When a considerable magnesium deficiency was revealed in blood serum and hair in 28 mentally handicapped males with increased aggression, restlessness, psychomotor excitation and coexisting epilepsia, a 1-month supplementation was administered, which resulted in a considerable improvement in the social functioning in 17 patients. The remaining 11 patients who did not show improvement after the first supplementation, were given the second 2-month supplementation, which resulted in the expected considerable improvement.
