Re: Cause Of Death Sandy and all re magnesium

[Guest guest]

Sandy- or anyone

Any idea how much Mag Cheny says to use? Or how much in general, ie w.out

Cheny?

For now shots are not an option for me.

Thanks, Adrienne

Hi Adrienne and Everyone,

Regarding how much magnesium glycinate Dr. Cheney recommends, I found

the

answer in info I had printed a while back from Carol Sieverling's

support group website at " virtualhometown.com/dfwcfids. " He suggests 200

to 500mg

a day of mag gly. unless you experience diarrhea, then adjust dosage as

needed. (Thanks, Carol, and your group for all the helpful info.)

I do believe the brand makes a big difference. As I mentioned in my

last

post, I have been taking 800mg which some MD/Nutritionists recommend but

I just received my order from SunRay which claims to use Dr. Cheney

recommended products. Just this week I began taking Pure Encapsulations

mag gly and I'm going to cut back to 500mg and see how it goes.

Another symptom of deficient magnesium that I get is twitching muscles,

especially my eyelid.

I mentioned the book, STAYING HEALTHY WITH NUTRITION, in my last post.

In that book, Dr. Haas states that " calcium and magnesium are both

alkaline minerals, so they are not taken with or after meals, as they

can

reduce stomach acid as well as be absorbed poorly when taken with

food....

take them on an empty stomach between meals. " I've read this same

recommendation in many other articles and books. I've also read that

taking them at bedtime with vitamin D can help with sleep.

Best Wishes, Sandy
