Magnesium
Magnesium may be one of our most important health-promoting minerals.
Studies suggest that, as well as enhancing some 300 enzyme-related processes in the body, magnesium may help to prevent or combat many chronic diseases.

The average person's body contains just under 30 grams of magnesium, but this small amount is vital to a number of bodily functions. Many people do not have adequate stores of magnesium, often because they rely too heavily on processed foods, which contain very little of this mineral. In addition, magnesium levels are easily depleted by stress, certain diseases or medications and intense physical activity. For this reason, nutritional supplements may be needed for the maintenance of optimal health.

There has been much research published for magnesium and a
few of the benefits reported include:

  • Ease symptoms of musculoskeletal aches and pains such as
    chronic fatigue, back pain, fibromyalgia etc.
  • Helps to protect against heart disease and arrhythmia.
  • Helps to lower blood pressure.
  • Can help to lower cholesterol - can boost the efficiency of Statins
    and help reduce the daily statin doseage.
  • May reduce the severity of asthma attacks.
  • Improves symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS)
  • Aids in preventing the complications of diabetes.

Precautions: People with kidney disease should seek medical advice before taking magnesium. Magnesium can reduce the effectiveness of tetracycline antibiotics.
Unless you are certain about your tolerance to magnesium don't exceed 2 teaspoon (5gm) at any one serving as this may cause loose bowels

Reminder: If you have a medical condition, consult your doctor before taking any type of supplements.

Side Effects: May cause occational loose bowels . - reduce dosage if this occurs.
May cause drowsiness if excess doseage is used. If this occurs reduce doseage.

Directions for use: It is best to develop a tolerance to magnesium supplementation In the first 2/3 days sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon (1.25gm) into 200mL water 4 times a day - preferably taken with food. Increase to 1 teaspoon (2.5gm) sprinkled into 200mL water 4 times a day once tolerance has been established. Musculosletal pain may require higher doses and these can be estab;ished by gradually increasing in line with intestinal tolerance.
