Settings and conduct
Sixty patients with diabetic foot ulcer referred to Naghavi Clinic affiliated to Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Kashan, Iran will be selected. Randomization and allocation will be concealed from the researchers and participants until the final analyses are completed. Another person at the Naghavi Hospital affiliated to Kashan University of Medical Sciences, who is not involved in the trial and not aware of random sequences, will assigned the participants to the numbered bottles of capsules.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Non-inclusion criteria: pregnant and breastfed patients; taking magnesium, multivitamin-mineral and antioxidant supplements, and anti- inflammatory agents; patients with history of diseases which influence the development of DFU including chronic trauma; patients with history of diseases which influence the development of diabetic foot ulcer including chronic trauma
Intervention groups
Intervention group: Magnesium capsule, 250 mg oxide magnesium (21 century, USA), once a day, for 12 weeks orally. Control group: Placebo (Barij Essence, Kashan, Iran), once a day, for 12 weeks orally.
Main outcome variables
