Re: Duncan RE: Magnesium deficiency

[Guest guest]

Along these lines, I had a lab tech tell me she didn't know why but almost

always alcoholics come up very magnesium deficient. All seems to go hand in

hand. In fact, I do have to admit that I probably drank too much wine in my

20's. Was a workaholic who came home, did more work, and had rice and wine for

dinner almost every night. Definitely set the stage within for problems I

believe.

Does anyone know the best way to test for mag. Hair or blood?

Duncan RE: Magnesium deficiency

There is a genetically caused condition which ( can't remember source or name

of condition; you probably know) causes malabsorption and/ or limited

assimilation of magnesium. This same gene also makes an affected person

susceptible to candidiasis . I've already suspected that my candidiasis was

genetically related. When my father was the age I am now he had strange

symptoms. He drank quite a bit, he was tested for diabetes because of his

adverse reactions to sugar and alcohol, I believe one of his symptoms had to do

with his heart so he had some tests on that too. He was unable to find a cause.

In addition, My first cousin had severe acne over most of his body, antibiotics

didn't help. He eventually became schizophrenic. Candida when it has spread to

the brain is most often asymptomatic. Candida causes a magnesium deficiency on

it's own partly due to the B-6 deficiency. A genetic magnesium deficiency

compounded by a candida induced magnesium deficiency is probably the

cause of my heart palpitations, since magnesium deficiency can cause abnormal

heartbeat. Thanks Duncan, I think you may have filled in the missing piece to

my puzzle and made the picture much clearer. I'll increase my magnesium

supplementation and let you know how it works. Ron S.

Ron,

There is research evidence that shows that there is no way to get

therapeutic quantities of magnesium into you orally without causing

diarrhea. The only effective way is through the skin - in a bath, footbath,

or spray. There are several articles on this topic at

www.twilightamerica.com (of course with a special magnesium source ...)

According to literature published on magnesium, 80% of population is

deficient. So you could be almost sure you are, too. You can do foot soaks

with epsom salts, or for better results with magnesium chloride. See

www.twilightamerica.com I mentioned earlier ... I have personally heard

hundreds of happy stories from people who started using this simple remedy.

Hi Ron,

Just checking -- I expect that you're on b-complex vitamins (b-50 at

least twice daily?) If you can't handle yeast tablets - they're full of

b-vitamins.
