why do something healthy when you can let the pharmaceutical companies use your body as a toxic dumping ground? my bp was high lke 190 over 100 ! i had cramps all over my body not just the legs! i never sleep at night anymore SO about 3 months ago i started using magnesium ! i just took my bp and its now 115 over 74 ! i have no cramping and i sleep at night! i am so glad i saw sites like this one !
Do you realise statistics show people with high BP live longer ? Full double blind trials show excess salt lowers BP not raises it at all? There is no reason to even measure it. If your BP is high it’s temporary while your body heals something. Same deal with HDL/LDL. Your body sends out LDL to repair faulty arteries/veins after repairs HDL comes back. So if LDL is high do not take a pill just wait a month until repairs are complete and it will go down again.
I’m 52. This year is the first time that I ever had anxiety/panic attacks in my life. I’ve been taking magnesium for a couple of months and my anxiety has greatly reduced. You should give it a try if you’re having an issue with anxiety.
try mag glycinate chelate on your next refill- dr. best works well. i have tried pure brand too which is quality- but not a chelated form. I sleep deeper on the chelate so I think it is better. How is your diet and exercise looking? drugs/alcohol use? any other supplements?
@@tia7765 Before bed for sleep. I can also take a Mag. Glycinate CHELATE in the AM, and 1 or 2 an hour before bed. Words great! All my docts support this.
The problem with asking a independent doctor is, most of them are getting kickbacks on writing prescriptions , plus they know very little about trying to get their patients off drugs. That’s the way I see it.
I started taking magnesium 3 days so far. Restless leg always bothered me at night. Same with heart palpitations. Now my legs are relaxed and heart beats normally when laying down. I can finally get to sleep much easier. Also I feel relax. I take a magnesium complex. So far so good. Also noticed Anxiety has simmered down. Edit: I wrote this before watching and this was all experience I had and he says them all. So thankfully is not placebo and they’re actually helping me.
What’s resolved my Restless Leg Syndrome is taking low level (29 mg) iron supplements. My RLS had been getting worse until I finally saw in the literature they hand out every time I donate blood, that RLS can be a symptom of low iron levels in the brain and they recommend an iron supplement or a multivitamin with iron. It works! I’ve dropped the prescriptions for Gabapentin and Ropinerole that I had tried previously for RLS. Neither were as effective as a cheap Over The Counter iron supplement.
@@margaretmarshall3645 damn see that’s what’s wrong with doctors nowadays. Instead of actually finding the cause they put you on multiple drugs when all you needed was a iron supplement. Nice to know it works. Might try a iron supplement myself because my RLS came back.
I used to have really bad anxiety before I started taking magnesium in a powder form , I originally got it for my muscle pain and aches that kept me from sleeping and after I started taking magnesium my muscles felt more relaxed I slept so much better and my anxiety went away I suddenly felt peace and tranquillity throughout my daily life .
I've stopped taking magnesium now and sleep like a baby at night, I just take a vit d3 tablet every day on its own and have not had any viruses for years and my hair's thicker and I'm in very good health overall at 66yrs old...🌻🌻
Overdosing/toxicity of Vitamin D3 will cause depletion of magnesium. Happened to me. Been supplementing now with magnesium glycinate. BP is starting to not be so high anymore and hardly any heart palpitations since taking Mg glycinate in the last week.
Hi would you let me know how much magnesium glycinate you take please. I see you can buy it on line, but it all seems in big doses . I definitely want to take magnesium glycinate for eptopics and also sleep 😁
@@stevenrobertson7643 I was taking 25,000 IU for about 3-4 months. Blood level was 106 in late November of 2021. Have since stopped taking D3. Will retake blood test probably around June of this year. Never suffered from high BP until taking overdose of Vitamin D3, which depleted my store of magnesium, which in turn had me at 160/90 along with heart palpitations. I'm 52 and up until my toxicity of D3, my BPs were always around 110/70. Since taking Mag Glycinate, my BPs are back to normal. Will have to keep taking Mag until my D3 level drops. If you have anymore questions, please contact me again. Hope this helps. :)
Speaking about anxitety reduction. I few days ago a friend gave me a few capsules of Ashwagangha in his original bottle. On the bottle it says: helps increase resistance to stress/anxiety. It's a herb. Never tried it before. But I don't have much stress/anxiety ... I take a calcium/magnesium/ vitamin D3 supplement... I hear info from you that nobody else I herd talking about magnesium ever mentioned. Or maybe I was not very attentive. I mean: irregular heart beat, anxiety, blood pressure...
That's great to know....I am looking forward to taking this product... currently, my heart rate beats around 103 bpm at rest. My magnesium levels has been low or below normal for the last six months.... The Dr has not recommended any supplements, they just give me magnesium in my veins before my immunotherapy treatments. I believe God allowed me to see this video! Thank you.
arrhythmia at night when trying to go to sleep (at age 25/26) is when I started taking magnesium citrate. I've been taking it for 20 years almost. And I've never had another issue with it. It also helps with being "regular".
Thank you for sharing this information. I’m taking bp medication and want to take magnesium for anxiety but I’m afraid to since I’m taking bp meds. I’ll ask my dr. if it’s safe for me. Thank you so much! 👍🏼😊
Thanks! It’s missing L-Threonate magnesium for Memory & dementia prevention. It brakes, the blood brain barrier. But I like the idea of having one product for 3 of the best magnesiums, the rest I can do without.
FINALLY! A clear explanation of magnesium. I spent three days in the emergency room because my magnesium levels were dangerously low. They got me back up to where everything is level and then I completely changed my diet. Now after three months I go in for a regular check up and my magnesium level is right where it supposed to be! The only thing that confuses me is I take magnesium oxide, which is what the doctor gave me. But I keep reading articles saying that I can’t drink milk or have any dairy products within two hours before or two hours after taking the supplement. Well actually, I go to 20 different websites and a few of them will say I can’t consume dairy whilst others say it doesn’t matter. In fact, I asked three doctors two of them said it doesn’t make any difference and one of them said do not wash down your supplements with milk. I’m so confused.
Magnesium oxide is the least absorbed, about 4%. I take magnesium malate in the morning, 230 mg and magnesium bisglycinate at night, 231mg. The malate helps energize and help pain, and the bisglyinate helps calm with no tummy affects.
Magnesium and calcium compete for absorption. Best to take them separately. And magnesium oxide has poor absorption already, I suggest magnesium glycinate for bed time to take separately from all other minerals
Ask your doctor if health is right for you. LOL. I'm going with Mg supplements, along with ashwaghanda, SAMe, l-theanine, GABA, getting a good night's sleep, deep breathing, regular exercise, a low-carb diet with plenty of greens and nuts, and doing something I enjoy every single day.
I’ve been on daily ionic magnesium supplements for 3 months and my blood pressure went from 130s to 110s. I also started a potassium supplement and St John’s Wart and cut out about 1/3 of my carb intake around the same time.
We're learning now that high blood pressure can be lowered when you improve your metabolic health and insulin sensitivity. People who eat poor diets high in sugar and unhealthy carbohydrates are prone to developing insulin resistance (and high blood pressure).
I had symptoms of dangerously low magnesium and went to the doctors multiple times.. I was never tested for magnesium serum levels.. there wasn't even ever a peep from the doctors.. was always given a clean bill of health despite my symptoms..
Yes when I soak my feet in epsum salt felt very tired and bones became brittle. Bone started cracking and popping sound. After I supplemented 500mg magnesium initially was good bit after 25 days bones became brittle and weak. Soundy joints. I aslo supplement vit d3 k2 zinc.. Etc. Can anyone suggest what is the problem
Why do some young people have high anxiety? Social media and the media in general. Those of you who are grounded by your faith know exactly what I mean. Thank you so much Dr. Story for this video...many blessings to you.
Mag chloride 64. What the doctor had me take along with flecainide and metoprolo.That seems ok, didn't notice anything. I took magnesium citrate 100, twice a day , because I ran out. I didn't realize that was a mistake. And it didn't really help constipation
I started taking Naturelo’s Magnesium glycinate chelate. I feel much calmer and have overall less anxiety. But I started waking up at night to pee more than once and I wake up drenched in sweat. I stopped taking Magnesium for just a day and I had uninterrupted sleep and no night sweats. How does this work?
There is no down below information. Furthermore, it would have been nice if you had held the bottle still of the calcium supplement you were recommending instead of waiving it all around in your hand.
My numbers for mag was 2.5 my doc said i had to stop because it was over limit… i do have high bp low dose of amlophine 5mg…it is controlled but I am trying to get off the med! But she told me to stop taking my mag??!! And I am recovering from anxiety! Lol its like why she make me stop?! Too much mag? Messes up heart?
I started taking magnesium at night and while it helps me sleep, I’ve had such vivid dreams/nightmares that those wake me up! I guess it’s a sign I’m in deep sleep but that’s causing stress in itself.
@@brittyn I'm going to stop taking magnesium it's making me tired through the day/ I take it for calming my jaw due to painful TMJ caused by night grinding now I find my deep sleep with dreams due to mag is making me grind the same. Plus fe lethargic through the day.
Ruth here, l take magnesium but my numbers were still up , 150/60, so l finally cut coffee 😢 this morn it was 123 over around 60, well, l hate giving up my coffee, decaf won't work, afraid it will have glutin in it so...
What do you suggest to someone whose bp lowers and experiences shortness of breath after taking magnesium of amounts 50 or less mg? I don't supplement it and I only get maybe half daily recommended value in my diet. I love hearing all the benefits but the reactions and fear I've experienced is so frustrating and concerning.
Great video very informative thanks ,would you recommend magnisium citrate , with codeine as I take codeine due to a car accident I was in so il worried both together could cause low blood pressure . Thanks I’m advance from Uk 😄
I am agree with this. I take this supplement every day and I am still at low average. I also take Vitamin because I am low normal wiry that as well. It's a balancing act every day.
Thanks for this important message, esp relating to heart health I like to put liquid magnesium citrate into my drinking water in the morning and then I have my magnesium for and throughout the day. I found out the RDA of elemental magnesium and then add enough magnesium citrate to supply 1/2 of that RDA of elemental magnesium. in the past this has cured heart arrhythmian caused by stress. DIY Energy Drink - 16 ounces Vitamin Water, 5 grams Ribose, 1/2 eyedropper of B12 and B-vitamin, 1oz Magnesium Citrate from Walmart pharmacy laxative isle, 1 gram Liv-On liposomal C, 1 gram beta alanine. (Note: beta alanine may cause capillary expansion and small itching. placing too much beta alanine on the skin or the scalp can make a person turn red all over.) Blood Pressure - massive dose garlic drops mine. The garlic must be hot enough to burn on the way down.
MISSIONCAT, you are absolutely taking the WRONG magnesium. You should take magnesium glycinate. Watch Dr. SANJAY Gupta, Cardiologist from York. He is a wonderful, informative cardiologist.
I just took this up with my doctors 😐. All the supplements packages 📦 suggest this and since I was a Chronic person,I am under doctors medication:,I don't want anything that counter or reacts with the meds,so we (my doctor and I) will be doing a blood test at my next visit; to see if its necessary , I can take any of these or what supplements and vitamins is needed. Having watch your videos Doc,I could have the chat with my doctor I noticed though that Magnesium is often suggested to be used even with people like diabetics. Good work Doc
Hi Adam, I love the sound of this product. I’m using magnesium at the moment but it’s not working so well. After watching your video I went straight to the site to order a bottle to try, especially with 20% discount. Unfortunately for some reason they don’t seem to ship to the UK. Is there a particular reason why ???? Or is there an alternative way to order. Phone not possible. Thanks for your time.
My Blood pressure & diet have been good. And taking Magnesium will often make me feel my pressure drops down too much while laying down / sleeping, when i get up at night.
I have been taking 20000 iu d3 200 mj2 for the winther every day, and never had issues. But been taking them May and June until today where i learned to much d3 can deplete magnesium. So now I take once a week and aupplement magnesium.. (also startes working at a graveyard tending graves in the sun).. had cramps a few times, today a strong one.
hey great video and I'm a big vitamin and magnesium fan myself but just so you know I'm 53 if it wasn't for antidepressants I would probably go insane and have a nervous breakdown my 22-year-old same thing and we both take magnesium not saying it don't help but it certainly would not solve the problem I take magnesium every night before I go to bed magnesium glycinate itfor my daughter I think it does help me relax a little bit at night but definitely does not replace taking antidepressant and I take all kind of supplements so medicine a tool there's nothing wrong with it if you need it
I bought Magic Magnesium Malate 800mg from New Nordic. I took just 1 tablet a day to begin. After 4 days I had to stop as I was feeling really bad, like collapsing.
There are many different kinds of magnesium’s available.. but you have to see which one is best for you.. if your taking more then what you need then it will lower ur blood pressure hence maybe that’s why u felt how u did.
@@therealityofthings9574 I believe magnesium can build up to possibly toxic levels when kidney function is poor. That's what I've heard or read. You could ask your doctor for his opinion.
@@gyffjogofl7676 There are various experts (e.g. Dr. Berg) that claim we need 4200 mg of potassium per day but I'm not convinced. I think it's one of those ideas that's been propagated and repeated to the point that people start to believe it.
@@gyffjogofl7676 There is a routine blood test for potassium. Get the test and see if your level is low or not. According to cardiologist Dr. William Davis, a potassium blood test is reliable and will show whether your value is too low or too high or just right. Note: There is a routine blood test for magnesium as well, but it is not a reliable indicator of whether you have enough magnesium in your blood cells. A more reliable way to tell is to get a RBC Mg test (which stands for red blood cell magnesium). But again, as per Dr. Davis, a routine potassium test is indeed accurate and reliable. And in his experience most people find they have a perfectly normal potassium value and you can bet all these people are not consuming 4200 mg of potassium per day.
Where is the Magnesium L- Threonate form of magnesium in your recommended biOptimizers supplement? My understanding is that this L- Threonate form is the only form that crosses the blood-brain barrier.
Anxiety : low to non existent Depression : low Sleep quality : higher Palpitations : less frequent Muscle cramps : diminished Sports endurance : leveled up Colds/flus : non existent Supplements: Magnesium bisglycinate + Vitamin D If in contact with viruses or colds ,flus etc.. kids bringing them home or work colleagues I get some zinc and vitamin C into me for a few days .. Has worked for the last 3 + years
I just took 420mg of magnesium glycinate and my heart palpitations stopped but my blood pressure is 110/57. That should be okay but I'd be nervous about taking more.
I think for females, the RDA(recommended daily allowance) is from 310mg-320mg, 420mg is for adult males. Have you been okay since then? Continued to take them?
Would you agree, Supplement dosage varies from person to person as everyone is different (what works for one may not for another); for me tweaking helped to find what dose works; so I upped Mag Citrate 150 … and tried instead Mag Malate 400 (for better absorption) - OMG terrible, queasy nausea, loose stools (welcome to my Mag OD); so cut the chalky supplement in half taking 200 albeit less drama still discontinued it and back on Citrate 150.

"Ask your doctor if health is right for you." - - This is golden, Adam. I thought this video was one of your all time classics. Really good information. Now, do a video on a pinched nerve in the left part of the spine which makrs pulling my head back and looking to the left very painful and tingles the left hand---the cause seems to just sleeping weird. I have been combating it with hourly stretching at a pain level of near 10 with hyperventilating for the pain, but maybe just rest, or maybe both is needed to heal it as soon as possible . I am not the chiropractor, and I don't even play one on RUclips or TV.
26 years old, been having panic attacks and anxiety attacks throughout 4 years, gonna take this tonight and will update . Also scared to take it because I’m thinking it’ll speed up my heart rate for unknown reasons lol.
I became addicted to antidepressant. I can't sleep without antidepressant. so can i use magnesium glycinate for sleep as i have stopped taking antidepressant ???
Great reference that explains the tug of war between calcium and magnesium. I think you could have been more up front about the supplement being plugged and/or mention it less. That said, I appreciate your video.
There's a notification at the top left of the video stating that it's a sponsored video. I can't mention it "less" because then it wouldn't satisfy the sponsor. The sponsor pays to have it's product mentioned. If I don't mention them, then what's the point of them sponsoring the channel. If you don't like the product per se, buy another product that has the same amount/contents. You might find one or you might not. Honestly, it's a good product, but go research stuff and see if you find something else you'd like.
@@AdamJStoryDC I missed the notification because I’m not looking at the screen. You could just say it’s a paid sponsor. That’s what I’m used to hearing.
Magnesium glycinate works well for general purpose use and is well absorbed, magnesium l-threonate to improve cognition - the best at crossing the brain blood barrier.
Ahh I just started both these types of magnesium. Now after watching this video , I’m curious about my calcium intake as a menopause woman. I previously drank milk as I like Milk but for the last 2 years I’ve stopped with the milk products. But these 2 types of magnesium seems to be a plus in my life. More time and I can be certain.

not a single doctor ever suggested mag to me, i discovered it on my own at 37 lol. Anxiety went from 95 to 20 out of 100.
Because they bow to big pharma. See a naturopath
because mag is dirt cheap.. they aint profitable to those witch doctor.. that is why
Had heart extrabeats for years. Not a single cardiologist suggested mag. Now with mag supplement it’s much more better

What is the brand of magnesium. And also is it true you can only take magnesium L -Threonate for 3 weeks and go off for 3 weeks

After I supplemented 500mg magnesium initially was good bit after 25 days bones became brittle and weak. Soundy joints. I aslo supplement vit d3 k2 zinc.. Etc. Can anyone suggest what is the problem
Thank you. This was very informative.
What about magnesium glycinate. My doctor recommended to take 500 mg because I have issues with muscles and spasms.
Love it and recommend it
Why do some young people have high anxiety? Social media and the media in general. Those of you who are grounded by your faith know exactly what I mean. Thank you so much Dr. Story for this video...many blessings to you.
I personally think anxiety begins with worry, over thinking just over burdens your soul and heart.
Mouthwash. Also listen to Dr. Berg talk about it on his channel.
@@sanca5982 Child abuse and childhood trauma can cause anxiety.
@@ilax4244you’re right!!!
Mag chloride 64. What the doctor had me take along with flecainide and metoprolo.That seems ok, didn't notice anything. I took magnesium citrate 100, twice a day , because I ran out. I didn't realize that was a mistake. And it didn't really help constipation
I started taking Naturelo’s Magnesium glycinate chelate. I feel much calmer and have overall less anxiety. But I started waking up at night to pee more than once and I wake up drenched in sweat. I stopped taking Magnesium for just a day and I had uninterrupted sleep and no night sweats. How does this work?
I'd try taking the Mg in the morning and if that doesn't work, take half the dose.
I have been told by my neurologist not to take mg
because it interferes with carbodopa-levodopa.
Do your own research please!
What is that, karbodopa-levidopa ?
Please answer my question. Im from indonesia. Thank's
There is no down below information. Furthermore, it would have been nice if you had held the bottle still of the calcium supplement you were recommending instead of waiving it all around in your hand.
Is it safe to take magnesium glycinate supplements along with hypertension medication such as nebivolol?
I take a calcium channel blocker for b p.can i still take my magnesium 5:34
I drink aspirin can i take magnesium
I started taking magnesium L Threonate. Is it true you can on take it for 3 weeks and then sto for 3 weeks?
Why don’t the doctors tell you to take magnesium instead of calcium channel blockers?
Great question!!
I do my own research and no meds for me but nourishment. My husband is down to two meds (was on 13!
Thank you so much for sharing🙏
You are so welcome
My numbers for mag was 2.5 my doc said i had to stop because it was over limit… i do have high bp low dose of amlophine 5mg…it is controlled but I am trying to get off the med! But she told me to stop taking my mag??!! And I am recovering from anxiety! Lol its like why she make me stop?! Too much mag? Messes up heart?
Can consuming magnesium oxide causes your taste bud different? Food taste kinda bland-ish
I started taking magnesium at night and while it helps me sleep, I’ve had such vivid dreams/nightmares that those wake me up! I guess it’s a sign I’m in deep sleep but that’s causing stress in itself.
Same here and I feel dizzy as well. Do you have any suggestions on when it's best to take them?
@@tia7765 are you taking glycinate?
No citrate
@@tia7765 try glycinate right before bed.
@@brittyn I'm going to stop taking magnesium it's making me tired through the day/ I take it for calming my jaw due to painful TMJ caused by night grinding now I find my deep sleep with dreams due to mag is making me grind the same. Plus fe lethargic through the day.
So true that me I have that problem too🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Ruth here, l take magnesium but my numbers were still up , 150/60, so l finally cut coffee 😢 this morn it was 123 over around 60, well, l hate giving up my coffee, decaf won't work, afraid it will have glutin in it so...
I like how you explain. Thanks so much
What do you suggest to someone whose bp lowers and experiences shortness of breath after taking magnesium of amounts 50 or less mg? I don't supplement it and I only get maybe half daily recommended value in my diet. I love hearing all the benefits but the reactions and fear I've experienced is so frustrating and concerning.
Am taking amvask 2.5, for my BP is it possible to add magnesium? Thx Doc.
What if you supplement Margaritas and Whiskey a few nights a week too? Still ok to dabble in the arts of magnesium?
Another Awesome video Thanks Much Love ❤❤❤

Hi. Can I ask what is the best type of Magnesium to take for gout?
Great video very informative thanks ,would you recommend magnisium citrate , with codeine as I take codeine due to a car accident I was in so il worried both together could cause low blood pressure . Thanks I’m advance from Uk 😄
doesn't interfere, but always ask your doctor.
@@AdamJStoryDC thankyou
Thanks doc awesome vid
I am agree with this. I take this supplement every day and I am still at low average.
I also take Vitamin because I am low normal wiry that as well.
It's a balancing act every day.
Magnesium does help me sleep so I take it at night.
No one is saying what magnesium they take. for magnesium
What about Magnesium Aspartate?
Thanks for this important message, esp relating to heart health
I like to put liquid magnesium citrate into my drinking water in the morning and then I have my magnesium for and throughout the day. I found out the RDA of elemental magnesium and then add enough magnesium citrate to supply 1/2 of that RDA of elemental magnesium. in the past this has cured heart arrhythmian caused by stress.
DIY Energy Drink -
16 ounces Vitamin Water, 5 grams Ribose, 1/2 eyedropper of B12 and B-vitamin, 1oz Magnesium Citrate from Walmart pharmacy laxative isle, 1 gram Liv-On liposomal C, 1 gram beta alanine.
(Note: beta alanine may cause capillary expansion and small itching. placing too much beta alanine on the skin or the scalp can make a person turn red all over.)
Blood Pressure - massive dose garlic drops mine. The garlic must be hot enough to burn on the way down.
May I ask what's vitamin water? And where can I get the best price for Liv-on liposomal vit C ? Appreciate it 🙏
MISSIONCAT, you are absolutely taking the WRONG magnesium. You should take magnesium glycinate. Watch Dr. SANJAY Gupta, Cardiologist from York. He is a wonderful, informative cardiologist.
@@mimirose5909 love Dr Sanja Gupta (York Cardiology) His videos have helped me so much!
@@joyceelmer131 yes, he is a sweetheart.
I just took this up with my doctors 😐.
All the supplements packages 📦 suggest this and since I was a Chronic person,I am under doctors medication:,I don't want anything that counter or reacts with the meds,so we (my doctor and I) will be doing a blood test at my next visit; to see if its necessary , I can take any of these or what supplements and vitamins is needed.
Having watch your videos Doc,I could have the chat with my doctor
I noticed though that Magnesium is often suggested to be used even with people like diabetics.
Good work Doc
Magnesium glycinate is the best form to take. I have tried most of them.
Thank you for your excellent advice put in a way we can relate to easily,
You are so welcome
Hi Adam, I love the sound of this product. I’m using magnesium at the moment but it’s not working so well. After watching your video I went straight to the site to order a bottle to try, especially with 20% discount. Unfortunately for some reason they don’t seem to ship to the UK. Is there a particular reason why ???? Or is there an alternative way to order. Phone not possible. Thanks for your time.
They don't ship because they're an American based company and due to "you-know-what-that-we're-all-still-afraid-of" there's issues with exports.
My Blood pressure & diet have been good. And taking Magnesium will often make me feel my pressure drops down too much while laying down / sleeping, when i get up at night.
Is Calcium eve required outside of the bones?
Doctor I didn't see your link.
Do not see any Threonate and not in Liposomal delivery form
I have been taking 20000 iu d3 200 mj2 for the winther every day, and never had issues. But been taking them May and June until today where i learned to much d3 can deplete magnesium. So now I take once a week and aupplement magnesium.. (also startes working at a graveyard tending graves in the sun).. had cramps a few times, today a strong one.
What is the name of the product thank you
see description
1:20 or so, having your bones being used for calcium, that sounds extremely bad, am i mistaken?
hey great video and I'm a big vitamin and magnesium fan myself but just so you know I'm 53 if it wasn't for antidepressants I would probably go insane and have a nervous breakdown my 22-year-old same thing and we both take magnesium not saying it don't help but it certainly would not solve the problem I take magnesium every night before I go to bed magnesium glycinate itfor my daughter I think it does help me relax a little bit at night but definitely does not replace taking antidepressant and I take all kind of supplements so medicine a tool there's nothing wrong with it if you need it
I bought Magic Magnesium Malate 800mg from New Nordic. I took just 1 tablet a day to begin. After 4 days I had to stop as I was feeling really bad, like collapsing.
You mean like you got dizzy?
Please reply
There are many different kinds of magnesium’s available.. but you have to see which one is best for you.. if your taking more then what you need then it will lower ur blood pressure hence maybe that’s why u felt how u did.
Magnesium is good for stomach acid ????
Magnesium could be problematic if you have compromised kidney function. If in doubt, get your creatinine level and eGFR checked.
Why is magnesium bad if you have bad kidneys ?
@@therealityofthings9574 I believe magnesium can build up to possibly toxic levels when kidney function is poor. That's what I've heard or read. You could ask your doctor for his opinion.
does it help in case of missing heart beats?
is that PVC ? There are great reviews on it all over the internet,
Potassium, you need 4200 every day
@@gyffjogofl7676 There are various experts (e.g. Dr. Berg) that claim we need 4200 mg of potassium per day but I'm not convinced. I think it's one of those ideas that's been propagated and repeated to the point that people start to believe it.
@@Malcolm-Achtman RDA is 4200, that's all I know. I'm here to learn.
@@gyffjogofl7676 There is a routine blood test for potassium. Get the test and see if your level is low or not. According to cardiologist Dr. William Davis, a potassium blood test is reliable and will show whether your value is too low or too high or just right. Note: There is a routine blood test for magnesium as well, but it is not a reliable indicator of whether you have enough magnesium in your blood cells. A more reliable way to tell is to get a RBC Mg test (which stands for red blood cell magnesium). But again, as per Dr. Davis, a routine potassium test is indeed accurate and reliable. And in his experience most people find they have a perfectly normal potassium value and you can bet all these people are not consuming 4200 mg of potassium per day.
I started to take magnesium recently. It helped my mental state. I could feel in my bones. What about magnesium dependency in the long run?
Where is the Magnesium L- Threonate form of magnesium in your recommended biOptimizers supplement? My understanding is that this L- Threonate form is the only form that crosses the blood-brain barrier.
I drank an electrolyte drink yesterday and last night I had the most vivid dreams. I blame magnesium.
Anxiety : low to non existent
Depression : low

If in contact with viruses or colds ,flus etc.. kids bringing them home or work colleagues I get some zinc and vitamin C into me for a few days ..
Has worked for the last 3 + years
You should be taking k2 mk7 if you’re taking vitamin D
Take K2 with vitamin D3 or you will calcify your arteries.
You need K2. Also, Cod Liver Oil is better then the D3 pills for many reasons.
THANK YOU SIR, LOVE YOU
So nice of you
I just took 420mg of magnesium glycinate and my heart palpitations stopped but my blood pressure is 110/57. That should be okay but I'd be nervous about taking more.
I think for females, the RDA(recommended daily allowance) is from 310mg-320mg, 420mg is for adult males. Have you been okay since then? Continued to take them?
@Marquo Reign yes, I've been taking 840mg at night and it's fine. Thanks 😊
There’s a big difference between “magnesium” and “elemental magnesium”, which many brands fail to list.
Thank you Dr. Story. God bless you.
You're most welcome
Thanks for this info. You should have discussed supplement dosing, especially since you said too much could be problematic.
Would you agree, Supplement dosage varies from person to person as everyone is different (what works for one may not for another); for me tweaking helped to find what dose works; so I upped Mag Citrate 150 … and tried instead Mag Malate 400 (for better absorption) - OMG terrible, queasy nausea, loose stools (welcome to my Mag OD); so cut the chalky supplement in half taking 200 albeit less drama still discontinued it and back on Citrate 150.

He said he takes 2 a day of the supplement he recommends. So I was curious too and will see what the recommended dosage is on the bottle.

I thought this video was one of your all time classics. Really good information.
Now, do a video on a pinched nerve in the left part of the spine which makrs pulling my head back and looking to the left very painful and tingles the left hand---the cause seems to just sleeping weird. I have been combating it with hourly stretching at a pain level of near 10 with hyperventilating for the pain, but maybe just rest, or maybe both is needed to heal it as soon as possible . I am not the chiropractor, and I don't even play one on RUclips or TV.

I became addicted to antidepressant. I can't sleep without antidepressant. so can i use magnesium glycinate for sleep as i have stopped taking antidepressant ???
Great reference that explains the tug of war between calcium and magnesium. I think you could have been more up front about the supplement being plugged and/or mention it less. That said, I appreciate your video.
There's a notification at the top left of the video stating that it's a sponsored video. I can't mention it "less" because then it wouldn't satisfy the sponsor. The sponsor pays to have it's product mentioned. If I don't mention them, then what's the point of them sponsoring the channel. If you don't like the product per se, buy another product that has the same amount/contents. You might find one or you might not. Honestly, it's a good product, but go research stuff and see if you find something else you'd like.
@@AdamJStoryDC I missed the notification because I’m not looking at the screen. You could just say it’s a paid sponsor. That’s what I’m used to hearing.
@@AdamJStoryDC good information regardless.
@@namepending155 You'd have to look at the screen whilst watching the video.
Magnesium glycinate works well for general purpose use and is well absorbed, magnesium l-threonate to improve cognition - the best at crossing the brain blood barrier.
Ahh I just started both these types of magnesium. Now after watching this video , I’m curious about my calcium intake as a menopause woman. I previously drank milk as I like Milk but for the last 2 years I’ve stopped with the milk products. But these 2 types of magnesium seems to be a plus in my life. More time and I can be certain.
