Magnesium, present in many foods such as dark chocolate, nuts, and green leafy vegetables, helps cells to cope in the body’s circadian rhythm, researchers from the University of Edinburgh and University of Cambridge in the UK said. Circadian rhythm or internal clock is responsible for different body functions like sleeping, waking and temperature, ‘Tech Times’ reported. “Internal clocks are fundamental to all living things. They influence many aspects of health and disease in our own bodies, but equally in crop plants and micro-organisms,” said Gerben Van Ooijen from the University of Edinburgh. Researchers worked on three biological organisms – fungi, algae and human cells. Using molecular analysis, they found levels of magnesium that oscillates as the cells undergo the 24-hour clock. This 24-hour rise and fall oscillation is important to sustain the cell’s energy for the whole day. The presence of magnesium in cells also contributes to its metabolism or the efficiency of cells to convert nutrients into energy within the day. Magnesium also controls the burning of energy whenever the cells biologically need it, researchers said. The findings may help in the development of chronotherapy or the treatment depending on the body’s circadian rhythm and the improvement of various crops that can be harvested in an extended season, they said. “The new discovery could lead to a whole range of benefits spanning human health to agricultural productivity,” said John O’Neill from University of Cambridge. The findings were published in the journal Nature.

Women do need more sleep at night compared to men, a recent study concludes. Researchers from Loughborough University’s Sleep Research Centre studied 210 healthy men and women to better understand sleeping patterns and the links between sleep deprivation and chronic diseases. The study found that women need about 20 minutes more sleep a night than men and that inadequate sleep in women (poor sleep and sleep-related problems) was associated with higher risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes. Hormones are said to play a role in this gender difference, particularly testosterone and oestrogen. Jean Hailes endocrinologist Dr Sonia Davison says women have a lot less testosterone than men and this level decreases from a peak at around the age of 18 years to a low level around age 65 years. Low levels of testosterone have been linked to lower energy levels, fatigue and reduced general wellbeing. "Oestrogen levels fluctuate throughout the menstrual cycle in reproductive-aged women, and will start to fall from the mid to late 40s, with a drastic reduction around menopause," says Dr Davison. "Whenever oestrogen levels are low, for example before and during a period, if breastfeeding, or around menopause, symptoms such as poor sleep and lowered energy levels are commonly reported by women. Whether this ties in with the need for extra sleep in women described in this study needs further exploration."
Conclusion: Vitamin D, C, E and zinc have been found to be effective in the treatment of patients with chronic low back pain.
