  • The stress response that your body experiences, which involves the production of hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol, leads to a reduction of magnesium levels in your body. These hormones are released during times of stress and subsequently, your body uses up more magnesium to help manage these reactions. This reduces the overall amount of magnesium available for other functions within your body.
    In this video, expect to learn:
    • How long magnesium stays lowered after a spike of adrenaline
    • Examples of stress that deplete magnesium levels
    • Whether or not a night of poor sleep can deplete magnesium
    • Whether or not loud noise exposure depletes magnesium
    • How exercise affects magnesium levels

    Chronic stress will burn out your adrenals and give you muscle cramps. This is also a sign of magnesium deficiency. A wise man once said: Man is only ill because he can't be still. Dis-ease. Long enough psychological stress will manifest in so many physical problems. Another huge problem with stress is high stomach acid and ulcers. Leading to worse digestion, sleep, food decisions(junk comfort foods). Stress is just a downward spiral and everything will go haywire eventually. Depending on your constitution, something will break first.

      And I learned from Dr. Rahim Gonstead that you can check for adrenal depletion by shining a harsh light into your eye; if the pupil first contracts but then starts to quaver/widen again within 6 seconds or so, you have a serious cortisol problem

      Yeah I've been dealing with that myself for years unknowingly. I recently in the past few years started working on my gut health and stress levels. Dealing with a bunch of difficult gut issues, that I feel once healed things like magnesium should be better absorbed. But my adrenal are definitely burned out years of chronic stress/anxiety, that I didn't know how to manage in my younger years. And unfortunately, I dealt with that in the worst way, by just eating tons of sugar and bad food.

    I've bought like 3 different magnesium supplements of glycinate, malate and citrate. And it sucks because none of them work. Due to my body having poor absorption problems, from gut health and prior stress levels being burned out.
    Been working each day, trying out different things. To work on improving my gut health and mental. I was dealing with candida for many years and I'm still dealing with it currently. But that had my stress levels out of control for many years, due to the severity of things like the brain fog I would get daily.

      Unlike others are saying, I would suggest a probiotic and a low-sugar yogurt (I prefer greek). Our gut biome has a huge impact on our health and ability to absorb nutrients. I prefer to take my supplements with yogurt and some fiber...Everyone is different though so be patient and limit the number of changes you make at a time.

    Why does the body never run out of magnesium, though? I mean, if you're stressed, etc, and you have normal magnesium needs for various functions, and you get nowhere near the daily magnesium intake, etc, etc, why do you not run out of magnesium after a few days or weeks and pass out and die? Where is that minimal level of magnesium coming from?

    • @starvinmarvin7964
      @starvinmarvin7964 6 месяцев назад +2

      Yeah that's my question too and also how long does it take to replenish low magnesium levels. Maybe its because magnesium is in small amounts in all sorts of foods so maybe we're able to get just enough from our diets to keep us from getting dangerously low.
      Could also be because the body seems to always maintain adequate levels in the blood so maybe it sacrifices from cells in other parts of the body in an effort to maintain blood levels.

      Your body pulls out magnesium from your bones & teeth. And replenishes them when you eat magnesium rich foods. However, if your body uses up too much, your bone & teeth will become brittle. You will start to see nasty symptoms like Depression, heart palpitations, osteoporosis, brittle bones and a host other symptoms.
