MAGNESIUM IN MANAGEMENT OF HEART DISEASE & STROKES

admin — Sun, 14 Nov 2010 15:42:23 +0000

Magnesium is undoubtedly the most essential element in the prevention and treatment of heart disease and strokes. It has been established that people suffering from heart problems have very low magnesium and high calcium levels in their bodies. High calcium levels and insufficient magnesium lead to a narrowing and hardening of arteries reducing their elasticity at the same time, which increases blood pressure and a risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Atherosclerosis, the condition which involves calcium deposits in the arterial walls, is closely linked to magnesium deficiency. Not only magnesium relaxes and dilates arteries, it also lowers cholesterol deposits by removing their major component – calcium – from the fatty plaques in the arterial walls, thus normalising blood pressure and reducing the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

There is extensive research showing that when patients with coronary heart disease are treated with high doses of magnesium injections, their survival rate increases dramatically.

Worldwide, the intake of magnesium has decreased and that of calcium has increased – due to a high use of fertilisers high in calcium and low in magnesium, and general depletion of soils of magnesium. This (and other factors, such as unhealthy diet and lifestyle) has resulted in the unprecedented increase in the number of people suffering from heart-related and circulatory problems. Potassium (coming from fertilisers) is thought to be another culprit leading to magnesium-depleted soils and, as a result, a catastrophic reduction of magnesium in our diets.

Areas where the soil is low in calcium and potassium and high in magnesium show a much lower rate of conditions connected with magnesium deficiency, and this of course includes heart disease.

In her article “MAGNESIUM IN ONCOGENESIS AND IN ANTI-CANCER TREATMENT: INTERACTION WITH MINERALS AND VITAMINS”, Mildred S. Seelig, M.D., M.P.H. says about the risk of mortality from cardiovascular disease:

“Greater morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease is directly correlated with water softness and diet. Metabolic balance studies, with normal young adults on their usual diets, show that the lesser American Mg intake by adults, causing negative Mg balance, than in the Orient, correlates with the much higher death rate from ischemic heart disease (IHD) in the USA. Most American diets provide less than 70% of the 1980 recommended dietary allowance (RDA) of Mg. Experimental and clinical studies, and epidemiologic findings indicate that it is Mg, rather than Ca, that protects against IHD, myocardial infarcts and sudden unexpected cardiac death caused by arrhythmias.”

Levels of magnesium can be increased very quickly using Transdermal Magnesium Therapy. This involves massaging or spraying magnesium oil on the body regularly. Such applications help to replenish magnesium levels by-passing digestion which is not always a reliable medium for magnesium supplementation, due to a not always efficient digestive system, as well as magnesium being a laxative. If an excessive amount is taken this can cause dairrhoea and more magnesium loss than gain. For this reason the skin has proved the best and safest self-regulatory medium for magnesium absorption – it won’t take more magnesium than is essential for the body.

Transdermally, magnesium can also be administered in baths, foot baths and compresses. For a bath I suggest using magnesium flakes as the more economical way to achieve the best concentration. Use about 500g of magnesium chloride flake in a bath, and 250g in a foot bath. Such procedures are most beneficial before bed time, since deep relaxation resulting from and increase of magnesium in the body will certainly promote sleep.

Magnesium and Inflammation

Dr. Michael Eades has this to say about Magnesium and inflammation:

The lipid hypothesis of heart disease is rapidly being supplanted by the inflammatory hypothesis, which, for my money, is much more on the mark. The researchers who have spent their careers doing cholesterol research are not going down without a fight, however. Whereas most of the speakers at medical conferences always used to show graphs demonstrating that as cholesterol levels went up, so did the risk for heart disease. Now most speakers are showing graphs demonstrating that elevated cholesterol in combination with an elevated C-reactive protein (a measure of inflammation) is a better gauge of heart disease risk. I predict that over the next few years, the cholesterol part of these graphs will slowly disappear.

As the inflammatory hypothesis becomes more accepted, more and more physicians will be checking C-reactive protein levels along with a few other inflammatory yardsticks to determine the inflammatory status of their patients. If the C-reactive protein level is found to be elevated, then steps can be taken, not just to reduce the C-reactive protein, but to treat the underlying inflammation so that the C-reactive protein a marker of this underlying inflammation will normalize.

One easy step in the inflammation reduction process is to make sure magnesium intake is high. (emphasis mine)

And here is another article on the subject:

Magnesium – The Anti-Inflammatory Mineral

Tuesday, November 24, 2009 – Byron Richards, CCN

A new study of 3,713 postmenopausal women shows that magnesium is a powerful anti-inflammatory nutrient. Each 100 mg of magnesium per day was associated with a significant reduction in various inflammatory markers.

Magnesium is the most lacking mineral in the human diet. This is due primarily to Big Agribusiness farming practices that have stripped our soils of vital minerals needed for human health. It is complicated by processed diets lacking in magnesium-containing fresh fruits and vegetables. When you consider that inflammation is behind almost all health problems the consequence of eating a magnesium deficient diet becomes obvious.

The study showed that inflammatory markers such as CRP (C-reactive protein), TNFa (tumor necrosis factor alpha), and IL6 (interleukin 6) were all reduced when magnesium intake was higher. These are common inflammatory markers that are often elevated with the diseases of aging.

Furthermore, various inflammatory markers relating to the walls of arteries were also reduced when magnesium was adequate. Inflammation on the lining of the arteries is required for plaque formation. Reducing such inflammation is highly protective to arterial health.

It is not a stretch to say that if public health officials did nothing other than ensure vitamin D and magnesium sufficiency the entire health of a nation would be drastically improved and health care costs would be significantly lower.

Overview of Magnesium Oil

admin — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 08:19:35 +0000

Dr. Shealy has stated that once anyone commences regular use of Magnesium Oil, the aging process has stopped and true age reversal has begun. Since we have stopped aging, time is no longer working against us. This brings about an incredible peace of mind and body.

Appropriate testing for magnesium and DHEA levels before and after regular magnesium oil use, even for a couple of months, will demonstrate dramatic elevations in both. Finally, with magnesium oil, you can significantly affect the many symptoms of magnesium deficiency, including such systemic conditions as osteoporosis. Reports indicate that after prolonged use of magnesium oil, clients with serious bone density issues have rebuilt bones so dense that they would be difficult to drill into and yet they remain flexible.

We will all eventually regain the optimum level of DHEA we had at about age 23. They have made the observation that when we get our DHEA levels to where they were 10, 15 or 20 years ago, we will very likely look and feel like we did 10, 15, or 20 years ago and, incidentally, many of the symptoms that crept into our lives during the last 10, 15, or 20 years will likewise disappear.

Using magnesium oil, truly astounding things can happen. Some people have reported the regrowth of deteriorated bone, cartilage, and even a regeneration of enamel on their teeth. Teeth have developed a pearly translucence as a result of regular brushing with magnesium oil. These same teeth became so hard that a dentist would have had trouble drilling into themÃ¢â‚¬Â¦ in the event that was ever required.

More frequently, sufferers of arthritis in its many forms have turned to magnesium oil for near-instant relief from pain. Long term users of magnesium oil have experienced an improvement in the health of their bones, ligaments, and the afflicted joints. Of important note is the use of magnesium oil by sufferers of fibromyalgia, who often enjoy quick relief of this crippling pain.

For skin, magnesium oil may be used to rejuvenate wrinkled or damaged skin. Greying hair can be fed back to health by massaging magnesium oil into it each evening and left on overnight. Even bald or balding areas of the scalp have a chance of recovery when infused with this powerful mineral. This can also be applied to age spots. To induce the healing of scar tissue, massage essential oils frankincense, myrrh, and magnesium oil into the scar.

The heart, circulatory system, and nervous system all depend heavily on magnesium. Any application of magnesium will feed all of these. More specifically, spraying magnesium oil directly over the heart, into the arm pits, behind the knees, and onto the tops of the feet will increase the coverage and whole body reception of magnesium.
