“…Dietary Mg is mainly absorbed in the small intestine. The active form of vitamin D has been shown to stimulate intestinal Mg absorption [5], which may partly explain depressed Mg absorption reported in CKD patients with a deficiency in active vitamin D [29]. Schmulen et al previously showed that the administration of vitamin D receptor activators enhanced intestinal Mg absorption in CKD patients [30].…”

“…8,11 Mg 2ϩ absorption from the small bowel occurs predominately in a paracellular manner. 12,13 Given the appropriate driving force, significant paracellular absorption can also take place in the colon. 12 The kinetics of this movement are governed by active absorption of sodium (Na ϩ ) followed by water.…”

“…[3][4][5] Mg 2ϩ homeostasis involves the kidney, small bowel, and bone. In the gastrointestinal tract, Mg 2ϩ absorption occurs primarily in the jejunum and ileum by both a passive paracellular mechanism and an active transport process 8,9 ; however, most evidence suggests that Mg 2ϩ is absorbed mainly by ionic diffusion and "solvent drag" resulting from the bulk flow of water. At low intraluminal concentrations, Mg 2ϩ is absorbed primarily through the active cellular route and, with increasing concentrations, through the paracellular pathway.…”
