When I was in training as psychologist, my supervisor spoke about the benefits of magnesium for a number of reasons, e.g. reduced anxiety, stress and overall well-being. I followed his recommendation and the results were tangible. Mind you, that was in the year 2000, like almost 25 years ago. Btw, that's the value of a great practitioner, whether medical or psych, that they strive to know what is going on outside the box. Thank you, Martin Kleinschnitger, and shout out to you, Dr Rhonda. Great minds always think alike. 👍🙏

Thumbs up : Magnesium citrate (unbuffered) Magnesium glycinate (unbuffered) Magnesium bisglycinate chelate (fully reacted, unbuffered) Magnesium taurate Magnesium malate Magnesium threonate Magnesium aspartate Thumbs down : Magnesium oxide Magnesium sulfate Magnesium chloride Buffered magnesium salts

[@thechill205]

Citrate the best?

[@sgtaneja]

@thechill205 Depends on the specific outcome being targeted. For me personally, below is the 1:1 outcome. As of now, I only take magnesium glycinate (day time) & magnesium threonate (night time). I plan to try magnesium taurate next time. 1. Magnesium citrate : energy metabolism, bowel motility & regularity. Works as a mild laxative. NO relaxation or sleep enhancement. Day time magnesium. Recimmended for IBS-C. 2. Magnesium glycinate : energy metabolism, no relaxation or sleep enhancement. Quick absorption, daytime magnesium. 3. Magnesium taurate : energy metabolism, day time magnesium, no sleep enhancement, recommended specifically for cardiovascular issues, works well for blood pressure regulation. 4. Magnesium threonate : Relaxing magnesium with some sleep enhancement. Night time magnesium. Recommend for anxiety & sleep issues. Day time use is not recommended. Expensive ! Note: Contrary to popular belief, magnesium is Not the number 1 supplelement for sleep & relaxation. For that, you'd need pharma grade Glycine free form, pharma grade L-Tryptophan free form, pharma grade L-Theanine & possibly some GABA. Myo Inositol might help those with glucose intolerance induced sleep issues.

Love your videos. I've shared the one on all-cause mortality and cancer linked to deficiencies in micronutrients as widely as I can including to specialists, registrars, GPs, medical executives, nurse practitioners, CNCs.. pretty well everyone I can. One thing I think is worth pointing out is that when Rhonda talks about milligrams of magnesium, she is referring to "elemental" and NOT the salt value. In the case of Glycinate, for instance, to get 300mg of elemental magnesium, you need a 3000mg (3g) dose. I often find that people are taking a 500mg tablet of some salt (they usually don't know), thinking they are hitting RDA.. when in fact they might only be absorbing say 10-30mg, even less with sulfate or oxide.

This is anecdotal, because I never had an identified baseline magnesium level, but once I increased my daily magnesium glycinate supplement intake to 400 mg (200mg in morning and at night), my lifelong headaches and migraines disappeared. This happened at age 55 (male). If the cause of my lifelong headaches was truly because of a simple magnesium deficiency, I wish I had started with 400 mg many years before. No change in lifestyle; no change in diet…it has truly been remarkable.

[@elinope4745]

I am a shell shocked veteran, I got severe anxiety issues and I care about my health. I get my magnesium from epsom salt baths. My doctor complained that my magnesium levels were too high. In my not a professional but a fan of life hacking opinion, the actual fastest and best way to get a lot of magnesium to absorb fast is to eat eggs for dinner and the following morning do a workout and drink some coffee then take a cold bath with epsom salt in it while you are still sweating from the workout, an ice bath if you can tolerate it. Soak in the epsom salt for twenty minutes and then shower it off and wash with soap after, or if you are extremely magnesium deficient you can refrain from washing the salt off in the morning and just take a shower later at night to wash it off. I have seen no studies in books that say this, but it seems to me like, as your body excretes sodium, and potassium with sweat that the outward force of these metals through active diffusion in sweat, creates an ionic reactive force that will help pull magnesium through the skin and into the extracellular fluid of the hypodermis. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction, active diffusion one way can power diffusion in the other direction as well and this is a type of salt transport. I heard that absorption is better in cold than in hot baths, I know that egg protein is the best protein shy of milk protein to act as a dietary boost of active transport ligands, takes about 5 to 8 hours from eating to it to available in the blood.

[@PankajThakur-hq1vw]

Cold exposure after a workout isn't optimal though. Search Google for "cold exposure before or after workout"

PS (phosphatidylserine) has been shown in Japanese RCTs to have significant beneficial cognitive effects in elderly people so that definitely should be considered in that study you referenced.

[@pohaa]

My understanding is that GI effects can occur as a result of low concentrations of magnesium in the gut wall. Starting at low doses then steadily increasing results in the ability to absorb greater amounts without suffering diarrhoea. I regularly consume a scoop of powder with more than 300mg of elemental magnesium in it without any negative side effects. It wasn't the case initially though. Take it slow and steady is the key.

ATA Mg (acetyl magnesium taurate) - an innovative, bioavailable source of magnesium. The lipophilic structure of the ATA Mg formula facilitates its penetration through cell membranes, especially the blood-brain barrier. Studies have also shown that a relatively low dose of ATA Mg is enough to significantly increase magnesium levels in the brain.

Every day I took it, I had lucid dreams that stopped when I used a cheaper brand of L-Threonate that was not "Magtein" and when I used Magnesium Glycinate. The effect was very strong like a drug. How much is getting into the brain and how healthy it is, I cannot say, but it is definitely doing something.

Oh, the irony is that I've been taking Magnesi-Om for over a year, and I've been trying to replace it with something more affordable, but as Dr. Patrick said, it’s just not that many good blends available, so it remains. I decided to half the dose and include some other versions like magnesium glycinate for affordability and function and magnesium threonate for function. It's interesting that magnesium theronate shouldn't be significantly counted towards DV because everywhere I read it says high bioavailability which makes one think they’re going to absorb a decent amount. However, since there’s not much elemental magnesium, then there's not much to absorb I guess. Good to know because I was struggling to incooperate enough to be effective yet remain under my RDA.

[@scottkremer8660]

I don't understand why she says M-threonate has so much less elemental Mg. Three capsules of Double Wood brand M-taurate (1500mg) contain 120mg. Three capsules of LIfe Extension M-threonate (2000 mg) contain 144mg. So an equal dose by weight of 2000mg of M-taurate would have 160mg elemental, while M-threonate has 144mg.

Has anyone here heard of magnesium bicarbonate? I'm trying to wrap my head around if its worth pursuing. Apparently its the highest bioavailable form of magnesium as it occurs naturally in water. I also found something very curious when shopping for mag supplements. Most supplements will state the amount of magnesium glycinate for example in each capsule. But did you know that that apparently 1/4 to 1/8 of magnesium glycinate is elemental magnesium. Meaning the rest is glycine supposedly. I only saw one supplement maker that included this ratio in their label.

Just the facts...what's not to like about this channel? 👏👏

Awesome sauce. Thank you. I found a company selling Mag. Hydroxite from a marine source somewhere on the coast of Ireland and advertising it as as more bioavailable. They said that all magnesiums are absorbed the same way and said because of that, it really didn't matter what kind of magnesium it was. Then developed a coating from melon enzymes to cover the Mag Hydroxite to make it more bioavailable. I'd love your input. Nowhere have I ever been recommended to take Mag Hydroxite. Nowhere have I read that it is bioavailable at all. I have read that it can inhibit the production of iron and interfere with osteoporosis medications. One PubMed study I found showed that the marine source of Mag Hydroxite is bioavailable, but not more or most as compared to glycinate, malate, or citrate. Only compared to Mag Oxide and another one, and the study only showed it was shown to be bioavailable in men. So ... after talking with a variety of nutritionists, doctors, and my functional medicine doctor, I'd like to hear from you on whether or not you'd ever recommend Mag Hydroxite derived from a marine source.

I noticed the magnesium-Om she takes is sugar free. Does that mean it has synthetic sweeteners which are not healthy?

I took magnesium threonate (magtein) and I did find it helped with sleep but it unfortunately gave me a lot of stomach issues - nausea, painful stomach, loss of appetite because of how I felt.
