Taking Magnesium Taurate has completely transformed my life. No more ; Palpatations, High Blood Pressure, Insomnia, Bradycardia, Breathlessness and Skin problems. I hope this helps someone. Thanks Dr Berg.
May I ask, how long did you take magnesium before it helped your insomnia? I've just started taking it as I suffer from very bad insomnia, muscle pain etc. Thanks.
@@privateprivate2421 I take Magnesium Glycinate too but it does not help me sleep and I still have lots of pain! Can you please tell me what brand you are using and how much mg you take per day? Thankyou in advance!
This describes my life. Always fighting anger, working twice as hard to make good grades, shaky hands, anxiety, brain fog, etc, etc. it got better in my mid 20’s when I started weight training and taking vitamins but still not great. Now I take a specific dose of magnesium and I feel great. My son is now supplementing as well. His grades, mood, and number of friends is up. :)
May I ask what form of magnesium you have been taking ? I am wondering if 12 year old is okay to take mag? Both of my sons have ADHD and I am thinking probably they need to take mag to help them focus. Thanks .
Dr Berg...I can not thank you enough for these videos. My health has improved so much since I began watching them and gaining an understanding of how the body works and the symptoms and fixes of some pretty common ailments. I have lost 15 lbs, been able to get off the metformin, thyroid and one of the blood pressure meds I was on. You are literally a life saver! I look forward to your videos and just honestly can't thank you enough. God bless you and yours!
I Just don’t agree on this ketogenic diet for the long term health. Can’t be healthy with too much fat and protein. A vegetarian or careful vegan diet produces better long term health. I’m a osteopath and Naturopath. Most long lived humans are vegan. Cancer has been directly linked to eating animal products now of Diary, Eggs, cheese, meat fish and poultry. Look up the ‘China study’ by Dr T Colin’s pHD Cornell university USA.
@@malenyluna5275 people also suggest soaking your body in a tub filled with warm water and some Epsom salt or better absorped -Magnesium Chloride , I am yet to try it but have read that transdermal absorption is better since u bypass the GI tract
Just ordered triple mag. I was diagnosed with mag deficiency. I was suffering with shortness of breath,chest pains, muscle spasm . However doctors told me it's not related. They need to watch this video.
Dr Berg, you are my hero ! I'm buying some of your wheat grass, can't wait to drink it .... You're one of the very few people I trust in the medical profession.
With I'd learned this before accepting antidepressants for a twenty year nightmare of physical and mental health issues. Magnesium has changed my life. No more pharmafuckyouup,pills anymore
Metafolic acid too...NOT synthetic folic acid. Deplin (one of the original antidepressants is literally metafolic acid). If you have the clotting disorder MTHFR, it’s critical you use metafolic acid and magnesium. Magnesium - the master mineral ALL cells need to properly perform.
I'm just picked up a prescription today from a mental health clinician nurse and the side effects of diagnosis of death he must be forging my documents in his office what kind of mental illness would you need to take a pill for that causes death,for a long list of side effects the cause and action also described that it the prescription is for 13-year-olds and older
I'm being absolutely honest.. This opened my eyes! I'm a bodybuilder, and i have recently went through a tough transformation.. I weighed 130 kg (fat) and last year lost 43 kg in total.. Now im working on improving my muscle and strength and im experiencing so many difficulties.. I have tendon issue, high blood pressure, loss of sleep, muscle cramps and bad recovery, and a couple weeks ago a kidney stone started to form... After i watched you video it made me think.. I stayed up all night to research and did some tests, and after consulting a physician and a licensed nutritionist and told them my take on my case they both agreed.. Im getting my magnesium now and never ever gona forget! Thanks allot doc ❤️
Aimee Miles I totally agree. I think a poor diet for myself and so many others could be the root cause of so many physical and mental health issues as children
Oh my goodness...I had passed a kidney stone a year ago. Also, when he said twitching on the nerve and pointed to his eye, this struck a chord with me. I had so many eyelid twitches for about 2 or 3 weeks until eventually I had a massive panic attack, palpitations, anxiety, exhaustion, sleep problems, brain fog, inability to concentrate, severe muscle cramps and knots all up and down my back, gastritis etc etc a looooong list going on for nearly a month now. I have been taking magnesium for 3 days and have already seen a huge improvement in being calm, more energised, body aches are going away.... Amazing!
You are saving my life one video at a time! Years of doctors and medical bills and no one has ever mentioned any of this! Or insulin resistance. Thank you so much!! I’m down 62 pounds and have more energy than I’ve had in years. The constant heart burn is getting better. Well, so many issues are getting better!!!
Dr. Berg doesn't know how much we appreciate this simple very informative video. We need more videos like this, to tell us exacly what to do when we are feeling a certain way. Most videos explain things in a round about way, which leaves us wondering what we have and what to do about it. This video gets right to it. PRICELESS. God bless Dr. Berg for uploading this video. Lets let him know how much we love his videos, so he can make more "to the point" videos like this.
Also increase you water intake. Most headaches are specifically related to dehydration. There are 6 levels of deydration which is not commonly known. Once you reach stage four you are in the danger zone because you have lost your thirst sensor & now have an aversion to water (do not desire or even like the taste of water). Increase your consumption of water slowly & you will likely see a difference in your headaches.
I have sinus pains and temple headache. even my jaw and gums hurt atm... just realized my supplements only contained 30 or so mg per pill. was taking only 1 or 2 per day, hope this solves it as i regularly eat eggs.
@@Sharrrowkyn drink lots of water that really is a key and I can bounce for it because of my own experience with migraine headaches I'm 70 years old I've had them since I was 20 and from age 34 I think I said 35 in another comment but from age 34 to 55 all the way up to 60 really well up to 55 I had them every day and then from there I still have them pretty frequently and now I just have them once in awhile and it's because over the last 15 to 17 18 years something like that I've been drinking ton of water I mean the normal amount and sometimes more than the number of amount per day so and my headaches are definitely improved considerably please drink lots of water that will help you
I wound up in the hospital with horrible insomnia and stress and anxiety. Thought I had severe sleep apnea and it was panic attack symptoms making me feel like my breathing had stopped.Not one word was spoken about Magnesium. Instead they put me on Lexapro, which is an anti-anxiety medication and I had a horrible reaction to it. It was awful. I only took 2 doses of it and got off of it immediately ! So sad that so many doctors think Psychiatric drugs with crippling side effects are the answer to everything.
@@indaymemeh2426 I only took two doses of Lexapro and that was enough for me. They gave me my first dose when they released me from the hospital, and then the next day I took the second dose, and later went to make a pot of coffee to get the day started, and started crying like a baby for no reason at all. I got in my car, went to the emergency room and told them to get me off of this crap or i am going to go home and just do it myself. So they gave me an I.V. to help flush it out of my system, and since I had only had 2 doses, it was no problem getting off of it.NEVER AGAIN !
@@richardbuse228 felt bad for that 😔 are you taking magnesium after that? For my own experience i went to the clinic and the doctor prescribed me a ecseclopram, i took it only 1 day, until i felt so nad in my brain😔had a ringing in the ears its keeps me depressed, untill now 😩 i want to try magnesium glycinate i hope it will heal right away
I've started taking magnesium and feel less tired and less muscle cramps. Just avoid magnesium oxide, it's bad for your stomach. A better one to take is magnesium malate.
Jasmine thank you for that information because I I'm going to take it for myself but I really think my brother needs to take it and he won't drink any crazy drink like wheatgrass but he will take a supplement so I'll be looking that up and I appreciate that I know you didn't even know if anybody would read your comment but I just did and thanks 😇❤️🌹
Magnesium chloride is much much more affective and long term than magnesium sulphate (epsom salts). Please look into magnesium oil that you spray on. Really cheap to make yourself from the flakes (amazon!). If it stings, just dilute it in more water. When you are deficient, it can sting/itch when you start using it since it's being drawn through your skin. You can also have detox symptoms since magnesium helps in detox. Don't over do it until you are use to it, but it is absolutely incredible. It took about 3 weeks to gradually go from debilitating anxiety with moodyness, to calm and focused.
How do I make Epsom salt oil? Magnesium oil? I believe my husband is deficient and he refuses to eat leafy greens. He's on high bp meds, antidepressants and antacids! Everything doc said is bad! Advice please :)
Virginia Webb Just buy the oil, it is cheap enough. Amazon or Iherb for example. Also I heard somewhere, can't remember, I probably would avoid putting salts in boiling water or magnesium flakes, I am pretty sure it kills, or drastically reduces the benefits.
After years of disabling migraine headaches, my friend's doctor told me it was probably caused by magnesium deficiency. I started taking it that day & never had another migraine. No doctor before ever had a suggestion for help...only pain meds which I would not take.
How much do you take every day of elemental magnesium please? I am disabled with chronic illnesses/pain but also have 2-4 days of severe migraine per week.
@Lovely, I stopped taking a multivitamin a few years ago because they announced on the news that they could kill older women! Go figure! You don't know what to believe anymore!
I am sure you have low onion gap you have more negative ions you need positive ions like magnesium and calcium it have good muscles functions and have good balance when you stand or walk
linda handley . Dr. Berg always tells us to take food based natural vitamin supplements, not synthetic vitamins. Synthetic vitamins can be « dangerous » because they don’t really work so well, so you think that your taking vitamins while really you aren’t. For instance : magnesium oxide is almost totally useless. Have a good day.
@@1963pipo Magnesium Oxide is the worst form. Magnesium Chloride is the most bioavailable & safest & is Transdermal (absorbed through the skin) & bypasses the digestive track to take in large amounts without the normal diarrhea effect that oxide, citrate, sulfate, glycinate, & other digestion dependable forms can cause.
You saved my life, was addimited coz my heart was pausing and had blood pressure...I was worried coz i train 5 times a week and eat clean and in my 30's...watched this ....bought omega3...vitamin D and magnesium...went back to the hospital they found my blood pressure was normal and my heart was normal too...God bless
Mr. S side effects? Gas. Lots of it. So if you can take the smallest dosage and go from there. Otherwise you will probably sleep bad because of the farting. I'm not even joking, I've taken magnesium for over a year now because of my thyroid issues.
Gabriela Velasco I take 200 ml in the morning and 200. ml in the night and I don’t have any kind of of problems. Look for Blue green algae ,organic plant based nutrients from Klamath Lake ,60 capsules dietary supplement. Only cost $ 15.00 dollars in Amazon . I heard a nutritionist doctor that is good for people with thyroid problem.
Mark Dawson yes because it replaces your natural serotonin w some other chemical component within itself, making your own actual serotonin "leave", since it's been "replaced"... essentially. you can look this stuff up. i'm the biggest chocoholic ever made.. and i can't have it anymore from the high oxalate levels my body can't handle anymore without a headache, and for the serotonin explanation i said above. trust me outside those two things i would literally happily drown myself in chocolate. you just need a serotonin booster if you eat a lot of it is all. take amino acid l tryptophan for a good serotonin boost and you should balance out. hope that helps
Dr. Berg thank you. You're doing a great service for people like myself who don't find the answers in Pharma based "health" care. Doctores should leartn more about these things and diet instead. Thanks again.
dr. Eric, you are such a blessing! Thank you so much for caring in a field where so many are concerned about money you are truly concerned about people. Thank you for being such a blessing to us!
@@henryhendrika5689 Its called ionic magnesium, it's in liquid form, by a company called Good State. It doesnt taste great but she only has enough to fill the bottom of the cap daily, with juice. Though she could have more less often. Boswellia Serrata (frankincense) capsules are also amazing for asthma etc. These are not needed after the problem goes away but continue with the magnesium. I'd also recommend vit D3 at 5000 to 10000 units a day, together with zinc and vit C (C at 1000mg to 2000mg). Best wishes.
@@Mt-ue9qz If someone with asthma has not tried boosting their magnesium level then it is worth trying. Asthma kills people. I am trying to offer a suggestion with my own experience with a safe substance that everyone needs.
@@leighwalton8190 I understand but so many people take information incorrectly so I just wanted to point out that magnesium isn’t a sure cure. Too many non-thinkers out there these days.
In high school I had lots of heart issues like-fluttery, skipped beats, palpitations, you name it. Esp after being active!! I was put on a monitor and told I’d grow out of it (of course)...In college I couldn’t sleep, so my mom told me about Magnesium for nerve & muscle function (important!) and the sleep AND heart issue stopped within a couple weeks!! Never knew it was Magnesium. Wow. Thank you for your videos!!!
The night cramps and thoughts of suicide have all been alleviated thanks to the magnesium supplement that I found at GNC. I now wonder if all suicidal man or people for that matter were just magnesium deficient and could've just been saved if their doctors had done their blood work. I only figured out I was magnesium deficient listening to Joe Rogan podcast, my doctor never suggested getting my blood work done. Thank God for Joe Rogan.
I can relate! It really opens your eyes once you realize our negative thoughts and feelings are so often because we're physically sick. After using magnesoum oil for about 3 weeks, even really negative things didn't ruin me. If you haven't used it in a spray form, you might want to look into it. So great you were able to help yourself! I really know what it's like!
Oo.. very good.explanation Doc about Mg... Thank you so much.. You seem you are able to integrate Mg biochemical function holistically in our body as a complex network & interaction. Congrats Dr. Berg... .
I would like to add that consuming magnesium daily has stopped a very bad edema problem (excessive swelling of feet and ankles) that I lived with for years. It is almost magical how it disappeared after only ingesting the mineral daily for around 10 days. Leg cramps were mentioned by the kind doctor and those too have disappeared along with all those fitful nights of non-sleep. I cannot be more pleased with the results. Better sleep and better mood all around. I even went to specialists and was always just told to drink more water, move more, keep feet elevated, which I tried. Because of its low cost, I would simply encourage to try it for 2 weeks and feel the difference.
I had been taking a magnesium citrate supplement to alleviate nighttime leg cramps but they were still awful. I went to the doctor last week and was diagnosed with diabetes. She advised me to stop taking my calcium supplement due to the possible buildup of plaque in the heart. We discussed my magnesium supplement and agreed I should switch to a different form of magnesium (I already had chelated magnesium on hand so I’m now taking that) and she recommended I double my dosage and take 2000 IUs of D3. No more nighttime leg cramps! Not even a hint of a foot cramp, which were always precursors to leg cramps. My doctor’s advice is almost the same as yours. Thank you for what you’re doing for others!
B M , sun sitting is a little difficult when I live in Minnesota. I do spend a lot of time outside in the summer. I’ll keep your advice in mind though. Thanks.
Actually, your drink will raise the acidity of your stomach and make the magnesium better absorbed. Drink first, then take the magnesium supplement a few minutes after.
I take a liquid magnesium and results in just a week were simply amazing! From teeth to body temperature and all in between. Helped with nuerapthy and so so much more.
Am too late to follow you Dr., But still am happy that am learning a lot from you. Thank you and stay blessed always. People like you is going to change the world.
My " man" almost died from lack of magnesium. The doctor said she couldn't wait to give the magnesium drip intravenous ,so she had to start the drip while they tried to get him in the CT or MR machine. He shaked and later they told me, it was so close he didn't die that day, because he needed magnesium. He was sick with cancer, but still, I never knew magnesium was so important it could kill someone and that it was given intravenous alone. I have a surgeon dad ,but I don't think doctors learn so much about vitamins and foods stuff in medical school. I have struggled with liver disease, my brother kidney disease, my " man " cancer and food wasn't anything the doctors said anything about. My brother got a few advice, but it turned out that his advice wasn't right when he four years after starting dialysis finally after we asked for advice got a neutrition person to write up what to eat and not. Start to understand how important food and neutrition is for everything to work together as it should.
Your short lessons on health matters are a special and most generous benefit to the public. You have shown me very important things about my body’s function that no one else ever has done for me!
I KNOW I AM MAGNESIUM AND POTASSIUM DEFICIENT BUT I AM ON A FIXED INCOME AND PROBABLY CAN'T AFFORD TO GET IT RIGHT BUT I AM SHARING YOUR INFO WITH OTHERS TO GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO THRIVE AND LIVE THE HEALTHIEST LIFE THEY CAN. AT 70 IT DOESN'T MATTER THAT MUCH.
After taking Magnesium for two weeks, blood pressure went down, I can exercise daily, no more on medication for blood pressure and no more palpitations! New life, thank you Doc! Also your Electrolyte Power (Raspberry & Lemon) taste so delicious, my only drink now!
I'm looking to replace the Gatorade that my husband takes (cancer patient) with something that will replace the electrolytes he loses after activity. Would the Electrolyte Power/Powder? be something to try?
@@trishawhite3444 Yes, it is a great idea, you husband is a lucky man for having you taking care of him, Gatorade it’s full of sugar! I get my magnesium and potassium from Dr. Berg’s Electrolyte Power, no sugar he uses stevia, my favorite flavor is Raspberry and Lemon, 1 scoop on 24 oz of water or 16 oz depending on how much water you need, I do drink 6 cups of water a day(24 + 24 oz) so I do use 2 scoops a day, it gives me 240 mg of magnesium, and 2000 mg of potassium a day and I feel great. I do order my from Amazon, it’s easy for me! I wish the best for you and your husband!
Thank you Dr. Berg! I watch your videos daily now! I’m so happy I stumbled upon one of your videos. You honestly do get right to the point and have a soothing voice as you explain! I just watched your video on magnesium deficiency. I knew about magnesium and took it daily. I ran out of my supply and seriously forgot to purchase again. I started feeling these weird symptoms again, heart palpitations, anxiety, etc.... then I saw your video and realized this was it !! Thank you so much! You’re a God Send!! 🙏🏻
Dr. Berg, I just want to say THANK YOU! There´s so much valuable information that you share with us! You´ve been of great help to me; to help my family, myself and my clients. And those videos with your lovely wife, Karen! THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
I have had acid reflux problems since age 25. The problem went away on its own during a 1 year-long diet change to the hallelujah diet which I did about 20 years ago, but just one year. Over the years since, back on the standard american diet (SAD) the reflux issue has returned. Now at age 59 I have been fortunate again to gain relief from my reflux problem simply by filtering my tap water with 2 ceramic filters. Apparently the chlorine removal has aided this issue because I rarely have to take Tums for the tummy. I was taking them daily before. I will try supplementing magnesium to see if it will help with adrenaline levels. Too much anxiety is simply exhausting to the body and gets worse as age increases.
I think we confuse anxiety with acid reflux. Because when you eat you food don’t digest properly and it goes goes up and it causes heart palpitations and even the doctor get confuse. I speak from experience because one day I had what I thought anxiety and I drink gingerale and my anxiety went away. And guess what my heart doctor wanted to operate me for a afib.
Love your videos I will be sharing this one too! I knew I needed magnesium but you filled in alot of the blanks on other issues too! Absolutely love all your videos!!!!
Popeye knew about this. Hence the leafy green spinach he ate all the time to get his energy up. He also had a great love for Olive Oil I understand. Yuk yuk yuk yuk.
Awhile back I started getting cramps in my inner thighs, during my first ones, I broke out in a cold sweat, had no idea what on earth was happening, thought about calling 911, but I couldn’t walk to the door to let anyone in. The intense pain lasted about a half hour, and I absolutely had never had such pain. Finally someone told me to take magnesium, what a difference that made. After I started taking it, I very seldom was bothered by them......except the time I was visiting a friend and got one, so as to not wake my friend, I made my way to the kitchen in the dark, opened the frig to get a small ice pack, then went back to bed. The next morning I sat up in bed, looked down at what I had thought was a small ice pack, but instead I had grabbed a now thawed out hamburger patty!!!!!! 😂
Next time you break dance to the fridge in the wee hours grab a gob of MUSTARD. Don’t ask me why but it works almost instantly. Besides, if you’re doing the late hand how on earth are you going to open that little magnesium packet with the magnesium in it. It’s like they are scientifically designed NOT to tear across the top where the contents are. Scissors you say🤨. Yea just try using scissors half asleep with 2 lobster claw hands. Then your thumb that’s a tad small for the girly loops those junk scissors gets caught in there and the howling begins. You feel and look stupider than Edward Scissiorhands and it’s not a bit funny! Do you want worse? Try stumbling down the hall on the knife edge of your feet because you can’t stand or walk flat. If you’re under 55 all i can say is you ain’t seen nothin yet………
Hi Dr Berg. I thank you very much for all your videos. They are of great help. I started your apple cider vinager pills and then switched to brags' vinager. Reduced coffee too and magic: acid reflux is controlled. Now, I'm on magnesium citrate with calcium and simply magic: my nails are growing healthy and strong for the first time in years. I also did your wheatgrass pouder, I do spirulina, I did vitex, but I learned that for concentrated greens I require to dilute in lemon water, or vinager better, since I don't have much HCL. I'm not a sick person, I don't qualify for that to doctors, yet I went to an iridiologist who happened to make a study of symptoms in which I was made aware I had, or have had 33 Ackes and pains: from acid reflux, to heavy legs, from dry eyes (in the past corrected adding omega oils and avocados. In fact at 33 I was told I had chronic eye dryness. Yet It reversed with adequate diet changes) I reduced sugars and capacity to workout returned. Since I had some of the few miomas removed, I took the serapeptase and nattokinasse advice. Also to relax, sleep better, and workout hard only once a week if at all since I know my body is stressed. I also take probiotics. I know all my ailments have a nutritional base. I know I created the many symptoms I have with a restrictive diet. God bless you and all your family. Oh last and not least: I was alergic from birth to polen, dust mites and dandruff, and at 33 Aproximatelly it was controlled with transfer factor plus and schisandra plus. I'm now 45. I know I have a leaky gut, because of an onset of lactose intolerance at 35, and then bones started acking in the morning at 43 approx. So I'm working to correct leaky gut or scurvy In the gut. I've always had something wrong with my imune system, so Yeah! Life and Death, and also decomposition starts in the gut. Any video on leaky gut I appreciate it. ... Carmen S. From Panama, Central America. I hope I was not too long.😊
I've been taking magnesium and potassium together before bed and it takes my BP from 150/105 to 130/85. And I'm only about a week in. Potassium by itself will not do much and magnesium by itself neither. But there's somthing about taking them together that is really helping.
@Tanya Johnson I use dr berg electrolyte powder for the potassium 1 scoop .. and I add 1 scoop of drs best brand powder magnesium lysinate glycinate. Another thing I did not mention is fish oil. I take viva naturals triple strength omega 3 fish oil and that combined some days my blood pressure is actually normal . I actually take quite alot Of that.. the serving is 2 capsules but I take 4 capsules 2 or 3 times a day
Hi Dr. Berg, can you make a video on all the vitamins and minerals you recommend please. Please include the types or where we can find them. I usually just get Centrum, but I know those are not the best quality. I appreciate every video you post on here. You are changing peoples' lives every day. I know you have touched mine with your advice. Thank you!
For years I knew that spinach somehow made me feel better and never knew why. Spinach was almost my personal super food along with beetroot. When I felt crap, I knew I had neglected spinach. Its THE one veg, even more than kale, that sorts me out. I would assume I naturally have some deficiency which is corrected by spinach... most likely magnesium, and I never knew until recently.
I became magnesium deficient recently from the stress of dating emotionally unavailable men. I decided to stop dating altogether because the stress is not worth the excitement of meeting new people.
I take glycinate. Most cause the trots though (avoid cheap magnesium oxide which doesn't absorb well) so I've had to incorporate kale, spinach, ground linseed, nuts avocados to my diet more regularly instead. M. L-threonate is supposed to go through the blood brain barrier which is good for those with rigid thoughts?
I really needed this. Very well explained. I would have appreciated having you as an instructor when completing the PTA program. Will share. Thank you!
Thanks Eric. I'm going to try the wheat grass supplement. I definitely noticed the effects of taking magnesium when I was pregnant with leg cramps, the only thing that would fix it was magnesium.

I'm a bodybuilder, and i have recently went through a tough transformation.. I weighed 130 kg (fat) and last year lost 43 kg in total.. Now im working on improving my muscle and strength and im experiencing so many difficulties.. I have tendon issue, high blood pressure, loss of sleep, muscle cramps and bad recovery, and a couple weeks ago a kidney stone started to form... After i watched you video it made me think.. I stayed up all night to research and did some tests, and after consulting a physician and a licensed nutritionist and told them my take on my case they both agreed.. Im getting my magnesium now and never ever gona forget!
Thanks allot doc ❤️
Clean up your diet. Try going vegan for a week. Take some time off to rest and recover. Give your heart a break.
Ya its not normal to lose weight so fast and think we can just be ok. We have to heal oir organs from all the fat that it burned off.
Hi Asef, how did your diet go? Did it work?
I wish I knew this about 40 years ago! It explains so much about my childhood.
Aimee Miles I totally agree. I think a poor diet for myself and so many others could be the root cause of so many physical and mental health issues as children
NO NOT ALL OF IT'. MOST IS drs AND MEDICATIONS PRODUCTS FOOD ALL POISON.@@tmf9556
Oh my goodness...I had passed a kidney stone a year ago. Also, when he said twitching on the nerve and pointed to his eye, this struck a chord with me. I had so many eyelid twitches for about 2 or 3 weeks until eventually I had a massive panic attack, palpitations, anxiety, exhaustion, sleep problems, brain fog, inability to concentrate, severe muscle cramps and knots all up and down my back, gastritis etc etc a looooong list going on for nearly a month now. I have been taking magnesium for 3 days and have already seen a huge improvement in being calm, more energised, body aches are going away.... Amazing!
You are saving my life one video at a time! Years of doctors and medical bills and no one has ever mentioned any of this! Or insulin resistance. Thank you so much!! I’m down 62 pounds and have more energy than I’ve had in years. The constant heart burn is getting better. Well, so many issues are getting better!!!
Dr. Berg doesn't know how much we appreciate this simple very informative video.
We need more videos like this, to tell us exacly what to do when we are feeling a certain way.
Most videos explain things in a round about way, which leaves us wondering what we have and what to do about it. This video gets right to it. PRICELESS. God bless Dr. Berg for uploading this video.
Lets let him know how much we love his videos, so he can make more "to the point" videos like this.
Thank you for getting straight to the subject. Most of these type of videos take 20 minutes to get to what we really need to know.
Amen to that!
Wish I had known of benefits of magnesium as a teenager!!!! Could have saved my life long anxiety and depression!!!
God Almighty Is Supreme!
We Are His Own Children!
Amen!
Are you taking these ? And is it helping you out for depression and all anxiety issues?
@@shammikalra6174 No.
Its never too late to get your health back
@Christian Hairston no to what shammi kalra said.
I just took two 100mg magnesium about 5 minutes ago... my headache I've been having for months is feeling better already.
Also increase you water intake. Most headaches are specifically related to dehydration. There are 6 levels of deydration which is not commonly known. Once you reach stage four you are in the danger zone because you have lost your thirst sensor & now have an aversion to water (do not desire or even like the taste of water). Increase your consumption of water slowly & you will likely see a difference in your headaches.
@@Nabiyah1 thanks for sharing something so vital
I have sinus pains and temple headache. even my jaw and gums hurt atm...
just realized my supplements only contained 30 or so mg per pill. was taking only 1 or 2 per day, hope this solves it as i regularly eat eggs.
@@Sharrrowkyn drink lots of water that really is a key and I can bounce for it because of my own experience with migraine headaches I'm 70 years old I've had them since I was 20 and from age 34 I think I said 35 in another comment but from age 34 to 55 all the way up to 60 really well up to 55 I had them every day and then from there I still have them pretty frequently and now I just have them once in awhile and it's because over the last 15 to 17 18 years something like that I've been drinking ton of water I mean the normal amount and sometimes more than the number of amount per day so and my headaches are definitely improved considerably please drink lots of water that will help you
I wound up in the hospital with horrible insomnia and stress and anxiety. Thought I had severe sleep apnea and it was panic attack symptoms making me feel like my breathing had stopped.Not one word was spoken about Magnesium. Instead they put me on Lexapro, which is an anti-anxiety medication and I had a horrible reaction to it. It was awful. I only took 2 doses of it and got off of it immediately ! So sad that so many doctors think Psychiatric drugs with crippling side effects are the answer to everything.
How are u after stopping lexapro donu have brain fog? Side effects
@@indaymemeh2426 I only took two doses of Lexapro and that was enough for me. They gave me my first dose when they released me from the hospital, and then the next day I took the second dose, and later went to make a pot of coffee to get the day started, and started crying like a baby for no reason at all. I got in my car, went to the emergency room and told them to get me off of this crap or i am going to go home and just do it myself. So they gave me an I.V. to help flush it out of my system, and since I had only had 2 doses, it was no problem getting off of it.NEVER AGAIN !
@@richardbuse228 felt bad for that 😔 are you taking magnesium after that? For my own experience i went to the clinic and the doctor prescribed me a ecseclopram, i took it only 1 day, until i felt so nad in my brain😔had a ringing in the ears its keeps me depressed, untill now 😩 i want to try magnesium glycinate i hope it will heal right away
@@indaymemeh2426 No, I am not taking now. I took magnesium for anxiety for about 3 months and that was it.
@@richardbuse228 does it helps for insomnia?
I've started taking magnesium and feel less tired and less muscle cramps. Just avoid magnesium oxide, it's bad for your stomach. A better one to take is magnesium malate.
Doc how much tablets per day should you take..And which one is best for leg cramps and sleepless night .and ever tired
Jasmine thank you for that information because I I'm going to take it for myself but I really think my brother needs to take it and he won't drink any crazy drink like wheatgrass but he will take a supplement so I'll be looking that up and I appreciate that I know you didn't even know if anybody would read your comment but I just did and thanks 😇❤️🌹
This information would've saved my dad's life.

You can also get magnesium from an epsom salt bath because it can be accepted through the skin directly. I had one this morning. Super relaxing.
Joseph Ward thanks for the reminder:)
Did Dr. Berg mention that? If not, he should! Thanks
Magnesium chloride is much much more affective and long term than magnesium sulphate (epsom salts). Please look into magnesium oil that you spray on. Really cheap to make yourself from the flakes (amazon!). If it stings, just dilute it in more water. When you are deficient, it can sting/itch when you start using it since it's being drawn through your skin. You can also have detox symptoms since magnesium helps in detox. Don't over do it until you are use to it, but it is absolutely incredible. It took about 3 weeks to gradually go from debilitating anxiety with moodyness, to calm and focused.
How do I make Epsom salt oil? Magnesium oil? I believe my husband is deficient and he refuses to eat leafy greens. He's on high bp meds, antidepressants and antacids! Everything doc said is bad! Advice please :)
Virginia Webb
Just buy the oil, it is cheap enough. Amazon or Iherb for example.
Also I heard somewhere, can't remember, I probably would avoid putting salts in boiling water or magnesium flakes, I am pretty sure it kills, or drastically reduces the benefits.
I found some of this to be true for me. When I started getting more magnesium I got considerably better.
After years of disabling migraine headaches, my friend's doctor told me it was probably caused by magnesium deficiency. I started taking it that day & never had another migraine. No doctor before ever had a suggestion for help...only pain meds which I would not take.
How much do you take every day of elemental magnesium please?
I am disabled with chronic illnesses/pain but also have 2-4 days of severe migraine per week.
Yes I started getting enough magnesium and no more problems with AFib. God Bless Dr Berg for all his excellent information.
Same❤
This videos make me think I’m deficient in every Vitamin and Minerals! I’m basically a walking zombie 😂😂😂
@Lovely, I stopped taking a multivitamin a few years ago because they announced on the news that they could kill older women! Go figure! You don't know what to believe anymore!
I am sure you have low onion gap you have more negative ions you need positive ions like magnesium and calcium it have good muscles functions and have good balance when you stand or walk
linda handley .
Dr. Berg always tells us to take food based natural vitamin supplements, not synthetic vitamins. Synthetic vitamins can be « dangerous » because they don’t really work so well, so you think that your taking vitamins while really you aren’t. For instance : magnesium oxide is almost totally useless.
Have a good day.
@@1963pipo Magnesium Oxide is the worst form. Magnesium Chloride is the most bioavailable & safest & is Transdermal (absorbed through the skin) & bypasses the digestive track to take in large amounts without the normal diarrhea effect that oxide, citrate, sulfate, glycinate, & other digestion dependable forms can cause.
Mental images of you banging on the doors of the local shopping mall.
Too funny.
You saved my life, was addimited coz my heart was pausing and had blood pressure...I was worried coz i train 5 times a week and eat clean and in my 30's...watched this ....bought omega3...vitamin D and magnesium...went back to the hospital they found my blood pressure was normal and my heart was normal too...God bless
That's nice to hear! 😍
What type of magnesium you take?
A video describing the different forms of magnesium and how effective they are, possible side effects would be great.
Mr. S side effects? Gas. Lots of it. So if you can take the smallest dosage and go from there. Otherwise you will probably sleep bad because of the farting. I'm not even joking, I've taken magnesium for over a year now because of my thyroid issues.
Gabriela Velasco I take 200 ml in the morning and 200. ml in the night and I don’t have any kind of of problems. Look for Blue green algae ,organic plant based nutrients from Klamath Lake ,60 capsules dietary supplement. Only cost $ 15.00 dollars in Amazon . I heard a nutritionist doctor that is good for people with thyroid problem.
Make your own magnesium oil. There are lots of videos on UA-cam.
Gaby Velasco So does magnesium deficiency cause hypothyroid symptoms?
yoruel sanguillen Good question. They have similar symptoms.
Thank you, Doctor. You are a good man to share your knowledge and honesty. I trust you.
I get so much Angina pain in my chest ...was hospitalized a few years back...this is truly informative 👏
Helping me tremendously with my anxiety.
@Nic's-Electronics
Glad you find it helpful.
Magnesium source: dark chocolate, yay.
Mark Dawson
..and depletes serotonin
channel-z Lies! This Italian 85% dark choc I’m eating now makes me so happy. :))
Mark Dawson
yes because it replaces your natural serotonin w some other chemical component within itself, making your own actual serotonin "leave", since it's been "replaced"... essentially.
you can look this stuff up. i'm the biggest chocoholic ever made.. and i can't have it anymore from the high oxalate levels my body can't handle anymore without a headache, and for the serotonin explanation i said above.
trust me outside those two things i would literally happily drown myself in chocolate. you just need a serotonin booster if you eat a lot of it is all.
take amino acid l tryptophan for a good serotonin boost and you should balance out. hope that helps
channel-z Of course you’re right. But your info is a bit of a Debbie Downer. I love chocolate. Just the word makes me happy.
Mark Dawson
lol agreed
Taking magnesium at night gives me a headache in the morning. It’s opposite to what many people claim magnesium should do.
Dr. Berg thank you. You're doing a great service for people like myself who don't find the answers in Pharma based "health" care. Doctores should leartn more about these things and diet instead. Thanks again.
dr. Eric, you are such a blessing! Thank you so much for caring in a field where so many are concerned about money you are truly concerned about people. Thank you for being such a blessing to us!
IV magnesium saved my daughters life when she was having an asthma attack. Anyone with asthma should have this daily.
May I ask what form of magnesium your daughter takes and the dose ? ThAnks.
@@henryhendrika5689 Its called ionic magnesium, it's in liquid form, by a company called Good State. It doesnt taste great but she only has enough to fill the bottom of the cap daily, with juice. Though she could have more less often. Boswellia Serrata (frankincense) capsules are also amazing for asthma etc. These are not needed after the problem goes away but continue with the magnesium. I'd also recommend vit D3 at 5000 to 10000 units a day, together with zinc and vit C (C at 1000mg to 2000mg). Best wishes.
Not every asthma attack responds to magnesium. Be wise, don’t assume all things are alike or the same.
@@Mt-ue9qz If someone with asthma has not tried boosting their magnesium level then it is worth trying. Asthma kills people. I am trying to offer a suggestion with my own experience with a safe substance that everyone needs.
@@leighwalton8190 I understand but so many people take information incorrectly so I just wanted to point out that magnesium isn’t a sure cure. Too many non-thinkers out there these days.
In high school I had lots of heart issues like-fluttery, skipped beats, palpitations, you name it. Esp after being active!! I was put on a monitor and told I’d grow out of it (of course)...In college I couldn’t sleep, so my mom told me about Magnesium for nerve & muscle function (important!) and the sleep AND heart issue stopped within a couple weeks!! Never knew it was Magnesium. Wow. Thank you for your videos!!!

The night cramps and thoughts of suicide have all been alleviated thanks to the magnesium supplement that I found at GNC. I now wonder if all suicidal man or people for that matter were just magnesium deficient and could've just been saved if their doctors had done their blood work. I only figured out I was magnesium deficient listening to Joe Rogan podcast, my doctor never suggested getting my blood work done. Thank God for Joe Rogan.
I can relate! It really opens your eyes once you realize our negative thoughts and feelings are so often because we're physically sick. After using magnesoum oil for about 3 weeks, even really negative things didn't ruin me. If you haven't used it in a spray form, you might want to look into it. So great you were able to help yourself! I really know what it's like!
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing your experience T. Baggins. Hope you are still doing well ♥️ I will share your advice!

Skipped vids on this topic with stressful vibes and voices, stopped at yours
I would add muscle weakness/soreness to that list as well.
As usual:
life, money and time saving knowledge.
Thank you Dr.
Helpful..will have to read this again
I would like to add that consuming magnesium daily has stopped a very bad edema problem (excessive swelling of feet and ankles) that I lived with for years. It is almost magical how it disappeared after only ingesting the mineral daily for around 10 days. Leg cramps were mentioned by the kind doctor and those too have disappeared along with all those fitful nights of non-sleep. I cannot be more pleased with the results. Better sleep and better mood all around. I even went to specialists and was always just told to drink more water, move more, keep feet elevated, which I tried. Because of its low cost, I would simply encourage to try it for 2 weeks and feel the difference.
And I would add that I lost 12 lbs the first week just because of the water retention.
Roseanne Gauthier , great and helpful post. Thank you for sharing your experience
Which magnesium do you use
Roseann Gauthier I'd like to know this as well. There are a few kinds of magnesium. I too suffer from edema in my calves, ankles and feet.
Roseanne Gauthier true !
Dr Berg, only two words to say that is THANK U.
My pleasure!
Magnesium sounds like an amazing mineral! I'll have to get some.
hahaha
I had been taking a magnesium citrate supplement to alleviate nighttime leg cramps but they were still awful. I went to the doctor last week and was diagnosed with diabetes. She advised me to stop taking my calcium supplement due to the possible buildup of plaque in the heart. We discussed my magnesium supplement and agreed I should switch to a different form of magnesium (I already had chelated magnesium on hand so I’m now taking that) and she recommended I double my dosage and take 2000 IUs of D3. No more nighttime leg cramps! Not even a hint of a foot cramp, which were always precursors to leg cramps. My doctor’s advice is almost the same as yours. Thank you for what you’re doing for others!
B M , sun sitting is a little difficult when I live in Minnesota. I do spend a lot of time outside in the summer. I’ll keep your advice in mind though. Thanks.
Can I take magasium supplements as well as the apple cider vinegar/lemon drink ?
Sure
Actually, your drink will raise the acidity of your stomach and make the magnesium better absorbed. Drink first, then take the magnesium supplement a few minutes after.
Drink with lots of water usually 8 to 10 ounces( 1 table spoon or 1-1/2 tea spoons acv)because it will hurt your teeth throat stomach lining !
Yeah, limes, I use the green one, it is better. Never cold water.
I have learned a great deal from your videos thank you very much I'm strict Ketogenic diet and always looking for good information
(In all seriousness) THUTH!, Magnesium has truly helped me!
Very pleasant / regulated body / calming my nervous sys, and more!
🙌🏼Hail Magnesium🙌🏼
Can you please share which form and brand you used?
Slothy q
As he said in the VOD:
Vitamin D and a strong stomach acid - both required to absorb magnesium.
Danibolical 1 sounds good ..what is the potency? 320mg supposed to be the quantity for women.. Hope it doesn't raise bp as I'm hypertensive
I take a liquid magnesium and results in just a week were simply amazing! From teeth to body temperature and all in between. Helped with nuerapthy and so so much more.

I recently took the first dose of Beta Blocker in my entire life for palpitation. And it gave me vasospasm and angina. I think magnesium saved me.
This is your best video on magnesium
Oh wow! I appreciate those kind words.
i love this guy
My " man" almost died from lack of magnesium. The doctor said she couldn't wait to give the magnesium drip intravenous ,so she had to start the drip while they tried to get him in the CT or MR machine. He shaked and later they told me, it was so close he didn't die that day, because he needed magnesium. He was sick with cancer, but still, I never knew magnesium was so important it could kill someone and that it was given intravenous alone.
I have a surgeon dad ,but I don't think doctors learn so much about vitamins and foods stuff in medical school. I have struggled with liver disease, my brother kidney disease, my " man " cancer and food wasn't anything the doctors said anything about. My brother got a few advice, but it turned out that his advice wasn't right when he four years after starting dialysis finally after we asked for advice got a neutrition person to write up what to eat and not.
Start to understand how important food and neutrition is for everything to work together as it should.
Let food be they medicine, and medicine be they food.. was that Hypocrites?
I took one today. Huge improvement in my mood and motivation!

Also your Electrolyte Power (Raspberry & Lemon) taste so delicious, my only drink now!

@@trishawhite3444 Yes, it is a great idea, you husband is a lucky man for having you taking care of him, Gatorade it’s full of sugar!
I get my magnesium and potassium from Dr. Berg’s Electrolyte Power, no sugar he uses stevia, my favorite flavor is Raspberry and Lemon, 1 scoop on 24 oz of water or 16 oz depending on how much water you need, I do drink 6 cups of water a day(24 + 24 oz) so I do use 2 scoops a day, it gives me 240 mg of magnesium, and 2000 mg of potassium a day and I feel great. I do order my from Amazon, it’s easy for me!
I wish the best for you and your husband!
@@allkleencontractor thanks so much for that information. I will definitely check it out!

I have had acid reflux problems since age 25. The problem went away on its own during a 1 year-long diet change to the hallelujah diet which I did about 20 years ago, but just one year. Over the years since, back on the standard american diet (SAD) the reflux issue has returned. Now at age 59 I have been fortunate again to gain relief from my reflux problem simply by filtering my tap water with 2 ceramic filters. Apparently the chlorine removal has aided this issue because I rarely have to take Tums for the tummy. I was taking them daily before. I will try supplementing magnesium to see if it will help with adrenaline levels. Too much anxiety is simply exhausting to the body and gets worse as age increases.
I think we confuse anxiety with acid reflux. Because when you eat you food don’t digest properly and it goes goes up and it causes heart palpitations and even the doctor get confuse. I speak from experience because one day I had what I thought anxiety and I drink gingerale and my anxiety went away. And guess what my heart doctor wanted to operate me for a afib.
Once you ditch grains and all foods with antinutrients, it gets very hard to get enough magnesium from diet.
Imagine Dr Berg being your local doctor. Imagine a society, where people knew what to take in since childhood.
I knowwwww right?
Starting magnesium today
How has your life changed or improved ever since you started taking magnesium??
Love your videos I will be sharing this one too! I knew I needed magnesium but you filled in alot of the blanks on other issues too! Absolutely love all your videos!!!!
Magnesium has helped me with restless leg syndrome. Maybe a video on this could help people.
Popeye knew about this. Hence the leafy green spinach he ate all the time to get his energy up. He also had a great love for Olive Oil I understand. Yuk yuk yuk yuk.
Remember Wimpy from Popeye? He's the fat guy that loved hamburgers, "I'll pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today."
Excellent teacher. Very nice way of imparting information. Thank You.
Thank you. My wife has many of this symptoms like stress for no reason.
Awhile back I started getting cramps in my inner thighs, during my first ones, I broke out in a cold sweat, had no idea what on earth was happening, thought about calling 911, but I couldn’t walk to the door to let anyone in. The intense pain lasted about a half hour, and I absolutely
had never had such pain. Finally someone told me to take magnesium, what a difference that made. After I started taking it, I very seldom was bothered by them......except the time I was visiting a friend and got one, so as to not wake my friend, I made my way to the kitchen in the dark,
opened the frig to get a small ice pack, then went back to bed. The next morning I sat up in bed, looked down at what I had thought was a small ice pack, but instead I had grabbed a now thawed out hamburger patty!!!!!! 😂
We also keep a salt shaker by our bed at night when we have leg cramps and that really helps right away too take care
Next time you break dance to the fridge in the wee hours grab a gob of MUSTARD. Don’t ask me why but it works almost instantly. Besides, if you’re doing the late hand how on earth are you going to open that little magnesium packet with the magnesium in it. It’s like they are scientifically designed NOT to tear across the top where the contents are. Scissors you say🤨. Yea just try using scissors half asleep with 2 lobster claw hands. Then your thumb that’s a tad small for the girly loops those junk scissors gets caught in there and the howling begins. You feel and look stupider than Edward Scissiorhands and it’s not a bit funny!
Do you want worse? Try stumbling down the hall on the knife edge of your feet because you can’t stand or walk flat. If you’re under 55 all i can say is you ain’t seen nothin yet………
When I ate the SAD, I had to take antacids most nights. Now I eat lots of leafy greens and do intermittent fasting. I never need antacids any more.
Gramma Bear you need to do colon cleanser too! Very important .

Heart attack is probably the most severe symptom of magnesium deficiency.
thank you for helping humanity .... i really enjoy your videos

What a throw back
Always love the content ❤
Haha yeah I noticed the same thing lol..can't believe he's 57❤
Hi Dr Berg. I thank you very much for all your videos. They are of great help. I started your apple cider vinager pills and then switched to brags' vinager. Reduced coffee too and magic: acid reflux is controlled. Now, I'm on magnesium citrate with calcium and simply magic: my nails are growing healthy and strong for the first time in years. I also did your wheatgrass pouder, I do spirulina, I did vitex, but I learned that for concentrated greens I require to dilute in lemon water, or vinager better, since I don't have much HCL. I'm not a sick person, I don't qualify for that to doctors, yet I went to an iridiologist who happened to make a study of symptoms in which I was made aware I had, or have had 33 Ackes and pains: from acid reflux, to heavy legs, from dry eyes (in the past corrected adding omega oils and avocados. In fact at 33 I was told I had chronic eye dryness. Yet It reversed with adequate diet changes) I reduced sugars and capacity to workout returned. Since I had some of the few miomas removed, I took the serapeptase and nattokinasse advice. Also to relax, sleep better, and workout hard only once a week if at all since I know my body is stressed. I also take probiotics. I know all my ailments have a nutritional base. I know I created the many symptoms I have with a restrictive diet. God bless you and all your family. Oh last and not least: I was alergic from birth to polen, dust mites and dandruff, and at 33 Aproximatelly it was controlled with transfer factor plus and schisandra plus. I'm now 45. I know I have a leaky gut, because of an onset of lactose intolerance at 35, and then bones started acking in the morning at 43 approx. So I'm working to correct leaky gut or scurvy In the gut. I've always had something wrong with my imune system, so Yeah! Life and Death, and also decomposition starts in the gut. Any video on leaky gut I appreciate it. ... Carmen S. From Panama, Central America. I hope I was not too long.😊

I've been taking magnesium and potassium together before bed and it takes my BP from 150/105 to 130/85. And I'm only about a week in. Potassium by itself will not do much and magnesium by itself neither. But there's somthing about taking them together that is really helping.
How many milligrams of each?
@Tanya Johnson I use dr berg electrolyte powder for the potassium 1 scoop .. and I add 1 scoop of drs best brand powder magnesium lysinate glycinate. Another thing I did not mention is fish oil. I take viva naturals triple strength omega 3 fish oil and that combined some days my blood pressure is actually normal . I actually take quite alot Of that.. the serving is 2 capsules but I take 4 capsules 2 or 3 times a day
Hi Dr. Berg, can you make a video on all the vitamins and minerals you recommend please. Please include the types or where we can find them. I usually just get Centrum, but I know those are not the best quality. I appreciate every video you post on here. You are changing peoples' lives every day. I know you have touched mine with your advice. Thank you!
For years I knew that spinach somehow made me feel better and never knew why. Spinach was almost my personal super food along with beetroot. When I felt crap, I knew I had neglected spinach. Its THE one veg, even more than kale, that sorts me out. I would assume I naturally have some deficiency which is corrected by spinach... most likely magnesium, and I never knew until recently.
Omg me too. I love spinach and beets.
I just finished watching “your” video about the danger of magnesium. This is now scary stuff!
plantar fasciitis! low potassium and magnesium. I'm on it! great info. Thank you Dr.
I became magnesium deficient recently from the stress of dating emotionally unavailable men. I decided to stop dating altogether because the stress is not worth the excitement of meeting new people.
Please tell us the type of mg because there are many kinds.
Magnesium Glycinate is the most absorbable.
Did he say wheat grass? Or wheat grem
2x500mg glycinate pure
I take glycinate. Most cause the trots though (avoid cheap magnesium oxide which doesn't absorb well) so I've had to incorporate kale, spinach, ground linseed, nuts avocados to my diet more regularly instead. M. L-threonate is supposed to go through the blood brain barrier which is good for those with rigid thoughts?

s brown he does sometimes. He's really busy person.
He never said he would reply, he just doesn't want you to feel left out so he lets you know where to stick it.
That doesn't mean he won't read it or make a video about it later. Stop being a self entitled whiney, the world doesn't revolve around you.
Never is a generalization. I've seen his responses.
He has over a million subscriber's.That could be a major reason He,doesn't reply.
Your videos are the greatest! I have learned so much!
Thanks Eric. I'm going to try the wheat grass supplement. I definitely noticed the effects of taking magnesium when I was pregnant with leg cramps, the only thing that would fix it was magnesium.
Excellent information
I purchased some magnesium chloride oil and use it every night on my skin before bedtime. Great sleep.
Does it work?
