About this study
Official title: The Effects of Magnesium Citrate Supplementation on Hand Grip Strength: A Randomized Control Trial
The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness of magnesium on handgrip strength using the more bioavailable magnesium citrate.
Read the detailed description
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.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
MagnesiumDietary supplement
Magnesium citrate of either 200mg or 400 mg will be taken by the participant with food in the morning.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| 200 mg Magnesium | Active comparator | Participant will take 200 mg of magnesium citrate daily for 4 weeks Receives: Dietary Supplement: Magnesium |
| 400 mg Magnesium | Active comparator | Participant will take 400 mg of magnesium citrate daily for 4 weeks Receives: Dietary Supplement: Magnesium |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Hand grip strength
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.
Measured: change between baseline and 4 weeks
