Can you take magnesium and zinc together ?5 answersYes, magnesium and zinc can be taken together. Both minerals have been shown to have beneficial effects in various contexts. In the context of bipolar disorder (BD), studies have found that low levels of magnesium and zinc may play a role in the pathogenesis of the disease. In the treatment of depression, both magnesium and zinc have demonstrated antidepressant properties and have been shown to enhance the efficacy of conventional antidepressants. Additionally, zinc and magnesium supplementation have been found to be effective in reducing smoking and nicotine addiction. The mechanisms by which magnesium and zinc exert their effects involve modulation of neurotransmitters and brain systems activity. Therefore, taking magnesium and zinc together may have synergistic effects in improving mood disorders and reducing addictive behaviors.
