Magnesium deficiency often goes undiagnosed because a blood test does not show its deficiency - only 1% of the body's magnesium circulates in the blood.

Most doctors and laboratories do not determine magnesium levels with a routine blood test. Although doctors don't know it, studies show that most people are deficient in magnesium. Here we can consider Dr. Norman Shealy statement, “Every known disease is associated with magnesium deficiency” and “magnesium is the most critical mineral for maintaining the electrical stability of every cell in the body. A lack of magnesium as a nutrient can be associated with many diseases. The truth he asserts explains the causes of iatrogenic death and disease. Since magnesium deficiency is not diagnosed, patients suffer unnecessarily or receive expensive drugs to treat diseases, although the cause of the problems is only magnesium deficiency, which can be alleviated by consuming magnesium.

Unfortunately, a person has to notice their own thirst or hunger for magnesium, because allopathic medicine does not deal with it. It is more than just hunger or thirst, but that's how you can compare.

Few people are aware of the important role of magnesium in our body. Magnesium is the most important mineral in the body after oxygen, water and basic food, but this truth is not well known. Magnesium is more important than calcium, potassium and sodium and regulates them all. Millions of people suffer from magnesium deficiency every day, but they don't even know it.

In reality, there is a connection between thirst and electrolyte deficiency. I remember a person asking, “Why am I dehydrated and thirsty when I drink a lot of water? Thirst does not only mean lack of fluid, but also that the body does not have enough nutrients and electrolytes. Magnesium, potassium, bicarbonate, chloride and sodium are some of the basic electrolytes and this is also why magnesium chloride is so beneficial.

If the doctor says that "it" is all stuck in your head, it may be a problem of magnesium deficiency instead. Since magnesium testing is not done, it is a snowball effect that keeps rolling and magnesium deficiency gets worse.

Magnesium deficiency symptoms

The first signs of magnesium deficiency may be mild as most of the magnesium reserves are stored in tissues - symptoms may include leg cramps, cramps, leg pain or muscle twitching. Other early signs of magnesium deficiency may include decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and weakness. If the magnesium deficiency worsens, sensitivity, tingling, seizures, personality change, abnormal heart rhythm, spasms of heart vessels may occur.

A complete overview of magnesium deficiency was recently presented by Dr. Sidney Baker. "Magnesium deficiency basically affects all organ systems in the body. Referring to the skeletal muscles, one may feel twitches, cramps, muscle tension, muscle soreness, back pain, neck pain, tension headache and jaw joint dysfunction are symptoms of mg deficiency. You may also feel chest tightness or a special feeling as if you cannot breathe deeply. Sometimes a person sighs a lot."

The symptoms of magnesium deficiency affecting the smooth muscles are intestinal dysfunction, which manifests itself in constipation; urinary tract spasms; menstrual cramps; difficulty swallowing or feeling of a lump in the throat - these symptoms are especially manifested when eating sugar; photophobia, especially when exposed to bright light with an eye disease; high sensitivity to noise due to the tension of the ossicular muscle in the middle ear.

Other symptoms and signs of magnesium deficiency can be central nervous system disorders such as insomnia, anxiety, hyperactivity, restlessness and constant need to move, panic disorders. Disorders of the peripheral nervous system such as numbness, tingling, twitching, vibration.

Cardiovascular symptoms or signs include palpitations, irregular heart rhythms, and heart pain (angina) due to spasm of blood vessels in the heart, high blood pressure, and mitral valve prolapse. Not all of these symptoms are necessarily due to magnesium deficiency, but many of them often occur with it. For example, people with mitral valve prolapse also often have palpitations, anxiety, panic attacks, and premenstrual syndrome. Magnesium deficient people seem tense. Other common features are salt cravings, carbohydrate cravings and intolerances, especially chocolate intolerance, and breast tenderness.

Magnesium is needed by every cell of the body, including brain cells, and this mineral is the most important because it participates in the work of hundreds of enzyme systems and the work of cell metabolism, in the same way it is primary in protein synthesis, the use of fats and carbohydrates. Magnesium is necessary for the production of specific cleaning enzymes and for the production of energy for cell cleaning. Magnesium deficiency can affect all body systems.

Like water, we need magnesium every day. If magnesium is present in the water, life and health are strong.

One of the main reasons why doctors write millions of prescriptions for sedatives is nervousness, irritability and tremors, which are actually caused by poor nutrition and magnesium deficiency. People with even a slight deficiency of magnesium are irritable, nervous (nervous plexus), sensitive to noise, very excited, fearful and irritable. If the deficit is more severe and prolonged, twitching, tremors, irregular heart rate, insomnia, muscle weakness, discontinuity, and leg and foot cramps may develop.

In very acute magnesium deficiency, the brain is also affected. Thinking is disturbed, the person is confused, there is disorientation up to depression. A person sees horrible visions, which disappear when magnesium is taken. In the case of magnesium deficiency, a person loses a lot of calcium through urine, the lack of this nutrient is directly related to dental caries, bone development, osteoporosis and slow fracture healing. Together with vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), magnesium helps reduce and dissolve calcium phosphate kidney stones.

Magnesium deficiency may be associated with insulin resistance. Multiple sclerosis symptoms such as muscle spasms, weakness, twitching, muscle atrophy, bladder incontinence, eye twitching, hair loss, and bone loss are also signs of magnesium deficiency. Epilepsy is also linked to magnesium deficiency.

Here is another short list of early magnesium deficiency symptoms:

1. Physical and mental fatigue
2. Persistent twitching under the eyes
3. Tension in the withers, shoulders and neck
4. Headaches
5. Premenstrual fluid retention and/or breast tenderness

Possible signs of magnesium deficiency are:

• Low energy
• Tiredness
• Powerlessness
• Confusion
• Nervousness
• Irritability
• Seizures and tantrums
• Poor digestion
• PMS and hormonal imbalance
• Inability to sleep
• Muscle tension, cramps
• Calcification of organs
• Weak bones
• Abnormal heart rhythm

In severe magnesium deficiency, there is a low level of calcium in the blood (hypocalcemia). Magnesium deficiency is also associated with low levels of potassium in the blood (hypokalemia). The level of magnesium decreases at night, therefore there is poor REM sleep (eyes move quickly during sleep), the person cannot get a good night's sleep.

Headaches, blurred vision, mouth ulcers, fatigue and anxiety are also early signs of magnesium deficiency.

We hear how heart disease is number one in the world and that high blood pressure is the so-called silent killer, the lives of citizens and families are disrupted because they have diabetes, Alzheimer's disease and many other chronic diseases.

Symptoms of severe magnesium deficiency are:

1. Intense thirst
2. Extreme hunger
3. Frequent urination
4. Sores and scratches heal slowly
5. The skin is dry and itchy
6. Unexplained weight loss
7. Blurred vision that changes daily
8. Unusual tiredness and sleepiness
9. Tingling or numbness in the legs and arms
10. Frequent or recurring fungal infections of the skin, gums, bladder and vagina

Aren't these signs of diabetes?

Many people already have diabetes for 5 years before severe symptoms appear. By that time, many have already developed eye, kidney, gum or nerve damage because the cells are resistant to insulin due to magnesium deficiency.

Magnesium deficiency is synonymous with diabetes and the root cause of many, if not all, cardiovascular diseases.

Diabetics need more magnesium, they also lose magnesium more than other people. Based on research in both men and women published in the January 2006 issue of Diabetes Care, those who consumed magnesium did not develop diabetes. To date, very few studies have directly observed the relationship between long-term magnesium intake and diabetes. Dr. Simin Liu of Harvard Medical School and the School of Public Health in Boston reports that research from these schools found evidence that higher magnesium intake can reduce the risk of diabetes.

The body reacts to diabetes with frequent urination. The body tries to get rid of excess blood sugar. Excessive urination causes thirst. We need to understand what causes such disharmony. We need to find the root cause. The body has to excrete glucose as insulin resistance increases and this in turn is directly caused by a lack of magnesium, which causes the body to be toxic and tissues to be damaged.

When a diabetic has too much blood sugar, the body starts producing ketones, which are a byproduct of breaking down body fat. This in turn creates acidity in the blood, which manifests as blood acidosis, which in turn leads to diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Such a condition is very dangerous and can lead to coma and death. This condition is also called “diabetic acidosis”, “ketoacidosis” or “diabetic coma”. DKA is a common new diagnosis of type 1 diabetes. If the patient does not seek help, he may die from DKA.

Oral magnesium reduces red blood cell dehydration. Thus, optimal electrolyte balance is required to maintain adequate hydration. Diabetic thirst is caused precisely by a lack of magnesium, which is accompanied by the pumping out of calcium from the cell. Even water cannot bring enough calcium to the cell if more is excreted through the kidneys.

Autism and magnesium deficiency

When dealing with autism and other neurological disorders, it is important to know the signs of low magnesium levels, which are restlessness, inability to sleep peacefully, body rocking, teeth grinding, hiccups, noise sensitivity, difficulty concentrating, attention deficits, irritability, aggressiveness, explosiveness, stress intolerance. A very widespread magnesium deficiency can be assumed in today's children. These reasons are:

1. The food that children eat is very low in magnesium because processed food is empty of nutrients,
2. Many children eat junk food that does not cover the needs of the child's body,
3. The digestive tract of many children cannot absorb the necessary nutrients. In order to absorb magnesium, a person must have a healthy gut, to compensate for this there is a complete leaky gut syndrome and also other gut problems that are also autism syndromes.
4. Because many dietary supplements prescribed by doctors are not well absorbed because magnesium is generally not easily absorbed orally.

Modern medicine is supposed to help people and not hurt them, but due to the almost complete ignorance of magnesium, many people are doing more harm than good in medical procedures, and instead of raising magnesium levels, they keep falling even lower. Many if not all pharmaceutical drugs lower magnesium levels to very dangerous levels. Any surgical procedure requires extra magnesium. Unfortunately, medical ignorance is associated with power and money. With the possibilities of modern medicine, we have more and more frail people suffering for no reason, and it is a great shame that allopathic medicine has turned against the Hippocratic Oath and all that it stands for.
