Magnesium supplementation enhances mTOR signalling to facilitate myogenic differentiation and improve aged muscle performance

This cohort study investigated the effects of magnesium supplementation on muscle performance and myogenic differentiation in older adults. It found that magnesium supplementation enhanced mTOR signaling, which is essential for muscle protein synthesis, leading to improved muscle strength, function, and tissue regeneration in individuals aged 60-75. The supplementation significantly improved
