I would strongly suggest that if you are going to take magnesium supplements to do so at night before you go to bed. I used to take all of my supplements in the morning and then I would be so tired during the day and I didn’t know why. Taking magnesium at night before bed was a game changer for me.
Same here. I actually take them at dinner to be sure to get fat and water to absorb them. I’m also very very very forgetful in the morning. So it’s a win win.
Same, I got Lif-flo magnesium lotion, my RLS disappears when I use it and it does work better in evening, so I’m not falling asleep too soon. This helps me in so many ways💕 thank you

I've dealt with severe pain for decades. I was anorexic & after I began eating daily it took me over a year to realize I was eating the wrong foods. I'm still allergic to milk, beef and soy. Magnesium has helped my pain levels to go down a lot along with the diet changes. And helps my sleep a lot. I did have neurosurgery in March & it helped get rid of about 40% of my overall pain. But I had been malnourished big time. Eating correctly & taking supplements has changed my life drastically.
I just learned it's oxalates that I'm extremely sensitive to. That's my problem. 50+ yrs of pain and not 1 Dr could figure that out or that I'm autistic.
T. B....may I know what type of neurosurgury you have?Where and what did the dr. done?I'm from South Africa and never heard about surguries on neuro/nerves.My English is not perfect...but try to let me understand this...thank you so much
Have you tried raw goats milk? Many who are allergic to milk are so because we're drinking low quality supermarket milk. Goats milk us highly digestible and enzymatic whole.
After having mild but persistent pain in my hip and lower back for months, I suspected that I night be magnesium deficient. Watched your video and it was confirmation for me. I took magnesium glycenate: and two days later the pain is GONE. I came here straight away to let you know!! I'm watching all of your series on back pain, etc. Thank you, new subbie here!!
I use magnesium for that exact thing. It works wonderfully well! I mix a tiny bit in a glass of cold water and those awful, scary random flutters calm down.
I was plagued with some screaming cramps due to arthritis in my feet that persistently woke me up at night. A wonderful MD suggested magnesium which was life-changing for me. Thank you so much for your presentation which I have forwarded to someone else in need. I am a grateful subscriber. Keep up the great work.
I hadn't realised the arthritis in my feet was actually psoriatic arthritis. I've been taking Mg for other reasons but yes, the pain in my right heel mostly stays away.
I started with a topical magnesium , Theraworx, effective but needs a few minutes before the cramps stop in my feet. Learned later about supplement pills, recommended daily dose worked, cramps now rare, infrequent. I keep the Theraworx still, for that rare cramp moment.
The form of magnesium is very important. The Magnesium Glycinate form is more readily absorbed and the side effects are minimal if they exist at all. It's more expensive, but really worth it! Read the supplement label and get the one without the other forms of magnesium. I no longer have migraines and no loose bowels (which I had with the cheaper magnesium oxide), and I sleep much better! Thank you, Dr. Furlan!
Did you get diagnosed for magnesium deficiency or just go for it? My migraines are getting more frequent I just want a fix without dinking around wirh referralsand blood work. Someone told me about Mg the other day so I'm here. Sleeping more soundly and through the whole night would also be a plus. Any correlation with caffeine and your migraines?
I began taking magnesium malate or glycinate a few years ago due to eating a ketogenic diet due to diabetes. As a wonderful side effect my migraines became far less, muscle pain decreases quite a lot, and my BP doesn't have as many swings. We found it helps my husband with pain, and stress issues he had. It also helps him sleep better. There are two vitamins that I notice reduce my muscle pain, magnesium and vitamin D. They make a big difference. Other vitamins do help, but magnesium I never want to be without again.
@radicallyforjesus Vitamin D very helpful to me as well in combination with magnesium. Slightly off topic but some new formulations of curcumin I'm finding very helpful relieving pain--for me it took a few months before I noticed it. I hope the good doctor can get around to covering the pros/cons of curcumin. I'm finding you gotta do "all the above" to make any noticeable/helpful difference, take care all
I also take magnesium, D3, raw turmeric, cayenne pepper pepper and garlic, apple cider vinegar, olive oil and some other things. I really thought i was dying when I started but now I'm only sore in my hands. Zinc helps also.
@@gettingstuffdoneright5332 yep, you have began to realize that human nutrition is important and poorly understood by most doctors, and that we have been given much misinformation from government
I suffered from migraines for many years until I read an article of a woman who used Magnesium for her migraines and it helped. I bought it and took it 3 times a day and still do because I never had migraines again.
Here it is 1:11 AM and I woke because of physical pain from being on my feet for 6.5 hrs prior to bed. I had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia many yrs ago yet I believe it is more from issues of the diabetes curse. I have been taking many supplements and more recently added Magnesium. I am so blessed to have come across your posts and look forward to keeping up with your past and future informational posts. May God's divine blessings and favor continue to be upon you Dr.
Thank you so much for sharing this information. I have suffered from rheumatoid and osteoarthritis since I can remember. I am 82. I fell on my right hip 20 months ago and have gone through a series pain management to no avail. I am finally feeling better since I starter taking magnesium which has certainly given me a significant easing of pain which helps me to remain able to function on my own.
I take magnesium chloride in its liquid form doesn't taste good but after rinsing it out down with plain water it works very well to replenish or build up my magnesium levels
I used to get terrible migraine headaches. Years ago I began to take magnesium for my muscle cramps, and now I never get migraine headaches anymore! I never thought they might be connected. I want to try magnesium glycenate because I have insomnia.

I was able to completely eliminate the 6-12 migraines per month I was getting. I started at 1500 mg and titrated down to 250-500bmg daily. I haven't needed to fill a prescription auto-injector for migraines for 3 years.
Hi Dr Andrea. I have a slipped disk and have been suffering horrible pain for the last 3 weeks left leg all the way down to the foot. I have taken the prescribe pain killers, but I am still suffering. I watched this vid/post last night and took your advice. The supplement was magnesium taurate, 2 tablets, also 1 this morning. It was the best sleep I have had in 3 weeks. The pain is back this morning but there seems to be a slight improvement. Thank you so much, and God bless you.
And magnesium was the only thing that stopped the post herpetic pain a family member had for 20+ years after Shingles. She began taking magnesium for muscles spasms but we realised it was relieving her shingles pain. When she ran out of magnesium the pain would come back. When she started it again, the pain went away.
Hi what kind of magnesium did he take?my mother also suffers now from nerve pain because of shinglws,may i know what magnesium did take to ease the pain nerve thank u
@@candyvillanueva6991we're in Australia, and used Cabot Health's Magnesium Complete. If you go to their website and look up, Magnesium Complete, it will give you the ingredients. Hope the information is of use and helps you.
I'm 58. I take magnesium/zinc about an hr before bedtime. I also take collagen in the morning. I rarely have pain, maybe a little shoulder stiffness but I've dealt with that issue since my early 20s.
I really 👍 like her explanation and knowing she’s great to understand even if you know really nothing about medication 💊. Thanks 🙏 a lot for your explanations. 🌅
Very clear and thanks. I have been taking a Cal, Mag, D tablet for years. If I miss a couple of days I feel like my joints are seizing up from arthritis pain. Thanks for confirming about mg.

I use Magnesium Chloride oil and use it topically for my pain. In fact, I use most of my oil topically for optimal results. I do not have diarrhea using this method.
@@craftjunkie-gq2rb I'd like to know that, too, if you try it. I have neuropathy (numbness alternating with pain) in the soles of my feet and toes. I take magnesium citrate but it doesn't help my feet, so I'd like to know if the oil would.
I’ve been dealing with pain for 10 years. Lack of proper medical care from the military and injuries after my discharge. Magnesium has helped me with my pain in lumbar area as well as both of knees. I upped my game with grounding sheets, and acupuncture beeds. My condition is also made more complicated as my gout is quite aggressive. So diet is a bit more complicated. Thank you for sharing this. I also take a grain of sea salt under my tongue with water.
Thank you! I have watched many videos on magnesium for pain by different educated people but your video has explained the different types of magnesium supplements far better than most. You gave factual information, good sources of information and explained it in detail. I have CFS, Fibro Myalgia and diabetic neuropathy. I eat a fair number of the foods that you listed that have a good source of magnesium yet I still have all the signs of deficiency. I think it's due to all the medications I take. I think adding the magnesium Glycinate taken in the evening would be a good option for me. My leg pain and feet pain is far greater when trying to sleep. I understand this video was for informational purposes only.
Dr. Andrea is there a similar medicine compared to magnesium ? I'm asking that because of the reaction of the medicine in the intestine as I usually have problems with diarrhea, I'm certain I cannot take it. Thk you.
That was really interesting. Thanks. Just looking on Cronometer it seems very easy to get up to the daily amount and at under a 1000 calories too. I took 15g of raw cacao because it's non dutched and therefore froths very effectively in a milk frother, especially using organic, unsweetened soya milk (250ml). Two medium slices of whole wheat bread and 200g of baked beans. Milled flax seeds 10g...the sprouted type are especially good. Then sweet potato and carrots 150g each and 150g each of broccoli and cabbage. That's 965 Kcal and approx 420mg of magnesium. Incidentally that also gives well over 100% of Phosphorous, iron, manganese and copper and nearly 100% of calcium, potassium, zinc and selenium, not to mention most of the daily vitamin requirements and a great omega 3 to omega 6 ratio. In the UK that's very inexpensive food especially at those small quantities
You are a wise man!! I like Your ability to compile a list & eat those things to nourish the body. Wonderful!! Thank You & Bless You for making such a great example!
also BRILLIANT to point out IF a person ate FOOD we would not need any 'meds' to further bring imbalance, excesses & deficiencies into our bodies. That will NEVER be corrected with (spelling does not count - You know what I mean :-) ) metroprolol, omperazole, thoroxin, statins etc etc etc.... EAT FOOD! Be well!!
Unfortunately most commercially grown vegetables are lacking natural minerals due to the methods used to grow them. Soils are depleted of natural minerals and so farmers are using fertilisers to grow. As well hydroponics, where they use fertilisers and so the vegetables are lacking in many minerals usually found in organically production. Then there's the pesticides and other chemicals used to get picture perfect uniform products on the shelves. This is also the case with meats. Unless you're eating organic foods and non GMO it's a loosing battle....

I stumbled upon magnesium 2 yrs ago from another source. But today while I’m watching this, it’s great explanation and very true. I will not go without. Your body uses it 300 Times a second on the cellular level. It does just about everything. Much more than pain. Blood pressure, strong bones and teeth , it also makes the arteries in your heart and veins more elastic like they were when we were kids and young adults. So basically your chances of having heart disease lessons and it keeps your circulatory system in much better working condition by taking magnesium. Taking vitamin D3 not only helps with depression, pain and strong bones, it also is needed to be taken with all your other vitamins and supplements to be evenly distributed around your body. Recently came across this info, incase anyone else was not aware of this info on D3 and magnesium. So I will not take my vitamins and supplements without vitamin D3 at same time now
@My Love Is there any point in taking multi vitamins? I've bought some & they made me ill so I bought a bunch of separate vitamins including K2 to try, but they're all so huge! I have issues swallowing them all.
I have just come across your videos. I LOVE how they are all so clear, easy to understand and you get straight to the point. Excellent and easy to apply information. Thank you!!!

I consulted my Dr and she highly recommended because I also have high calcium levels and blunt pain in my right thigh that she is treating with Magnesium for now.. Wish me luck, just started on this regimen.
I TAKE MAGNESIUM CITRATE -- I FEEL LIKE A NEW PERSON SINCE I STARTED -- PAIN THROUGHOUT MY BODY HAS MOSTLY BEEN ELIMINATED (I HAD BEEN ON PREDNISONE FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS WITH PMR (AUTO- IMMUNE) AND THIS HAS HELPED REDUCE ANY RESIDUAL PAIN. SUFFERED CONSTIPATION FOR YEARS SINCE RADIATION -- GONE! THE DETAILED EXPLANATION IN THIS VIDEO WAS REFRESHING TO HEAR -- ESPECIALLY HOW SHE USED MEDICAL TERMS AND THEN EXPLAINED THEM FOR US LAYMEN TO FULLY UNDERSTAND. I WILL CONTINUE TO FOLLOW THIS LADY: DR. ANDREA FURLAN
Dr Andrea gave me my life back, the pain still here, but under control. The best pain doctor ever. Thank you for more this material and for all you have been doing to me.
Since I started using Magnesium (2x250mg daily) I no longer suffer from diabetic cramps. My heart disease (according to my cardiologist) also seems to be in check with my AFIB undetected 50% of the time vs. 100% of the time as it had been in the last 10-years.
Magnesium all but ended my High Blood Pressure and PVCs. I went into the Hospital, had tests , etc, and no Doctor ever told me I was electrolyte deficient. A Vitamin Salesman told this , and it changed my Life.
This is my first Dr. Furlan video... I figure she must be Brazilian... she has the same accent my english speaking Brazilian family has, so I feel right at home and subscribed! Ta tudo tranquilo!
I have taken 250 mg at hours of sleep for several years, also make you sleep better. Good for heart also for younger women with monthly loss of blood (periods)
I've only one comment.. great channel.. great dr.. always talk evidence based...and a great help for the pts and sufferes in general....May Almighty keep you healthy wealthy and wise
Your videos are really worth watching. Please keep guiding us with your useful tips especially regarding our daily diet which could be health friendly. Bye.
What do you think about Magnesium oil spray. It says Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate 6 sprays at 125mg per day onto chest, feet, underarms, & joints daily.

Synergy is basically the theory of multiple nutrients needed to be ingested because they need to be able to work together. Taking a magnesium pill could drive down other nutrients in your body that are low already causing disease. If you are well to do or have a relative that loves to garden you would be best to grow green vegetables especially vegetables such as broccoli to get the multiple nutrients that are needed. Increasing your magnesium without maintaining proper potassium levels could be a dire problem
My doctor just told me to start taking 500mg of this a day as I suffer from chronic pain from countless injuries throughout a very violent life as well as extreme anxiety and PTSD, lately I was experiencing taquacardia and bracacardia due to lowering my Clonazepam too quickly...... This lead to a level of terror even I have never experienced before.... I was waking up scared of what the day would bring, if I even slept, to going to bed in terror.... Last week my big toe went numb and I told him about the discomfort in the same leg.... It was as if he had an epiphany and said I needed to take the magnesium...... It's only been a few days of taking 400mg but tonight I'll be taking the recommend 500 as I had to wait for delivery...... I already feel a bit better but I'm getting a EKG and something else done later this week.... Oh and my numb toe has decreased...... I'll update this in a bit when I know more.... Thanks for the explanation, it helped.....
So glad I come across this video. I've been having a little muscle pain for couple of weeks. So I will consider giving this mineral a try..I used ti take magnesium but I stopped. It might be worth a try to start to use again. Thank you very much for this very helñful info. 🙌🙌
I was having cloudy vision which routinely was blamed on cataract in early stage.i took magnesium glycinate and only few days cloudy vision seems to have diminished and being energetic and cramps and fasciculation of muscled getting improved.

It's the best thing for runners cramp which can wake you suddenly in the middle of the night with pain in both legs! The effect of a magnesium tablet is almost instantaneous in the relief it brings!
Thanks for your video. It gave me good information. Couples of months ago. I want to take magnesium L-threaonate for pain, anxiety, and sleep. So I asked my doctor to order my blood level of magnesium before I decide to take it. The result came back showed that my blood magnesium is within normal level. So I am now hesitated to take due to it may cause overdose. My doctor thinks it is OK to take but said I do not necessarily need it.
I had similar situation yrs ago but did research and learned physiological levels and therapeutic can be diff and My MD agreed also that there are limits to diagnostic tests. There are good studies on this. I’ve taken citrate then glycinate for many yrs and really find it helps with pain, sleep and anxiety. L-threaonate is good for brain function.
A gentle reminder that research has recently shown that “normal” levels are not optimal levels. “ normal levels” were developed many decades ago, usually in reference to preventing a particular disease/ deficiency that was common in the first half of the last century. Best of luck!✨
love how you describe it !! all along with the pictures of how it works on the brain. THANKS!!! I ll take magnesium and will visualize the pictures and your explanation
As an Alaskan, I used to cross country ski, mountain bike, hike, jog, was 5' 8" 130lbs, extremely fit. But started having progressive pain. A ton of prednisone & wt gain & a billion doctors & @15 yrs later diagnosed w/fibromyalgia. Put on Cymbalta & Lyrica, not helping the pain, gave other problems. I got off them. Was told by a friend about 15 yrs ago who is a cancer & AIDS researcher to use magnesium. I have & do and it helps. Take it at bed w/Vita-D. Helps a little. But as painful as it is, exercise in addition is also helpful.
Hi Dr.Andrea Furlan for bringing this video on just at the right time for me to learn about magnesium helping with muscular pain I’am having,and also for anxiety,and insomnia as you mention,and i must add I used it for leg cramps and it did help to get rid of the leg cramps,keep more videos coming thank you😘🙏
I went through so many invasive treatments only to realize I had central sensitization that mainly affects my lower pelvis. Sometimes I find the best help for CS is reducing stress and increasing exercise even on days when I don’t want to. It has made a massive difference in tampering down abnormal signals from my brain. However, it’s nice to have a little bit of help either pharmaceutically or in the form of supplements so I’m always interested to see these things. I was taking magnesium for constipation but to be honest, Things have been better for me lately and maybe I can attribute that to magnesium
HAVE THE SAME THING!!! I've never met anyone who has something similar to me. I have to take Lyrica and Naltrexone. I notice exercise (finally I can move) has reduced my pain which was horrific for a year and half. I'm just finally enjoying lower pain but my athleticism has gone down by 90 percent. I use to be a skier, hiker and biker. I can't even sit yet or drive. Message me anytime. I'm Laura Stollorz Schroeder. I take B12, Vitamin D, Fish oil and Vitamin A. I'm trying to get my body back and gain weight but it's been a challenge. I'm trying to be more positive. I love Micheal Sealey for Hypnosis on TH-cam. I would like to take Magnesium Malate.
In addition to magnesium, but a bunch of silicone scar gel and apply it all over your pelvis area 2x a day. It will restore the tissue, which has had excessive calcium and other minerals accumulate in it.
@@lauraschroeder8177 Hello I am Kally, My body has been in pain for Two years after dental appointment two years ago. I heard the drug from podcast about Natrexone. Does it work for you? and how much you take? and you also take Lyrica. So are these drugs have much of side effects ? Thank you Kally from Alberta
@@lauraschroeder8177 To be more specific, I developed interstitial cystitis from too many UTIs when I was young. Then I was given a nerve block which unfortunately irritated my pudendal nerve and then I end up with something horrible called pudendal neuralgia. Of course you can add pelvic floor dysfunction on top of that which generally develops when you have excessive nerve pain. I was a mountain biker before all this happened, and as you can imagine, with these conditions it can be excruciating to sit on a bike seat. Some people would tell me it’s even damaging, but I have found that with the right bike set up and slow return to my favorite activities, I can ride Pretty much pain-free now. I just have to use a special saddle and I’m good. It wasn’t easy at first, you’re always gonna have a bit more pain when trying to get back into activity when you’re this sensitive. I would consider myself 80% better. I have people contacting me all the time from support groups because they can’t believe I’m sitting on a bike and doing better from some thing supposedly so incurable. I tell them I use mind-body approaches but that it’s not an overnight fix. It’s a constant maintenance.
Hi Dr.Furlan first thank you for sharing your knowledge. A family member was told her blood platelets dropped very low……My question is how can she raise her blood platelets naturally ? Can you do a video on that condition? Thank you in advance for any information you can share

It also helps him sleep better. There are two vitamins that I notice reduce my muscle pain, magnesium and vitamin D. They make a big difference. Other vitamins do help, but magnesium I never want to be without again.
@radicallyforjesus Vitamin D very helpful to me as well in combination with magnesium. Slightly off topic but some new formulations of curcumin I'm finding very helpful relieving pain--for me it took a few months before I noticed it. I hope the good doctor can get around to covering the pros/cons of curcumin. I'm finding you gotta do "all the above" to make any noticeable/helpful difference, take care all
I also take magnesium, D3, raw turmeric, cayenne pepper pepper and garlic, apple cider vinegar, olive oil and some other things. I really thought i was dying when I started but now I'm only sore in my hands. Zinc helps also.

Hi Kelly, I'm preparing a video about migraines. I'll talk about prevention of migraines with magnesium.
How much magnesium do you take to prevent migraine?
How much do u take? I get headaches so many times.... and how long it took for u to get rid of headaches
I m gonna try magnasium glycinate
I simply want to thank you for being such a clear educator in the medical field. I find your advice precious so, once again, thank you!

What type of magnesium did you take?
@@traceyc2576 I have used magnesium
malate for 5 years with good results.
Here it is 1:11 AM and I woke because of physical pain from being on my feet for 6.5 hrs prior to bed. I had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia many yrs ago yet I believe it is more from issues of the diabetes curse. I have been taking many supplements and more recently added Magnesium. I am so blessed to have come across your posts and look forward to keeping up with your past and future informational posts. May God's divine blessings and favor continue to be upon you Dr.
I’ve found being off gluten completely reduces symptoms. It takes about a week.
Magnesium will also help you with your diabetes.🤩

You might try a product called "CALM" which is normally found in health food store.
I was able to completely eliminate the 6-12 migraines per month I was getting. I started at 1500 mg and titrated down to 250-500bmg daily. I haven't needed to fill a prescription auto-injector for migraines for 3 years.
That’s awesome! What brand and/or type are you using?
It helps with joint pain and bone pain too
Hi Dr Andrea. I have a slipped disk and have been suffering horrible pain for the last 3 weeks left leg all the way down to the foot. I have taken the prescribe pain killers, but I am still suffering. I watched this vid/post last night and took your advice. The supplement was magnesium taurate, 2 tablets, also 1 this morning. It was the best sleep I have had in 3 weeks. The pain is back this morning but there seems to be a slight improvement. Thank you so much, and God bless you.
And magnesium was the only thing that stopped the post herpetic pain a family member had for 20+ years after Shingles. She began taking magnesium for muscles spasms but we realised it was relieving her shingles pain. When she ran out of magnesium the pain would come back. When she started it again, the pain went away.

I’ve been dealing with pain for 10 years. Lack of proper medical care from the military and injuries after my discharge. Magnesium has helped me with my pain in lumbar area as well as both of knees. I upped my game with grounding sheets, and acupuncture beeds. My condition is also made more complicated as my gout is quite aggressive. So diet is a bit more complicated. Thank you for sharing this. I also take a grain of sea salt under my tongue with water.
Thank you! I have watched many videos on magnesium for pain by different educated people but your video has explained the different types of magnesium supplements far better than most. You gave factual information, good sources of information and explained it in detail. I have CFS, Fibro Myalgia and diabetic neuropathy. I eat a fair number of the foods that you listed that have a good source of magnesium yet I still have all the signs of deficiency. I think it's due to all the medications I take. I think adding the magnesium Glycinate taken in the evening would be a good option for me. My leg pain and feet pain is far greater when trying to sleep. I understand this video was for informational purposes only.
Dr. Andrea is there a similar medicine compared to magnesium ? I'm asking that because of the reaction of the medicine in the intestine as I usually have problems with diarrhea, I'm certain I cannot take it. Thk you.
That was really interesting. Thanks. Just looking on Cronometer it seems very easy to get up to the daily amount and at under a 1000 calories too. I took 15g of raw cacao because it's non dutched and therefore froths very effectively in a milk frother, especially using organic, unsweetened soya milk (250ml). Two medium slices of whole wheat bread and 200g of baked beans. Milled flax seeds 10g...the sprouted type are especially good. Then sweet potato and carrots 150g each and 150g each of broccoli and cabbage. That's 965 Kcal and approx 420mg of magnesium. Incidentally that also gives well over 100% of Phosphorous, iron, manganese and copper and nearly 100% of calcium, potassium, zinc and selenium, not to mention most of the daily vitamin requirements and a great omega 3 to omega 6 ratio. In the UK that's very inexpensive food especially at those small quantities
You are a wise man!! I like Your ability to compile a list & eat those things to nourish the body. Wonderful!! Thank You & Bless You for making such a great example!
also BRILLIANT to point out IF a person ate FOOD we would not need any 'meds' to further bring imbalance, excesses & deficiencies into our bodies. That will NEVER be corrected with (spelling does not count - You know what I mean :-) ) metroprolol, omperazole, thoroxin, statins etc etc etc....
EAT FOOD! Be well!!
Unfortunately most commercially grown vegetables are lacking natural minerals due to the methods used to grow them. Soils are depleted of natural minerals and so farmers are using fertilisers to grow. As well hydroponics, where they use fertilisers and so the vegetables are lacking in many minerals usually found in organically production.
Then there's the pesticides and other chemicals used to get picture perfect uniform products on the shelves.
This is also the case with meats.
Unless you're eating organic foods and non GMO it's a loosing battle....

I stumbled upon magnesium 2 yrs ago from another source. But today while I’m watching this, it’s great explanation and very true. I will not go without. Your body uses it 300 Times a second on the cellular level. It does just about everything. Much more than pain. Blood pressure, strong bones and teeth , it also makes the arteries in your heart and veins more elastic like they were when we were kids and young adults. So basically your chances of having heart disease lessons and it keeps your circulatory system in much better working condition by taking magnesium. Taking vitamin D3 not only helps with depression, pain and strong bones, it also is needed to be taken with all your other vitamins and supplements to be evenly distributed around your body. Recently came across this info, incase anyone else was not aware of this info on D3 and magnesium. So I will not take my vitamins and supplements without vitamin D3 at same time now
@My Love Is there any point in taking multi vitamins? I've bought some & they made me ill so I bought a bunch of separate vitamins including K2 to try, but they're all so huge! I have issues swallowing them all.

Synergy is basically the theory of multiple nutrients needed to be ingested because they need to be able to work together. Taking a magnesium pill could drive down other nutrients in your body that are low already causing disease. If you are well to do or have a relative that loves to garden you would be best to grow green vegetables especially vegetables such as broccoli to get the multiple nutrients that are needed. Increasing your magnesium without maintaining proper potassium levels could be a dire problem
No mention of Mg(OH)2? Inexpensive antacid. How well is that absorbed? Does it work for migraine? Is the laxative effect habituating?
My doctor just told me to start taking 500mg of this a day as I suffer from chronic pain from countless injuries throughout a very violent life as well as extreme anxiety and PTSD, lately I was experiencing taquacardia and bracacardia due to lowering my Clonazepam too quickly...... This lead to a level of terror even I have never experienced before.... I was waking up scared of what the day would bring, if I even slept, to going to bed in terror.... Last week my big toe went numb and I told him about the discomfort in the same leg.... It was as if he had an epiphany and said I needed to take the magnesium...... It's only been a few days of taking 400mg but tonight I'll be taking the recommend 500 as I had to wait for delivery...... I already feel a bit better but I'm getting a EKG and something else done later this week.... Oh and my numb toe has decreased...... I'll update this in a bit when I know more.... Thanks for the explanation, it helped.....

Thanks for your video. It gave me good information. Couples of months ago. I want to take magnesium L-threaonate for pain, anxiety, and sleep. So I asked my doctor to order my blood level of magnesium before I decide to take it. The result came back showed that my blood magnesium is within normal level. So I am now hesitated to take due to it may cause overdose. My doctor thinks it is OK to take but said I do not necessarily need it.
I had similar situation yrs ago but did research and learned physiological levels and therapeutic can be diff and My MD agreed also that there are limits to diagnostic tests. There are good studies on this. I’ve taken citrate then glycinate for many yrs and really find it helps with pain, sleep and anxiety. L-threaonate is good for brain function.
A gentle reminder that research has recently shown that “normal” levels are not optimal levels.
“ normal levels” were developed many decades ago, usually in reference to preventing a particular disease/ deficiency that was common in the first half of the last century.
Best of luck!✨
love how you describe it !! all along with the pictures of how it works on the brain. THANKS!!! I ll take magnesium and will visualize the pictures and your explanation

As an Alaskan, I used to cross country ski, mountain bike, hike, jog, was 5' 8" 130lbs, extremely fit. But started having progressive pain. A ton of prednisone & wt gain & a billion doctors & @15 yrs later diagnosed w/fibromyalgia. Put on Cymbalta & Lyrica, not helping the pain, gave other problems. I got off them. Was told by a friend about 15 yrs ago who is a cancer & AIDS researcher to use magnesium. I have & do and it helps. Take it at bed w/Vita-D. Helps a little. But as painful as it is, exercise in addition is also helpful.
Thanks Doctor for this informative video which is very interesting. May God bless you. 🙏🙏🙏

I went through so many invasive treatments only to realize I had central sensitization that mainly affects my lower pelvis. Sometimes I find the best help for CS is reducing stress and increasing exercise even on days when I don’t want to. It has made a massive difference in tampering down abnormal signals from my brain. However, it’s nice to have a little bit of help either pharmaceutically or in the form of supplements so I’m always interested to see these things. I was taking magnesium for constipation but to be honest, Things have been better for me lately and maybe I can attribute that to magnesium
HAVE THE SAME THING!!! I've never met anyone who has something similar to me. I have to take Lyrica and Naltrexone. I notice exercise (finally I can move) has reduced my pain which was horrific for a year and half. I'm just finally enjoying lower pain but my athleticism has gone down by 90 percent. I use to be a skier, hiker and biker. I can't even sit yet or drive. Message me anytime. I'm Laura Stollorz Schroeder. I take B12, Vitamin D, Fish oil and Vitamin A. I'm trying to get my body back and gain weight but it's been a challenge. I'm trying to be more positive. I love Micheal Sealey for Hypnosis on TH-cam. I would like to take Magnesium Malate.
In addition to magnesium, but a bunch of silicone scar gel and apply it all over your pelvis area 2x a day. It will restore the tissue, which has had excessive calcium and other minerals accumulate in it.

Does it work for you? and how much you take? and you also take Lyrica. So are these drugs have much of side effects ? Thank you Kally from Alberta
@@lauraschroeder8177 To be more specific, I developed interstitial cystitis from too many UTIs when I was young. Then I was given a nerve block which unfortunately irritated my pudendal nerve and then I end up with something horrible called pudendal neuralgia. Of course you can add pelvic floor dysfunction on top of that which generally develops when you have excessive nerve pain. I was a mountain biker before all this happened, and as you can imagine, with these conditions it can be excruciating to sit on a bike seat. Some people would tell me it’s even damaging, but I have found that with the right bike set up and slow return to my favorite activities, I can ride Pretty much pain-free now. I just have to use a special saddle and I’m good. It wasn’t easy at first, you’re always gonna have a bit more pain when trying to get back into activity when you’re this sensitive. I would consider myself 80% better. I have people contacting me all the time from support groups because they can’t believe I’m sitting on a bike and doing better from some thing supposedly so incurable. I tell them I use mind-body approaches but that it’s not an overnight fix. It’s a constant maintenance.
