Abstract
Optimal nutrition is one of the main factors for a normal heart rhythm, which includes all essential macro- (proteins, fats, carbohydrates) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals). Numerous studies have found that magnesium is one of the key minerals for the cardiovascular system. Its deficiency in the diet increases the risk of developing cardiovascular accidents. Hypomagnesemia is associated with unstable electrical repolarization of the heart and contributes to sudden death in heart failure. Replenishment of magnesium deficiency in nutrition, diagnosis of hypomagnesemia, selection of magnesium preparations considering bioavailability are of great importance in the tactics of clinicians. The use of magnesium in complex therapy helps to reduce the risk of developing arrhythmias, including postoperative atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmias and arrhythmias in myocardial infarction.
