Low magnesium (Hypomagnesemia) | Causes, Symptoms, Treatment | & Role of Magnesium, Dietary Sources
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 лип 2024
- Lesson on low magnesium (hypomagnesemia), purpose of magnesium, dietary sources of magnesium, causes of low magnesium, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment. Magnesium is an important element acquired from our diet that is required for many enzymatic processes including DNA, RNA, and protein synthesis. There are many dietary sources of magnesium including almonds, broccoli, and bananas. There are several categories of causes of low magnesium including decreased intake, increased losses, among others, and can also be caused by certain medications. In this lesson, we discuss multiple causes within each of these categories and discuss many different types of medications that can lead to low magnesium levels. We also discuss some of the signs and symptoms of having low magnesium, coexisting electrolyte disturbances, and ECG abnormalities caused by low magnesium. We also discussed how we can treat both mild and severe hypomagnesemia.

when i just started training in 2018 i actually got depressed from the workouts i didn't know what was going on. turns out my electrolytes were completly out of balance (sodium, magnesium, potassium) one time i stood up out of bed and my vision blacked out and i fell down on my knee. electrolytes are so important for athletes and clean eaters. put some seasalt on your food if you dont eat processed. load up on vegetables low in anti nutrients (anti nutrients bind to vitamins and minerals and take them out of the body) to get magnesium & potassium. magnesium citrate supplements give me the shits. magnesium glycinate and l-threonate are the best > l-threonate seems to be good for brain health also
My deficiency causes skeletal muscles spasms like never before. When muscle starts to pull it twist and bends my fingers into forearms moves to feet to calf’s the same then rib muscles cramp all over like that. Magnesium saved me so far. Learned way late suffered for yrs. before.
indeed, found out after years of health woes !
Interesting.
Was this incredible painful for you? I went through the same thing last year, I had severe magnesium, calcium, potassium, and phosphate deficiencies. I thought I would die of pain and the subsequent seizures
@@user-wi7kw4df7z hey what is your symptoms pls share I am 21 and facing lots of body aches after my weight loss pls 🙏 share
I like to see this speaker near the bathroom taking Mg Oxide. The oxide will tear your stomach up leaving you with very weak muscle, weak legs, foggy brain and painful stomach lining. My doctor said I need 600 Mg. I try and was so weak brought the glycinate form.
Thank you so much for the great lesson.🙏🏾😍
Glad you liked it! :)
@@jjmedicine is difficult in sleeping also a sign of magnesium deficiency? is supplementing with magnesium glycinate can help?
Thanks for making this
Very informative
highly informative, thank you!
Magnesium Oxide has poor absorption. Citrate and stearate are laxative and decreases. I take Threonate and glycinate, I feel better.
Oh. Okay. I didn't know that. I take citrate (i need it) but i have not looked at the others.
Take Glycinate and malate. Magnesium. They work with the brain and relaxes you. Watch Dr Eric Berg
@J J medicine, could you talk about what minerals that could cause HAE?
I am one medical student from china， thank you so much for your presentation，keep on that.
Welcome to my channel! Thanks for the kind comment! Hope you enjoy the rest of my lessons :)
just textbook materials
Can this issue cause many bathroom breaks at night? You I have to P at night?
I recently had a lot of sprain inury.... so I began taking magnesium supplement. Suddenly, my digestion improved dramatically. Muscle soreness and pain seems to be gone faster. Can too low magnesium actually lead to easy muscle sprain? Or I was just lifting too heavy and too many repetition?
Nice! What magnesium form and how much, and how long before your digestion improved? My appetite completely dissapeared and k have bloating on the right side after I did a 10 week course of 50,000 vitamin d …
use mag cream, much better to absorb thru skin! bad gut health most of us have limits absorption. only brand in cream form is asutra 'melt pain away' safe to use nightly before bed.
@@saltpepper1894 magnesium glycinate citrate malate for absorption
@@winstreak8001 nobody makes a cream with that mag...so...not if you have bad gut health. pills are only about 30% absorbed, mag cream is 80%
I took nexium for over 20 years and now in my early 50s I have issues with idiopathic neuropathy in both feet brain fog depression and some anxiety and it's getting tough to just through the day...wonder if I'm having issues with low magnesium...my blood work says I'm fine but magnesium is not tested. Help
magnesium oxide?
that doesn’t seem right.
in fact, opposite of what they say about magnesium oxide because it promotes diarrhea, and then you’ll loose even more magnesium.
could you explain why you selected oxide over gluconate or glycinate which are both know for being less likely to cause diarrhea.
these are not my findings, i’m only reiterating.
Yes, I have taken magnesium oxide and it is NOT a good choice for magnesium. Definitely promotes diarrhea and is not as easily absorbed.
I was also surprised by the prescription of magnesium oxide. Magnesium oxide has the lowest level of absorption at only 4%. Glycinate, Malate, L-Theonate, and especially, Magnesium Glycerophosphate have much higher levels of absorption.
@@callmeishmael3031 but there a lot more of magnesium in magnesium oxide compounds
@@daisiesandpandas1218 It would be interesting to see a chart comparison of that.
why suppement with magnesium oxide? what about citrate and malate and chelated which are much better than oxide!
Oxide is not good at all
He just hasn't researched this very thoroughly. Probably used only one source for his information. Magnesium oxide is not a good form and should be avoided. All other forms you mentioned are better and should, given time, correct a deficiency.
I was also surprised by the prescription of magnesium oxide. Magnesium oxide has the lowest level of absorption at only 4%. Glycinate, Malate, L-Theonate, and especially, Magnesium Glycerophosphate have much higher levels of absorption.
That blood pressure thing is always a problem for me. If you have a patient like me who is low on magnesium they will constantly ask you to take the cuff off.
I wonder if someone has hypomagnesemia if they could build muscle because of the impaired protein synthesis.
Yes, you build that shit so quick
Mag helps my dizziness and sphincter of oddi dysfunction
Cnt sleep without magnesium glycinate or threonate.
Why oxide? Thank you!
RDI = 300-400mg/d, what about RDA?
So far I know magnesium glycinate is the best , than citrate & others, not oxide.
I take both daily.
What about malate and threonate?
@@giuseppinasanger6410 both those are good.
How do you know?
Magnesium Biglycinate is the best and the most expensive form. Biglycinate also helps with sleep
How about random swelling in body that moves around? Could the deficiency cause another problem that causes the swelling?
That's called an erection!
Hi great videos , subscribed, How does fluoride in water effect magnesium levels. I work in the heat a lot and drink lot of water with fluoride. ☹️
The bigger problem has been acid rain, washing magnesium from soil, so we see a large drop in dietary intake of magnesium as it drops from the food chain. So, we see the effect on the population level, due to affordable food quality and availability. For example, in the US, African American populations have higher rate of magnesium intake deficiency, but it's still fairly high in the rest of the population. Weight gain, diabetes (II) are predictable outcomes of magnesium deficiency, as you cannot use the energy in your food without sufficient magnesium (plus other things, of course) and so it can only be stored as fat.
Stop drinking fluoridated water
@@anitaevans5361 I drink 10 litters perday. Hot hard work. Bottle water to expensive. Fluoride is in the tap water. I drink rain water now as it tastes better, have big ass freezer.
I stopped fluoride water 2009, buying 5 gln reverse osmosis water bottles, at .75 cents a gallon, from the local water store here. 1 bottle lasts me 2 1/2 days, I just refill a large water bottle or take a 1 gln container with me. I can smell & taste chlorinated fluoride water from faucet or at restaurant. It was a small commitment I made to myself & my kids back then. I'm not wealthy nor even middle class, I figure I can put $20 towards clean water a month, minus the little single use bottles that fill the oceans & landfills.
I bought a Britta filter system for my kitchen faucet because my doctor said fluoridation can cause Hypokalamia, it stripped my potassium level also I have low magnesium.
So if someone is deficient in magnesium, how long does it take to replenish magnesium?
They say 6 weeks to 1 year approximately
2-4 months is realistic
Magnesium oxide is only 4% absorbable. What’s the point of using it?
As a laxative.
How can you have too much. The body just gets rid of it if you have too much
Only if your kidney is normal.
For 2 years now I am very weak in the body every muscle is weak i can't even barely walk down the street ring in ears nervousness before . Never got this in my whole life 40 years old please i need so much health the doctors think i'm depressed and psychic that i am not even weak but i am. l magnesium deficiency?? What magnesium to take their so many out there??
Look into low B12, b6,b2, B1, all causetit also.
@@MrRobkina thank you very much!!
@@Vbnklll how are you now?
Go to doctors for years and no one will go deeper as to why I can't store sodium, magnesium, and potassium. I gave up.
Have you heard about Gitelman's syndrome ?
Maybe it could be something like this.
You didn't mention excess vitamin d intake
You are so right! Thanks for reminding me!
Mahesh Gowda will that lower magnesium?
@@ericmartin9569 I experienced headache after taking 60k iu daily. Then stopped it for a week and headache disappeared and saw some videos where people experienced the same. It is obvious that anything you do in excess will create an imbalance for sure.
60 k daily? Who recommended you that much? Even the worst to worst deficiency you can't have that much. It can be dangerous.
I take 50,000 vitamin d weekly
The sever adverse effects of fluoroquinolones (toxicity),which deplete mg cam be the cause of its deficiency. I had the toxicity eight years ago after taking ciprofloxacin, and now having the mg deficiency.
Is this for medical students or does he think I know what homeostasis means?
Think balance.
like state, steady state, balanced state
Googling would have answered your question. Homeostasis is the normal state of your body. Imagine a fish tank full of water working and functioning as it should let’s just say that’s homeostasis. So, if the tank cracks or leaks homeostasis is lost. Injuries and illnesses disrupt homeostasis and that’s how people die…
Magnesium will cause decrease dopamine receptors?
Yes
@@crazikidgaming5326 how? I heard that magnesium will increase dopamine receptors. Pls reply
@@maheshtanay I need magnesium but have Dopamine irregularities
Do you know if they conflict
@@michelekisly2535 take some b12 and folate for dopamine production and other neurotransmitters. Folate is a cofactor for dopamine. Omega 3, vitamin b6, b12 , folate.
@@maheshtanay you know, about 4 years ago I had a blood test that my Psyche nurse interpreted and I had EXTREMELY LOW FOLATE. I bought a good suppliment because the script they gave me was inadequate. I took for quite a while and then stopped as I was discouraged with all my attempts at mental and physical health.
I will get some again and also Magnesium T.
Thanks for answering.
Check out dr.Carolyn dean a great leader in the field of magnesium
My magnesium little bit low
Over 600 enzymatic bodily functions not 300,but fairy good presentation
Hoping a magnesium supplement will stop my muscles fasticulations
please listen to me i had abdominal cramp for 30 years a friend told me to take magnesium daily what a miracle. believe me it stopped in 10 days. don't ignore this.
@@jackburga8103 what kind of magnesium? Or is it just magnesium alone
Pls share with us the kind of magnesium which has worked for you. Thank you .
I have to eat salt all day to help me also
Good lecture, especially when one considers how difficult it is for this person to talk.
And remember serum magnesium blood tests are not an accurate way to test magnesium deficiency. You need to order a magnesium RBC test.
Magnesium in excess gives deep seated, extremely painful cysts.
Do ur cysts go away when u stop taking magnesium?
@@tahaahmad7309 Yes, of course. I took magnesium supplements for something unrelated to skin care. Soon I developed really deep cysts that had to be opened surgically. As soon as I stopped the magnesium supplements, I no longer developed these deep cysts, and got a lot less normal acne as well. I've tried different types of magnesium, different doses, but it all inevitable leads to more acne and painful, deep seated cysts. A week without magnesium clears it completely.
guess you never heard of transdermal absorption....everyone should use magnesium oil spray... UPDATE: Magnesium cream is even better. only maker now is asutra 'melt pain away' safe for nightly before bed use for mag supplementation
I do!! Wow, what a difference, I slathered on magnesium get after day hiking trip & knew I was going to hurt soon after, so I put a bunch on my legs & arms & was going to rinse off after a half hour. I woke up 9 hours later, fully rested, no pain & actually feeling better than I did, before the hike. Im 55, I naively believed that chronic pain & ailments were a part of getting older.... no more, I feel way less pain & sleep like a baby at night. Topical magnesium even softened my skin, the bumpy skin I had near elbows went away ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗 💘
@@anitaevans5361 mag cream is even better. asutra brand makes it. 'melt pain away' is name. its fine to use nightly before bed. everyone needs mag daily! the older, fatter, sicker, bad diet you are the more you need. start off with a dollop on one finger before bed
Magnesium cream (asutra brand 'melt pain away' is only maker) is even better... use it before bed nightly (even tho its marketed as pain cream). mag regulates 400 processes in body, most important mineral no one gets enough of!
If those listed are the top sources of magnesium, it explains why i would be deficient. Yuck and ow
