Multi-element Analysis of Brain Regions from South African Cadavers.

In conclusion, this is the first article to report the trace element concentrations of brain regions from a South African population. Low magnesium levels in the brain may be linked to a dietary deficiency, and migraines, depression and epilepsy have been linked to low magnesium levels. Future research should be directed to increase the dietary intake of magnesium. PMID: 32361883 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
