He was prescribed blood pressure lowereing Karveside to relax his bl. vessels, even though he didn&amp;#39;t have high b. pressure. A few yrs. later he&amp;#39;s gone off the meds. Can anyone tell me if he would benefit &amp;nbsp;from taking magnesium &amp;amp; how much? He won&amp;#39;t go to a naturopath.&lt;/p&gt;

Hopefully my vegetables will mean I will not need to supplement during my harvest!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I finally succeeded in persuading my husband to take supplements - one fish oil and one magnesium capsule daily after a health scare.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As the doctors did not refer him to an opthmologist even though I suspect Temporal arteritis - and the locum agreed - my husband was finally persuaded by the prospect of possible blindness or stroke. It has taken nearly 17 years to encourage him to finally take any supplements! &lt;/p&gt;

Transdermal absorption of magnesium chloride is a preferable alternative to the sulfate. &lt;/p&gt;

I now take it only once maybe twice a week and still feel great. &amp;nbsp;If your on thyroid tablets it says you should take it 2 hours either side of taking your thyroxine. Also &amp;nbsp;20 years ago Zinc was another mineral that stopped my 10 year stint of bulimia in its tracks, was so amazing. &amp;nbsp;A general Doctor told me I needed &amp;quot;will power&amp;quot; for &amp;nbsp;my bulimia!!!!!! no mention of &amp;nbsp;vitamins and minerals. &amp;nbsp;I guess back then BigPharma didn&amp;#39;t have the &amp;quot;will power tablet&amp;quot; for the Doctor to prescribe me.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;magnesium supplements which typically take 6 weeks to take effect. &amp;nbsp;I had&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a lot of anxiety for most of my life &amp;amp; nothing worked. &amp;nbsp;I took a simple foot bath&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;in MAGNESIUM CHLORIDE at night and it was gone the next day. &amp;nbsp;Transdermal&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;delivery is second only to IV injection only cheaper. &amp;nbsp;Google &amp;quot;Transdermal&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Magnesium&amp;quot; and no, I don&amp;#39;t sell it and yes, the effects will last at least 24 hrs&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;unlike Epsom salts. &amp;nbsp;Magnesium supplements take 6 weeks and are prone &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;to cause diarrhea. &amp;nbsp;Take them in small doses multiple times during the day.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;however, I do not take calcium supplements &amp;amp; cal/ mag supplements&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;never did a damn thing either way. &amp;nbsp;For heart conditions you might want to&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;do calcium with the MgCL2 which doesn&amp;#39;t cure anything it just goes where&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;it&amp;#39;s needed in the cells very fast. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;My doctor, who is an expert in Mitral Valve Prolapse and Dysautonomia, recommends 500 mg of magnesium oxide to all of her patients. &amp;nbsp;So don&amp;#39;t immediately discount the oxide form!! &amp;nbsp;It&amp;#39;s cheap and easy to find. &amp;nbsp;I get 200 tablets for about $6 at Walgreens. &amp;nbsp;I take 500mg a day normally, and an extra 250 if I&amp;#39;m hurting more than usual.&lt;/p&gt;

You can read the book by the nutririonist Robert Crayhon entitled &amp;quot; The Carnitine Miracle&amp;quot; He deals with a Carnitine cocktail to heal heart problems including arrythmias.&lt;/p&gt;
