized controlled trial was designed to study the effects of magnesium supplements (total daily dose: 450 mg elemental magnesium) on vascular stiffness in healthy overweight and slightly obese men and women. In addition, the effects of magnesium supplements on blood pressure and gut microbiota will be evaluated. Three groups will receive magnesium supplements (magnesium oxide, magnesium citrate or magnesium sulphate) and one group will receive a placebo.
