This is freaking fascinating. Internet is a place for a lot of toxicity but man, free access information like this might make it worth it.

I was having heart palpitations for weeks. I had been on a “fitness health kick” so I was eating healthy whole foods, but reduced calories. I was also working out hard every day with weights, cardio and a steam room session, so sweating a lot daily. I thought I had a serious heart issue! After a little research, I started taking a magnesium supplement - my heart palpitations stopped the following day! Magnesium has a big effect on heart rhythm

I've had worsening dysphagia since the age of 10. I'm 38 now and this year I couldn't swallow anything without chasing it with water or some other drink. I started taking a magnesium bis glycinate drink last week. Dysphagia cleared up the next day. I can easily swallow my food. A MIRACLE after a lifes worth of near choking to death moments.

30 - 40 yrs ago the Australian Broadcasting Commission did a program on the town that couldn't keep it's doctors. The towns residents generally gardened their own vegetables. The soil was very high in Magnesium. The doctors were interviewed, and were able to testify that all the general reasons for going to the doctor were absent..

I am grateful that you went through the difficult years necessary to learn all this, and the patience to teach it to others.

The most informative video on magnesium on KZfaq. All science based and no nonsense. Thanks Dr.El-Khodor. Amazing introduction.

9:35 neuro muscle 10:11 central nervous system 15:52 glutathione 28:31 30:20 31:23

I am thankful for this video having been posted to my phone. It solidified my concept on the importance of Magnesium in our diet. I had suffered a lot of severe cramps in my thighs so devastating I felt one day it will trigger a heart attack therefore I put my thinking cap on about the physiology of muscle contraction, which among other dietary & micro mineral elements relies on Calcium & Magnesium. The moment I put myself on Magnesium Supplement as far back as the 80s, I was free from these severe cramps & irregular heart beats. To everyone out there, take this lecture as an important message to protect you from serious ill health. Prevention is better than cure.

Deficiency is primarily due to the milling of grains. Minerals lie in the outer layers of the grain that is removed Indigenous peoples for eons have used corn as a staple in the diet. American Indians, Latin people’s (formerly Incaz) Indian and middle Eastern Take foods rich in magnesium part of diet Yellow vegetables ,pumpkins, butternut squash, The body functions by constant contraction and relaxation Calcium causes contractions Magnesium causes relaxation

One of the Most Finest Lectures. This explained so many questions most doctors missed and never bothered to understand. Thank you very much. You helped me a lot today.

There are clinical symptoms of magnesium deficiency. Anxiety and the problem of the brain not to stop thinking, not allowing people to fall asleep.

This is truly quite educational. It’s an eye opener. Quite detailed. Thank you 🙏🏽

Excellent presentation. Thank you. As holistic nutritionist I've rarely heard such a thorough scientific report including codependencies and interactions. Great lecture!

This is a great presentation- giving the entire story and magnesium's connection to other nutrients. Thank you kindly.

Magnesium is critical! Performs 1300 functions in the body. I had heart palpitations and serious gut issues for years. I got on the correct type of magnesium, and my gut issues stopped in one week, my heart palpitations stopped in 24 hours, which shocked me. Plus, I’m resting better at night. I’m so grateful to have learned this!

The best discussion on Magnesium deficiency and what is causing this dangerous condition.Thank you!

One of the best lectures on KZfaq ever. I thought I knew a lot about magnesium. About 50% of this content was new to me. Thank you for being generous by sharing your knowledge.

I found this video to be best one out there on the topic of magnesium, causes of deficiency, its role on the nervous system and ways to supplement if necessary.

The medical industrial complex's failure to properly research and diagnose and treat diet and microbiome and sleep and vital nutritional deficiency issues (including those related to Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 and Magnesium deficiencies as well as iatrogenic prescription medication usage) is a major reason why psychiatric iatrogenesis is a primary contributor to the third leading cause of death in the U.S. (which is iatrogenesis in general). If the U.S. spent just a fraction of the over $40 billion each year it spends just on iatrogenic psychiatric drugs alone, for properly researching the issues discussed in this and related KZfaq presentations we would probably, Lord willing, achieve an absolute revolution in medical efficacy improvement and iatrogenesis reduction. Thomas Steven Roth, MBA, MD Christian Minister for Biblical Medical Ethics, and therefore, Scientific and Religious Refugee from the Clinical Practice of Psychiatric Standards of Care

I like this lecture. Please do more presentations on Magnesium. Thank you.

Iv been using magnesium oil rubbed on my feet and joints for over a yr and all aches and pain seem to hv gone , energy regained , brain fog clearing up I'm 78 and believe it is the fountain of youth , Al though I'm not a doctor but a health nut who wants to live a long healthy life I believe oil travel though the body better than the pills and is more natural

Thank you! Excellent overview, I would add overhydration/diuretics= loss of magnesium through urine….

🍁 maple syrup is high in magnesium..the tree moves nutrition roots to leaves of maple tree we harvest the sap boil to reduce water and get thick syrup/ concentrated magnesium 1to2 oz on a regular basis is healthy

I had cognitive issues , insomnia , bone and joint pain I had headaches I also had crazy electric tingling down my arms and legs I felt so weak just going up stairs . I felt dissociated and had horrible focus I felt tired all the time . I follow a gluten and dairy free diet , rarely use caffeine . I eat paleo , I don’t use drugs . I don’t drink or use nicotine products either. Nutrients are vital you guys magneisum has helped a lot with many of these things . I was always feeling anxious physically without any external reasons for stress and that is way way down its actually sur real to me . I use 400mg mag taurate per day .

My neurologist recommended I take 500mg of magnesium with 400mg of B2. It reduced or eliminated premigraine symptoms. It’s difficult to find either in most pharmacies in Ontario. My results were good.

My brain is hurting! So much solid information…will definitely listen again with notepad in hand. Thank you for sharing so much so well🙌🏻

For years I had Restless Leg Symptoms at night. This led to poor sleep, brain, fog, low mood etc. Drs had no idea but decided to take magnesium and wow! I now sleep at night.

If my leg is cramping, magnesium immediately handles it, especially magnesium oil, massaged into the muscle. One time I drank a soda with Aspartame, it caused heart palpitations, I immediately drank a calcium magnesium powder in water, and my heart returned to normal. I don’t use Aspartame as a general rule.

Saba el-Her, best lecture on Mg mineral which supposedly 70% are deficient in. All magnesium is good, from food is best.

Seem to get foot and leg cramps if I drink too much coffee, its alleviated by taking magnesium if that does not work potassium.

This expert lecturer won me over - subscribed!

Massive Magnesium deficiency here …..my father had chronic migraines growing up as a child. My mother had ectopic heartbeats since pregnant with me , in the mid 80’s doctors were clueless to it. For the last 2 years at least my asthma symptoms started up again HAVENT had since a child. Almost 40. GUT issues that won’t heal, constipation almost like CHRONIC IBS , PMS , Energy drain, dizziness, insomnia, nausea, blood sugar going high and low , feeling absolutely horrible. Leg cramps too good night those are horrible. Brain fog 😶‍🌫️ nothing heals it. Had to have an emergency appointment with my doctor 👩‍⚕️ last Friday felt as if I was going to land in a hospital. Upping magnesium like crazy….Using different magnesium glycinate, citrate,malate, theonate,…..anxiety,ocd,depression, paranoia,hallucinations, dizziness, fibromyalgia almost, allergies worsening. 😢😢😢😢

And that why I grow my own organic food....amazing presentation, thank you for study and learn so we can benefit from it.

Apart from sleep and cognitive issues, I had begun to experiences brief but alarming episodes of double vision - the scary type which goes away when one eye is closed, returns when you open it again. This all very quickly resolved once I began to take a Mg-containing mineral supplement, so that, like the comment on dysphagia below, I suspect the double vison may have been a much less common manifestation of Mg deficiency. As a large animal veterinarian, I might add that both acute and chronic deficiencies of Mg have long been well recognized in farm animals, and particularly in stressed/lactating ruminants or those from whom calves have been recently removed...Most sincere thanks again to Dr El-Khodor! Tom Kelly.

Why don’t you leave your various charts on the screen instead of going right back to you on screen (we know what you look like) we can’t see what you’re talking about if you quickly take it off screen !

So proud of you...for the valuable information..., I needed myself as I have low Thyroid hormone issues...! So, hope I find one of your talks about Thyroidism and Magnesium levels and intake. Thank you...

Thank you so much for sharing this knowledge with all of us. Magnesium L-Threonate is one of my supplements to enhance memory and cognitive function. It works amazingly.

People claim magnesium glycinate works great. I found this out when I was trying to purchase it for the first time.

Excellent and informative , thank you so very much... I need to listen several more times but the big takeaway for me was the magnesium/nervous system connection.🙏🏽👍

RDI is really the minimum, may even be not enough. Vitamin D specs at 400-600i.u. per day, but 5000i.u. helps prevent cancer of some forms. Same goes for Iodine, 150mcg/day may suffice to prevent goiter, but insufficient to stimulate the brain and prevent cysts, breast or prostate cancers. With Magnesium, i take one teaspoon(3g?) of Magnesium bisglycinate to get only 300mg of Magnesium element. It was cited to prevent colon and pancreatic cancers.

It’s nice listening to his lecture, gives me good recall of my Biochemistry subject. 😊 Thank you so much 😇

WOW this is the most comprehensive scientific presentation about magnesium and its role in the human body

My Holistic doctor has me taking a lot of different vitamins, they know how important vitamins are for a person. Even how to avoid Covid with different vitamins.

I wanted to add some thing that I don’t think people really pay attention to, you need to do research if you’re on any prescription medication or even over-the-counter medication‘s, because a lot of them deplete you of certain vitamins and minerals and people think it’s caused from something else and it can be some medication you’re on like the type two diabetic medicine makes you low in B12 I never knew that I just found that out today so I started looking at all these prescriptions the doctors give to me but I don’t take but I was in the beginning till they started making me so sick I couldn’t handle it no more and then I ended up depleted and everything almost I was actually malnutrition from GMO prescription drugs and you can’t take the synthetic potassium like they were giving me when they put me on a water pill because it’s synthetic so I started eating pistachios they taste better anyway anyway make sure if you’re on any kind of medication over-the-counter or prescription, because over-the-counter drugs at one time were prescriptions like Benadryl it was one of the first anti-anxiety medication in a sleep aid and believe me they defeat you of something so don’t get all freaked out about everything if you get a cramp in your calf it could be caused from the medicine you took

Who is giving this a thumbs down, honestly

Any chance of getting a copy of those slides? I really need to study them. I've had leg cramps as long as I can remember, and high blood pressure all my life. I was hospitalized with high blood pressure as a child- but when my mother was not in the room, it went down to normal. She was my primary abuser, and it would have been nice if someone used that knowledge to take me out of that home. My father also had a violent temper and my sister was born with a serious birth defect for which she was beaten every day. A totally messed up home. I have C-PTSD, some dissociation, and bad ADD as a result. For many years they treated my blood pressure by including Potassium, which I know now only made it all worse. I also have fibromyalgia. I take the max. magnesium and supplement with it externally. But still gets cramps and spasms that are very painful. I was doing well with Now brand Magnesium Transporters, which are pills. But I was getting low on them so I went back to KAL brand fizzy magnesium, Heart Healthy Magnesium Taurate because I thought my heart was most important. But the spasms are back. Oh, and I do have IBS. Lately it's been diahrea. And decades ago I took Calcium because I can't tolerate dairy. Oh and I have great difficulty consuming leafy greens because I don't have any molars to chew with. I use a vege blend powedred supplement but it's expensive so I don't use much. it probably would help if I used more. I'm not a doctor but I've been studying my health issues for a number of years and with the information on those slides to guide me I bet I can do more. I turned 70 years recently which to me is amazing. I have a lot of chemical sensitivities and was suicidal from the pain before the got the mercury removed from my teeth- I never imagined I'd live to see the year 2000, but I did and I'm still here. Are the slides on a website somewhere? Please.

This seems to be not only a health crisis but also a farming crisis. A result of hyper harvesting and mono crops. I have to believe there is still time to change our farming practice to be more gentle to the earth. This is will wield better health results and profit the human race in the long run.

I take Magnesium Sulfate in my black coffee, I notice my leg pain after a run is gone.

I take magnesium at night.. it helps me, to sleep well!

I Certifying in Nutrition and wellness. I can't wait to teach this class. Thank you.

TIP … Mg is unpleasant (bitter tasting) if you add it to your water UNLESS you leave the water to stand over night … then it becomes sweet tasting. Surprisingly sweet! (I use Mg Chloride flakes)

Excellent presentation! Very informative and full of facts. I am grateful.

Could listen to him all day.

After taking 14 metronidazole and 10 ciprofloxacin my heart used to race I thought I was dying for 2yrs. I was introduced to glycinate and byglycinate. It was magic.

Love your detailed lecture, sir. Some sell Ca & Mg in one tablet/capsule combined. Is it possible to get full benefits of both minerals? Thank you kindly.

Dr please advise which particular form and dosage is best, and any essential co-nutrients that must be taken concurrently as well. Thankyou so very much 😊🌷

🙏 Thank You Very Much for this amazing wealth of information.

thanks for uploading this!

He seems to be saying that diet high in grains and grain products which cause lower stomach acid due to the sodium bicarbonate in breads and in many cases the use of antacids lowers the breakdown of magnesium and lowers the amount of magnesium that will be found in the bloodstream

Very good presentation, interesting ,thank you.

I only took the time to listen to this bc I was interested in his opinion about magnesium chloride yet he NEVER once mentioned it. Wonder why cuz it is soooo helpful for older ppl.

The first 5 not me the 6,7,8,9 that me standing for long i dont feel stong cause my bones very weaker than i think how i know my misses hold my finger tight and it feel like it was brok lool my bones pop my kness hurt csnnot ben down and came up fast well am trying my mag know it mite take 3 months b4 any little help and high blood sugar 😢so i know mag helping that 😊

Fine presentation. Magnesium is beautiful. Worth studying.

So what is a good form of magnesium to get into the CNS?

aluminum increase thru the air column, ...heavy water purification treatment like we experience here in DFW area TX, USA during warmer times of the year, these are huge causes of Mg def for plants and us.

Thank you so much for your very informative talk.

The FIRST recommendation for a healthy diet is to thank God for your food and JOYFULLY eat it.

It would be better if the camera was pointed at the diagrams instead of the speaker.

This is very helpful for us. Thanks

Taking magnesium glycinate each day just 2 caps = Nvr of over 5200% lol with zinc 40mg & 1mg copper and vit c 1000mg (ascorbic acid) then cholerra spirulina Collagen a blend 8 diff mushrooms. Also vit D3 of 8000iu with K complex and just started all that 2 months ago adding 7 products each month.

This is pure gold💛 👌

I’ve been keto for 8 years for GSD type V(5). I’ve always supplemented ionic mag citrate, recently added mag glycinate. I can tell in two days if I miss. Calf cramps and feet wake me up! And God help me if the sartorius gets in the game! Groin to big toe! Been adding potassium and extra Himalayan pink solé as well. So much better having to supplement salts than to go back to the old way of eating!

Excellent presentation! A.Gilani, MD

very important information which can prevent so many conditions

ExaTest is mentioned as the most accurate method of establishing your systemic Mg status. I've been trying to get them to respond for the last 2 years. They originally said they weren't taking international samples due to Covid. Surely they are now accepting international samples again? What does it take to get them to respond? 😞

i had no clue magnesium affect estrogen. I have severe menopause issues . will add magnesium now !!!

Great information! Thank you!

Which magnesium ?? Citrate? Ozonated magnesium oxides ? ?glycinate?

It’s hard knowing what to take. I take triple calm. It is a blend of 3

Great information on Magnesium defciency. Thank you!

It's also up to the lay people to pass this information on to our family Doctors and specialists too. Thank you and God Bless!

Magnesium is given to folks with high blood pressure. The calming effect is better.

I have serious magnesium deficiency, I have severe pain in my body each day I have to swallow more pain killers every day, what can I do to help my self. I need something specific. Thank you

What are the neurological symptoms of magnesium deficiency? Acute or chronic magnesium deficiency may affect the nervous system. Acute magnesium deficiency leads to metabolic encephalopathy and alteration of neuromuscular excitability, such as deprementia and nervousness. By contrast, chronic magnesium deficiency is characterized by ------------------ Spasm. What does lack of magnesium do to the brain? Recent studies have associated Mg-deficiency with many neurological disorders, such as cerebral vasospasm, Alzheimer's disease, stroke, and migraine. What are the mental symptoms of magnesium deficiency? Dietary deficiencies of magnesium, coupled with excess calcium and stress may cause many cases of other related symptoms including agitation, anxiety, irritability, confusion, asthenia, sleeplessness, headache, delirium, hallucinations and hyperexcitability, with each of these having been previously documented. Can a deficiency of magnesium cause neurological symptoms? Twitches, tremors, and muscle cramps are signs of magnesium deficiency. In worst-case scenarios, deficiency may even cause seizures or convulsions. Scientists believe these symptoms are caused by a greater flow of calcium into nerve cells, which overexcites or hyperstimulates the muscle nerves. Can low magnesium cause brain fog? Magnesium is a trace mineral that plays an important role in energy production and nerve function. Your body needs magnesium to activate various enzymes involved in converting food into energy and keeping your neurons healthy. Magnesium deficiency can lead to brain fog, impaired focus, and anxiety. Can low magnesium cause cognitive issues? Low magnesium concentration is associated with poor cognitive function. The concentration of magnesium in patients with Alzheimer's disease and mild cognitive impairment was lower than that in normal participants. How to tell if magnesium is low? Symptoms of magnesium deficiency. - Low appetite. - Nausea and vomiting. - Fatigue and weakness. - Muscle spasms or tremors. - Abnormal heart rhythms. What organs does low magnesium affect? Every organ in the body, especially the heart, muscles, and kidneys, needs the mineral magnesium. It also contributes to the makeup of teeth and bones. Magnesium is needed for many functions in the body. This includes the physical and chemical processes in the body that convert or use energy (metabolism). How long does it take to correct magnesium deficiency? Chronic magnesium deficiency is often associated with normal serum magnesium despite deficiency in cells and in bone; the response to oral supplementation is slow and may take up to 40 weeks to reach a steady state. Does coffee deplete magnesium? Coffee does not directly affect magnesium in your body. But it halts the further absorption of magnesium gradually in your intestines. The more coffee you consume, the less your magnesium absorption rate gets. But a heavy dose of coffee can lead to magnesium depletion.

Great presentation of the whole picture we needed a reminder from time to time repeating the mistakes of nutrition and memory additions to the highest level of sound relatively small number of hits is unrealized and expertise of finding the points of brain enhances in spectrums we still have to learn how to build it well being of mind memory

Another reason to support Organic farming !

What dose mag glycinate to take for sleep, anxiety, fatigue ?

Thank God for you and this video! I have been struggling with this for years! So much good information!

I absorb my Mg from EPSOM salts bath much better than the orally administered Mg bisglycinate or threonate I've used to take.

When you get blood work done at the Dr's office it seems it doesn't go deep enough to get what your vitamin and mineral values are. Who would you go to to get a blood test that shows all you vitamins and minerals you are lacking?

A lot of people have stomach malabsorption of magnesium, b12, iron and vitamin D. Magnesiumcitrate is the type you can absorb even when stomach acid is weak. Be aware too much stomach acid in the oesophagus is the way low acid presents itself as in GERD.

Sir I have pangastritis I take 3 months antibiotics,proton pump inhibitors heavy dose now I'm suffering from dizziness any time,undigested food in stool,anxiety my BP is 170/100 can I take magnesium supplements helpful for me pls tell sir

Thanks for this very informative and helpful video

Thanks for such an informative talk. It explains so much I'll health around the world. Only came upon your channel today 2nd Oct 2022. 😺💚🍀💚😺

Oh for CC ,one out of ten words understood and I need this lecture 😧😮

Great presentation. Very informative.

very very useful thanks, you sir.

Biochemical balance of minerals is required for for proper functioning of the body systems (ie: the body employs Calcium to contract muscle tissue. Conversely, it uses Magnesium to trigger relaxation of the muscle, otherwise cramping may result) It’s the ratio of calcium to magnesium that is important to proper functioning. (Likewise, the body must maintain the proper ratio (balance) between Sodium and Potassium, else blood pressure will be adversely affected)

give us the foods that are the good source of magnesium and we will consume them!

Thanks for this video.
