    \n
  1. Routine blood tests do not reveal intracellular magnesium. When your doctor says \u201cyour magnesium is fine,\u201d she simply means the 1 percent normally found in the blood is present. A correlation does not exist between blood (serum) and intracellular magnesium.\u00a0The measurement of magnesium in serum has very limited medical significance.<\/li>\n
  2. Metabolizing highly processed carbohydrates \u2013 food products with corn syrup, sugar, flour, and box cereals \u2013 cause magnesium losses in the urine. Magnesium is required for optimum blood sugar control.\u00a0 Poor blood sugar control, in turn, increases the rate of magnesium excretion further impairing blood sugar metabolism. (Dr. Atkins referred to diabetes type 2 as a magnesium deficiency disease.)<\/li>\n
  3. Commonly prescribed diuretic drugs prevent the kidneys from recycling magnesium (and potassium and sodium), yet most doctors tell their patients to supplement with calcium \u2013 not magnesium. Excess calcium from supplements and so called fortified food products aggravates the important calcium-magnesium balance in favor of calcium.<\/li>\n
  4. Stress of all kinds causes loss of magnesium. Extreme exercise, running, sweating, and even shivering in the cold promotes magnesium excretion. Anger, driving in rush hour traffic, depression, guilt, and fear all involve sympathetic nervous system activation, increased adrenaline \u2013 and loss of magnesium.<\/li>\n
  5. We need stomach acid to absorb minerals. Our bodies require magnesium to produce stomach acid. A magnesium deficiency reduces stomach acid which, in turn, reduces mineral absorption. (Keep in mind that the symptoms of excess and insufficient stomach acid are the same.) Don\u2019t reach for an \u201cantacid,\u201d get your intracellular magnesium tested instead.<\/li>\n
  6. Due to low stomach acid, reduced nutrient absorption, and the use of diuretic drugs for hypertension, the elderly are at greatest risk of magnesium deficiency. Most cases go unnoticed because doctors do not perform intracellular testing (see #1 above) and quite often discourage any type of nutritional supplementation.<\/li>\n
  7. A quick way to produce kidney stones in animals is to put them on a magnesium deficit diet. Magnesium increases the solubility of calcium in the urine, helping to prevent stone formation. Also, most patients with Chronic Fatigue, fibromyalgia, Parkinson\u2019s, Alzheimer\u2019s and MS are deficient in magnesium and would likely benefit from supplemental magnesium.<\/li>\n
  8. Magnesium, boron, strontium and many other minerals add significantly to the quality of bones and teeth. Magnesium regulates the absorption and utilization of calcium. Without sufficient magnesium, bone building and joint health suffer. Regardless of calcium intake (usually too much), magnesium deficiency leads to arthritis, brittle bones, and osteoporosis.<\/li>\n
  9. Concentrated 18 times greater in the heart muscle than in the bloodstream, magnesium regulates heart beat. Magnesium is vital for the heart, arteries, and the cardiovascular system. People dying as a result of obesity, diabetes, metabolic syndrome and coronary heart disease have this in common: intracellular magnesium deficiency.<\/li>\n
  10. Supplemental calcium and magnesium should be in a 1:1 ratio or perhaps a 2:1 ratio in favor of magnesium. (Multiple vitamins fail in this regard and often contain cheap, poorly absorbed calcium carbonate and magnesium oxide. While natural whole food is always our best source of minerals, magnesium levels in food have declined substantially during the past 100 years (USDA testing). \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Taken from the page of Alan Watson, Nutritionist.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
