Guest guest Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 I am having problems with magnesium depletion not yet documented deficiency. I don't have high copper levels. I am pre diabetic and fluffy. Supplementing with 60 mg a day is not enough so right now i am taking 160 mg to see if that is enough verses the 200 mg i was taking before. When I am low I have hyper irritability with husband running for cover, muscle weakness, and night leg cramps. There is no reason I can explain this at this time. My doctor is at a loss also. Any ideas or suggestions. Jackie Chase RD Dillingham AK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Not a high K diet but certainly a low salt diet. Why would a low salt diet impact mag.
