Wow didnt know theres so many magnesium versions.. excerpts: Magnesium citrate *Absorbs easily This can potentially be good for: • Nocturnal leg cramps • Constipation • Preventing headaches Magnesium glycinate *Absorbs easily * No laxative effects This can potentially be good for: • Promoting a sense of calm • Supporting sleep • Reducing anxiety • Reducing inflammation • Supporting the blood sugars Magnesium threonate *Best for the brain This can potentially be good for: • Improving cognitive function • Preventing the loss of synapses (in animal studies) Magnesium orotate *Good for top athletes. This can potentially be good for: • Improving energy • Supporting the mitochondria Magnesium taurate This can potentially be good for: • Supporting the blood sugars • Supporting blood pressure (in animal studies) Magnesium malate * Laxative effect is small to none This can potentially be good for: • Fibromyalgia • Chronic fatigue syndrome You may want to avoid these versions of magnesium: • Magnesium sulfate • Magnesium carbonate • Magnesium oxide • Magnesium hydroxide Vitamins that support the absorption of magnesium • Vitamin D • Vitamin B6 Thank you Dr Berg🐱👍

I've searched through every label from every vitamin company supplier and they're ALL Magnesium Oxide. So, I'm doing the following: Continuing to avoid (as much as possible) the gunk that's out there. Not allow stress to push me around, but trust GD. Buy only organic plants or seeds. Grow my own healthy organic salad varieties. Fertilize organically. Don't spray them with poison. Keep them happy. Protect the bees from spider webs (I relocate the spiders, even if they're whoppers). Make a deal with the slugs, i.e. "Thus far and no further." Use no bee-killing pesticides, no bee-killing sticky, yellow fly paper. Pray for Jesus' help all along the journey. And Gd's peace be with you.

What do you think of magnesium chloride? Mixed in a greater than 1:1 solution with water it's called magnesium "oil". I find it useful applied to the skin above a cramping muscle. I've also discovered that the 'oil' makes a decent deodorant - and using it for that gets me a bit more magnesium (I take 800mg / day of magnesium citrate) I've tried magnesium sulphate (epsom salts) for cramping, doesn't work nearly as well, but the crystals are about a tenth the cost of magnesium chloride (I make my own 'oil') and it probably works about half as well - so maybe a good choice for someone trying not to spend a lot.

That’s a very generic question- it depends on which amino acids your body is producing as to which compounds they bind with if at all or pass through unbound and unabsorbed. That’s why 99% of people here keep rabbiting on about how they literally take no supplements and get everything from food yet remain obtuse and wilfully ignorant of how absorption even works. They’re the biggest time wasters on this channel.

@@aidele5757 he’s also said many times in various videos tho that numerous factors with interfere with your body’s ability to do that effectively or sabotage it. I personally think 10 cups of vegetables a day is idiotic especially for small statured women or sedentary/ injured sick women etc. Having said that, not a single person on earth gets any kind of daily report their body spits out a confirmation receipt for, that states how much from meal x or y went towards magnesium, calcium, vitamin C etc and what chemical compound it was bound to for absorption. You just have to make an assumption that it did it in some form, and in enough quantities then had all the other factors line up like no malabsorption, no stomach acid issues, no issues with digestive enzymes, no celiac, no antibiotics, no situation where you ate spinach but forgot to add in lemon or lime juice to break the oxylate bond so that you could absorb its nutrients, no other supplements you took that interferes with absorption of each other eg didn’t take minerals at the same time and a host of other variables. Unless you literally do eat 10 cups of veggies a day which hardly anyone does especially on OMAD etc then there are nutrients you’re not getting and leaving it to chance to get them all from food every day.

Dr. Berg, I just started taking your electrolyte powder, and love it! Also, I ordered your regular sleep aid and I’m hoping to get it today, because I have trouble sleeping, either falling asleep or waking up too early, etc. I’m 66 years old and have been postmenopausal since the age of 50, when I had a total hysterectomy followed by surgically induced menopause. I’ve never taken any hormones, and am not on any prescription medication. I try to only take vitamins and other supplements. I am currently doing a ketogenic diet since May 17, and I am exercising about 5 to 7 hours a week. I need to lose more weight, and am mostly needing to know which of your supplements to take. So far, I’ve only ordered the electrolyte powder and the sleep aid. Is there anything else that I need, and I’m especially wondering about multivitamins, magnesium, and CoQ10. Thank you so much!

Hey Dr Berg, I am a huge fan of yours! Random question for you. Seems like you have recommended Magnesium to many of your clients. I have been on 120 Mg of Pure encapilcaitons glycinate. I want to increase sleep quality, reduce stress(even though it is much better than it was), and increase energy. This is the question. I know we need 300-400 mg of magnesium. I tried to take more. I did 240 one day then got up to about 350mg. I know this must be very uncommon but it increased my anxiety. It was like it turned on the fight or flight mode and then when I backed off it the next few days things got better. Most days my anxiety is a 2-3 but it got up to an 8 and nothing stressful was going on. I saw a few people saying this when I was reading some Amazon reviews. I take an Omega 3, 2000-3000 Iu of Vitamin d per day(including the amount in multi) and that's it. It is really odd. Maybe the mechanism of glycine is causing this? Any guesses? Obviously, there is no way to know for certain. :) Thanks in advance!

Ohhhh thank you! I know this was very short and succinct video, but I promise this is EXACTLY what I needed. From your list, I believe I'd do better with the Magnesium Glycinate, as I experience a lot of restlessness, anxiety, blood sugar inconsistencies, and lack of sleep but no issues w/constipation, as the magnesium citrate seems to help with more. I have acutely low vitamin D and saw somewhere it doesn't work as effectively if you don't have magnesium of some sort. I am going to try to combine/increase my intake of these two along with the vitamin B6 mentioned here. Also, now I understand why my mom would ask me to pick up her some magnesium citrate, as she has most of the symptoms that fall under that one. Leg cramps, constipation etc. A million thanks!
