Dr Berg notes: Magnesium is vital for the following: •Energy production •Vitamin D function •Vitamin K2 function •Preventing kidney stones •Heart health •Blood pressure •Preventing muscle cramps •Preventing migraines •Sleep Magnesium supplements contain different forms of magnesium. Let’s take a look at them, starting with the worst. 1. The worst magnesium - Magnesium oxide is the worst yet most common magnesium supplement. It only has a 4% absorption rate. It’s also very expensive! 2. Magnesium sulfate has a 10% absorption rate and a high laxative effect. It may help relax your muscles superficially. 3. Magnesium orotate has a 15% absorption rate. This form of magnesium can penetrate the cell and increase energy. Magnesium orotate also works as an antioxidant and supports the DNA. 4. Magnesium taurate has a 20% absorption rate and supports heart health, blood pressure, and the nervous system. 5. Magnesium lactate has a 25% absorption rate and is more gentle on the GI system. It supports the cardiovascular system and can improve energy. Magnesium lactate is often used topically, which may be beneficial for your muscles. 6. Magnesium citrate has a 30% absorption rate. It can help prevent kidney stones and is good for cardiovascular issues and blood pressure. It can also help with detoxification. 7. Magnesium malate has a 40% absorption rate. It’s beneficial for chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. 8. Magnesium threonate has a 75% absorption rate. It supports cognitive function and is a good form of magnesium for sleep. 9. The best magnesium - Magnesium glycinate is the most absorbable type of magnesium. There are a lot of magnesium glycinate benefits. It’s gentle on the GI system, helps prevent muscle spasms, supports sleep and relaxation, and reduces stress. Magnesium glycinate may help relieve migraines and won’t interfere with other minerals. Consider taking 400 mg of magnesium glycinate each night as a maintenance dose. Double this for a therapeutic dose and take throughout the day Thank you Dr Berg! 🐱👍🏿

Vitamin D and Magnesium. I suffered from chronic back pain especially lower back for decades. My lower back pain was prominent in the morning after I sat up in bed and then first stood up. After taking 10 to 12,000 IUs of D3 and 800 to 1000 mg of magnesium (citrate and glycinate) a day for 6 months I no longer have back pain especially first thing in the morning. Over a number of decades I have spent tens of thousands on various medical treatments with minimal effect.
Same, I spent a fortune trying to cure my Chronic Fatigue Syndrome before I finally learned from Dr. Berg just recently that I've been desperately deficient in VITAMINS and minerals all my adult life. No CFS doctor ever told me to take vitamin D!! That's half the battle won right there. And I was told that I was severely allergic to yeast, therefore not to take multivitamins or b vitamins or fortified cereals. Well, once I started megadosing on b vitamins my brain fog disappeared and I now have heaps more clear clean energy. Nutritional science is King 👑

Part of the reason has to do with insurance. Doctor has a time limit I believe of 15 minutes to spend with a patient. I believe certain protocols have to be observed by the medical industry. 😢
@@di4085 I agree insurance and Medicare has changed the landscape of medicine as well as the overall health of America. I worked at a hospital for nearly 43 years. Each year Congress would determine some kind of reimbursement rate and we would be notified by Medicare. Last couple of years, we were notified of 10% decrease in reimbursement. Then administration would ask each department to cut 10% across the board in employee hours, supplies, etc but increase patient census by 10%. So we frantically learned to adapt to do more with less. So you are right, doctors shouldn’t shoulder all the blame. Administration looks at inputs/outputs and determine “X”amount of patients scheduled each hour (in their eyes hopefully a well rounded mix of commercially insured patients, Medicare, self-insured, and non insured patients). This schedule hopefully pays all the bills including everyone’s salary from door greeters to 6 figure administrators. Then to add to the stress factor if a doctor decides he needs to spend more time with a particular patient and makes others wait, and oh no😱 someone writes a negative review, doctor receives an inquiring email from administration. Some doctors do choose to have more control of this knee-jerk-chain…and try to maintain their income status by forgoing the hierarchy and do a “concierge” service. I’ve seen some opt of Medicare, and actually seen some go back to house calls(even go to work place. But these individuals are far and few between. And the rat race continues…. Sorry for the novel.
This is a supplement sent from above. I’m overweight with foot and leg nerve issues that was causing me immense pain. Im still young in my 30’s. I discovered mag glycinate and miraculously my nerve pain disappeared. Mag for life!!!
@@rvo3333 Hi, I’m taking magnesium glycinate which I bought from Costco. It’s 250mg I believe. You can also opt to buy a better brand from a better vitamin store. I also take Omega 3 along with it since it has anti-inflammatory properties. I felt results almost within a week. Hope it works for you!
@@evan3087 Hi, Sure! I am using a Swedish brand called Pureness (the brand name is Puhdistamo in Finland) and the product is literally called Evening Magnesium (with 125 mg Magnesium Glycinate per capsule). Personally, I prefer magnesium glycinate due to its high absorption rate and it's also gentle on the stomach.
@@evan3087 Yes, two of those (250mg) before bedtime, and at least one additional capsule during the day (I want to get approx. 400 mg of magnesium/day). Yes, I take K2 as well. Typically together with Vitamine D3 in the morning. In terms of brands, I like Life Extension's Super K.
Amazing! I have been chasing this for years. Constantly in/out hospital for magnesium infusions. Magnesium glycolate, 5 times a day. (500mg) This has really helping me to get through the day. Thanks 👏🙏
Thank you and good morning! Always! I’m sticking to your advice with clean eating! I think it has fixed my brain! I don’t know how to describe it. Things are changing! Thank you, always!
I acknowledge all that the construction workers give to the rest of us. Trouble is they don't always have the best air to breathe. Toxins would be the big barrier that is holding down your health. Everyone is toxic to some degree these days. Study up on sauna detoxification that includes good doses of vitamins and minerals that replace the ones you lose in sweating.

I suffered for back pain for 5yrs then when i get the "magnesium glycinate 500mg". After i take this one i never have a back pain and my sleep is very good. I take 1 pill per night!
Magnesium glynicate is great for sleep but it wasn't working as well for me lately maybe because I was taking about 3 hours before bedtime. Last night I took one 100MG tablet about 40 minutes before bed and slept for 8.5 hours which was one of the best night's sleep I've had in weeks.
I started implementing what you suggested for vitamin D3/K2 and I told my Doctor who doesn't know anything about taking some good healthy Fats with the vitamin D 3 So I will be getting my lab work done in 3 months instead of 6 months. I can't wait for the results.❤ ❤❤❤
I dropped blood PRESSURE by getting grain out of my diet. (Corn and corn derivatives in everything. Especiallydrinks.) Just throwing it out there. Worked for me.
@@HollywoodbelongstothedevilGive up gluten and sugar for inflammation. Magnesium is relaxing muscles, doesn't take the pain from inflammation. Without carbs /sweets you have less to none inflammation.
I used to have restless leg syndrome at night. It would feel as though my muscles were flexing from around the bones, but not going through the whole flex, mostly my thighs. I would move legs to 'help finish the flex' but it never did! I started taking magnesium glycinate and it is a world of difference! I might have one night in a month, now, of RLS....whereas before it was every night of RLS. I started this about 2 yrs ago and I won't quit! Best thing I ever did for RLS.
Thank you sweet lord .I realize the drastic situation on earth right now is not your fault but rather the creation of a few greedy ,powersick maniac humans
Thank you dr berg. I've been taking 5k IU D3 + 1000 mcg K1 + K2 for 2 weeks now. Huge improvement on my energy level and sleep cycle. One thing I really noticed was my mental fortitude really improved. I will add the magnesium this week.
Thanks Doc, I have learned not to take 2 x magnesium glycinate in one hit at night, 2 hours before bed, and will spread that to one in the morning and one before bedtime.
YES! Started taking Magnesium Glycinate last year after being FLOXED by Levofloxacin and reading about it in a Reddit group. Was watching this video hoping it was high up on the list. :) However early on I was taking 400mg, now just 100mg not knowing what the recommended daily dosage was. Thank You!
How much of each form of magnesium is in each tablet? When the label lumps two or more ingredients together and neglects to itemize the amount of each one, I assume it's mostly the cheapest ingredient, and only small amounts of the others as a marketing ploy.
Great video. I’ve been taking a Magnesium Complex with 200mg Glycinate, 150mg Malate, 50mg citrate, and 100mg Taurate and I’ve been happy with it. I also try to eat magnesium rich foods like nuts, chicken, and bananas on a regular basis.
I have been looking for something with all the magnesium names and benefits. This is an awesome breakdown and you actually added the details. Wow! Gratitude Dr. Berg. I appreciate it. 💃🏽💃🏽💞💞
I add soil amendments that contain magnesium to my crops to get as much from food as I can and take magnesium glycinate before bed to help me sleep. It is worth the effort and expense for me.
nowhere else have I experienced a source of nutritional education that is as pragmatic, consistent, unbiased, well researched, and as clearly communicated as here on Dr. Berg's channel. That doesn't mean that other similar channels don't have the ability to provide good information, it just means that, imho, Dr. Berg's is the one that can be relied on.
I make magnesium bicarbonate by adding 1 tsp of magnesium hydroxide to 800 ml of carbonated water. I add that to the water I drink throughout the day. I recently also Learned that by mixing Apple cider vinegar with magnesium hydroxide that magnesium acetate is formed. You can also mix magnesium hydroxide with lemon juice to make magnesium citrate.
I'm trying to understand the dosing of the magnesium bicarbonate you make with a soda stream. I've seen you could take two 8 ounce glasses, take two swigs a day and I've seen 1 ounce. I don't want to over do but I think it's the best form.
It does seem sensible to have the reaction forming magnesium compounds externally, otherwise the reaction with your stomach acid is partly neutralizing the digestive juices, and the gas from that reaction will bloat you. I guess you could just dissolve a magnesium oxide tablet in a mixture of carbonated water with a dash of lemon juice and ACV to provide a mixture of compounds more easily absorbed and tolerated.
Dr. Berg, I’ve been following your channel for at least 3 years now, I am now 34 years old male from Burgas, Bulgaria, type 1 diabetic. I’ve implemented the knowledge I got from you and I’ve seen it works and I’ve even helped others with advices in regards of healthy keto and fasting. I even I tell my mom that you’re my doctor and she asks “do you speak to him?” And I reply “no but I feel him like my own personal doctor. “ By the way I am following your diet advice about the 7 healthiest foods, I’ve cut sugar off for the past few weeks, mu sugar levels are great, my insulin sensitivity is high, my sleep is a lot better , basically I feel great because of the information I got from you. You are the best and that was about me, I have a question for you in regard to magnesium - I am now taking 2 pills of 500mg Magnesium Bisglycinate chelate, what do you think about that type of magnesium? Thank you in advance! Love Lenny
Whats the best one for heart? I just discovered i have a 50% blockage. Also have severe panic attacks. Heart palpitations some times? Been watching you for a couple days. Thanks for all the help!!!
Doctor, when I took Magnesium Glycinate for the first time 5 months ago at one evening; the next morning, I had significant improvements. My focus, mental clarity, alertness...a significant decrease in mind wandering, stress, depression and anxiety. But the problem is, these improvements reduced quickly after. Even though I continued intaking this supplement for months. Now I don't experience any changes. Why is that?
Take a 2 week break. You won't be missing out on anything, since you say you are not experiencing results anyway. Then start again for a month, take another 2 weeks off, etc. Consider this strategy for all your supplements. Good luck!
I guess that is what you will get once the (cheap) magnesium oxide has had the antacid effect on stomach acid and reacted to become the chloride salt, so it may be the antacid effect that can cause digestive problems. Bioavailability appears to be the immediate absorption rather than how much total absorbed throughout the digestive tract - which seems to be adequate even for oxide.
Most people can’t handle oral magnesium and get the runs or stomach upset. I use magnesium chloride oil on my skin and have noticed the benefits so it does go into the blood because i noticed my bloodpressure dropped and my heart palpitations are almost as good as gone. There are also people that have done test with magnesium chloride foot soaks and there levels went up so i wish people stopped saying it does not get absorbed .
@@Courterfly i have a oil thats just water and magnesium chloride dissolved they call it magnesium oil because of the texture but it’s actually a brine
Sir you have mentioned cabbage juice as the best remedy for all digestion problems in one of your videos. I have 2 questions, can I take cabbage soup instead of juice since I couldn't find organic cabbage and also can I take it during intermittent fasting?
Hello sir , can you please guide as I am having severe cervical problems with neck and shoulder pain , along with random tension headaches, so which magnesium will work better and how much dose,,?? Thank you 🙏
I've been having bad cramps early in the morning for the past few weeks and knew something was wrong. Luckily, Dr. Berg's video today is about magnesium deficiency!
As the leading the Vitamin D Deficiency Channel - I just wanna say it was soo hard for one of my clients that I'm helping to reverse there deficiency to find a doctor to do the right magnesium test , this was in New York. The test is call intracellular magnesium test and it the best way to know your magnesium levels .While almost no doctor knew what it was. Magnesium is very very important for Vitamin D!
Hey Dr. Berg, you didn't mention Magnesium Lysinate? Is that the same as Glycinate? Maybe its called Lysinate Glycinate. Thank you for all your videos and helping me and my family feel much better. ❤️ Please keep feeding us this excellent knowledge. 😊
Great information!! We found magnesium with the following statement (as chelated magnesium glycinate buffered) Is this the good magnesium that is recommended?
@@wellinever1558 actually I was taking two tablets but I actually felt a weird sensation like my blood pressure is lowering so I decreased the dosage and now I'm all good. Since doctor berg himself recommends 100-400mg a day
Glycine mag. I take 400 to 800mg.a day. Along with Vitamin D3 5000iu and 100 mineral mgs V. K2 TO Help keep calcium out of my soft tissues. So it ends up in my bones. 😊
Oh right, that might be why I got "random" headaches a few times this past week. I had missed a few random days of magnesium when I took my D3. Thanks for your comment! 🎉
@@kittycat8222 Many prescriptions are for the cheapest suitable product. If the cheap one works for most people, try that first, and switch to another if there are issues.
Aspartate is derived from aspartame, not good. It's an excitotoxin, I believe? Not good for the brain, especially when magnesium should be calming to the nervous system.
Dear Dr. Eric Berg, first sorry for my English. Some days ago I listened carefully to the interview with Professor Bruce Hollis, a pioneer in vitamin D. Now when talking about Magnesium, Prof. Hollis clearly stated, he takes 400mg of Magnesium OXYDE ! I don’t understand why this was left there uncommented, when this RUclips contribution clearly states it is the worse magnesium compound. Thank you for any comment. Overall I absolutely appreciate your profound help you give in the nutrition context. Please continue this way 👏 Cheers wr
Worst bioavailability, but still the most cost effective if you are just topping up, and don't have any digestive malabsorption issues. Even if you are deficient, your body will tent to grab some of the magnesium available whenever it can find it. You are even supposed to be able to absorb some through the skin when bathing with epsom salts or dead sea salt. Apparently bioavailability is tested on rapid absorption rather than total absorption, so some more gets absorbed after reacting with stomach acid, etc. A combination of different magnesium compounds is probably best to provide both high bioavailbility/absorption, and minimal digestive issues if higher doses are required. Just by making some mg available to your body, you are likely to be better off than most people.
Thank you Dr. Berg! I take magnesium glycinate along with D3, K2, A and E and have noticed a huge difference in the way I feel as well as my blood pressure. In fact, I was able to get off of my BP meds. Also note, that it is important to take D with fat since it is a fat soluble vitamin.
Including magnesium glycinate and Threonate in high amount has been life changing. Still going through ridding my body of the excess calcium from vitamin D supplementation. 8 years, under doctor supervision…. Thank you for explaining the reason I am getting so much relief.
with all due respect, love your videos. I have tested Magensium Glycinate 400mg vs (Magnesium Oxide 90% with small addition Magnesium Citratre and Magnesium ascorbate) 800mg. And by surprise, for some reason. I have never felt so much flexibility after magnesium. This 3 ingredients combo makes magic. :) I recommend to test.
@@brothermine2292 Fair point, it probably takes a whole generation of Mental Health professionals to maintain your treatment program. Hope the drug side-effects are not too distressing for you. 👍
I will state some facts about me. When I have severe pain morphine doesn't even touch the sides of my pain whereas good old paracetamol works like a charm. Magnesium oxide helps me sleep better than magnesium glycinate, absolute facts for me. So there you have it not everything works the same for everyone!!
That's true. I started to get severe stomach and gut cramps after taking more than 600 mg Mg-Glycinate/d. Tried Citrate - same result. Now I try malate and it seems to be fine 🤞🏼
Those "doctors" are agent of the academy that will never want you healthy. They aren't aloud to speak any about minerals. In fact every govern-ment (mind control) claims that minerals aren't considered as health substance. 7:51
Magnesium Glycinate is amazing. I have been taking it every night for 2 years, and it really helps me sleep.Excellent video, Dr Berg. So many people buy the wrong kind of Mg.
Hello Dr berg I am watching you from pakistan we are blessed to have you you are amazing Dr berg make a video on glutathione supplements and their forms s acetyl glutathione vs liposomal which is better thankyou so much 🙂
1/8 tsp Mag glycinate consistently gives me an extra hour of deep sleep the nights I take it. Mix it in some hot cocoa hour before bed to mask the fish taste. Sometimes add 30mg zinc citrate too.
What about magnesium bicarbonate? (at least I *think* that’s what it is) I dissolve magnesium hydroxide in carbonated water. Is this well-absorbed? Thanks for all your great work!!!
@@Drberg thanks, but the article is about transdermal use of magnesium chloride, what about taking it orally? Here in Uruguay it's the most commonly used.

@@di4085 I agree insurance and Medicare has changed the landscape of medicine as well as the overall health of America. I worked at a hospital for nearly 43 years. Each year Congress would determine some kind of reimbursement rate and we would be notified by Medicare. Last couple of years, we were notified of 10% decrease in reimbursement. Then administration would ask each department to cut 10% across the board in employee hours, supplies, etc but increase patient census by 10%. So we frantically learned to adapt to do more with less. So you are right, doctors shouldn’t shoulder all the blame. Administration looks at inputs/outputs and determine “X”amount of patients scheduled each hour (in their eyes hopefully a well rounded mix of commercially insured patients, Medicare, self-insured, and non insured patients). This schedule hopefully pays all the bills including everyone’s salary from door greeters to 6 figure administrators. Then to add to the stress factor if a doctor decides he needs to spend more time with a particular patient and makes others wait, and oh no😱 someone writes a negative review, doctor receives an inquiring email from administration. Some doctors do choose to have more control of this knee-jerk-chain…and try to maintain their income status by forgoing the hierarchy and do a “concierge” service. I’ve seen some opt of Medicare, and actually seen some go back to house calls(even go to work place. But these individuals are far and few between. And the rat race continues….
Sorry for the novel.

This is a supplement sent from above. I’m overweight with foot and leg nerve issues that was causing me immense pain. Im still young in my 30’s. I discovered mag glycinate and miraculously my nerve pain disappeared. Mag for life!!!
Which one, please?
@@rvo3333 Hi, I’m taking magnesium glycinate which I bought from Costco. It’s 250mg I believe. You can also opt to buy a better brand from a better vitamin store. I also take Omega 3 along with it since it has anti-inflammatory properties. I felt results almost within a week. Hope it works for you!

Why should it be top priority? Just trying to understand the reason for your suggestion.
For the last 2 years, I've used Magnesium glycinate (250mg) before going to bed and it definitely makes me more relaxed.
Hi, can you please suggest the magnesium brand you take?
@@evan3087 Hi, Sure!
I am using a Swedish brand called Pureness (the brand name is Puhdistamo in Finland) and the product is literally called Evening Magnesium (with 125 mg Magnesium Glycinate per capsule).
Personally, I prefer magnesium glycinate due to its high absorption rate and it's also gentle on the stomach.
@@danielsundstrom1296 So you take two capsules of 125mg of magnesium glycinate? Do you also take K2?
@@evan3087 Yes, two of those (250mg) before bedtime, and at least one additional capsule during the day (I want to get approx. 400 mg of magnesium/day).
Yes, I take K2 as well. Typically together with Vitamine D3 in the morning. In terms of brands, I like Life Extension's Super K.
Amazing!
I have been chasing this for years.
Constantly in/out hospital for magnesium infusions.
Magnesium glycolate, 5 times a day. (500mg)
This has really helping me to get through the day.
Thanks 👏🙏
Very glad to be of help.
Thank you and good morning! Always! I’m sticking to your advice with clean eating! I think it has fixed my brain! I don’t know how to describe it. Things are changing!

Thank you Dr. Ten years in construction left me stressed and ill for the last four years, videos helped
I acknowledge all that the construction workers give to the rest of us. Trouble is they don't always have the best air to breathe. Toxins would be the big barrier that is holding down your health. Everyone is toxic to some degree these days. Study up on sauna detoxification that includes good doses of vitamins and minerals that replace the ones you lose in sweating. Here's a Dr. Berg video on this: What Happens If You Use a SAUNA for 14 Days
Try ashwagandha too.
I suffered for back pain for 5yrs then when i get the "magnesium glycinate 500mg". After i take this one i never have a back pain and my sleep is very good. I take 1 pill per night!
Magnesium glynicate is great for sleep but it wasn't working as well for me lately maybe because I was taking about 3 hours before bedtime. Last night I took one 100MG tablet about 40 minutes before bed and slept for 8.5 hours which was one of the best night's sleep I've had in weeks.
I started implementing what you suggested for vitamin D3/K2 and I told my Doctor who doesn't know anything about taking some good healthy Fats with the vitamin D 3
So I will be getting my lab work done in 3 months instead of 6 months.

I used to have restless leg syndrome at night. It would feel as though my muscles were flexing from around the bones, but not going through the whole flex, mostly my thighs. I would move legs to 'help finish the flex' but it never did! I started taking magnesium glycinate and it is a world of difference! I might have one night in a month, now, of RLS....whereas before it was every night of RLS. I started this about 2 yrs ago and I won't quit! Best thing I ever did for RLS.

Dr, Berg, as a 73 year old invalid, post uterine cancer, chemo brain insomniac, I LOVE YOU!
P.s why then do you use magnesium citrate in your electrolyte powder?
@@carolbowen1693 I bought magnesium glycinate powder, and it tastes like rotten fish. That's probably the reason.
Oh dear! I am pleased I bought the capsules in that case and opted for magnesium glycinate at Dr Berg's recommend .
Thanks Doc, I have learned not to take 2 x magnesium glycinate in one hit at night, 2 hours before bed, and will spread that to one in the morning and one before bedtime.
Why? How does it work differently if u take it that way?
YES! Started taking Magnesium Glycinate last year after being FLOXED by Levofloxacin and reading about it in a Reddit group. Was watching this video hoping it was high up on the list. :) However early on I was taking 400mg, now just 100mg not knowing what the recommended daily dosage was. Thank You!
Hi, Dr, Berg I take a magnesium complex of glycinate, citrate, malate looks like a winner! Thanks for clearing up the confusing info on this subject!
How much of each form of magnesium is in each tablet? When the label lumps two or more ingredients together and neglects to itemize the amount of each one, I assume it's mostly the cheapest ingredient, and only small amounts of the others as a marketing ploy.
@brothermine2292 true just buy a complex with the 3 most absorbable forms
>Dogman3690 : Or buy just the one most absorbable form?
@brothermine2292 Yes, thoenate I believe
Not a problem at all.
Great video.
I’ve been taking a Magnesium Complex with 200mg Glycinate, 150mg Malate, 50mg citrate, and 100mg Taurate and I’ve been happy with it. I also try to eat magnesium rich foods like nuts, chicken, and bananas on a regular basis.
I have been looking for something with all the magnesium names and benefits. This is an awesome breakdown and you actually added the details. Wow! Gratitude Dr. Berg. I appreciate it. 💃🏽💃🏽💞💞
Glad to know that you liked this post!
I add soil amendments that contain magnesium to my crops to get as much from food as I can and take magnesium glycinate before bed to help me sleep. It is worth the effort and expense for me.

Good for the driver, bad for the ice.
@@martinjaramillo2429what do you mean by that?
This video is so practical. It gets straight to point and goes over the most popular forms of Mg. Thank you, Dr.

What about magnesium chloride? What is the absorption and the benefits for that?
Right?! I asked the same thing! I take a liquid version. Took my RLS away completely
Check out this article: www.drberg.com/blog/what-is-transdermal-magnesium?queryID=9872bb983d951939f7e6aa441621fcb2&objectID=blog_2687
nowhere else have I experienced a source of nutritional education that is as pragmatic, consistent, unbiased, well researched, and as clearly communicated as here on Dr. Berg's channel. That doesn't mean that other similar channels don't have the ability to provide good information, it just means that, imho, Dr. Berg's is the one that can be relied on.
I make magnesium bicarbonate by adding 1 tsp of magnesium hydroxide to 800 ml of carbonated water. I add that to the water I drink throughout the day.
I recently also Learned that by mixing Apple cider vinegar with magnesium hydroxide that magnesium acetate is formed. You can also mix magnesium hydroxide with lemon juice to make magnesium citrate.
I'm trying to understand the dosing of the magnesium bicarbonate you make with a soda stream. I've seen you could take two 8 ounce glasses, take two swigs a day and I've seen 1 ounce. I don't want to over do but I think it's the best form.
It does seem sensible to have the reaction forming magnesium compounds externally, otherwise the reaction with your stomach acid is partly neutralizing the digestive juices, and the gas from that reaction will bloat you. I guess you could just dissolve a magnesium oxide tablet in a mixture of carbonated water with a dash of lemon juice and ACV to provide a mixture of compounds more easily absorbed and tolerated.
Dr. Berg, I’ve been following your channel for at least 3 years now, I am now 34 years old male from Burgas, Bulgaria, type 1 diabetic. I’ve implemented the knowledge I got from you and I’ve seen it works and I’ve even helped others with advices in regards of healthy keto and fasting. I even I tell my mom that you’re my doctor and she asks “do you speak to him?” And I reply “no but I feel him like my own personal doctor. “
By the way I am following your diet advice about the 7 healthiest foods, I’ve cut sugar off for the past few weeks, mu sugar levels are great, my insulin sensitivity is high, my sleep is a lot better , basically I feel great because of the information I got from you.
You are the best and that was about me, I have a question for you in regard to magnesium - I am now taking 2 pills of 500mg Magnesium Bisglycinate chelate, what do you think about that type of magnesium?
Thank you in advance!
Love
Lenny
Whats the best one for heart? I just discovered i have a 50% blockage. Also have severe panic attacks. Heart palpitations some times? Been watching you for a couple days. Thanks for all the help!!!
What about Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate?
Chloride is bad, same as oxide.
You are helping so many people. Thank you.
Doctor, when I took Magnesium Glycinate for the first time 5 months ago at one evening; the next morning, I had significant improvements. My focus, mental clarity, alertness...a significant decrease in mind wandering, stress, depression and anxiety.
But the problem is, these improvements reduced quickly after. Even though I continued intaking this supplement for months. Now I don't experience any changes. Why is that?
It may have been a placebo effect, or maybe the effect was caused by something else that you haven't repeated.
Take a 2 week break. You won't be missing out on anything, since you say you are not experiencing results anyway. Then start again for a month, take another 2 weeks off, etc. Consider this strategy for all your supplements. Good luck!
Thank God, I've just ordered magnesium glycinate, I ordered it about 6 hours ago!
Great!
@@Drbergsame
Thanks for the break-down!! Where does Magnesium Chloride fall under?
I want to know too. That is what I put in my electrolyte mix
I guess that is what you will get once the (cheap) magnesium oxide has had the antacid effect on stomach acid and reacted to become the chloride salt, so it may be the antacid effect that can cause digestive problems. Bioavailability appears to be the immediate absorption rather than how much total absorbed throughout the digestive tract - which seems to be adequate even for oxide.
Most people can’t handle oral magnesium and get the runs or stomach upset. I use magnesium chloride oil on my skin and have noticed the benefits so it does go into the blood because i noticed my bloodpressure dropped and my heart palpitations are almost as good as gone. There are also people that have done test with magnesium chloride foot soaks and there levels went up so i wish people stopped saying it does not get absorbed .
I have a lotion that has magnesium chloride. It says a teaspoon is 100mg.

The test is call intracellular magnesium test and it the best way to know your magnesium levels .While almost no doctor knew what it was. Magnesium is very very important for Vitamin D!

Dear Dr. Eric Berg, first sorry for my English. Some days ago I listened carefully to the interview with Professor Bruce Hollis, a pioneer in vitamin D.
Now when talking about Magnesium, Prof. Hollis clearly stated, he takes 400mg of Magnesium OXYDE !
I don’t understand why this was left there uncommented, when this RUclips contribution clearly states it is the worse magnesium compound.
Thank you for any comment.
Overall I absolutely appreciate your profound help you give in the nutrition context. Please continue this way 👏
Cheers wr
Worst bioavailability, but still the most cost effective if you are just topping up, and don't have any digestive malabsorption issues. Even if you are deficient, your body will tent to grab some of the magnesium available whenever it can find it. You are even supposed to be able to absorb some through the skin when bathing with epsom salts or dead sea salt. Apparently bioavailability is tested on rapid absorption rather than total absorption, so some more gets absorbed after reacting with stomach acid, etc. A combination of different magnesium compounds is probably best to provide both high bioavailbility/absorption, and minimal digestive issues if higher doses are required. Just by making some mg available to your body, you are likely to be better off than most people.
