Kidney stones are more common in men than women, and it is estimated that one in ten men will suffer from them at least once in their life. Although the cause of kidney stones is multifactorial and individual, some modifiable risk factors have been identified, including insufficient fluid intake, high consumption of oxalate-containing foods, and high consumption of animal products. Additionally, magnesium citrate supplementation can help people prone to kidney stone formation.
Magnesium citrate is one of the most common forms of magnesium supplementation. Magnesium citrate is a salt complex that requires stomach acid to break down and release the magnesium ion. It is considered a cost-effective and digestively well-tolerated form of supplemental magnesium, with greater bioavailability than magnesium oxide. That being said, perhaps one of the most desirable reasons to supplement with magnesium citrate, aside from its cost-effectiveness and tolerability, is its role in preventing kidney stone formation.
Citric acid has been found to prevent the formation and growth of calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate crystals. This is why people with a history of calcium oxalate or phosphate stones may prefer supplementation with magnesium citrate rather than chelated magnesium sources. Additionally, magnesium supplements in forms other than citrate have been shown to reduce urinary oxalate excretion when taken with meals and may also help regulate systemic inflammatory processes when administered to correct a deficiency state.
