Magnesium The Relaxing Mineral & the Best Deal in Health

To build a good house, start with good foundations. When you build a healthy body, the foundations are the seven major minerals and eighty trace minerals. While the body can manufacture many things that it needs, minerals only come through our foods and supplements. While calcium is the largest mineral it\u2019s most important co-worker is magnesium. Calcium makes the cells strong and magnesium makes the cell relax, so nutrition can enter and toxins can leave. Most healthy foods contain calcium and magnesium in an ideal proportion of 2:1 (two to one), but these days, people need increasingly large amounts of magnesium. Why? Because in the twentieth century America was electrified, literally!<\/p>\n

The typical 1900\u2019s house used gaslights, oil lamps and coal. The same home in 2000 might use natural gas for heating, but everything else, including hundreds of devices that didn\u2019t exist in 1900, would be powered by electricity and producing electromagnetic fields. The body tells the muscles to tighten by sending an electrical signal along the nervous system. When you\u2019re exposed to electromagnetic fields your muscles tighten. When that electrical signal stops, the muscles relax. The body moves because muscles on one side of a bone tighten while the opposing muscles relax. But an electromagnetic field makes all the muscles tighten, how much depends upon the strength of the field. Constricting muscles restrict blood vessels, starving various systems for nutrients and oxygen.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s not good! So the body pulls magnesium, the relaxing mineral, from the muscles and bones where it\u2019s stored and puts it into the bloodstream to get everything to relax. The American diet never adjusted to the growing need for magnesium, so most people are magnesium deficient. While a lack of calcium causes structural problems, magnesium deficiencies are often more painful and uncomfortable. That\u2019s why taking magnesium often produces very fast relief. Here are the obvious signs of a magnesium deficiency? Pain and tightness in the forehead and back of the neck reaching the upper back, constipation or sluggish bowels, heart palpitations, leg cramps, migraine headaches, and PMS.<\/p>\n

A craving for chocolate can be a craving for magnesium, although that can also be the body asking for the good fats found in essential fatty acids, in this case, cocoa butter. These signs are typically the body screaming for magnesium. A lack of magnesium can contribute to hormonal imbalances, digestive problems, nervous twitches, jaw and joint pain. These are just the most obvious issues because magnesium is essential for the liver, (the factory of the body), in the production of hundreds of enzymes, (the worker bees of the body). Without magnesium you have a lot of workers running around without the tools they need to get the daily work of the body done.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s calcium-magnesium combination supplements are typically compounded with this \u2018two to one\u2019 proportion, but statistically speaking, you probably need extra magnesium, unless you\u2019re planning on giving up the electricity in your home and workplace. How much extra magnesium do you need? That\u2019s a very individual thing. While 200 additional milligrams of magnesium is typical, people who work with computers and electronics often need an additional 400 to 600 milligrams daily. The best way to know is by asking your bowels. When the bowels are tight you need more and when the bowels are loose you need less.<\/p>\n

We call this working to bowel tolerance. Start slowly with any herb or supplement and build up to the ideal amount. Here\u2019s an easy method based upon a capsule containing 100 milligrams of magnesium. Day 1: take 1 magnesium. Day 2: take 2. Day 3: take 3, and so on, adding one more daily until one of two things happens; Either your bowels get loose (the sign of excess magnesium) or you reach 10 a day. If you are taking 10 daily and your bowels are not loose, continue taking 10 daily until they do get loose. That means you were dramatically low in your magnesium reserves.<\/p>\n

When we say loose bowels we mean just that. You won\u2019t find yourself in a panic, running to the bathroom. But when you go, you\u2019ll think, \u201cThat\u2019s interesting and very quick!\u201d The bowels know all about minerals. When your bowels get loose, stop taking the magnesium for two days and then resume with 1-2 a day, or whatever amount keeps your bowels moving comfortably. Magnesium is one of the most helpful and least expensive supplements for everyone. If you\u2019re going to use electricity you need extra magnesium.<\/p>\n
