Magnesium

[Guest guest]

Hi Maritza,

I remember you and how much you have struggled to feel better. I

think you can get better on your own without a doctor!

But if you have not gotten better in 2 years, you may have to make

some changes. Are you detoxing at all?

If you have been doing regular detoxing and are still not seeing

improvements, it is time to look at adding some things that might be

missing in your body. You can do all the detoxing in the world to

get better, but if you don't get what your body needs, you are not

going to heal.

Those things that we have to get somewhere else would be either

nutrients or the hormones.

If you have not checked into hormonal support, please do!

Thyroid--armour thyroid

Adrenal--depends on if you have high or low cortisol, but there are

things you can take, such as cortef, licorice root, and Vitamin C

Reproductive--there are creams and pills for bio-identical hormone

replacement therapy.

I wish you wellness. My hope is that all women will heal!

Hi Maritza,

Having your implants removed is just the first step. . .

Do you know if your capusules were completely removed?

I'd recommend "The Maker's Diet", not just for food plans, but for understand why nutrition is so important.

www.magnesiumresearchlab.com explains why magnesium is very important . . and the kinds to take.

Magnesium deficiency plays a huge role in muscle pain, bone strength, fibromalgia, heart health, and more. . . The way foods are raised in the modern world leaves most fruits and veggies lacking in essential vitamins and minerals.

Please read through the archives . . . not just old messages, but files and links. . . You'll know you've come to the right place. . . Unfortunately, you likely have a lot of work to do, but the good news is that you can get much, much better ., . . You can get your life back!

Hugs and prayers,

Rogene

What dosage do you recommend at 50 lbs. and where do you get yours?

Thanks for responding.

I, myself, use and recommend Magonate,

Fleming & Company, Fenton (St Louis County) MO.

Dr. Von

Fw: Re: Need help with rage episodes

Magnesium is a calming mineral. Aloe vera helps also and is an anti

inflamatory/pain reliever! Aggressive behaiviour can sometimes be pain related

or gi distress. Is there bloating? Jennie<><

Do you recommend a certain brand of magnesium? My son is 50 lbs. Do you know how

much I should consider giving him? What brand and amount of aloe vera do you

use? Thanks for responding.

Liquid Carnosine Plus (L Carnosine, Zinc, Vitamin C, Magnesium Taurinate,

Calcium Liquid

Cod Liver Oil

I look forward to hearing any suggestions and recommendations.

If you dont have problems with constipation you can try " 's "

aloe vera juice(no smell/taste). If there is problems with

constipation try Wallmart brand(the taste isnt to bitter). If just

for pain/relaxing you can give up to about 2-3 ounces to help relax

(helps with inflamation anywhere in the body and pain). Aloe well

loosen the stools as the same with magnesium. Use recommended daily

amounts on magnesium for maintenance. We use higher doses 2-3 times a

week of magnesium oxide, but this is for seizure control and looser

stools. As far as the magnesium we use capsule/powder form and add to

food. It is more absorbable this way, pills tend to just pass through

and liquid forms can be a little upsetting to the stomach with some

(this is magnesium)especially the citrate form. Always eat with

magnesium, aloe this isnt neccesary. Jennie<><

I use TwinLabs magnesium, which is magnesium oxide. I buy it at my

local health food store.

Lots of things can be constipating, including yeast overgrowth

Kelley,

My son is 50 pounds as well and I give him Threelac twice a day, (after

breakfast and

before bed) and also have him up to the same amount of Biotin as your son. I

also give him

1 teaspoon twice a day of Natural Calm Magnesium (I get it at Whole Foods) but

you can

buy it online as well. I believe it is very absorbable. We had to work our way

up to 1

teaspoon because it will cause diarrhea if you are taking too much and my son

has that

issue if we give him too much. (Sometimes it may be adjustments in the enzymes

that

really cause the loose stools, but once he has that problem, we back off on the

Natural

Calm a little until his stools get firmer.)

The way I do it is I pour a little boiling water on the Natural Calm powder, and

it fizzes up.

Once it settles down, I pour a little orange juice in to cool it. My son will

not take it with

pear juice, like he does for enzymes. Pear juice is better if you have any yeast

issues.

I take it myself just in water, but he won't drink it that way because it is

quite tart.

Reminds me of " Tang " from my childhood

Anyway, then I add one packet of Threelac because he won't drink it just in

water. Then I

mix that up and give it to him with a straw. He dissolves a half a tablet (500

mcg) of Biotin

on his tongue either just before or just after having the drink. I'm not sure if

this is the

best way to do it but it's the way he will take these before heading off to

school in the

morning.

Thanks for the information. I did see the Natural Calm at Whole Foods. I think

I will try that.

How much Threelac are you giving at each time?

Do you only give the Biotin in the morning?

Kelley,

Every morning after breakfast, and again in the evening before bed time, I give

my son (1)

packet of Threelac with a teaspoon of Natural Calm (we started with 1/2

teaspoon) in a

little bit of orange juice. I give him his Biotin either right before or right

after that. The

brand of Biotin I use is Nature's Way, and it comes in 1000 mcg tablets which I

now cut in

half. We started with 1/4 tablet and they are pretty easy to cut and my son

likes them

because they are a little sweet and they dissolve on the tongue. Keep me posted

as to how

this works with your son and I'll do the same

Sorry forgot to post link:

Magnesium Fizz. Cherry Flavor. A Naturally Calming Drink! A Magnesium-

Rich Mineral Complex. NEW Effervescent Blend, Dissolves In Cold Water

With NO Mixing. Tastes Great!

The FIZZ IZ Better. Magnesium FIZZ contains optimal amounts of daily

magnesium, combined with several other essential vitamins and

minerals to provide a magnesium-rich complex formula. Our unique

effervescent blend completely dissolves in water with NO mixing for a

tasty, easy-to-take drink! When taken as directed, Magnesium FIZZ

provides a 4-6 week supply of up to 700 mg per day of magnesium,

along with several other essential vitamins and minerals, including B-

vitamins, Biotin, Vitamin C, Chromium, Selenium, Potassium, Zinc, and

Manganese.

Did You Know? Magnesium has many functions in the human body. In bone

health, it plays a role in the structural integrity of bone.

Magnesium plays a role in over 300 fundamental life dependent

cellular reactions. Vitamin B5 is vital for a healthy nervous system

and has many other roles in maintaining health. Vitamin B6 is also

vital for a healthy nervous system and aids in the absorption of

magnesium. Vitamin C is required for the growth and repair of

tissues. It is essential in wound healing and for the repair and

maintenance of cartilage, bones, and teeth. Vitamin C also enhances

the absorption of magnesium. Potassium is an important mineral for

maintaining the pH balance of blood, body-water balance, and for

proper nerve and muscle function. Selenium is a mineral and an

antioxidant with many functions, including defending against free-

radical damage. Manganese is another important mineral needed for

healthy skin, bone, and cartilage formation. Zinc is an essential

mineral that is found in almost every cell. It stimulates the

activity of approximately 100 enzymes. Folate is a member of the B-

Vitamin family, which helps produce and maintain new cells. Folate is

needed to make DNA and RNA, the building blocks of cells. Biotin is

another member of the B-Vitamin family that assists the body in

metabolizing protein, fats and carbohydrates from food. Chromium is a

trace mineral needed by the body for normal growth and health.

Chromium helps your body use sugar properly. It is also needed for

the breakdown of proteins and fats.

Oxide is not as well absorbed as other forms.

Too much magnesium will tend to cause diarrhea. It is easier to reach

the " too much " stage with oxide, because the other forms will be

better absorbed.

Andy recommends 200mg with each meal and another at bedtime. Mg

orotate or malate are the most body-friendly forms...

400mg is a lot of powder to fit in one cap. When you say " a 400mg

capsule " it reminds me that sometimes, when the vitamin bottle says

" Magnesium 400mg " , it's always best to look at the ingredients panel.

Sometimes it will say " 2 caps provide... 400mg Mg " . So each cap is

200mg. Best to check.

I have given as much as 1000mg of magnesium when my kids were just

starting certain supplements that require magnesium for proper

absorption. Watch for diarrhea and headache, which were my kids' and

my signs that the dose was too high.

As a general rule, yes, altho you may need more than just " small doses " ,

depending on other issues and what supps you give.

I have not found either of these to be particularly high in phenol. Some kids

with oxalate issues have problems with these though, especially vit C if it is

in citrate form. We use both without any problem.

Mycellized vitamin A drops are another form. We have problems with beta

Butter Oil. I'm going to try that once our Carlson's CLO runs out.

The malate chelates aluminum and we use citrate. Our dr said that it is easier

for them to absorb with the gut issues.

Butter Oil. I'm going to try that once our Carlson's CLO runs out.

I found l-glutamine to be the best thing to help form my 7 yr old stool who

has has soft stools since I could remember...it really helps to seal up the

membrane in the gut (this is what my dr says)....

Subject: [ ] Magnesium

Has anyone used a form of magnesium that has firmed the stool or caused

constipation?

If so what form was it (i.e Oxide, glycinate, citrate, malate, aspartate,

etc.)?

I am not interested in what the supplement advertisers claim, but rater what

people have actually witnessed.

Thanks

We have used Magnesium Glycinate, which made no difference (no loose stools or

constipation)
