Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

In addition, silicon may affect the absorption, retention or action of other mineral elements (e.g., aluminum, copper, magnesium).

Positive correlations between silicon and magnesium in healthy control, both in the whole group and in male and female subgroups, were noted, while no such effect was observed in OA subjects.

However, a high level of Si (0.05 and 0.075 %) supplementation significantly decreased Mg retention without changing Ca retention.

Although bone mineral composition was not affected (P > 0.05) by Si supplementation, plasma magnesium (P = 0.08) in rats and plasma calcium (P < 0.05) in turkeys were reduced by high levels of Si supplementation.
The antagonistic relations of high Si levels with calcium and magnesium were deemed to be the mechanisms through which high Si imposes its deleterious effects on bone size and strength.

The addition of Si affected the absorption of other metal elements in rice seedlings, including calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg) and manganese (Mn).
The concentrations of Ca and Mg in root and aboveground parts were significantly increased by Si addition under bilateral Cd-stress (Cd-Cd+Si), but Mn concentration was changed with the stress degree of Cd.
