Magnesium Changed My Life

submitted by Trope to NaturalRemedies 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 10:49:50 ago (+26/-2)     (NaturalRemedies)

Despite a zero carb carnivore diet, my blood pressure was still high. Resting heart rate was high and pounded at night. Began developing a heart palpitation after eating which can best be described as a hiccup of the chest. Could find no reasonable advice online. Even Dr Berg had fuckall for useful advice. Plebbit was insistent in Potassium (idiots)

After reading The Magnesium Miracle, I began supplementing with Magnesium Citrate (400 - 800mg per day). The palpitation went away immediately and never returned, The next day, my mind was the calmest it had ever been in my life. I used to get nervous or worked up prior to a lecture but now I can give my presentations without any jitters or anxiety.

My thoughts used to be squirrely and I’d often feel the need to start new projects. This sense of being wound up is gone. Concentration is easy now and I’ve since gone back to school to work toward a proper degree (anything but fucking computers this time) My fast heart rate went away within a week and my blood pressure was normal after a few weeks.

A few months later, I quit caffeine. Didn't feel like I needed it anymore. The withdrawal was very mild when on previous attempts, it was always awful. I feel like no one knows this about caffeine withdrawal and should like to write a publication some day.

I’m sharing this with you because I believe it can help change your lives for the better. Some of you will chime in saying it makes you tired but that anecdotal information is also useful for us all to take into consideration. One of you took the obscure magnesium theonine and fell into a deep depression. Mg citrate is safe. Mg oxide is hardly absorbed and should not be used.

Epsom salts baths dude (magnesium sulfate?), especially if you have an injury.
It's like mainlining magnesium, it fixes all sorts of problems and makes ya sleep like a baby.

[ - ] Trope [op] 4 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 11:27:47 ago (+4/-0)

Could not find any studies explaining mg sulfate was absorbable through the skin in any worthwhile amount.

My dude, go get some epsom salts (cheap as chips), take a hot bath in em, then tell me I'm wrong.

[ - ] Nosferatjew 2 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 14:23:17 ago (+2/-0)

I've taken tons of epson salt baths throughout my life, and compared to regular baths, I have never once been able to tell the difference.

You are probably getting enough magnesium from other sources.

Not like it's difficult to give it a shot and see if it helps ya out. And even if you think it's bunk, women love that shit. Having a bag on hand is something they would love.

Huh, never tried epsom salt, but certainly will give it a go. Thanks

[ - ] jfroybees 2 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 13:42:52 ago (+2/-0)

As a teenager with absolutely no pimple problems, I wake one day with a huge cystic zit on my cheek. My mom makes me take 2 tblspns of castor oil then drink a big glass of water with epsom salt crystals. Hand on heart, that zit was gone the next morning.

[ - ] dass 3 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 18:14:53 ago (+3/-0)

Yeah organic castor bean oil (cold pressed) is amazing for many things - it's one of those old go to's. From skin aliments, gut/ bowel issues, putting a large dab of cotton wool and applying across and around the eye lids at night, or directly on skin tags etc, fckers drop off after a couple weeks - not the eyes the tags but it reduces puffiness and makes the eyeballs clearer and less red, as well as lengthening eyelashes, lol.

Epsom salts to ingest is legit beneficial too - as long as it's the food grade.

[ - ] KeepPoal4fags 1 point 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 14:01:02 ago (+1/-0)

I haven't really tested it but its supposed to be great for acne and blackheads, just as a DIY topical paste.

[ - ] allAheadFull 1 point 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 20:37:50 ago (+1/-0)

Colloidal silver gel (the gel part is aloe) works like a miracle on acne, and you don't have to drink castor oil.

MG intake is dependent on MG deficiency, if your body needs MG it will absorb through the skin, hence MG oil skin rubs...
Try the epsom salt bath instead, feels fkn awesome.

[ - ] dass 1 point 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 18:10:36 ago (+1/-0)

Yea, i do a nice hot long epsom salt soak bath probably twice a week, and not that fragranced shit that costs 3x the price.
Plus i supplement with an organic magnesium ultra Absorbtion (4 types of elemental magnesium - not that oxide shite) or a natural marine magnesium - depending on which one has the better price point when i purchase.

I like to add tee tree oil for general antiseptic, and sometimes other essential/aroma oils if I'm feeling extra pissed about niggers or something.

[ - ] dass 0 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 18:57:58 ago (+0/-0)

Haha, yes, i use a tea tree oil shampoo/ conditioner for my two boys and a topical tea tree oil antiseptic spray for their scraps / abrasions etc, and a tea tree underarm anti-perspirant. Great stuff - i actually like/ enjoy the strong smell now.

[ - ] KeepPoal4fags 1 point 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 19:04:44 ago (+1/-0)

It's awesome aye, some people hate the smell but I love it. Unbelievable what it does for minor wounds, Manuka honey (bees make it from the same plant) is awesome for major wounds/punctures.

[ - ] dass 0 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 19:25:16 ago (+0/-0)

Yea, i've heard lots of good beneficial stuff about high quality honey. I was amazed to find out - legit honey never actually deteriorates, goes moldy or rotten etc if keep in an airtight container will only crystalize/ dry out when over-exsposed to oxygen or sunlight. You could literally embalm something for 1000 years in only honey and as long as it were kept sealed - zero decay, at worst the honey simply hardens over time.

[ - ] KeepPoal4fags 1 point 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 19:44:12 ago (+1/-0)

Yeah that's a trick there, most commercial honeys, especially in the USA, aren't even 100% honey. They are often cut with a high percentage of fake honey,and what actual honey there is is just refined sugar fed to the bees by (((big business))) beekeepers.
Kind of a dark rabbit hole, but it's really worth finding legitimate honey.

hmmm This is the second sign regarding Magnesium ive seen in 24 hours.

I used to have painful neuropathy in my thigh muscles.

Magnesium almost completely eliminated that.

I wonder if a high dose if niacin would fully cure it?

[ - ] CHIRO 2 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 12:22:55 ago (+2/-0)

I did this once, without realizing what the effect would be. Boy, that was a surprise. I looked like a fucking cherry tomato. When they say flush, they mean flush. That shit opens you right up. It wasn't just my face, I'm also talking arms and legs.

What about your ... you know.... peen?/
Axing for a friend.

[ - ] CHIRO 1 point 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 19:36:10 ago (+1/-0)

Haha. So, yeah. I'm not saying this stuff is going to treat full-blown erectile dysfunction or anything, but you might say your "erection health" benefits. That said, the flush itself has more to do with a sympathetic response, so it is going to "flush" your periphery more so than your core.

[ - ] Ragnar 0 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 23:08:32 ago (+0/-0)

The flush is too much for me
Plus they are finding out it’s actually bad for the heart despite lowering ldl

Thanks for sharing this info. I had to go look at what the magnesium I have is. It's magnesium oxide. I'll look for the citrate next time.

[ - ] Trope [op] 2 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 11:05:05 ago (+2/-0)

Surprisingly, walmart has magnesium citrate available in gummy form. But if you can make a trip to a proper health food store, you’ll always have better options.

[ - ] Leveraction 5 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 13:03:31 ago (+5/-0)

I'm hearing the gummies are no good. They basically use a quick spray over the gummies on a conveyor belt and your really not getting the nutrients they claim to provide. Source is Dr. Kelly Victory who has been a staunch advocate for no clot shots

[ - ] PotatoWhisperer2 2 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 18:29:31 ago (+2/-0)

Fucking fake chinesium bullshit.

[ - ] Chairman 2 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 12:45:46 ago (+2/-0)

See my post above (below?).

Oxide is a total waste of time and money, it's barely bioavailable. Get some Magtein from iherb or Amazon if it's cheaper.

[ - ] Thatguy 3 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 10:58:10 ago (+3/-0)

I’ve been on carnivore for several years. I experienced fluttering and increased heart rate, magnesium and potassium helped alleviate that, I take them regularly now.

There are three types of Magnesium: oxide, citrate, and glycinate. Oxide doesn’t absorb so well, citrate is very effective at loosening the bowels, glycinate absorbs the best.

Take it before bed and sweet dreams!

[ - ] Trope [op] 1 point 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 11:01:31 ago (+1/-0)

This is true. Glycinate is the most-absorbed. I always stick with citrate as I was most familiar with it and knew the taste.

The best way to prevent, slow down or reverse plaquing in the arteries:
• Vitamin K2
• High vitamin C foods
• Vitamin E
• Keep your Omega-6 fatty acids very low and keep your Omega-3 fatty acids very very high

The best foods for blocked arteries:
• Wild-caught salmon
• Sauerkraut (a fermented cabbage product): it's loaded with vitamin K2, it's also loaded with Vitamin C (7 times the RDA)
• A big arugula salad with extra-virgin olive oil, apple cider vinegar (or red balsamic vinegar), sunflower seeds, Parmigiano cheese (get the authentic type from Italy), and garlic

I've been doing 200mg of mag a day. Got a blood test back that showed maxed out on mag,so i cut back to every other day. Not sure about going the opposite to 400-800 mg a day. Hmm

[ - ] Trope [op] 2 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 23:13:49 ago (+2/-0)

Magnesium is stored in the tissues and not the blood.

If you overdose, fortunately your body will blast it out the back end.

[ - ] dass 1 point 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 18:22:19 ago (+1/-0)

Typically blood test levels for nutirents and vitamins etc are set by WHO or something and are basically at at minimum requirements.
Heck all the recommended vitamin/ nutrient supplement intake levels are a joke.

[ - ] Prairie 1 point 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 12:26:27 ago (+1/-0)

I recently started supplementing with it to hopefully help with migraines. I've read a deficiency in Mg can make them more likely.

[ - ] dass 0 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 19:30:47 ago (+0/-0)

Yea, magnesium is considered an essential mineral/ nutrient - the body has so many functions for it.

[ - ] UncleDoug 0 points 12 monthsJun 16, 2024 03:39:43 ago (+1/-1)

Remember tlol has the "best" medical advice on the internoobs. You should all take lots of mg to develop hypermagnesemia and Super saiyan powers. Crippling fatigue from smashing down mg vitamin tablets is only a hurdle on your way to greatness, dorks.

Micro-dose shrooms. Helps with strength pretty quick and really kicks depressions ass after 2 months or so.

I'm the one who you said would chime in about magnesium L-threonate. Yeah, it fucked me. Yes it's an anecdote, but I know four other people who had problems with Life Extension Magnesium, (people I had recommended it to when I first started taking it), so at least avoid that brand.

Magnesium is one of the electrolytes included in Gatorade. I don't drink that stuff, too much sugar; instead I take the equivalent in pill form. Several companies make it. Calcium, magnesium, and zinc.

[ - ] TheYiddler 2 points 12 monthsJun 16, 2024 05:35:24 ago (+2/-0)

Gatorade has no magnesium. Powerade says they have it but it's less than tap water.

Good Keto dieting advice will always mention supplementing your magnesium as you will become deficient in that particular vitamin.

I also supplement with magnesium, but not because of health. I like the taste.

You should look into Lithium Orotate as well.

[ - ] Chairman 0 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 12:44:00 ago (+0/-0)

Dump the citrate, replace it with a bottle of Malate and a bottle of Magtein (l-threonate). Take 500mg Magtein in the arvo, 1000mg in the evening and top off with 500mg of the Malate an hour before bed.

Thank me later.

[ - ] Hobama 0 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 13:13:07 ago (+0/-0)

Why malate?

[ - ] Chairman 0 points 12 monthsJun 15, 2024 20:05:57 ago (+0/-0)

Higher bioavailability, remains in the body for longer and doesn't have the same laxative effect citrate does. Malate for muscles, l-threonate for the brain.

Only some people experience the laxative effect from citrate.
