Magnesium deficiency is a cause and essential treatment for cancer that oncologists completely overlook.  Magnesium is a serious cancer medicine because it stabilizes ATP and allows for DNA and RNA transcriptions and repairs. Magnesium deficiency has been shown to be carcinogenic, and in the case of solid tumors, a high level of supplemented magnesium inhibits carcinogenesis. Magnesium repletion has been shown to produce rapid disappearances of periosteal tumors.

Magnesium Deficiency Symptoms and Diagnosis

Published on December 8, 2009

Magnesium Thirst Magnesium Hunger;

We thirst for magnesium rich water.

Magnesium deficiency is often misdiagnosed because it does not show up in blood tests – only 1% of the body’s magnesium is stored in the blood.

Most doctors and laboratories don’t even include magnesium status in routine blood tests. Thus, most doctors don’t know when their patients are deficient in magnesium, even though studies show that the majority of Americans are deficient in magnesium. Consider Dr. Norman Shealy’s statements, “Every known illness is associated with a magnesium deficiency” and that, “magnesium is the most critical mineral required for electrical stability of every cell in the body. A magnesium deficiency may be responsible for more diseases than any other nutrient.” The truth he states exposes a gapping hole in modern medicine that explains a good deal about iatrogenic death and disease. Because magnesium deficiency is largely overlooked, millions of Americans suffer needlessly or are having their symptoms treated with expensive drugs when they could be cured with magnesium supplementation. 

One has to recognize the signs of magnesium thirst or hunger on their own since allopathic medicine is lost in this regard. It is really something much more subtle then hunger or thirst but it is comparable. In a world though where doctors and patients alike do not even pay attention to thirst and important issues of hydration it is not hopeful that we will find many recognizing and paying attention to magnesium thirst and hunger which is a dramatic way of expressing the concept of magnesium deficiency.

 Few people are aware of the enormous role magnesium plays in our bodies. Magnesium is by far the most important mineral in the body, After oxygen, water, and basic food, magnesium may be the most important element needed by our bodies, vitally important yet hardly known. It is more important than calcium, potassium or sodium and regulates all three of them. Millions suffer daily from magnesium deficiency without even knowing it

In fact there happens to be a relationship between what we perceive as thirst and deficiencies in electrolytes. I remember a person asking, “Why am I dehydrated and thirsty when I drink so much water?” Thirst can mean not only lack of water but it can also mean that one is not getting enough nutrients and electrolytes. Magnesium, Potassium, Bicarbonate, Chloride and Sodium are some principle examples and that is one of the reasons magnesium chloride is so useful.

You know all those years when doctors used to tell their patients its all in your heads were years the medical profession was showing its ignorance. It is a torment to be magnesium deficient on one level or another. Even if it’s for the enthusiastic sport person whose athletic performance is down magnesium deficiency will disturb sleep and background stress levels and a host of other things that reflect on the quality of life. Doctors have not been using the appropriate test for magnesium – their serum blood tests just distort their perceptions. Magnesium has been off their radar screens through the decades that magnesium deficiencies have snowballed.

 Symptoms of Magnesium Deficiency

The first symptoms of deficiency can be subtle – as most magnesium is stored in the tissues, leg cramps, foot pain, or muscle ‘twitches’ can be the first sign. Other early signs of deficiency include loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and weakness. As magnesium deficiency worsens, numbness, tingling, seizures, personality changes, abnormal heart rhythms, and coronary spasms can occur.

A full outline of magnesium deficiency was beautifully presented in a recent article by Dr. Sidney Baker. “Magnesium deficiency can affect virtually every organ system of the body. With regard to skeletal muscle, one may experience twitches, cramps, muscle tension, muscle soreness, including back aches, neck pain, tension headaches and jaw joint (or TMJ) dysfunction. Also, one may experience chest tightness or a peculiar sensation that he can’t take a deep breath. Sometimes a person may sigh a lot.”

“Symptoms involving impaired contraction of smooth muscles include constipation; urinary spasms; menstrual cramps; difficulty swallowing or a lump in the throat-especially provoked by eating sugar; photophobia, especially difficulty adjusting to oncoming bright headlights in the absence of eye disease; and loud noise sensitivity from stapedius muscle tension in the ear.”

“Other symptoms and signs of magnesium deficiency, in terms of how it affects the central nervous system, include insomnia, anxiety, hyperactivity and restlessness with constant movement, panic attacks, agoraphobia, and premenstrual irritability. Magnesium deficiency symptoms involving the peripheral nervous system include numbness, tingling, and other abnormal sensations, such vibratory sensations.”

“Symptoms or signs of the cardiovascular system include palpitations, heart arrhythmias, and angina due to spasms of the coronary arteries, high blood pressure and mitral valve prolapse. Be aware that not all of the symptoms need to be present to presume magnesium deficiency; but, many of them often occur together. For example, people with mitral valve prolapse frequently have palpitations, anxiety, panic attacks and premenstrual symptoms. People with magnesium deficiency often seem to be “uptight.” Other general symptoms include a salt craving, both carbohydrate craving and carbohydrate intolerance, especially of chocolate, and breast tenderness.”

Magnesium is needed by every cell in the body including those of the brain and is one of the most important minerals when considering supplementation because of its vital role in hundreds of enzyme systems and functions related to reactions in cell metabolism, as well as being essential for the synthesis of proteins, for the utilization of fats and carbohydrates. Magnesium is needed not only for the production of specific detoxification enzymes but is also important for energy production related to cell detoxification. A magnesium deficiency can affect virtually every system of the body.

Water rich in magnesium can prevent magnesium deficiency
Like water we need magnesium everyday. There is an eternal need for magnesium as well as water and when magnesium is present in water life and health are enhanced.

One of the principle reason doctors write millions of prescriptions for tranquilizers each year is the nervousness, irritability, and jitters largely brought on by inadequate diets lacking magnesium. Persons only slightly deficient in magnesium become irritable, highly-strung, and sensitive to noise, hyper-excitable, apprehensive and belligerent. If the deficiency is more severe or prolonged, they may develop twitching, tremors, irregular pulse, insomnia, muscle weakness, jerkiness and leg and foot cramps.

If magnesium is severely deficient, the brain is particularly affected. Clouded thinking, confusion, disorientation, marked depression and even the terrifying hallucinations of delirium tremens are largely brought on by a lack of this nutrient and remedied when magnesium is given. Because large amounts of calcium are lost in the urine when magnesium is undersupplied, the lack of this nutrient indirectly becomes responsible for much rampant tooth decay, poor bone development, osteoporosis and slow healing of broken bones and fractures. With vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), magnesium helps to reduce and dissolve calcium phosphate kidney stones.

Magnesium deficiency may be a common factor associated with insulin resistance. Symptoms of MS that are also symptoms of magnesium deficiency include muscle spasms, weakness, twitching, muscle atrophy,  an inability to control the bladder, nystagmus (rapid eye movements), hearing loss, and osteoporosis.  People with MS have higher rates of epilepsy than controls.  Epilepsy has also been linked to magnesium deficiencies.[1]

Another good list of early warning symptoms is:

Suggestive early warning signs of magnesium insufficiency:
Physical and mental fatigue
Persistent under-eye twitch
Tension in the upper back, shoulders and neck
Headaches
Pre-menstrual fluid retention and/or breast tenderness

 

Possible manifestations of magnesium deficiency include:
Low energy, Fatigue, Weakness, Confusion, Nervousness, Anxiousness, Irritability, Seizures (and tantrums), Poor digestion, PMS and hormonal imbalances, Inability to sleep, Muscle tension, spasm and cramps, Calcification of organs, Weakening of the bones, Abnormal heart rhythm.

Severe magnesium deficiency can result in low levels of calcium in the blood (hypocalcemia). Magnesium deficiency is also associated with low levels of potassium in the blood (hypokalemia). Magnesium levels drop at night, leading to poor REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep cycles and unrefreshed sleep. Headaches, blurred vision, mouth ulcers, fatigue and anxiety are also early signs of depletion.

We hear all the time about how heart disease is the number one health crisis in the country, about how high blood pressure is the “silent killer”, and about how ever increasing numbers of our citizens are having their lives and the lives of their families destroyed by diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, and a host of other chronic diseases

Signs of severe magnesium deficiency include:

Extreme thirst
Extreme hunger
Frequent urination
Sores or bruises that heal slowly
Dry, itchy skin
Unexplained weight loss
Blurry vision that changes from day to day
Unusual tiredness or drowsiness
Tingling or numbness in the hands or feet
Frequent or recurring skin, gum, bladder or vaginal yeast infections

But wait a minute, aren’t those the same symptoms for diabetes? Many people have diabetes for about 5 years before they show strong symptoms. By that time, some people already have eye, kidney, gum or nerve damage caused by the deteriorating condition of their cells due to insulin resistance and magnesium deficiency. Dump some mercury and arsenic on the mixture of etiologies and pronto we have the disease condition we call diabetes.

Magnesium deficiency is synonymous with diabetes
and is at the root of many if not all cardiovascular problems.

Magnesium deficiency is synonymous with diabetes and is at the root of many if not all cardiovascular problems.

Magnesium deficiency is a predictor of diabetes and heart disease both; diabetics both need more magnesium and lose more magnesium than most people. In two new studies, in both men and women, those who consumed the most magnesium in their diet were least likely to develop type 2 diabetes, according to a report in the January 2006 issue of the journal Diabetes Care. Until now, very few large studies have directly examined the long-term effects of dietary magnesium on diabetes. Dr. Simin Liu of the Harvard Medical School and School of Public Health in Boston says, “Our studies provided some direct evidence that greater intake of dietary magnesium may have a long-term protective effect on lowering risk,” said Liu, who was involved in both studies.

The thirst of diabetes is part of the body’s response to excessive urination. The excessive urination is the body’s attempt to get rid of the extra glucose in the blood. This excessive urination causes the increased thirst. But we have to look at what is causing this level of disharmony. We have to probe deeper into layers of cause. The body needs to dump glucose because of increasing insulin resistance and that resistance is being fueled directly by magnesium deficiency, which makes toxic insults more damaging to the tissues at the same time.

When diabetics get too high blood sugars, the body creates “ketones” as a by-product of breaking down fats. These ketones cause blood acidity which causes “acidosis” of the blood, leading to Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA), This is a very dangerous condition that can lead to coma and death. It is also called “diabetic acidosis”, “ketosis”, “ketoacidosis” or “diabetic coma”. DKA is a common way for new Type 1 diabetics to be diagnosed. If they fail to seek medical advice on symptoms like urination, which is driving thirst they can die of DKA.

Oral magnesium supplements reduce erythrocyte[2] dehydration.[3] In general optimal balances of electrolytes are necessary to maintain the best possible hydration. Diabetic thirst is initiated specifically by magnesium deficiency with relative calcium excess in the cells. Even water, our most basic nutrient starts having a hard time getting into the cells with more going out through the kidneys.

Autism and Magnesium Deficiency

When dealing with autism spectrum and other neurological disorders in children it is important to know the signs of low magnesium: restless, can’t keep still, body rocking, grinding teeth, hiccups, noise sensitive, poor attention span, poor concentration, irritable, aggressive, ready to explode, easily stressed. When it comes to children today we need to assume a large magnesium deficiency for several reasons.

  1. The foods they are eating are stripped of magnesium because foods in general, as we shall see below are declining in mineral content in an alarming way.
  2. The foods many children eat are highly processed junk foods that do not provide real nutrition to the body.
  3. Because most children on the spectrum are not absorbing the minerals they need even when present in the gut. Magnesium absorption is dependent on intestinal health, which is compromised totally in leaky gut syndromes and other intestinal problems that the majority of autism syndrome disorders.
  4. Because the oral supplements doctors rely on are not easily absorbed, because they are not in the right form and because magnesium in general is not administered easily orally.

Modern medicine is supposed to help people not hurt them but with their almost total ignorance of magnesium doctors end up hurting more than they help for many of the medical interventions drive down magnesium levels when they should be driving them up. Many if not most pharmaceutical drugs drive magnesium levels into very dangerous zones and surgery done without increasing magnesium levels is much more dangerous then surgery done with.

The foundation of medical arrogance is actually medical ignorance and the only reason ignorance and arrogance rule the playing field of medicine is a greed lust for power and money. Human nature seems to be at its worst in modern medicine when it should be at its best. It is sad that people have to suffer needlessly and extraordinarily tragic that allopathic medicine has turned its back on the Hippocratic Oath and all that it means.

In the intricate dance of maintaining our health, few systems are as pivotal as the immune system. Acting as the body’s defense mechanism, it safeguards us against harmful pathogens, viruses, and bacteria, thus keeping illnesses at bay. Yet, the effectiveness of our immune response is not solely dependent on luck or genetics; rather, it is profoundly influenced by our lifestyle choices, including our dietary intake of vitamins and minerals.

The connection between immune system function and the consumption of essential vitamins and minerals is profound. These micronutrients serve as the building blocks, fueling the intricate machinery of our immune cells. Without adequate levels of these vital nutrients, our immune system may falter, leaving us vulnerable to infections and compromising our overall well-being.

In this comprehensive guide, we delve into the significance of vitamins and minerals in fortifying the immune system. From understanding the role of each nutrient to exploring rich dietary sources and lifestyle practices, let’s embark on a journey to unlock the power of these micronutrients in bolstering our body’s natural defense mechanisms.

Understanding the Immune System

Our immune system is a marvel of biological engineering, comprising a complex network of cells, tissues, and organs working harmoniously to defend the body against harmful invaders. Here’s a brief overview of how it works:

  • Innate Immune Response: This is the body’s first line of defense, providing immediate, non-specific protection against pathogens. Components of the innate immune system include physical barriers like the skin and mucous membranes, as well as immune cells like macrophages and natural killer cells, which engulf and destroy foreign invaders.
  • Adaptive Immune Response: This aspect of the immune system kicks in when the innate response isn’t enough to eliminate the threat. It involves the activation of specialized immune cells called T and B lymphocytes, which mount a targeted attack against specific pathogens. This adaptive response forms immunological memory, providing long-lasting protection against future encounters with the same pathogen.

Maintaining a balanced and robust immune response is crucial for overall health. A properly functioning immune system not only protects against infections but also plays a role in wound healing, tissue repair, and even cancer surveillance. However, an overactive immune system can lead to autoimmune disorders, where the body mistakenly attacks its own tissues, while an underactive immune system leaves us vulnerable to infections and illnesses.

By nourishing our bodies with the right combination of vitamins and minerals, we can support the intricate mechanisms of our immune system, ensuring it remains resilient and effective in safeguarding our health.

It is essential for the production and activation of white blood cells, which are key players in the body’s defense against infections. Zinc also helps regulate inflammation and supports the integrity of mucosal barriers, further enhancing immune protection.
  • Iron: Adequate iron levels are crucial for the production and function of immune cells, including T lymphocytes and macrophages. Iron is required for the synthesis of hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells, which is essential for immune cell metabolism and energy production. Without sufficient iron, the immune system may become compromised, leading to increased susceptibility to infections.
  • Selenium: As a powerful antioxidant, selenium helps protect immune cells from oxidative damage and inflammation. It also plays a key role in regulating immune responses, including the activation of immune cells and the production of antibodies. Selenium deficiency has been linked to impaired immune function and an increased risk of infections, highlighting its importance in maintaining optimal immune health.
  • Magnesium: While magnesium is often overlooked in discussions about immune function, it plays a crucial role in immune cell communication and function. Magnesium is involved in the activation of T lymphocytes and the regulation of inflammatory responses. Additionally, magnesium deficiency has been associated with impaired immune function and increased susceptibility to infections.
  • Copper: Copper is essential for the development and function of the immune system, particularly in the maturation of immune cells and the production of antibodies. Copper also acts as a cofactor for enzymes involved in antioxidant defense, helping to protect immune cells from oxidative damage. Deficiencies in copper can impair immune function and increase the risk of infections.

By ensuring adequate intake of these essential minerals, we can support the proper functioning of our immune system, enabling it to effectively defend against pathogens and maintain optimal health.

Unlocking the Power of Calcium and Magnesium for Your Health

Unlocking the Power of Calcium and Magnesium for Your Health

In our quest for optimal health, understanding the intricate dynamics of essential minerals is crucial. In this article, we will delve into the fascinating world of calcium and magnesium, exploring their distinct roles within our bodies and why achieving a harmonious balance between them is paramount.

Calcium: Building Strong Foundations

Calcium has long been recognized for its pivotal role in fortifying our bones and teeth, essential for maintaining structural integrity. But that’s not all – calcium also contributes to regulating our heartbeat and facilitating blood clotting. A consistent supply of calcium is vital for these functions, as a deficiency can lead to a myriad of health issues.

Magnesium: The Unsung Hero

On the other hand, magnesium is the unsung hero involved in over 300 metabolic reactions in our bodies. It acts as a regulator for muscle and nerve function, bolsters our immune system, and is indispensable for maintaining healthy bones. Additionally, magnesium plays a vital role in calcium absorption, making it a mineral of paramount importance for overall well-being.

However, an imbalance between these two essential minerals can be detrimental to your health. A diet excessively rich in calcium but lacking in magnesium, or vice versa, can lead to health complications. Achieving equilibrium between these two minerals is vital for maintaining a healthy and balanced body.

Speaking of maintaining balance, Kathy’s “Body Detox Online Course” draws from her 14 years of detoxing methods and anatomical insights. Her course can provide valuable knowledge on achieving and preserving the balance between essential minerals like calcium and magnesium.

The Magnesium-Calcium Connection: Unveiling the Intricacies

Have you ever wondered why individuals who diligently consume calcium supplements often find themselves suffering from hip or collar bone fractures or early-stage osteoporosis? The answer lies in the delicate balance between calcium and magnesium.

After extensive research spanning 15 years, we wish to share enlightening findings from Dr. Sircus and Dr. Caroline Dean. Their studies have shed light on a critical aspect of mineral balance in our bodies, highlighting magnesium’s significance. Calcium, while essential, can become a silent menace when magnesium levels are insufficient.

Dr. Sircus emphasizes the often-overlooked importance of magnesium, stating that it should have been promoted more than calcium. Magnesium deficiency can lead to increased levels of sodium and calcium in the heart, contributing to coronary artery calcification, a predictor of coronary heart disease events.

A Home Experiment to Illustrate the Point

Dr. Dean provides a simple kitchen experiment to illustrate how magnesium affects calcium solubility. Crushing a magnesium pill and stirring it into calcium water makes the remaining calcium more water-soluble. This same principle applies in our bodies, where insufficient magnesium can result in calcium-excess muscle spasms, fibromyalgia, arterial hardening, and even dental cavities. Kidney stones can also form when there’s too much calcium and not enough magnesium to dissolve it.

Balancing Act: Magnesium vs. Calcium

Magnesium is the key to controlling bone density, not calcium. While calcium triggers muscle contractions, magnesium counterbalances this effect by relaxing muscles. An insufficient magnesium supply can lead to muscle tension and cramps. In extreme cases, an excess of calcium can cause the heart to go into spasm, potentially leading to a heart attack. Magnesium acts as nature’s “calcium channel blocker,” preventing coronary artery spasms, arrhythmias, and high blood pressure.

The Guardian Minerals in Your Body

Imagine each cell and muscle in your body with a guardian, represented by magnesium, which ensures the appropriate amount of calcium enters each cell or muscle. If there’s insufficient calcium, magnesium steps aside to allow it to enter. If there’s enough calcium, magnesium keeps it out. It’s a dynamic and crucial process that underscores the importance of balance.

What Depletes Magnesium in the Body?

Several factors can deplete magnesium levels in the body, including fatty foods, alcohol, taking calcium without magnesium, certain medications, excessive sugar consumption, soda, coffee, and stress and anxiety.

FATTY FOODS: Reduces the absorption of Magnesium in the body.

ALCOHOL: Drains Magnesium in the body.

CALCIUM: Taken without Magnesium causes a dangerous imbalance.

MEDICATION/DRUGS: Promotes excretion of Magnesium in the body (including painkillers & diuretic medication).

SUGAR: White sugar; white bread; white rice; white pasta & white table salt destroys Magnesium in the body.

SODA/FIZZY DRINKS: Destroys Magnesium in the body.

COFFEE: Lowers the levels of Magnesium in the body.

STRESS & ANXIETY: Depletes the Magnesium in the body.

Are You Magnesium Deficient?

Magnesium deficiency often goes undiagnosed as it doesn’t always show up in blood tests. Approximately 50% of the body’s magnesium resides in the bones, while the rest is distributed inside cells, tissues, and organs. Symptoms of magnesium deficiency encompass various health issues, including tremors, anxiety, depression, and even fatal convulsions.

The Balance Between Calcium and Magnesium

In conclusion, achieving the right balance between calcium and magnesium is essential for overall health and well-being. Kathy’s “Body Detox Online Course” can provide valuable insights into maintaining this equilibrium, drawing from her 14 years of expertise in detoxing methods and anatomical knowledge.

Remember, in the intricate dance of minerals within our bodies, calcium and magnesium play distinct yet interdependent roles. Ensuring this balance is key to unlocking the full potential of these essential minerals for optimal health.
