    The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between serum magnesium levels and overweight and obesity in adult women from the AA.HH “Jaime Yoshiyama” in the Ventanilla district during the period from September to December 2019. A quantitative, cross-sectional, and correlational study was conducted. Blood samples were taken from 181 adult women to determine magnesium concentration. The analysis was carried out using descriptive statistics and hypothesis testing, specifically the chi-square test. It was found that 39.8% of the study sample had a normal body mass index, 28.7% were obese, and 31.5% were overweight. Furthermore, 10.5% of the study sample had low magnesium levels, 55.2% had normal levels, and 34.3% had high levels. Consequently, it was concluded that the relationship between serum magnesium levels and overweight and obesity in adult women from the AA.HH “Jaime Yoshiyama” in the Ventanilla district during the period from September to December 2019 was significant, with a p-value < 0.05.
