Magnesium Deficiency: Don't Ignore These 9 Symptoms

[@tommysmoothsiconolfi9401]

I have about 4 of those symptoms. So far magnesium citrate has been working the best for me.

Dr wild can you do a video on lithium please

[@DevorahLJaffe]

Could it be that different people absorb different kinds of magnesium better? I was supplementing with magnesium glycinate, but a local company which is highly absorbable by the body- however, when i retested my levels, they were actually lower than before. Maybe there is another form I can try to take? Hashimoto’s patient here as well if that makes a difference.

[@sunflower8599]

Dr Childs what about one that has citrate, glycinate, malate and taurine complex? Is that ok to take?

[@sl4983]

All of those in one?

[@dgh5223]

It helps me relax and sleep and helps anxiety.

[@sophiarevel6952]

Thank you very helpful information.

[@iamthefiremanjj]

Magnesium taurate is good to

I was diagnosed with hashimotos with no medication and a small nodule was found with the suspicious result 6 month ago , the doctors urge me to operate the whole thyroid but i am not so sure , without really giving me the security , as i have had the symptoms for a while , i have been concerned and have asked them but they always say it has nothing to do with what i have. I.m already over my weight and just found out from your videos it can increase in weight after the operation, this is one thing i was not even told at all. Is there a possibility not doing operation and improving my health with the lifestyle change , can a nodule dissappear. Please help out as i have operation in two weeks and my gut says i should not do it

Dr. Stev Ekberg has excellent videos on these thyroid issues. He even does telemedicine.

Hello doctor! Off topic question: Is high blood calcium linked to a problem with your Adrenal or parathyroid? All these things run in my family, plus all thyroid issues. Everybody's got something over here, Dr.Childs! 🙄

[@YSapphireGroup]

what about magnesium L-Threonate Dr?

[@katewalker2999]

Hi Doctor Childs which Magnesium is the best and how much do u recommend?

[@aadialogue586]

I have a few of these symptoms especially cramps and twitches and tried supplementing with magnesium ( magnesium citrate actually - 150mg) but seems to agitate my heart despite even halving the dose. I'm wondering could it be that my electrolytes are out of balance...or maybe I should consider potassium?

[@cmckee021]

Wow- I just posted this question too. I was taking supplement that has 3 types of of magnesium. In it. Maybe it’s the “citrate”?? 🤷‍♀️

[@aadialogue586]

Yes, it's worth trialing the one suggested by Dr Childs to see if palpitations still persist. I'm aware also that too little or too much magnesium can cause palpitations, or even hormonal and other electrolyte imbalances can cause issues with the heart...😟

[@cmckee021]

I take a supplement that is a mix of 3 types. But I’ve noticed heart palpitations that only last about a minute. I’m wondering if magnesium is causing this. Ever heard of this as s side affect??

[@faywickens2036]

Doc, would you recommend fasting for weight loss for 52 y.o.woman with hypothyroidism - tried everything to lose weight but unsuccessful. Thank you

[@drwestinchilds]

It may, yes.

[@taliczek]

I bought magnesium glycinate in powder form but I can't stand the taste. It tastes like soap to me. Even when it's mixed with a sweet beverage.

[@drwestinchilds]

Probably best to just get it in capsules so you can avoid the flavor.

[@trade6514]

Does bathing in magnesium flakes help in any way?

[@drwestinchilds]

Yes, some of it will be absorbed through the skin.

[@samantha392]

AF patients who take magnesium find it helps and sometimes eliminates them, but not all of course. Definitely helps with constipation and enhances sleep and helps you tolerate stress better.

[@katewalker2999]

Sorry I really should’ve watched all the video..I’ve been taking magnesium glycinate for a few weeks I do have insomnia and gut issues probably need to increase amount I take seeing your info love your videos they really help..👍

[@cmckee021]

Might try juicing celery first thing in morning on empty stomach to heal gut. Research it. They say it’s very helpful.

[@tasmiyakhannum6015]

Grateful to have a doctor like u dr.childs May god bless u abundantly happiness serinity 👏

[@christine3043]

I take 100mg of magnesium bisglycinate and have a banana before I go to bed. That combo has gotten rid of any minor cramping or twitching I had. I got the magnesium from a Naturopath. Wish I’d known about it helping when I was hyper because I’d find my toes would twist and cramp in a weird way. I’m sure the magnesium would’ve helped. For reference: I have Graves Disease and had a thyroidectomy 4 months ago.

[@BrokennessAndBeauty]

My toes do the same thing! Same with my mom! They cramp in weird directions and it’s painful!

[@phillipfielder675]

You Made Me "THINK" Doctor, You Are Very Impressive!

[@totallyraw1313]

Another symptom of magnesium deficiency is loss of erectile rigidity.

[@bjulianaleo3025]

Good to know!!!

[@chathudn]

Can magnesium deficiency cause ADD like symptoms?

[@Bella-hh1gk]

According to research studies ADD symptoms are more like iron deficiency symptom

Quick question maybe unrelated to magnesium. Whatever I eat, makes me look like I'm pregnant. Abdominal Distension.

[@kristylynn1329]

Thank you! I needed some clarity around Magnesium!
