Magnesium - The Natural Chill Pill

I've been taking magnesium capsules ( 1 per day) for a few years now to combat painful leg cramps that woke me up at night.... particularly after a hard days' slog in the garden during hot weather.

I rarely get cramps now and on the odd occasion that I do.... maybe after knocking myself out stupid by working too hard in the heat, I take just one capsule & it goes to work and brings relief in minutes.

I'm not sure how magnesium works for human diabetics but it is one of the first "go to's" for horses with Type II Diabetes. There are different types of magnesium the most common being Magnesium Oxide.

It works on one of my horses but not the other one.

Mag Ox with a combo of certain vitamins is also working on my horse with environmental allergies and a personality disorder. I've had that horse 17 of his 19 years and could shoot myself for not sooner recognizing he's had a mineral deficiency all this time. He's a completely different and one thousand times improved horse since I started him on Remission for horses. And doesn't that make you wonder how many children with personality disorders just might have a severe mineral deficiency and much off their problems would go away by finding out what that deficiency is, as opposed to pumping them full of drugs?????

Don't take my word for it because I only researched Magnesium as it applies to insulin resistant horses. Google "magnesium for humanType II diabetes" and see what comes up.

You're right TWHRider, looks like it's good for the prevention and treatment of Type 2 diabetes, thanks for pointing that out! :) http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/early/2010/08/30/dc10-0994.abstract

PS: magnesium malate is good for fibromyalgia, I have a friend that reported it helped a lot.
 
magnesium is one of the best minerals for any dibetic, magnesium glycinate is a good form for absorbtion,in capsules it can be opened and the powder put on the tip of your tounge, to releave muscle cramps instantly, if it dosen't work instantly you need potassium also. muscle cramps are your body giving you a sign that you need magnesium. magnesium relaxes muscles,your heart is a muscle, i always carry magnesium in case someone has a heart attack. type 2 dibetic also need the trace minerals chromium and vanadium.
 
I tried taking the magnesium tablets. They gave me rather explosive diarrhoea! Of course, horses for courses. Some can benefit from a supplement, other's can't.
