Diabetes insipidus is a rare disorder that occurs when a person's kidneys pass an abnormally large volume of urine that is insipidâdilute and odorless. In most people, the kidneys pass about 1 to 2 quarts of urine a day. In people with diabetes insipidus, the kidneys can pass 3 to 20 quarts of urine a day.
A RealAge answered. Government guidelines suggest 420 milligrams (mg) per day for men, 320 mg for women. We recommend that both men and women aim to get 400-500 mg of magnesium per day. It may be tough to get all the magnesium you need from food, so top up your daily intake with a multivitamin that contains at least 100 mg of magnesium.
Until you know how much magnesium supplementation you will need, you should start out with low dose tablets, or one of the Powdered Supplements that you can easily increase in increments of about 100 mg at a time.o, follow the RDA above and the first day, start with either 300 mg or 400 mg per day in AT LEAST two divided doses â one in the morning and one in the afternoon or evening. You can take your magnesium either on an empty stomach if it doesnât bother you, or with food if it does.
