Magnesium Saves Kittens from Shelter
September 8th, 2009 | 
Author: Carolyn Dean has this to share on her excellent blog:
I have a new Magnesium Miracle Story to start your week off. It’s from Bill, an asthma sufferer, in Florida. The “boys” he refers to are two new kittens he adopted recently…
I was having so much allergy/asthma trouble I was sure I would have to give these boys back to the shelter. That was making me sad.
Since beginning the magnesium supplements I have had very little trouble. A bit sniffly some days, but no asthma troubles at all.
Among the worst things that happen when you experience allergic symptoms that develop into an asthma attack is the anticipation — moment to moment – of what will happen with the next breath. For me, my lungs can close up in a matter of a few breathes. Air passages shut off… Very scary stuff.
It gets to where your entire existence is all about each breath, literally. Nothing else matters then.
I am happy to say I won’t have to deal with that any more and I will be able to keep these kittens!

Magnesium–The Miracle Mineral
I have always had a strong interest in nutrition but, like most people, have often been bewildered by the overwhelming amount of information and general lack of focus of what there is to be learned.
I take the GNC supplements for men over 50. It certainly has a lot of stuff in it, but in regard to two key minerals, even the GNC formula is deficient. These minerals are iodine and magnesium.
The American diet is seriously deficient in both these essential minerals. I plan to write about iodine later. For now, I want to focus on magnesium.
The array of bodily functions that can work normally only with sufficient magnesium is staggering. Every system of the body is affected, but most particularly the circulatory system. This is critical because every cell of the body depends on an adequate flow of blood.
Magnesium deficiency is implicated in cancer, heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, mental illness, kidney malfunction, fatigue, migraine, elevated cholesterol, liver ailments, and many other illnesses and conditions. Magnesium is routinely used by doctors in hospitals to treat heart attacks and illnesses associated with pregnancy. There it is administered intravenously in large doses. I have a friend who is a doctor who is researching the possibility of treating numerous chronic illnesses, cancer included, with large doses of magnesium sulphate. His idea is that the cause of many illnesses is hyperactivity of the body’s stress reaction and that magnesium can slow this reaction when it has gotten out of control.

“Top Ten Lists” of symptoms relieved by magnesium
Carolyn Dean, the author of the best selling book “The Magnesium Miracle” received the following:
A client sent me one of the best “Top Ten Lists” of symptoms relieved by magnesium I’ve ever seen. After three months on magnesium my client experienced:
- Less knee pain.
- Carbohydrate/sugar cravings down from 90 to 5 — on a scale of 100 (most) to 0 (none)
- Wrinkles and crevices in her face diminishing
- Dramatic reduction in “migraines”
- Period went from dark to bright red and from severe clots to minimal clots
- Able to exercise intensely for the first time in years without being exhausted for at least three days after
- Sleep has improved from “minimal” to “poor and restless” all night (this is a huge improvement for her).
- Able to “keep going” (to some extent) past 6:30pm at night.
- Less sound sensitivity/hypersensitivity.
- Better able to concentrate when someone is speaking to her (if there is any background noise).

The Nutritional Magnesium Association
I came across this site today. Here’s what they say about themselves:
Mission Statement
The mission of the NMA is to disseminate timely and useful information on the subject of nutritional magnesium so as to improve the lives of all people affected by the widespread deficiency of this mineral in our diets and the related health issues associated with this deficiency.
Our Philosophy
We believe that Magnesium is the one safe, inexpensive and simple nutrient that can prevent, treat, and reverse some of the most prevalent and serious health disorders that affect Americans today.
High blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, diabetes and many other chronic conditions can be attributed to deficiencies in magnesium. We will answer how magnesium deficiencies develop, why they are so widespread, and how they disrupt metabolic functions that ultimately threaten the health of virtually every bodily system.
Our goal is to help you understand the causes of these disorders as they relate to magnesium deficiencies, learn how to prevent these disorders and/or reverse them and thereby transform your health and avoid the need for prescription drugs.
While the mainstream medical community manages diseases and treats symptoms with expensive, synthetic and often harmful and addictive drugs which are pervasively marketed by the drug companies, we hope to help you avoid this prescription trap and live a more healthy life.
Magnesium Chloride in Acute and Chronic Diseases – by Raul Vergini,MD
Back in 1915, a French surgeon, Prof.Pierre Delbet,MD, was looking for a
solution to cleanse wounds, because he had found out that the traditional
antiseptic solutions actually mortified tissues and facilitated the
infection instead of preventing it
Empirical research proves that magnesium is essential for normal calcium management.
The Robert Cathey Research Source
Empirical research proves that magnesium is essential for normal calcium management. This indicates that magnesium deficiency may lead to inability both to absorb nutritional calcium; but also a disability in intrinsic calcium management. We believe that the body possesses a new class of enzymes we have termed ‘nucleonases’ for their ability to transfer protons or groups of protons and neutrons to create new elements from simpler ones.

Magnesium deficiency can affect virtually every organ system of the body.
Dr. Sidney Baker – “Magnesium deficiency can affect virtually every organ system of the body. With regard to skeletal muscle, one may experience twitches, cramps, muscle tension, muscle soreness, including back aches, neck pain, tension headaches and jaw joint (or TMJ) dysfunction. Also, one may experience chest tightness or a peculiar sensation that he can’t take a deep breath. Sometimes a person may sigh a lot.”
Magnesium – The Beautiful Mineral
Numerous studies over the past one hundred years have shown the human body needs Magnesium every day to be healthy. And it’s now a fact that we only get a small percentage from our diet, and approximately 80% of the world’s population is seriously deficient in Magnesium.
Magnesium & Depression Video
One of the benefits I found after only a week or so of getting more magnesium into my system, by using Magnesium chloride transdermally (in my case, using a footbath containing about 150 grams of magnesium chloride flakes dissolved in about 4 litres of water) was a stabilisation of what others had referred to over the years as my “moodiness”.
Here’s a video about the symptoms caused by magnesium deficiency, that Magnesium Chloride can eradicate.
Treating these symptoms can be very economical, if you make your own magnesium oil using the flakes I sell. You could of course, use a footbath like I did, but that may work out a little more expensive.

Magnesium – The Nutrient That Could Change your Life
Introduction
It is only recently that scientists have definitely established the existence of magnesium deficiency in man. For years medical reports stated that a person could obtain enough magnesium from food to keep his bones and cells healthy. Yet the more researchers learned about this mineral, the more they have come to realize that much ill health is due to existing magnesium deficiencies. Furthermore, they now know that since most people never eat enough of the magnesium-rich foods (nuts, seed foods, and green vegetables), the deficiency may well be universal.
the actions of nerves and muscles are impaired. Convulsions, dizziness, muscular weakness, weak teeth and bones, and nervous irritability have all been cited as features of magnesium deficiency. There are other conditions where magnesium deficiency may also be present yet difficult to detect because the overt symptoms are missing or masked.
The editor and staff of magazine have long been aware of the importance of magnesium in human nutrition. They have been greatly concerned because the public was serenely confident that it was getting enough of this valuable mineral. Time and time again they have called attention to the fact that this is not so. Now that the essentiality of this mineral and its widespread deficiency are both recognized, the time has come to put before the public the many vital metabolic roles of this one mineral and how to make certain you benefit by them.
If you want to understand the essential metabolic function of magnesium, to learn how a lack of this mineral nutrient affects the vital organs, and, most important of all, to learn how to prevent a deficiency in your own body, read on! The authors have drawn on voluminous research and years of study about this vital mineral to prepare this book for you. Their hope is that after reading it you will understand the relation of magnesium to physical and mental health, be aware of the symptoms of a magnesium deficiency and, first and foremost, be able to ensure an adequate supply of this essential mineral to your own body.
