10 Side Effects of Magnesium
Magnesium Side Effect #10: Death
The most serious of all side effects, death can actually be caused by extreme intake of magnesium. However, this is extremely unlikely and would only occur when a person has been using very high doses of magnesium for an extremely long period of time.
Death would likely arise as a combination of the other side effects. If you’re experiencing slow or absent breathing in combination with cardiac arrest and muscle fatigue, you might not be able to call for the help that you’d need. In the wrong situation, this could be fatal.
