Against cramps, constipation, loss of memory: the miracle weapon of Magnesium acts
Magnesium can be much more than previously thought. In the process, Magnesium is not the same as Magnesium. Some species are particularly good for constipation, other fatigue, and new Connections to enhance the memory power.
More Recently, Magnesium was considered “only” as a mineral that relieves it is effective against nocturnal leg cramps and muscle pain. In the meantime, it appears that Magnesium can be much more than relax the muscles. Effect profile is surprisingly diverse.
Perhaps the most interesting, current discovery: A specific magnesium compound, Magnesium-L-Threonate, can even pass the blood-brain barrier and weakness of memory offset. One study showed that under the influence of Magnesium-L-Threonate both the efficiency of short – term as well as long-time memory.
Magnesium-L-Threonate can be in the brain, new synapses sprouting
Connection or link between points in the prefrontal cortex and in the Hippocampus, the synapses had increased during the study, under the influence of this magnesium form can be proven. This switching often with advancing years are less and diseases such as Alzheimer’s, especially in the case of dementia is significantly reduced. The researchers hope that their discovery is a new, side-effect free way to prevention and perhaps even treatment of dementia found.
However, Magnesium-L-Threonate is still in German pharmacies, but easily in the Internet. Because it is a food Supplement, there is no Authorisation requirement.
The right forms of Magnesium for the various complaints
Depending on what problems or what you protect will be available, so for the prevention, the different magnesium compounds:
- Cramps, Constipation: Magnesium Citrate
- Heartburn, headaches, and migraine: magnesium carbonate, magnesium hydroxide, magnesium oxide
- Constipation: Magnesium Sulfate
- Fatigue, CFS, pain: magnesium malate
- Heart Weakness, Arteriosclerosis: Magnesiumorotat, Magnesium Taurate
- Fears, Stress, Sleep Disorders: Magnesium Glycinate
So it is quite reasonable to read when purchasing a mineral product the label carefully and make sure that the magnesium compound contains the product.
Pure Magnesium is not available, the mineral substance is extremely reactive and, therefore, always bound, for example Carbonates, Silicates or sulfates.
In case of doubt, magnesium citrate benefits
In General, supplementation with Magnesium is useful, because at least a quarter of men and a third of the women in Germany are supplied with the mineral. Experts even assume that the Figures are much higher. Who wants to make up for this deficiency, or to prevent, can be widely use products with magnesium oxide and citrate. These magnesium compounds are characterized by a particularly high bioavailability.
Meanwhile, there are also a number of products that offer different magnesium species as a complex, wherein the various Compounds are complementary in their effect makes sense.
Magnesium, no matter in what connection, improves General
- Nerve and muscle work,
- Energy conversion,
- Utilization of the glucose,
- Control of blood pressure and heart rhythm,
- Bone metabolism
- Synthesis of the antioxidant glutathione
Magnesium oil acts on the skin
Who do not want to use pills or effervescent tablets, can Dodge on magnesium chloride, with magnesium chloride. Especially to athletes and all who work physically a lot, so muscle soreness or muscle soreness, the light Massage with magnesium oil is rapidly relief. Because the body takes the minerals transdermal Magnesium acts in the place where it is desired.
Pay attention to the correct Magnesium amount
But Be Careful! Many dietary supplements contain a lot of Magnesium. An Overdose can cause people with sensitive to diarrhea and gastrointestinal discomfort. Experts from the consumer advice centre surveyed in the past year, 42 magnesium preparations. Of these, 17 products exceeded the recommended daily dose of 350 milligrams for men and 300 milligrams for women. Most of the contained 400 milligrams per Serving, some of them even significantly more.
Conclusion
Magnesium is a particularly versatile mineral that can be against a whole series of complaints apply not only to oral and, thus, systemically, but also locally. New magnesium compounds are particularly interesting, as the example of Magnesium-L-shows Threonate. Maybe in the future might be an Option in the case of the still little successful prevention and treatment of dementia diseases such as Alzheimer’s.
