Magnesium absorption takes place in the small intestine, with only 10-60% of the magnesium being absorbed from feedstuff and 70% from mineral substances containing magnesium.

A horse weighing 500 kg stores about 125 mg of magnesium, 75 g of this amount in the skeleton, another 45 g in the heart, muscles and liver. The normal plasma / serum level in horses is 18-24 mg Mg/l or 0.75 - 1.0 mmol Mg/l (Meyer, 1996).

The recommended dietary magnesium supply for horses is 20 mg Mg/kg of body weight per day, corresponding to a maintenance requirement of 10 g Mg/500 kg body weight
