Magnesium: An essential mineral. The chief
function of magnesium is to activate certain enzymes, especially
those related to carbohydrate metabolism. Another role is to
maintain the electrical potential across nerve and muscle
membranes. It is essential for proper heartbeat and nerve
transmission. DID YOU KNOW?
Magnesium is more important than calcium, potassium or
sodium as it is required to regulate them. Not many people are
aware of the great roll magnesium plays in the proper
functioning of the body. After oxygen, water, and basic food
magnesium may be the most important element needed by the body.
It is so vitally important, yet nearly completely ignored.
Magnesium activates over 300 different biochemical reactions for
the body to function properly thus making it a very important
mineral for the body. Everyone knows the serious consequences
from the lack of oxygen, water and food, but very few realize
the consequences of magnesium deficiency.
What are magnesium deficiency symptoms?
Many people suffer daily with Muscle Cramps, Anxiety, Spasms,
Fatigue, Headaches, Irritability, Sleep-Disorders, Low Energy,
Body-Tension. Other conditions are Backaches, Heart-Disorders,
PMS, Muscle Tension, Kidney Stones, Osteoporosis, Depression,
Irregular-Heartbeat, Insomnia and others too numerous too
mention. 90-95% of the population is deficient in magnesium.
Magnesium is required for protein synthesis, contractility of
muscles, excitability of nerves and as a co-factor in a plethroa
of enzyme functions. Proper calcium and magnesium consumption
supports feeling younger and weight loss. The human body needs
water-soluble magnesium in conjuction with calcium. If the level
of magnesium is not maintained the excess calcium may become a
toxin and lead to the

magnesium deficiency.

Becoming an Expert!
If you continue to read on you will become an expert on how to
handle your own magnesium deficiency, that strikes most of us
unknowingly. This information is vital for everybody to know and
it may change your life as it has changed the lives of many
others. The fact is many of us suffer for months and years from
chronic conditions, that no one seems to detect the source of
(not even the so-called experts). Only a few lucky ones realize
that the true source of these conditions is due primarily to a
magnesium deficiency. Many of the conditions listed are caused
primarily by magnesium deficiency and for many other conditions
magnesium deficiency is a major contributing factor. Perhaps
this information will bring new hope to those who have grown
hopeless about improving their condition.
To understand magnesium importance consider that 90-95% of
the population is deficient, and many thought that regular
magnesium supplements will fix this deficiency. But if the
magnesium supplement is not water soluble or available in ionic
form it will literally pass through the digestive track with
very little benefit to the body. For minerals to be absorbed
into the body they must be available in ionic form. The name
says it all " Ionic Liquid Magnesium" which is how this
magnesium supplement is delivered to you. Repeating again,
magnesium is the most important mineral in the body
because it activates over 300 processes in the body. These
functions are energy production, muscle function, digestion,
creation of new cells, bone formation, relaxation of muscles,
the functioning of your heart, kidneys, the activation of B
vitamins, adrenals, brain and nervous system. Deficiency of
magnesium, to any extent, will interfere with any of these
factors.
If you run low on magnesium you can see how many things can
go wrong. Dozens of processes are disturbed and many nutrients
and minerals can not function properly and the body goes out of
balance.

Magnesium Depletion, what causes it?
Learn well the following Magnesium Depletors and avoid them
as much as possible. These factors dramatically deplete your
body's magnesium storage and make it necessary for greater
consumption of magnesium: coffee, sugar, mental stress, alcohol,
cola type soda, high sodium diet, tobacco, medical drugs of all
types, high perspiration, low thyroid, diabetes, diuretics,
chronic pain, a high carbohydrate diet, a high calcium diet (yes
too much calcium can be a problem).
Back
The Calcium Problem
Excess calcium DEPLETES magnesium from the body and as a result
brings about symptoms of magnesium deficiency. It is not
important how much magnesium you take but how much is left in
the body. Remember calcium and magnesium need to be in
correct proportions, otherwise calcium goes from being a
nutrient into a pollutant. The MagICal supplement, was
developed with this is mind and is synergistically balanced with
calcium and magnesium to prevent calcium pollution in the body.
When magnesium is deficient in the body excess calcium can cause
heart disease, arthritis, senility, calcification of organs and
tissues that eventually degenerate. Thus excess calcium can
become a real problem, while excess magnesium is not any
concern. Magnesium does not build up in the body but the excess
is eliminated while excess calcium builds up.

Symptoms of
magnesium deficiency.
FATIGUE & LOW ENERGY
Magnesium has a key role in the energy process within each cell,
and our overall energy level. Energy production is inhibited,
with inadequate amounts of magnesium, with the eventual outcome
being fatigue and weakness. Magnesium is essential to regulating
potassium levels and functioning of the adrenal glands which are
both important to maintaining high energy levels.
NERVOUSNESS & INSOMNIA
Deficiency in magnesium can cause insomnia, and wake us up with
muscle spasms, cramps, tension and feeling uncomfortable. The
proper functioning of the nervous system requires magnesium and
without sufficient quantity the nerve cells cannot give or
receive messages and tend to become excitable and highly
reactive. Noises will seem excessively loud and the person will
jump at sudden sound and be generally nervous and on edge. Light
can appear to be too bright and the person can become highly
sensitive and nervous.
PMS & OSTEOPOROSIS
Instant relief can be obtained by taking a magnesium drink
because PMS is mostly a magnesium deficiency and excess calcium.
When it comes to OSTEOPOROSIS, magnesium is crucial in
regulating bone density, as it is magnesium which allows calcium
to assimilate. Calcium alone is potentially harmful.
THE HEART CONNECTION
Without sufficient magnesium you would actually die as your
heart will stop beating and the doctors will call it "a heart
attack". Thus it is critical to have the proper levels of
magnesium in the body. Early signs of terminal extinction are
unusual changes in heart rates (beats), angina pain, collapsing
from exhaustion after heavy physical exercise or sports related
activities. With low magnesium the heart muscle develops a spasm
or cramp and stops beating because there is insufficient
magnesium to relax the heart ready for the next contraction.
HEADACHES, DIABETES, HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE & Misc.
Asthma, headaches, migraines, seizures, depression, fibromyalgia,
anxiety, ADD, arthritis and kidney stones get worse when
sufficient magnesium is not consumed. Drink some liquid
magnesium and they will begin to improve some conditions
instantly and others need time. Magnesium has been found to
improve insulin's response to dietary sugar and improve the
action of insulin in regulating blood sugar levels. Magnesium is
needed by those with high blood pressure and it proved to be
vital and highly effective in many cases.

Ladies, What about cellulite?
According to Dr. Susan Lark, M.D. (see www.drlark.com for
information) in her newsletter, "New Choices, the Chemistry of
Weight Loss, Summer 2001." Magnesium supplementation is critical
for getting rid of cellulite. "Many of the weight problems I
have seen can be cured with magnesium. A British researcher
found that 80% of fatigue patients lack magnesium. You need
400mgs a day to get every cell in your body cranking out energy,
but most women get only half that. I've seen many weight
problems vanish with magnesium. This is because it stops
cortisol production, which makes you big in the belly, and
because it helps your body convert fatty acids into the
anti-inflammatory prostaglandins. Too little magnesium and you
are likely to have an inflamed, bloated body with lots of
cellulite. Adjust the chemical balance and I've seen the
inflammation disappear and women lose up to 10 pounds in a
single week."
Cellulite Gone an all natural
treatment that works.
What is cellulite?
It is the name given to irregular fatty deposits that appear as
dimpled skin (orange peel) around womens buttocks and thighs.
Cellulite begins to form during puberty but is not always
noticeable on younger women because their skin is more supple.
Some men may also experience cellulite.
Cellulite Gone is a special blend of Ionic Magnesium
and proprietary ingredients that work at the cell level to
metabolize the fatty tissue.
- With Cellulite Gone you have!
- Non surgical alternative to liposuction.
- Say good-bye to surgery and strict diets.
- Naturally derived formula contains no drugs.
- 100% safe.
- Stomachs
- Hips
- Buttocks
- Thighs

Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate!
Did you know chocolate cravings are often due to a need for
magnesium. Magnesium is a mineral that is lost when under
stress, such as just before menstruation. Women who can't
control their weight have found it easier to do so when they can
nix their chocolate cravings. Increase your magnesium
decrease your chocolate cravings. According to Hans Nieper,
M.D., from his extensive research with compromised patients,
"Magnesium improves the activity of white, granulocytic blood
cells and increases the production of immune-defensive
substances such as antibodies and complements (factors that
activate specific antibodies)." Doctor Nieper is an expert in
cancer therapy and says that there is a correlation between high
levels of magnesium and health Vs low levels of magnesium an
illness. back
What is the big deal about ionic form?
Much has been made about taking mineral supplements. Then there
is the idea that all things we take should be in natural form.
When taking a mineral supplement such as magnesium aren't we
trying to get magnesium into our bodies? Obviously you would
have to say yes. The next question that should be asked is, if
magnesium is a mineral that comes from the earth or sea, is
there a difference in the magnesium? There is no difference in
the magnesium ion. There is only one type of magnesium and that
is the metal, magnesium. Of course we are talking about the
magnesium which the body uses. So, the question is not, is it
organic or inorganic because there is only one type of magnesium
and that is the metal. But the question should be, does it get
absorbed or not get absorbed. This is where the ionic form comes
in.
Medical studies done at the Creighton University Medical School
in Omaha, Nebraska prove that magnesium and calcium are absorbed
in ionic form not in organic or non-organic form. The body has
what are called ion channels and that is how the body utilizes
magnesium and calcium. As a matter of fact, magnesium is a
natural calcium channel blocker to protect the body from getting
too much calcium (too much calcium can cause cellular death).
Calcium is also absorbed in the body in ionic form and that too
was proven at Creighton Medical School. Thus the argument about
taking certain minerals is, Firstly, we need them and
lots of them, and Secondly, we need the kind of minerals
that get absorbed into the cells not the ones that are swallowed
and are passed through into the stool. Liquid Ionic Magnesium is
in the form every body will be able to absorb and being in Ionic
form means there is a much higher probability it will get
absorbed when taken orally. Absorption is the key word and ionic
is the key word associating itself to absorption, especially in
the case of magnesium. Maybe the reasons most of the people
who are taking minerals don't see changes as they expect are
because they are not getting what they pay for.
With Ionic Liquid Magnesium, absorption is
high because this is the form that the body recognizes
and utilizes. Many magnesium products on the market are very
difficult to assimilate because they are in the wrong form to be
effectively absorbed by the body as they pass through the
stomach and are eliminated before the nutritional value is
utilized.

The SOLUTION
The solution is to take magnesium in a form where it is
completely dissolved in water. In this ionic form the magnesium
assimilates into the body fast producing almost instant relief.
"Ionic Liquid Magnesium" is a product which was developed
especially for that reason. Ionic Liquid Magnesium is a product
that provides magnesium in an ionic solution in water which
provides a high assimilable, effective, fast acting supplement.
Just measure the serving size into a glass of water and drink.
