Statins can lead to elevated liver enzymes, which may increase the risk of liver damage. Studies suggest that liver injury can be associated with statins and potent antioxidants like alpha lipoic acid with its anti-inflammatory action is associated with improved liver circulation, hepatoprotective, and therapeutic in liver conditions and disease.

Low or depleted magnesium levels are associated with a higher likelihood of several cardiovascular problems, including arrhythmias, where people with low magnesium have been shown to have 2–4 times higher odds of these rhythm disturbances compared with those with normal levels. Low magnesium is also linked to worsening coronary artery disease, progression of heart failure, and development or aggravation of hypertension, driven by disrupted cardiac electrical stability, vascular function, and electrolyte balance. Even mild magnesium depletion may contribute to higher blood pressure over time, adding to the overall cardiovascular burden, especially in individuals with existing heart disease or multiple risk factors.
Low or depleted magnesium levels are associated with a higher risk of osteoporosis and fractures, with studies linking magnesium deficiency to a 25–35% increased risk of hip, wrist, and spine fractures in some populations. Magnesium deficiency impairs bone mineralization and vitamin D activation, compounding skeletal weakness by disrupting osteoblast function and calcium balance. This is particularly concerning for older adults or those with additional risk factors, where monitoring magnesium status and considering supplementation may help mitigate bone loss.
