    The objective was to assess the effect of magnesium intake on blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes. This study is descriptive in nature, and the systematic review was conducted following the guidelines proposed by PRISMA. A systematic review was carried out by analyzing eight databases of studies published in Spanish, English, and Portuguese between 2006 and 2015. Thirty original articles were found, of which five were selected for analysis according to the inclusion criteria. The review shows that magnesium plays an important role in blood glucose control and results in clinically significant improvement in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Serum magnesium levels decrease as glucose levels increase in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. After reviewing each of the selected studies, we can conclude that magnesium intake is effective in controlling blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes.
