Whole Body/Systemic Effects of Magnesium (abbreviated as Mg):
- Energy! Magnesium is a Crucial part of ALL Energy-Producing Enzymes in the Mitochondria and those that Break down Glucose & Fats to make Energy (ATP).
Also involved in Blood Sugar Regulation & Balance (which helps supply fuel for energy production).
- Rejuvenation/Restoration: Improves sleep efficiency, deep sleep & total sleep time while reducing sleep
- Healing & Repair: Regulation of Balanced inflammation is vital to healing & maintenance.
- Metabolism (the balance between catabolic & anabolic processes): Vital for the Catabolic breakdown of glucose & fat, and the Anabolic synthesis of Proteins, DNA, RNA, Enzymes & Endogenous Antioxidants.
Mg also helps to regulate other Key Minerals that are cofactors in hundreds of Enzymes that regulate metabolism & health, including Calcium, Phosphorus, Manganese, Iodine, Sodium, Potassium, Zinc & Copper.
As previously stated, Mg helps to Balance Blood Sugar (a key component of a balanced metabolism).
- Deficiency is associated with: Fatigue, Low ATP production, Reduced thyroid function (via low io- dine uptake), Low Telomerase activity, Impaired Fertility, Hair Loss, and Heat Sensations.
Magnesium’s Roles in the Brain & Nervous System:
- Reduces Brain Inflammation. 2. Alleviates Depression. 3. Calms the Nervous System. 4. Relieves Pain. 5. Increases Neuroplasticity.
- Improves GABA levels. 7. Stabilizes Cortisol. 8. Balances Blood Sugar. 9. Mg is a glutamate (NMDA) antagonist & a GABA agonist; both help to relax the CNS. Deficiency = upset brain function.
Magnesium in Heart Health & Circulation:
1.The heart has a 20X greater concentration of Mg than other tissues. 2. This helps to restrict calcium from the heart, which prevents or minimizes heart spasms that can obviously be fatal. 3. Regulates smooth muscles of the blood vessels to enhance circulation & regulate blood pressure. 4. Regulates cholesterol production. Deficiency is associated with Cardiovascular Disease & heart arrhythmias.
Magnesium & Muscles: (the largest organ system in the body)
- Allows muscles to move efficiently & relax properly.
- Helps relieve muscle cramping and
- Relaxes smooth muscles such as bronchioles & arteriole,s crucial for optimum oxygenation of all tissues; Relaxes uterine muscle.
Deficiency is associated with muscle spasms, cramping, decreased exercise tolerance, fibromyalgia, & fatigue.
Magnesium’s Roles in Bones, Joints, & Ligaments:
- Helps regulate calcium & contributes to strong bones &
- Helps to excrete excess calcium to prevent pathological
- Crucial for the strength & integrity of joints &
Magnesium & the Bowels: Helps to regulate intestinal tone and is vital for proper bowel evacuation.
Stressors known to increase Magnesium needs: Stress of all types (physical, mental, environmental), pregnancy, prenatal stress, exercise, sweating, increased anabolic activity (building muscle, recovering from illness, injury, or intense exercise).
‘I’d like to introduce you to two revolutionary magnesium products that I formulated, Mag 10X and Mito Energy. Mag 10X contains and converts to 10 different forms of magnesium in a base of Organic Baobab (the King of Superfruits) to optimize absorption and utilization. Mito Energy is Mag 10X plus a comprehensive B-complex.
Mag-10X and Mito-Energy Mag 10X are the Next Generation of magnesium supplementation. It boosts 10 different forms of magnesium in the body by significant amounts. Various organs and cell types use different forms better than others. It is in a powdered form to allow for more precise dosing
while avoiding all of the negative side effects & substances used in tablets & capsules. Additionally, it is in a whole, superfood base of Organic Baobab, the King of Superfruits, from the Tree of Life. One scoop provides 700+mg of Mg. As with any Mg, if you consume too much, too quickly, it will cause loose stools as Mg relaxes the walls of the GI tract & colon. The best way to use this product is to put it in purified water or coconut water and to drink it over 60-90+ minutes. This can be done as often as desired to meet your unique Mg needs.
Mito-Energy is Mag 10X plus a comprehensive B-Complex blend that contains 3 forms of Vitamin. B1. As you learned, Mg is involved in over 500 different enzymatic reactions; many of those reactions, including all those that make energy in the Mitochondria, also require several B vitamins, which is why we combined them in Mito-Energy. The same recommendations apply; however, it may be best to split up your dose of Mito-Energy and take 1/3 to 1 scoop 2 to 4 times per day. Since B vitamins are water soluble and not stored, this ensures that they are available throughout the day.
