Fasting plasma concentration of magnesium were measured by colorimetric method using kit of Randox England in sixty non-insulin dependent diabetics and forty non-diabetic subjects. Plasma concentration of magnesium were lower in non-insulin dependent diabetic subjects P<0.01. Moreover, concentration of magnesium were lower in females as compared to males in non-insulin dependent diabetic subjects. It may be suggested that supplementation of the diet with soluble fibre and magnesium salts if hypomagnesemia is demonstrated, is recommended.
