[@Jojo-o6o6w]

i left a reply on another channel as a test and its been there for 20 minutes yet when I copy paste it in your channel it gets deleted almost immediaely. What is going on?

[@dan-qe1tb]

You really should be concentrating on the "why" and not the "how". Where are your clinical trials showing that intermittent fasting has any health benefits? This looks more like an opinion piece. It doesn't guarantee weight loss. It doesn't guarantee lowering of blood sugar (though I get a big blood sugar and insulin spike once I start eating a big meal after a fast).

[@Jeffs60]

If Magnesium is so important why do zero breakfast cereals ever fortify it? They sometimes fortify up 100% RDA of various vitamins and minerals but never Magnesium.

[@Kube_Dog]

This is extremely clear and actionable information. Now it makes sense. Is the situation similar with zinc? Any video for that? Couldn't find one myself, so I thought I'd ask.

[@Kube_Dog]

@@Jeffs60Breakfast cereals are not the metric. Magnesium (as well as salt and potassium) are the key electrolytes and extremely important. The fact that breakfast cereals don't include it is a question for them, not evidence that magnesium is nominally important. Side note: breakfast cereals fortify with the cheapest and most poorly absorbed versions of vitamins and minerals. It's tempting to eat a tasty bowl of Captain Crunch or Total or whatever and feel like your cells are getting most of what they need for the day, but sadly it's not true.

[@John-isAround]

I started taking magnesium glycinate recently. I had a heart attack then 2 stents put in after a 11A1C last July. Then nearly died again from overdosing of prescription drugs including Insulin. Took myself off insulin, other drugs, starting walking and intermittent fasting and went to A1C of 6.1 by October.

Jason, you are definitely my health guru. I'm 67 have been doing IF for 6 years 18/6 sometimes OMAD, sometimes a 3 day fast. I do drink coffee with half and half and I also drink beer almost every day ( I'm German what can I say?). I'm 6'1 and initially I dropped from 204 to 165. Now I am always around 170, give or take a couple of pounds. I am active, I cycle, I ski, I go to the gym. My body fat is around 15%. Thank you for all your help. I could not have done it without you. :) I am such a fan that I tell everybody who asks me how I stay in such good shape. I tell them what I know, I send out video links but I have yet to find somebody who follows through. I think most people are just weak and lazy and that may be something even you can't fix. LOL

[@barnabasa.christian2258]

I thought Id never ever drink coffee with out sugar or fake sugars, in the book they mentioned using Heavy Cream with your coffee, have you tried that yet? Simple one or two ingredients

[@sgtaneja]

1. Magnesium citrate (no oxide) 2. Magnesium glycinate (non-buffered) 3. Magnesium taurate 4. Magnesium orotate 5. Magnesium malate 6. Magnesium aspartate 7. Magnesium threonate My favorite : magnesium glycinate, magnesium citrate & magnesium taurate. Magnesium has 3 critical absorption cofactors : 1. Active vit B6 or P5P 2. Vit D (active form) 3. Zinc Above 3 inter dependent.

[@user-xh4ip8kv2s]

@sgraneja, Thanks for posting your comment. I'm very interested in learning about critical Magnesium absorption cofactors. I recently learned about Vit D but your comment is the first I've heard about Active B6 or P5P and Zinc. I will now research those.

[@sgtaneja]

@user-xh4ip8kv2s Vit D is not the primary absorption cofactor for magnesium. It's active B6 - also known as P5P / pyridoxal 5 phosphate. In fact, P5P is also the primary absorption cofactor for zinc . P5P is also the key cofactor for bulk of amino acid metabolism. However, magnesium is the primary enzymatic cofactor for vit D metabolism & is required to convert vit D from its inactive form to its active form - a conversion done in liver & kidneys. Vit D, being a fat soluble vitamin, also requires Bile output for assimilation before it can be enzymatically metabolized.

[@barnabasa.christian2258]

@@sgtaneja I have taken the NOW brand of Magnesium for years, being 63 and participating in Intermittent Fasting, is there a one stop brand I can purchase for best results, absorption, etc? ty for your time & input

Malate slow release is one of the best, and threonate. Those in combination are excellent.

I was getting 3 per month migraines for decades. I started Mg 400 mg in 2009. No more migranes. I was shocked and then angry. All that suffering and doctors not even trying Mg.

[@uffa00001]

Same thing here, and not just migraines, but heart palpitations too. Modern medicine still has to take notice about how depleted of salts and other elements is modern food and modern tap water. These problems will make their way into medicine textbooks in the next years and will be solved by the next generation of doctors. In the meanwhile, we have to keep updating ourselves and try ourselves to understand what can be the origin of our problem. Don't be angry with your doctors because, if he had had the same problem, he wouldn't have found the solution himself.

[@tjjm1907]

Thank you Dr. Fung. I listened to your book 'The Diabetes Code" and everything you suggested might happen, has happened. In January I was 72 and morbidly obese at 265 lbs. Today at 205.2, I am off of insulin and metformin since February, off of two of three cholesterol drugs and well on my way to a goal of 190. I've been somewhat hooked on OMAD and watch many different videos on health and nutrition. I have been taking magnesium glycinate for months after watching a Dr. Eric Berg video and now this video only makes my decision more obviously correct. I have a prescription from the VA for magnesium oxide and with this info I contacted the VA. I am very happy with the VA generally but there was no getting the change to the more absorbable Glycinate.I buy my own as I understand the benefits. Again thank you. Your videos and books started me on my intermittent fasting regimen and with 60 lbs gone in less than 8 months I am ecstatic.

Dr Fung, I have just found you. I wrote a blog about you. I went on vacation and ate like a Queen, came home…fasted for 70 hours for the first time, only stopped because I developed a cold from travel. Still lost over 10 bs in 12 days. Had gone to intermittent fasting after the 70. I eat mostly carnivore and don’t require much food as a result. Healing my guy then will add back low carb veg. Doctor told me to graze 25 years ago since I was light headed…worst thing he could’ve ever “prescribed.” Been fighting insulin “resistance” for decades packing on ten lbs with each year though I faithful went to a bootcamp gym 3 and 5 days a week and ate low fat…I didn’t know. Never lost a lb that way. But I’m ok now, thanks to you I understand how my body work. You and Dr Sten Eckert I should say!!!!! ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉 No sugar, no cravings. Learned what real hunger is. Even learned it passes while my body feasts on its reserves as nature intended. Bless you Dr Jason. ❤❤❤❤

[@susanmast4393]

My magnesium is low (so is my B12) as a lot of my small intestines has been removed due to cancer. But my Dr does not believe in magnesium and gives me heck for taking the tablets.. So I take supplements ‘under cover’. But I’m stuck with him due to the bad state of the Ontario Health care. So thank you so much for this video.

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

If you're missing small intestine, then you are almost certainly deficient in many more vitamins and minerals as well, starting with your fat soluble vitamins of A, D, E & K. And other vitamins and minerals as well, depending upon which parts of your intestines are missing. These are absorbed in the small intestines at various points. If you're missing absorption sites, then you're unable to absorb all you need. I'm appalled by your doctor's lack of concern, frankly! I take some pretty massive daily doses of vitamins and minerals daily for this very same reason. Without them, I become very ill. (As an example, I take 100,000 IU of Vitamin D every day. Sometimes in summer I can go down to 100K every other day and 50K in the opposite days. Still a lot.) Research Short Gut Syndrome and learn about your malabsorption issues. Then, armed with your new knowledge, appeal to whomever you need to (sorry, I'm in the US, so I'm not sure who or how, but I've known of people who were able to successfully appeal for a change in doctors). I have my blood drawn several times a year (it's a lot - usually 23 vials depending on who's doing the draw - different labs divide the tests up differently). Rely on the doctor to help you read the lab reports at first, but learn about the tests and the individual vitamins/minerals and which levels you might want to be at the max on. I read my own labs because most doctors, unfortunately, just look at the little guide over to the right of the report for items marked too high and too low, but the ranges used are based on "normies" and aren't quite right for someone who malabsorbs. It's important for you to learn about which things are actually toxic if too high. I would suggest being very careful of B6. If you take multivitanins as a backup catch-all and then add a B Complex, you can be overdosing on B6 and end up too high. That's one vitamin you really don't want to do that with. Between putting too much in the multis, it seems to be added to all sorts of foods so it's easy to end up with too much. It seems to be problematic for people with malabsorption and can be very toxic with permanent damage. I haven't checked lately, but as of about a year ago there were no good multivitamins (gummie vitamins are worthless, BTW) available for sale that do not contain B6; however, there IS one B Complex for sale that does NOT contain B6 and that's worked well for me over the years. Just a tip if you find you need to supplement other B vitamins, as well. The alternative is buying and taking individual B vitamins on top of all the pills you're already taking. I wish you much luck! Please don't let this slide. ❤

Anyone have any idea why he was away for so long? One thing he didn’t get into here was, if you’re going to supplement, what is the recommended amount of milligrams per day we should be taking? The recommended daily allowance is only 400 mg, so should we take half of that and get the rest through food, or take all 400 mg every day? I also wish he had stated what kind of magnesium he prefers. He named three good ones, but which is his favorite? Also, WHEN is the best time of day to take it? I’ve always heard to take it at night because it assists with sleep, but if we’re taking it primarily for heart function, maybe we should spread it out throughout the day? Also, should we take other things in conjunction with it? For instance, I’ve always heard that we should take magnesium and zinc together.

N, P, K is the most common, because they are the most common in the plants tissue as well.

I think also having punch of salt is important especially for young people for electrolyte balance in the body cause I have noticed when I get sick my blood pressure goes down and even I fainted once so I guess we should be aware of that too .I hope you can make a video about that and gives more accurate informations .

Hello Doctor. The question is for how long ( days/ months / years) the Mg supplements should be taken and whether they cause any injury to the kidneys if taken for long time .

[@lejustevivraparsafoi3215]

Bonjour docteur Fung. Est-ce que une personne diabétique et hypertendu peut utiliser l’epson salt. Merci de me répondre. Continue à nous éduquer vous faites du beau travail.

[@Cenot4ph]

Meat also has sufficient quantities, about 30mg per 100 gram of meat give or take depending on meat type

[@jayantimukherjree8568]

Hello sir, for what duration can we take the supplement ?

[@silentvoiceinthedark5665]

In March I sprinkle Epsom salt in vegetable garden. The vegetables such as tomatoes and cucumbers do very well. I have not noticed too much difference in my other vegetables such as okra and spinach. However these vegetables by far taste better than store bought veggies. I also put eggshells, and the standard fertilizer. I wonder if the Epsom salt is being absorbed by the veggies

[@davidzaharik5408]

Thanks Doc... another well explained video.

[@peggylynn84]

Another Awesome video Thanks Much Love ❤❤❤

I wish some doctors would address the fact that some supplements’ dosing often needs to be adjusted up for higher body mass. I take most of my magnesium right before bed to also help with sleep.

[@tia904]

Yes, by far the best sleep a id.

[@Zerpentsa6598]

I get what you say about Mg deficiency. But one thing which intrigues me is what you said about crops being low in these trace minerals because I like to grow my greens. How can plants grow healthily if they are being deprived of these essential minerals? I know my tomatoes will start showing stress, etc.

Hello Dr, thank you for the great knowledge. One question, if im taking magnesium and vit D suplement when fasting, can I take the vitamins while not eating or should I take only when I m eating?

[@pennywild4131]

Can you give the best-selling brand please!❤ THANK YOU"

[@ToniDJohns]

Thanks Dr. Fung !!! Very helpful.

[@the12288]

My all time favorite Dr

[@Kevin_Knight]

Great video and explanation on Magnesium. Given your background as a Nephrologist, for those with oxalate based kidney stones and already prescirbed Potassium Citrate, would you recommend Magnesium Citrate if tolerated, rather than Glycinate form, given the data on glycine and oxalates for folks with oxalate related issues?

[@bobbondarul7448]

Great thing to cane with other topics What can you say about boron or Borax?

[@JHaygood-dq1rp]

Thank you Dr Fung! Thank you!🙌🏾

[@Bailey-xk2ow]

Thanks Dr.Fung I just start Magnesium Glycinate 1 week ago I have HBP will this supplement be ok to take 3 days a week

[@joycelebhaft4671]

Thanks Dr.Fung. You are the best!

[@msromike123]

Did I miss the part which recommended a starting dose for the intermittent fasting follower?

[@tetalj243]

Can you take 2 different kinds of Magnesium (L - threonate in morning and Glycinate at night)? If so, how much in milgrams for each? Do women and men take the same kinds and doses?

[@rspnpsp66]

I would like you to do a video on " How eating a carnivore diet effects yours kidneys?" Since you are a kidney doctor, I would love your insight on this subject.

[@rozbailey6889]

I’m Carnivore and have reversed Graves Disease, lost weight gained muscle and feel amazing. My kidneys are perfect 👌🏻

[@Nana-uo2th]

Dr Shawn Baker just did a video on this.

[@artemis6628]

I am on carnivore diet for 6 years. Asked the question to my nephrologist, his answer “no”, eating meat will not damage your kidneys. My GFR was going down and my family doctor said there was nothing to do, in a few years I may have to go on dialysis. I was 70 at that time. Since going carnivore my GFR first stabilized, then even improved (from 60 to 72). Now I take no medications and I see my doctor only for yearly blood work.

[@auroramatera7555]

@@artemis6628, Merry Christmas to you. Congratulations for your healing. No meds, this is very motivating for me. How long do I need to be on Carnivore diet to reverse my Parkinson’s and eliminating all my meds? Thanks to advise me.

[@auroramatera7555]

How long did you do Carnivore diet to eliminating all your meds?

[@maxfurrier1700]

I would be very happy to see a video of yours about Inositol. There is still very little information available about this supplement on KZbin. I am using it and it seems to be helping my sleep both in duration and quality. However, I would like to know the safety profile of this supplement and the correct dosage. Thanks!

Док, начебто все вірно, але чомусь не розповіли за форму : магнію аспартат. Це чудово засвоювана форма магнію, рекомендована до вживання тих, хто має проблеми з серцем. Аспартат піде у мітохондріях печінки до орнітинового циклу, допомогаючи знешкоджувати амоніак. І так : контроль магнію( разом с кальцієм, натрієм, калієм, хлором, фосфором, цинком, міддю та залізом) у аналізах крові ( підтримкою їх з БАД на рівні 2/3 - 4/5 референсу ) дуже допомогає бути здоровим у віці 50+. перевірив на собі, розповів друзям - на всіх працює така діагностика.

[@tomsparks6099]

I just had perfect bloodwork. I am on long-acting insulin and my free insulin was HIGH, my A1c has remained steady now ay 6.1. I'm thinking soon I will be able to back off the DMII drugs. I take Magnesium Glycinate. I think Vit D/ K2 along with this has improved my blood sugars, my circulation and overall health.
