Mineralize! It sounds like energize doesn’t it. I’m a treky from way back. I remember when they shot the assist guy on the ground team and all that was left was cube of white stuff. I think that stuff was calcium and magnesium. Anyway, I just read an aged article from Vitamin Research News about Magnesium deficiency.
South, James MA: “Magnesium: The key to health and life,” Vitamin Research News. pages 1,2,3,&10.Volume 19, Number 5, June 2005.
Or just go to www.vrp.com and go to newsletter and then to newsletter archives.
The nickel tour of the article is magnesium deficiency is related to multiple chronic degenerative conditions like: chronic muscle tension, hypertension or high blood pressure, chronic fatigue, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, ADHD, ADD, colorectal cancer, etc.
Most people are chronically deficient in magnesium so it takes 1 to 6 months of supplementation to see gradual changes and a reversal of these conditions. The recommended dosages are 4.5 mg/lb. of body weight, so for a 200lb. person you need 900mg per day. You can break that up into 1-3 doses a day. The best forms to take are magnesium citrate. If it is taken with calcium there should be a 1:1 ratio or equal amounts of calcium and magnesium for best absorption in the body. So, for about $20 you can get a months supply and a side benefit is excellent sleep and more relaxation throughout the day. This may be a great tool in the battle of degeneration and aging. So mineralize and get your magnesium and calcium.
