🧬✨ 6 SIGNS YOUR BODY IS CRAVING MAGNESIUM ✨🧬

If you have +2 of these symptoms...

- THREAD -

You ARE SCREWED.

You see from all nutrients needed by the body, by FAR magnesium:

- Has the biggest impact & ROI
- Is the most involved (+1K enzimatic processes)
- And is the most important one

In this thread Alli will reveal you 7 BIG symptoms of MAG DEFICIENCY.

Ready? Listo?

Yo también. LES. GOOOOO.

1) ANXIETY & DEPRESSION ☔️

If you’ve been feeling low recently...

You NEED (and are really craving) MAGNESIUM NOW.

Of all neurotransmitters, there are 2 that have an ENORMOUS impact on:

- Your Sleep
- And your Mood

1. G.A.B.A., which will...

- Relax
- Calm
- And “slow down” your nervous system and mind

2. GLUTAMATE, which will...

- Excite you
- Trigger Overthinking
- Raise awareness & that “wake” feeling (like insomnia)

Guess which one will cause you ANXIETY and DEPRESSION?

YEP. GLUTAMATE. So how does mag helps?

• Magnesium BLOCKS the GLUTAMATE receptors (NMDA),

hence deactivating & inhibiting it’s exciting effects

letting you relax, buT ALSO!...

• Mag triggers GABA, it binds to its receptors and ACTIVATES them & converts GLUTAMATE into GABA

hence, a Mag deficiency will cause your BRAIN to stay in that “ON” & wired mode,

AKA:

Glutamate dominant mode

The result?

ANXIETY. DEPRESSION. WEAKNESS.

But also...

2) INSOMNIA/SLEEP ISSUES 🌙

If your brain is rushing, overthinking & unable to turn itself off...

(thx to high glutamate)

Do you think that it’ll let you sleep & relax?

yea neither do i

Also,

Magnesium is ESSENTIAL for ACTIVATING...

- THE VAGUS NERVE

A key part of your Parasympathetic Nervous System

AKA: the part of your NS that relaxes u, lowers stress hormones & makes u feel good m8

when the Vagus Nerve gets activated, the PNS gets activated too

and vice versa. they’re like homies. one is not ok without the other.

so if there’s low MAG

your body will have a pretty hard time trying to ACTIVATE the PNS & VN

So combine:

- Low GABA
- High Glutamate
- Low Vagus Nerve & PNS Activity

CONGRATS! You have the perfect recipe for anxiety & insomnia 😸👍👍👍👍

And also, for...

3) FATIGUE or easily fatigued 🥱

What you call “ATP” or “ENERGY”, in reality is...

“Mag-ATP”!!

The USEFUL & BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE ATP...

ITS BINDED TO MAGNESIUM.

When MAG it’s binded to ATP...

Allows ATP to chelate (“join”) to proteins, enzymes & cells.

Hence, allowing ATP to do its job; provide cellular energy

In sinple words

Magnesium allows ATP to work

So you’re not fatigued.

YOU ARE MAGNESIUM DEFICIENT.

4) VITAMIN D & CALCIUM DEFICIENCY

wait whAT?

You are supplementing with Hormone D but... aren’t seeing its miracles?

Here’s why:

YOU. ARE. MAGNESIUM. DEFICIENT. 😡😡😡😡

(yeah vitamin d is an hormone wow)

Magnesium ACTIVATES:

- 25-hydroxylase
- 1 Alpha Hydroxylase
- 24-hydroxylase

AKA: Enzymes that convert Vitamin D to its USEFUL & ACTIVE FORM

And Vitamin D allows Calcium to be absorbed, so

double trouble amigo 😂👎👎👎👎

It won’t matter how much Vit D or Calcium you’re getting

LOW MAGNESIUM

WILL ALWAYS MEAN LOW VITAMIN D & CALCIUM

That’s why in research papers Vit. D supps don’t raise VitD levels

ps:

will make another thread on vit D deficiency symptoms,

5) MUSCLE CRAMPS, HBP, HEADACHES, ARRHYTMIAS, 🩸💪

This is a sinple one

Your muscle cells use CALCIUM as a cofactors for energetic functions, such as...

- Nerve Impulses
- Cell transportation
- Muscle contractions (!!!)

Since Ca is EXCITATORY...

It’ll ONLY enter to your cells when required for a specific action (i.e. muscle contraction 💪)

After that takes place

- MAGNESIUM activates Calcium TRANSPORTERS to pump it out of the cell

bUT!

If you don’t have enough MAG...

Calcium will stay there.

Over exciting your muscle cells.

Causing a beautiful CRAMP.

It also can cause arrhytmias and high blood pressure & headaches

Since MAG is a vasodilator & lets muscle relax

6) ASTHMA/RESPIRATORY ISSUES 🫁

For the same reason mentioned above (calcium & vasodilation)

But also, since MAG

Is a BRONCHODILATOR (relaxes lung’s muscles), which will increase air & 🩸 flow to your lungs,

hence improving its function

and another reason that mag can cause DEPRESSION & INSOMNIA is that

it ENHANCES SEROTONIN & MELATONIN production

Since it supports its production cycle, @drjamesdinic:

“ok prince Alli, i’m mg deficient. best food sources?”

- CACAO (150-200mg in 30g)

- HEMP SEEDS (300mg in 30g!!)

- SPIRULLINA & CHLORELLA (don’t know but they’re in the same range as hemp & cacao)

- COOKED (!!!) LEAFY GREENS

If don’t cooked, they’ll have OXALATES & PHYTATES

which will fuck mag & other minerals absorption

and your gut & kidneys too

other considerable sources are

avocado, tuna, seafood, pumpkin seeds, beets,

“king Alli, screw eating I want a supp”
