ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The accumulation of visceral fat in obesity is associated with excessive production of proinflammatory adipokines, which contributes to low-grade chronic inflammation state. Moreover, the literature has shown that mineral deficiency, in particular of magnesium, has important role in the pathogenesis of this metabolic disorder with relevant clinical repercussions.OBJECTIVE:
To bring updated information about the participation of hypomagnesemia in the manifestation of low-grade chronic inflammation in obese individuals.METHOD:
Articles published in PubMed, SciELO, LILACS and ScienceDirect, using the following keywords "obesity," "magnesium" and "low grade inflammation."RESULTS:
Scientific evidence suggests that magnesium deficiency favors the manifestation of low-grade chronic inflammation in obese subjects.CONCLUSION:
From literature data, it is evident the participation of magnesium through biochemical and metabolic reactions in protecting against this metabolic disorder present in obesity.
