I also suffered from intermittent migraines. I had testing done, and they couldn’t find a reason for my migraines, and gave me a prescription to take PRN.

I had a neurologist 12+ years ago suggest that I take OTC Mg to help prevent migraines. It lowered the number, but did not eliminate them, but also caused GI issues. Then I heard some previous Drive episodes that talked about slow mag and Mg L-threonate, the second in respect to crossing the blood brain barrier better and the first not impacting the GI system. I switched at that point, even though there was no mention about these specific formulas impact on migraines. N of 1 result: 0 migraines while taking this combo. It wasn't until Mg L-threonate went on backorder and I had to go 3 days with none that I got my first migraine. Suffice it to say, I now make sure that I have an extra bottle or 2 in the house so I never run out.

avoid taking Mg with Ca, they compete for the same receptors. Mg is better in the evening, as it promotes muscle relaxation, and also caffeine inhibits absorption if taken in the morning
I was having several Afib episodes a month. One doc in the ER asked me if I took magnesium - at that time (about a year ago) I did not. I started taking it (citrate is good for me because I also suffer from chronic constipation!) and have not had more than a slight “blip” occasionally since starting 400 mg of magnesium a day…about a year ago now.
Sounds like you had a great ER Doc! It’s refreshing to hear because so many docs don’t tend to grasp the importance of nutrients & electrolytes in the body nor do they educate patients. It’s really a huge failure in Healthcare and disservice to the public by potentially decreasing quality of life
I take magnesium glycinate and it’s helped my sleep, my mood and my heart. I used to get a lot of palpitations and this form of magnesium has greatly reduced them

I'd increase it to big 4: eye health especially those with glaucoma. Mg has shown to lower IOP as much as prescription medications. More research should be done on it.
Be careful though too. I started taking magnesium and it caused serious leg cramps. At first I took more thinking it should have the opposite effect. But it got worse! I've tested it on and off. I can tolerate up to a couple days of supplementation before the cramps come back strong. Apparently cramps is one of the first signs of magnesium toxicity. Be warned if you start supplementing it

Make sure you are getting bloodwork to monitor your levels of the important nutrients so you know how much you have in your blood. Get your blood work independently from your doctor if needed. Many docs don’t know much about supplementation.
I also can’t afford $19 a month as a hourly worker … so basically as much as the ads are a pain, they are far better than making your content, exclusive, and basically going against much of what you say in your book by doing a paid subscription ..

Years ago, Carolyn Dean was a proponent of a test called RBC-mag that was supposed to more accurately represent body Mg2+ levels. But this diagnostic never really became a thing. Was tge test not accurate?
I’m a group fitness instructor who teaches 9 classes a week. I can’t explain it, but I KNOW when I’m low on electrolytes. If my magnesium is too low, my muscles will cramp mercilessly-I’ve had both sets of quads go haywire. Id rather give birth. So magnesium is 100% on my daily regimen along with calculus and potassium.
I started taking a Tri-Mag supplement maybe a year ago and I haven't had a migraine since. And I used to get them 1-2 times a month. Previously I was just supplementing Magnesium Glycinate and would still get migraines. Seems these other 2 types in this supplement is doing the trick.
Sorry… but why did I listen to this?…not knowing it was really an advertisement…you never discussed magnesium supplementation. . Not a normal u-tube informational video, a bit technical and A 15 minute lead in for your business. Thanks but will stay away from these “ sneak” peaks.
Whenever there is discussion about supplements, people with Acid reflux/Gerd who absolutely can not tolerate supplements are never mentioned. My GI says stay away from supplements if I don't want acid/digestive issues
As someone who has hyperkalemia, the high potassium hits hard. My normal is about 6.2 and I've been as high as nine in the hospital for days at a time usually two or three times a year. This happens to me. I'm allergic to hydrochlorothiazide so I have to take Lasix daily, awful, awful awful.
Hey dr. Attia, I am planning to start taking magnesium And zinc separately but someone suggested to take ZMA instead. I am curious if you or anyone else any thoughts on taking ZMA instead of separating magnesium and zinc supplements. Thanks
I find a lot of people who complain of migraines have terrible neck muscle health. Dreadful constrictions around SCM, scalenes, occipitals etc. Magnesium is critical for muscle relaxation and hydration. Gentle stretches and hydration led by magnesium usually resolve their "migraines".
Magnesium was my favorite with, Vit D3, but now that I have Myasthenia Gradis I cannot take it anymore. Is this really true? I do rub magnesium chloride on my calf for cramps and it works. Do I really need to eliminate magnesium?
@@dirkhamilton2709 what are you talking about? Skin absorbs all sorts of things put on it including vitamin D. People get sick and even die from coming into contact with chemicals.
@@dirkhamilton2709time exposure plus showering before application matters. It’s just wrong to say youre not absorbing through your skin. Otherwise iodine wouldn’t affect me. It does. I feel very different with Mg oil, too. Unless you’ve tried it, I wouldn’t say anything about it with confidence.
I am lucky enough to currently have both long Covid and long Lyme. I have found out from someone that both in Italy and England, possibly other places, magnesium L-Threonate is given quite a bit for long Covid.

Has anyone ever experienced insomnia from Mag-L-Threonate? I began taking Intelligent Labs MagEnhance (690mg Magnesium Glycinate, 1000mg "Magtein" Magnesium-L-Threonate, 630mg Magnesium Taurate). Everyone says it's supportive for sleep but I actually had to stop taking it because I felt like I was really "wired" up, my mind simply couldn't shut off. I would fall asleep just fine, but wake at 2-3am and simply could not fall back asleep. This was happening to varying degrees of severity for weeks until I finally stopped taking it and the problem went away.
I have no relevant qualifications and I'm completely guessing but I wonder if it's to do with your timing. It's generally recommended to be taken 2 hours before bed. Other things to consider are caffeine intake and bluelight/bright light exposure late in the day. As for scientific efficacy, l-threonate is not well studied for sleep and magnesium in general is seen to be beneficial for sleep only for people that are low in magnesium.
@@Mebzy Thanks for the reply. I don't consume caffeine (no coffee or tea but a little cacao some mornings) and I'm very cautious about light exposure in the evenings. I think it's possible what you say about only benefiting if you're deficient. I also forgot to say in my original message though, that I have not stopped taking magnesium in general, just that kind. I now take a slow-absorb magnesium malate. Cheers!
I became borderline magnesium deficient when I took vitamin D for years. When you have low body stores of it long enough, you’ll get a paradoxical effect which stimulates you. I overcame it by taking Mg Glycinate in the mornings. Eventually it started working at night too. Had to be very gradual in increasing it personally.
I was taking magnesium from sunrood because doctors say it’s very good and there is no reason to have it checked before taking magnesium. And I am healthy but I was feeling tiredness and I was having horrible legs cramps (to the point of falling on the floor or waking up in the middle of night screaming in pain). As soon as I stopped taking magnesium, in about 10 days, I stopped having muscle cramps! Go figure!
Why is it now that we need supplements instead of eating right? Im pretty sure it's not that hard to get your magnesium from a decent varied diet. So many foods are rich in magnesium. Unless this is about people who just can't assimilate it. I would assume that is rare.
Beg to differ on “We don’t really care about magnesium clinically”. Sure as hell care about it when we see torsades on the monitor or that prolonged QT 😬 I always check Mg right along with the other lytes
I listened to the 1 hour 9 minute episode on magnesium and would like to ask for less personal information about you and your brother's personal fitness achievements. The problem is, as listeners, my husband and I were trying to get information of types of magnesium and the qualities, then the discussion, as well as the discussion with Rhonda Patrick, wound up getting personal, and I felt captive to that, so I didn't miss valuable information. The personal stuff makes the podcasts incredibly long and uninteresting.
I have to take magnesium or I have terrible leg and foot cramps at night. If I get them anyway the only thing that helps is directly applying Magnesium Oil to my legs at night. The effect is almost immediate. So there are not only two means of supplying it as suggested here.
in my opinion these sneak peaks are not worth uploading unless you see them as a valuable advertisement for your business. Uploading either a full episode or nothing at all would make more sense in my opinion.
Watch your Calcium, Vit D & Parathyroid Hormone levels. Hyperparathyroidism can cause osteoporosis, kidney stones, anxiety, fatigue, etc, etc, etc. Causes adenomas or hyperplasia of the Parathyroids. Surgical cure needed.
I would just like to take a moment to thank God, or aliens, or Tom Cruise (last 2 might be the same) for making all of these interactions and functions completely subconscious cause dang!!! There's so much happening in the human body every single second to keep us from nuking ourselves it's mind boggling.
What about the ppl that get headaches from mag? My headaches only occur when my body is telling me something is toxic ie: (hangover, vaping, certain ppl etc)😂
consuming too much magnesium can damage your kidneys, lead to lethargy, gastrointestinal symptoms, low blood pressure and cardiac arrest having too much magnesium in the blood is bad. Especially if you have existing kidney issues.
Magnesium is not a water, soluble vitamin. So it doesn’t easily flush out of your system if you take too much. So it is very dangerous if you take too much. I can shut your kidneys down and actually cause cardiac arrest when it drops your blood pressure down so low.@@Djems94
the body stores Mg mostly in the cells and bones and regulates carefully the amount circulating in the blood to be just right. we can only absorb about a third Mg from any supplement we take, so it takes at least 3 months to top up deficient levels. in hospital Mg is given at high strength intravenously for pre eclampsia, so they do not consider that dangerous.
Consuming too much water can damage your kidneys, lead to lethargy, gastrointestinal symptoms, unhealthy bloody pressure and cardiac arrest having too much water in the boood is bad. Especially if you have existing kidney issues. That’s what you sound like.

I have to take magnesium or I have terrible leg and foot cramps at night. If I get them anyway the only thing that helps is directly applying Magnesium Oil to my legs at night. The effect is almost immediate. So there are not only two means of supplying it as suggested here.
Why would anyone recommend taking supplements not knowing if one is deficient ?
Types of supplementation?
in my opinion these sneak peaks are not worth uploading unless you see them as a valuable advertisement for your business. Uploading either a full episode or nothing at all would make more sense in my opinion.
I totally disagree
I'll take a 10-20 min snippet over a two hour podcast any day. You get great info and it's not such a long commitment
Glad no one asked for your opinion
I subconsciously avoid long-format videos on RUclips. I’ll start a long podcast, but prefer topical clips on RUclips.
That is obviously the purpose of these sneak peeks. Do I think I will get value from listening to the whole thing? Maybe yes, Maybe no.
Watch your Calcium, Vit D & Parathyroid Hormone levels. Hyperparathyroidism can cause osteoporosis, kidney stones, anxiety, fatigue, etc, etc, etc. Causes adenomas or hyperplasia of the Parathyroids. Surgical cure needed.
Then comes the hero...boron
Bone caps sp check and headache
I would just like to take a moment to thank God, or aliens, or Tom Cruise (last 2 might be the same) for making all of these interactions and functions completely subconscious cause dang!!! There's so much happening in the human body every single second to keep us from nuking ourselves it's mind boggling.
Doesn't Magnesium retain water so if your deficit
You can become completely dehydrated and die
Take lots of magnesium And lower your sugar intake for erections like a teenager
What about the ppl that get headaches from mag? My headaches only occur when my body is telling me something is toxic ie: (hangover, vaping, certain ppl etc)😂
It is always better to have second opinion unless you practice molecular medicine and are the scientist who does research....
Almonds or cashews. Your choice
Great doctors!
Make your own Mg bicarbonate. Easy to do, well absorbed, inexpensive.

What is your recipe please!
consuming too much magnesium can damage your kidneys, lead to lethargy, gastrointestinal symptoms, low blood pressure and cardiac arrest having too much magnesium in the blood is bad. Especially if you have existing kidney issues.
Consuming too much of anything is dangerous by the way.
For magnesium it would be enormous quantities to be too much
Magnesium is not a water, soluble vitamin. So it doesn’t easily flush out of your system if you take too much. So it is very dangerous if you take too much. I can shut your kidneys down and actually cause cardiac arrest when it drops your blood pressure down so low.@@Djems94
Its difficult to over consume too much magnesium, its already difficult to get it from diet.
the body stores Mg mostly in the cells and bones and regulates carefully the amount circulating in the blood to be just right. we can only absorb about a third Mg from any supplement we take, so it takes at least 3 months to top up deficient levels. in hospital Mg is given at high strength intravenously for pre eclampsia, so they do not consider that dangerous.
Consuming too much water can damage your kidneys, lead to lethargy, gastrointestinal symptoms, unhealthy bloody pressure and cardiac arrest having too much water in the boood is bad. Especially if you have existing kidney issues.
That’s what you sound like.
19 bucks a month? Damn. I’ll stick with Huberman.
Where can I see the rest of the discussion?
States at the end that you have to be a premium member.

@@HH-gv8mxExcept your body excretes excess
@@HH-gv8mxand too much of anything including water can be bad for you. Magnesium is a super common deficiency
Yes I know all about that. 💦 🏃
I went to the emergency room for different issue and they wouldn’t let me leave and kept me in there for a couple days because my sodium was so low they were afraid I was going to have seizures. I came in with my 1 L bottle of water from running. And they took it away from me and would not let me drink water while I was there.@@Scottlp2
Heartrate w over potassium
Not listening to a cliffhanger. Bye
I think it would be helpful for your credibility if you introduced yourself as "Dr." Peter Attia,....although not adding the "Dr." shows a degree of humility or humbleness, introducing yourself as DR would establish your credibility right out of the gate,.....I needed to look and see if you were an MD and it would be better just to say it,...(in my opinion)--
bye
Why is your partner whispering? Please ask him to speak up. He's really articulate but distracting
Indeed quite strange
Mg is potentially bad if one has diabetes or CKD. What else?
Why are we whispering?
Strange that he takes 3 or 4 different magnesium supplements daily? Not too much?
IIRC Mg is Catabolic so probably yes if he wants to increase muscle mass
where is the rest lol?
So cognitive affect
You and Andrew going "premium" together? I already pay for RUclips to listen to content uninterrupted. Don't our tax dollars go towards science?
As a physician I find these episodes useless. Who cares what you did as a resident 25 years ago, Peter. You are not an expert in magnesium.
$19 a month. I'll tolerate the commercials.
Drive sneak peak= I'm going to give you zero useful information in this video and the video headline is a thirst trap, that would make an onlyfans marketer blush, to get you to pay to subscribe his podcast.
