I used to get so tired living in London. When I came to France I was told to take magnesium supplements at the change of seasons. 300mg a day. It changed my life.
I got several autoimmune diseases and my mood changed. My mood was not balanced anymore. I started taking Magnesium two weeks ago, just 400 mg a day, and my mood is much more balanced again and I’m happier. I hope in long term it will also help me with my other symptoms.
@@NOV123 i take 600 mg i used to take 1,000 mg when my anxiety disorder / sleep and panic attacks were really bad ! It’s amazing. It helps balance my hormones too :)
I've been a massage therapist for 40 years, and a common question for new clients is on magnesium intake, and all of they've considered taking it! My favorite is glycinate, and liquid mag/ trace mineral. Tip on the green veggies - get organically grown when you can, as chemical fertilizer is like fast food for plants, and they don't absorb the minerals (including magnesium) well!
I´m taking magnesium citrate and works like magic. I´ve had shoulder and AC joint (collarbone/clavicle/acromium) pain due to some overuse, injury and even a traumatic event for 5 years. I couldn´t do pushups without feeling pain or uncomfortable, to the point that I would quit doing them. I´ve been taking citrate for over ten days and then one day in my vacation far for home, not going to the gym, decided to try pushups. To my surprise, I had no pain at all. Unbelievable!!! It feels like I went back in time these five years and I´m so happy now!!!
hi did u have pain in front of the shoulder? i have biecps tendonitis and i can't do over head movements or train chest or do pushups as i get pain in front of shoulder im doing pt and its been 2 years.
I’m on day 5 of taking magnesium glycine..it’s a miracle! I already feel so much better. I was always fatigued, got cramps, sad and I can tell I’m slowly feeling better. I also suffer from migraines.. I will need to see how it affects those after taking it fora longer period of time.
I was also always very fatigued, mood not balanced anymore and many more symptoms due to multiple autoimmune diseases. I started taking Magnesium two weeks ago and I have a more balanced mood and I’m happier. I hope it will also help me with other symptoms.

@ForEverKath Magnesium Glycinate is one the most bioavailable/Best absorbed by the body. Try to avoid citrate as it's not very bioavailable and will most likely just give you the runs.I like the superself brand. I'm using Magenhance triple magnesium just now but it's too early for me to recommend it as I only started it last week. I think 3mo is the sweet spot to know if it has benefits for me.

I myself have a magnesium deficiency. I had experienced problems with leg and foot spasms and also tiredness. I also started having problems with my jaw. My jaw would literally lock up on me to where I was having problems chewing my food. It was tightness so bizarre in my jaw. I started consuming foods high in magnesium and also I started taking MAGNESIUM BREAKTHROUGH supplementation. ( ALSO TAKING OTHER VITAMIN SUPPLEMENTS AS WELL.). All I can tell you just 2 weeks into this, that my jaw is super relaxed and I have no problem chewing anymore, and I have not felt even 1 muscle spasm in my legs. I definitely feel much better.
adelinedile 3250- Hello, I have tried twice to answer you but unfortunately my response to you keeps getting erased. This is so unfortunate and unfair in my view but I tried. I suppose somebody doesn’t like me revealing what i am using that has given me such great results.
I started taking magnesium after receiving an IV bag of it at the hospital during a severe migraine. I started sleeping thru the night (which I never slept more than 2 days at a time), headaches stopped and I didn’t have to wear a mouth guard at night anymore because I stopped clenching my teeth!

Dr. Carlos. Your videos are very good and very informative. But with regards to magnesium you neglected to talk about one very important feature of mag . I just found out about this recently and now I can use it in a different way . That is, mag is a natural anti inflammatory. Please remember to tell us more about this aspect of it in your next video.
Obviously the doctor is not following up with what he preaches in his videos because if he was, he would have addressed your concerns. There are 10 different types of magnesium and all are essential.
I've gone on a lot of videos and gone over my chronic illness, year's spent searching for what was wrong, intense diet, exercise, and scientific method to boil it all down. I do want to say in the end, about 70% of my problems were fixed by in taking more electrolytes, magnesium played such a critical role. I was drinking far too much water and caffeine daily, not eating processed foods, so my sodium was dangerously low as well. My blood pressure was very low, I had many symptoms aligned with MS, TIA, panic attacks, you name it. I overdid the fluids, I also fasted too much, and I reached for more coffee to get energy. I have had 0 cravings for caffeine once I fixed my electrolytes and supplement mag, K, and NaCl. I still have some leaky-gut and/or ulcer symptoms as well as autoimmune conditions that come and go.
Look into parasites are what is causing such a big percentage globally are low in the same thing they cause autoimmune disease depression anxiety allergies nightmares and people have been curing their cancer with dog parasite medicine there are lots of different parasites and they are the cause for cysts the mother puts her babies in those cysts and while she is alive she produces a chemical that keeps them in that stage when she hatches eggs she hatches thousands at a time to they get in our blood stream and muscle and they are what I believe to be the main reason for bile duct cancer the problem is Dr's don't take people seriously when they go asking for checking them for them because Dr's don't take it into consideration that they travel but there is plenty of evidence that they travel in our food our pets and other animals and people who travel bile duct cancer is uncommon but not amongst our vets who went to where the parasites are known to come from during the war they were over there they brought them back of course and those things can live up to 25 yrs and that's just what they know of who knows if they can live longer that my opinion on that part but yes do look into this
Coffee ( also decaf) is a known diuretic, and it lowers the magnesium. I'm a coffee maniac, but took Mag-glycinate and had no further problems with leg cramps.
I also have multiple autoimmune diseases and leaky gut and I’m disabled because of it since almost 10 years. I just two weeks ago started with electrolytes and Magnesium. My mood definitely already improved. I hope it will also help me with my other 100 thousand symptoms.
Absolutely Love this content!! I've made up 00 capsules of Sulphate and Citrate which I take morning and afternoon and alternate store bought Glycinate and Threonate before sleep. Plan to get 3 large servings of green leagues each week. Find I fall asleep quickly,can sleep 7 hours straight and feel Much less stressed. My penchant for an occasional drink also seems to have disappeared!? Magnesium for the Win!❤✌️🙏
This was the best video I’ve watched on this subject and I’ve watched a lot! Thank you so much for explaining things so thoroughly. This may sound silly but I appreciate that you deliver your message in a good rate of speech and using terms we can all understand. I consider myself an intelligent person, and I usually do not have any problems following along listening to things, but I have discovered a lot of people on RUclips speak at an incredibly fast pace and throw in a lot of terms that some of us may not be familiar with. I understand why they do it and yes, I can understand most of it, but when you watch a few of these and there’s so much information to take in when this isn’t your area of expertise, the way you present the information is very helpful. Also, I am a speech and language therapist, so I feel that I am a good judge of communication skills. I really appreciate yours! Thank you so much, I’m now a subscriber!

Diet and Diet includes: Dark leafy greens, like veggies, kale, spinach Chocolate Almonds Walnuts Supplements What magnesium supplement should you buy? Magnesium sulphite magnesium oxide are good for diarrhoea (not for daily use, as it can also cause diarrhoea, and it can kill the good bacteria in the bowels) - chelated magnesium often contains magnesium oxide Magnesium citrate is absorbed easily and the most, it will benefit, sleep, being tired, twitching, cramps, chronic constipation, gastritis, Vitamin D Magnesium glycinate is very common and is easily tolerated, it is good for neurological symptoms like, twitching, cramps, feeling tired, sleeping, NOT constipation Magnesium malate is good for highs absorption can help with hydration, chronic dehydration, diarrhoea Magnesium threonate is good for neurological symptoms, like depression, feel tired, concentration, migraines - mental pains. Note: DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT MAGNESIUM SOURCES TOGETHER, take them separately, and at different times of the day. What doses should I take? For chronic deficiency: start at a gram, a gram and a half, 800 mg - after your feeling better, the average intake is 400mg of magnesium, not of magnesium citrate or glycinate or malate. What’s the difference? There is a difference between Elemental Magnesium and the combination of magnesium that you’re getting. Eg. When taking magnesium citrate (for instance) maybe 40% is elemental magnesium and the rest is citric acid. So if you take 800mg, 300mg might be elemental magnesium and the rest is citrate. Try to keep and intake of 400mg in between diet and other sources such as supplements Note: ALWAYS DISCUSS WITH YIUR PHYSICIAN Is it dangerous if you take too much magnesium? In short, no. As if you get to a high amount of magnesium, your body will eliminate in the bowels. Worst case scenario: You end up with diarrhoea. If you have low stomach acid, you can take magnesium in lemon water or magnesium with water with a little bit of apple cider vinegar as that will help you assimilate the magnesium properly. Note: magnesium is eliminated through urine. If you are pregnant you will need to take more magnesium How do you take it? Through vegetables - diet Digestion: magnesium citrate For sports: magnesium malate Recover: magnesium glycinate
I have arthritis so which magnesium I should be taking. I have sciatica pain can you recommend what vitamins I should be taking thank you for sharing your knowledge appreciate your kindness
I heard and read a lot about magnesium. It is said that calcium blocks magnesium absorption so you cannot take them at the same time. It is better to take magnesium with a vitamin D3 supplement also. Maybe vitamin K2 should be taken together with this combination too, if you are worried about bone health. I have a triple magnesium supplement from CVS, but I think I will switch to magnesium citrate because I am constipated. I think magnesium is better taken before you go to sleep.
IM MgSO4 , 1gm to each hop works great for migraine. MgSO4 4,000 mg slow IVP works outstanding for status asthmaticus. They will live and not have to be placed on a ventilator. Atrial fibrillation is treated with MgSO4 4,000 mg IV over 6 hrs plus KCl 40 meq po and repeat i 4 hrs. Heart rhythm will spontaneously convert to NSR. Probably all ACLS protocols should include IV MgSO4 for ATP production and SA node rhythm. The list goes on and on.
That’s a good doctor because most doctors will suggest to take ibuprofen and amoxicillin for pain. He is trying to heal the patient but not to just remove symptoms
I take a magnesium in powder form. A couple of teaspoon diluted in small amount of water. If you are getting running stool or diarrhea, that's too much. Just adjust the amount till your stool is in regular form. It's good for muscle relaxant, sleep, regularity. I use Natural Calm brand, unflavored. Came recommended from fitness instructors who don't have enough time to stretch and relax their muscles between teaching classes.
You’re AMAZING! I’m watching you in Spanish channel and I want to practice my listening with you! Que combo!! And know I can share it to my family & friends! Congrats and many blessings!
I was delighted to find your channel. The best informative information on Magnesium. You impart your knowledge so well and easy to understand. My husbands health is not so good, many of symptoms you have mentioned, he has. I would like to ask if he can take magnesium along with his prescribed medication, which is quite a lot. Thank you. Jo x
I take 250mg magnesium citrate and it is amazing ....I sleep ,no leg cramps, headaches are pretty much gone. I am 73 yrs old. To be honest I panicked when I started to get low. That won't happen again.
The contents are perfect and quite informative. The only suggestion as per my analysis and knowledge plus my personal experience is the initial doses in the first few days of supplementation to be around 100 or 200 mg to be increased gradually to the DESIRED LEVEL, just to avoid the BACKFIRE that is often expected in the FIRST FEW DAYS. Also, skipping the supplements in between after the achievement of results shall avoid the chances of HYPER LEVELS, if at all. Thank you Sir for your wonderful content and advice.

@@hmartin751take unfiltered apple cider vinegar with mother before last meal of day. It will regulate glucose levels and blood sugar levels. Could help with sleep at night.
@hmartin751, It's been 4 months... just in case you are still looking for the best magnesium to take. If you are looking for magnesium to help you sleep, it's magnesium glycinate. Take it before you go to bed.
I took 1/2 dose of a full spectrum Mag and felt completely sedated….it was kinda scary like being stoned. My mind didn’t function well. I did sleep wonderfully but even felt slightly ‘ hung over’ ….it took about 24 hours to clear the symptoms. I suspect the glycerinate and/ or the theonate Appreciate the segment very much. I do eat a mag. rich diet but was diagnosed with iron defiance and mag supplement was recommended for help absorbing iron. Your video has been helpful in being selective in the type of mag to take
Which magnesium do you supplement with. I’ve been supplementing with the magnesium glycinate which has really helped with my insomnia, however my feet and ankle pain remain.
Yes I take it every day and potassium 4 times a days as my immune system has crashed …. Love magnizium even my husband who has cancer I give magnesium and potassium every day ….. ❤❤❤❤❤ excellence dottore saluti ita Ail.
I went to a health food store not Walmart and purchased Vit B complex, D3 with K2 (heart) and Mag glycinate. I have all the symptoms mentioned and my doctor doesn’t feel I have a mag deficiency. I insisted on the test and surprise. I had low magnesium, but he didn’t tell me which kind of Mag to take. I just learned Mag L Threonate is good for the brain neurology, and that Mag Oxide doesnt absorb. Thanks Dr Carlos for the vital info our doctors don’t tell us.

I was drinking far too much water and caffeine daily, not eating processed foods, so my sodium was dangerously low as well. My blood pressure was very low, I had many symptoms aligned with MS, TIA, panic attacks, you name it.
I overdid the fluids, I also fasted too much, and I reached for more coffee to get energy.
I have had 0 cravings for caffeine once I fixed my electrolytes and supplement mag, K, and NaCl.
I still have some leaky-gut and/or ulcer symptoms as well as autoimmune conditions that come and go.
Have you looked at Keto or Carnivore diets? If you’re interested look up Dr Chaffee videos.
Look into parasites are what is causing such a big percentage globally are low in the same thing they cause autoimmune disease depression anxiety allergies nightmares and people have been curing their cancer with dog parasite medicine there are lots of different parasites and they are the cause for cysts the mother puts her babies in those cysts and while she is alive she produces a chemical that keeps them in that stage when she hatches eggs she hatches thousands at a time to they get in our blood stream and muscle and they are what I believe to be the main reason for bile duct cancer the problem is Dr's don't take people seriously when they go asking for checking them for them because Dr's don't take it into consideration that they travel but there is plenty of evidence that they travel in our food our pets and other animals and people who travel bile duct cancer is uncommon but not amongst our vets who went to where the parasites are known to come from during the war they were over there they brought them back of course and those things can live up to 25 yrs and that's just what they know of who knows if they can live longer that my opinion on that part but yes do look into this
Coffee ( also decaf) is a known diuretic, and it lowers the magnesium. I'm a coffee maniac, but took Mag-glycinate and had no further problems with leg cramps.
I also have multiple autoimmune diseases and leaky gut and I’m disabled because of it since almost 10 years. I just two weeks ago started with electrolytes and Magnesium. My mood definitely already improved. I hope it will also help me with my other 100 thousand symptoms.
@@MakadiduI’m not sure the carnivore diet is good with leaky gut.
Keep it up doctor, it's really helpful 🙏
Absolutely Love this content!! I've made up 00 capsules of Sulphate and Citrate which I take morning and afternoon and alternate store bought Glycinate and Threonate before sleep. Plan to get 3 large servings of green leagues each week. Find I fall asleep quickly,can sleep 7 hours straight and feel Much less stressed. My penchant for an occasional drink also seems to have disappeared!? Magnesium for the Win!❤✌️🙏
do you know what Calcium sulfate is ? Plaster aka Gypsum .
So I would skip Magnesium( plaster)sulfate out of my oral cocktail.
Ty Dr Carlos for being so specific.
I put non scented Epson salt in my vegetable garden along with vitamins, keep your soil healthy and it will keep you healthy. 🎉
This was the best video I’ve watched on this subject and I’ve watched a lot! Thank you so much for explaining things so thoroughly. This may sound silly but I appreciate that you deliver your message in a good rate of speech and using terms we can all understand. I consider myself an intelligent person, and I usually do not have any problems following along listening to things, but I have discovered a lot of people on RUclips speak at an incredibly fast pace and throw in a lot of terms that some of us may not be familiar with. I understand why they do it and yes, I can understand most of it, but when you watch a few of these and there’s so much information to take in when this isn’t your area of expertise, the way you present the information is very helpful. Also, I am a speech and language therapist, so I feel that I am a good judge of communication skills. I really appreciate yours! Thank you so much, I’m now a subscriber!

What magnesium supplement should you buy?
Magnesium sulphite magnesium oxide are good for diarrhoea (not for daily use, as it can also cause diarrhoea, and it can kill the good bacteria in the bowels)
- chelated magnesium often contains magnesium oxide
Magnesium citrate is absorbed easily and the most, it will benefit, sleep, being tired, twitching, cramps, chronic constipation, gastritis, Vitamin D
Magnesium glycinate is very common and is easily tolerated, it is good for neurological symptoms like, twitching, cramps, feeling tired, sleeping, NOT constipation
Magnesium malate is good for highs absorption can help with hydration, chronic dehydration, diarrhoea
Magnesium threonate is good for neurological symptoms, like depression, feel tired, concentration, migraines - mental pains.
Note: DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT MAGNESIUM SOURCES TOGETHER, take them separately, and at different times of the day.
What doses should I take?
For chronic deficiency: start at a gram, a gram and a half, 800 mg - after your feeling better, the average intake is 400mg of magnesium, not of magnesium citrate or glycinate or malate.
What’s the difference?
There is a difference between Elemental Magnesium and the combination of magnesium that you’re getting.
Eg.
When taking magnesium citrate (for instance) maybe 40% is elemental magnesium and the rest is citric acid. So if you take 800mg, 300mg might be elemental magnesium and the rest is citrate.
Try to keep and intake of 400mg in between diet and other sources such as supplements
Note: ALWAYS DISCUSS WITH YIUR PHYSICIAN
Is it dangerous if you take too much magnesium?
In short, no.
As if you get to a high amount of magnesium, your body will eliminate in the bowels.
Worst case scenario:
You end up with diarrhoea.
If you have low stomach acid, you can take magnesium in lemon water or magnesium with water with a little bit of apple cider vinegar as that will help you assimilate the magnesium properly.
Note:
magnesium is eliminated through urine.
If you are pregnant you will need to take more magnesium
How do you take it?
Through vegetables - diet
Digestion: magnesium citrate
For sports: magnesium malate
Recover: magnesium glycinate
WOW! thanks
Thank you so much
Thank you 🙏🏽
Thank you! ❤
I take magnesium glycinate, Thanks Doc!
I am following you in your Spanish videos(RUclips).Sincerely you are doing a great job educating us.
I agree recently I have started taking magnesium and I became amazed by its effect on muscles sleep and gut
Highly informative!!!
I have arthritis so which magnesium I should be taking. I have sciatica pain can you recommend what vitamins I should be taking thank you for sharing your knowledge appreciate your kindness
I heard and read a lot about magnesium. It is said that calcium blocks magnesium absorption so you cannot take them at the same time. It is better to take magnesium with a vitamin D3 supplement also. Maybe vitamin K2 should be taken together with this combination too, if you are worried about bone health. I have a triple magnesium supplement from CVS, but I think I will switch to magnesium citrate because I am constipated. I think magnesium is better taken before you go to sleep.
I also read not to take k2 at the same time as d3.
IM MgSO4 , 1gm to each hop works great for migraine. MgSO4 4,000 mg slow IVP works outstanding for status asthmaticus. They will live and not have to be placed on a ventilator.
Atrial fibrillation is treated with MgSO4 4,000 mg IV over 6 hrs plus KCl 40 meq po and repeat i 4 hrs. Heart rhythm will spontaneously convert to NSR. Probably all ACLS protocols should include IV MgSO4 for ATP production and SA node rhythm. The list goes on and on.
Thank you so much Doctor ,You have such a wonderful way of explaining everything, and I especially enjoyed the video today 🙏🏻💙
This video is the best explanation of magnesium that I’ve ever seen.
That’s a good doctor because most doctors will suggest to take ibuprofen and amoxicillin for pain. He is trying to heal the patient but not to just remove symptoms
Amoxicillin is an antibiotic i.e. for bacterial infections
Best explanation ever
I take Magnesium Glycenate 100mg before bed and I sleep well...
Can M/Glycenate 400mg cause ED?
AWESOME!!! I'm sooo glad I found your channel. Some Great Information and very Detailed🙏❤
Very interesting and informative article 👍
Great video and presentation. I was asking myself "why?" and "what about this?" and then you answered my question a few seconds later...
I take a magnesium in powder form. A couple of teaspoon diluted in small amount of water. If you are getting running stool or diarrhea, that's too much. Just adjust the amount till your stool is in regular form.
It's good for muscle relaxant, sleep, regularity. I use Natural Calm brand, unflavored. Came recommended from fitness instructors who don't have enough time to stretch and relax their muscles between teaching classes.
You’re AMAZING! I’m watching you in Spanish channel and I want to practice my listening with you! Que combo!! And know I can share it to my family & friends! Congrats and many blessings!
Very thorough!🙏
Who doesn't have magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is involved in every cell of your body and in every use. A major mineral.
I was delighted to find your channel. The best informative information on Magnesium. You impart your knowledge so well and easy to understand. My husbands health is not so good, many of symptoms you have mentioned, he has. I would like to ask if he can take magnesium along with his prescribed medication, which is quite a lot. Thank you.

This video is very helpful, because the details for what to intake is very understandable.
God Bless
Whats the best magnesium to take for a 70 year old woman? I have trouble staying asleep & going back to sleep
I take 250mg magnesium citrate and it is amazing ....I sleep ,no leg cramps, headaches are pretty much gone. I am 73 yrs old. To be honest I panicked when I started to get low. That won't happen again.
@lpetite8636 thank you for your info, I'm going to get some. I don't get enough sleep at night
Magnesium glycinate for relaxation stress aches pains migraines pms mood sleep I take it throughout my day and at night
@Ohkeh640 thank you:-)
What the kind there's different ones ?
Thank you Doc for well explained magnesium supplements🌼💜🌷
make sure mineral Boron enough in daily diets too or by supplementing fm it. mineral Boron holding Calcium & Magnasium.
The contents are perfect and quite informative. The only suggestion as per my analysis and knowledge plus my personal experience is the initial doses in the first few days of supplementation to be around 100 or 200 mg to be increased gradually to the DESIRED LEVEL, just to avoid the BACKFIRE that is often expected in the FIRST FEW DAYS. Also, skipping the supplements in between after the achievement of results shall avoid the chances of HYPER LEVELS, if at all. Thank you Sir for your wonderful content and advice.
When you’re flashing up information on screen behind you it would help so much if you could leave those on there long enough for those of us who are taking notes really appreciate your contact
Thank you Doctor ❤
I began taking magnesium about 2 months ago. I have no more sleep issues. I go to bed and sleep anywhere between 8 and 10 hours a night
Omg what kimd of magnesium?? I wake up every hour and I am desperate for sleep
@@hmartin751take unfiltered apple cider vinegar with mother before last meal of day. It will regulate glucose levels and blood sugar levels. Could help with sleep at night.
@hmartin751, It's been 4 months... just in case you are still looking for the best magnesium to take. If you are looking for magnesium to help you sleep, it's magnesium glycinate. Take it before you go to bed.
Walnuts are also good
I take a blend of magnesium and it’s helped me tremendously
I took 1/2 dose of a full spectrum Mag and felt completely sedated….it was kinda scary like being stoned. My mind didn’t function well. I did sleep wonderfully but even felt slightly ‘ hung over’ ….it took about 24 hours to clear the symptoms. I suspect the glycerinate and/ or the theonate
Appreciate the segment very much. I do eat a mag. rich diet but was diagnosed with iron defiance and mag supplement was recommended for help absorbing iron. Your video has been helpful in being selective in the type of mag to take
Thanks! I needed to hear this!!
Thank you Doctor ❤ I was suffering from restless leg syndrome for many years, nothing helped me but magnesium
Which magnesium do you supplement with. I’ve been supplementing with the magnesium glycinate which has really helped with my insomnia, however my feet and ankle pain remain.
Please Which magnesium ?
@@Prettygirl-oo6mpits probably Malate. This is recommended for muscle issues

Thanks for clarifying about M
I went to a health food store not Walmart and purchased Vit B complex, D3 with K2 (heart) and Mag glycinate. I have all the symptoms mentioned and my doctor doesn’t feel I have a mag deficiency. I insisted on the test and surprise. I had low magnesium, but he didn’t tell me which kind of Mag to take.
I just learned Mag L Threonate is good for the brain neurology, and that Mag Oxide doesnt absorb.
Thanks Dr Carlos for the vital info our doctors don’t tell us.
Great info. Thanks Dr. Gonna go for magnesium citrate for my body pain.

DOC what kind of Magnesium is needed to get rid of accumulated calcium in the artery?
When you are taking calcium you have to take Vit K2 /MK7 for helping calcium going to the bones. Please do the research.
@@ledang6242 thanks I was able to find later after my first post after I scroll on You Tube for more information like too much calcium in the blood how to dispose it. Found out that we need VIT. D3 AND VIT. K2 FROM HARD CHEESE, BUTTER, LARD, TALLOW, BEEF AND MANY MORE. I HAPPENED TO SEE DR. PRADIP JAMNADOS BLOG " THE FAT LIES" WHILE SCROLLING. THEN I SAW DR. ERIC BERG TALK ABOUT REMOVING EXCESS CALCIUM IN THE BLOOD TO PREVENT CALCIFICATION OF THE ARTERY. THEN I GOT THE WHOLE PICTURE DR. KEN BERRY TALK ABOUT STATIN WHICH INHIBIT THE KIDNEY TO PRODUCE VIT. K2. I ASSEMBLED THE JIGSAW PUZZLE THAT I NEED ONLY TO EAT THE RIGHT FOOD.
@@ledang6242 and take Calcium Citrate instead of Calcium Carbonate.
Stop taking calcium, and take vit K2 ( + some vit D3 ), may take a long time.
Very good presentation . Thank you.❤🎉😊
Thanks for sharing doc. God bless you ❤
I have been taking magnesium for 15 years and never regretted it one bit. I give it credit for keeping me healthy. The best megnesium was taken off the market. I wonder why? People like me do not make good patients for the medical indusrtry.
Wonderful and very clear information, many thanks ONE THING, I didn't hear anything about magnesium for children , sorry if I missed it, do you mind telling me if there is any max dosage for supplement?
Wonderful Dr, thank you so much 🙏🧡
