3 Mechanisms for Magnesium Deficiency

Over 45% of the US population is deficient in magnesium due to:
1. Decreased consumption of green chlorophyll-containing vegetables,
2. Decreased absorption,
3. Increased excretion. Some magnesium supplements have better magnesium bioavailability than others.

I suffered from severe anxiety for most of my life. While in a hospital, a nurse told me my magnesium levels were very low. I started supplementing with magnesium citrate when I got home. About 2 weeks later my anxiety faded and my life completely changed.

LOOOVE her and her super dense info, with actual mechanisms. For me, it's EXTREMELY motivating to eat healthier when I understand WHY. The mechanisms tying exactly what I eat or don't eat to direct health effects. When you don't know, it's like this black box, and you subconsciously end up thinking, "Ah it's not that bad" because you don't notice substantial immediate effects. Information brings the true cost-benefit into focus, and into the short term. e.g. chlorophyll's central atom is magnesium. THAT's why dark leafy greens are good. Not just this "eat dark leafy greens because i heard it all my life and other people around me repeat the same thing" nonsense.

[@periteu]

Other thing that motivates me is to obtain a specific miligrams of certain micronutrient by eating specific grams of spinach and not just eat a lot of spinach.

Right, and most things are like that regardless of context. They figure most people don't like to or care to digest detailed information. It's why doctors never explain anything to you. It's like they have the mentality that if anything is acutely wrong, they'll let you know.

I saw some research that found that around 50% of adults in the US are deficient in magnesium, largely because of depleted farmlands, and what the symptoms are, such as migraines, insomnia, muscle tightness. I then looked up the best version to take. Magnesium L-Threonate is the best one to get magnesium into the brain. Mag-oxide is not absorbed by the gut, it's only useful as a laxative.

Thank you Rhonda for an informative video on magnesium deficiency. I like the way you put it, that our bodies are starved for magnesium, and the minimums really are just the bare minimum to survive. I have been supplementing magnesium for a few years now.

Hi Dr. Rhonda, I recently purchased a magnesium supplement and just now found this video. The supplement I purchased is Magnesium Bisglycinate Chelate.... The producing company touts that it has improved bioavailability over the oxide and citrate forms. Have you come across this? Thanks for all you do! I'm glad I came across your work on Joe Rogans podcast.

[@fidesedquivide3486]

The one you bought doesn't cause you have loose stool. Magnesium is must be attached to something else and often the "carrier" is not easily absorbed, hence diarrhea the next morning. Glycenate chelated Magnesium is bined with anemioacid, doesn't cause discomfort, and helps people sleep better too. I have been taking it for years since when my son started his med school 7 years ago and told mom that about 80% or more Americans are deficient in this nutrient. Michael Polan(?) has a book about our food deficient in just about everything nutricious compared to their ancestors.

magnesium threonate improves the amount of magnesium in the brain by about 5% if you supplement it, magnesium bisglycinate about 2,5% and magnesium citrate reduces it actually by about 3%, while plant based magnesium improves it about 30%, i don't know in what timespan though, i forgot the part but i guess in about a week we are talking, bisglicinate is about 4 times less expensive then threonate for the amount i have researched at least, so that's the one im using, and plant based ofcourse, pears are a very good source

Remag, created by magnesium expert Dr. Carolyn Dean is 100% absorbed at the cellular level. It is in picometer size, that is, 1/1000th of a millimeter.

With Remag you can get therapeutic doses of 600-1200mg with NO laxative effect. It really is amazing.

The maximum absorption of magnesium from a supplement is about 123 mg/dose. Anything above that can just act as a laxative. Taking magnesium in complex with an organic acid like citrate or acetate is best. It's good to try and get magnesium from your food in addition to taking a supplement.

I've heard that only 2-4% of the magnesium you purchase actually gets absorbed. And that there are multiple forms of mag you can take. I'm almost on an all plant diet. I still eat fish honey and goats milk/cheese. Hmmm I'll have to watch this again and write a few things down to research. I was actively anorexic for 35 years and then when I'd eat, it was the wrong foods. I swear the diet that we're told to eat is all wrong. I eat grains or processed cane sugar then I get backed up and fibro symptoms. I've also figured out that I'm oxalate, lectin, nightshade, soy and bovine intolerant. I've been allergic to cows milk and soy since infancy. I could tolerate it but it still made me hurt and sick. I take a mature multivitamin, 4k iu of D, an E, about 4k units of folic acid, 200mg of magnesium (sometimes bid) , about 35mg of zinc and 1k of vitamin b12. I'll also take a thyroid support vitamin from the vitamin shoppe. It's all been working wonders. A question I do have is 'are there any vitamin manufacturers that you'd recommend? ' I've managed to put RA and fibro into remission as long as I watch my diet. IBS symptoms too. It's really sad that most drs are unaware of the harm and damage they really are causing.

Ive since wondered if the reason we like hot springs (as apposed to cold) is maybe trace amounts of the minerals make it into our lungs, the heat may not just increasing the permeability of our skin but also act as a vapor delivery system in very small amounts. www.drmyhill.co.uk/wiki/Magnesium_by_nebuliser

I felt I was dying for 13 months I was so anxious, depress , feeling fatigue , dizziness , numbness, muscle spasm , chest pain , heart attach symptoms like jaw pain left hand numbness tongue tingling pins and needles trough out my body I have done lots of tests , blood, endoscopy ,changing diets ,neurologist visit , many trips to the hospitals most of the time by the ambulance nobody couldn't figure it out what was wrong with me couple days ago out of my desperate swinging moods I bought magnesium supplement I took one at the store an hour later most of my symptoms disappeared this morning I took another one after couple of hours I was dancing in my room
