hey guys I’m back and I created a

three-part series on magnesium and

calcium a very fascinating topic I’m

gonna start out with the basics and

we’re gonna focus on magnesium in this

video so magnesium is involved in over

300 enzymes enzymes are those proteins

that do to work in the body and they

help the body in its chemistry so

magnesium is a mineral that is a co

helper in a lot of different things

protein synthesis which basically making

protein hair nails muscle energy

production so magnesium is like the

spark plug that allows energy to be

created in the mitochondria that’s the

energy factor of the cell it’s also

involved in bone muscle nerve and

glucose carbohydrate metabolism you need

magnesium so if you’re deficient in

magnesium you get cramps those cramps

could be in your back and your legs and

your calves it could be even the

arteries and this is why if you’re

deficient in magnesium you can have high

blood pressure and your arteries become

stiff when you’re low in magnesium you

increase the risk of getting diabetes

why because magnesium is involved in

regulating insulin and preventing

insulin resistance okay it keeps insulin

check so if you’re low in magnesium

insulin resistance is worse okay in fact

if you take magnesium you’ll improve

insulin resistance to a certain degree

okay

kidney dysfunction you need magnesium to

make sure the kidney functions normally

if you’re deficient in magnesium you can

develop arrhythmias which is an abnormal

heart rhythm mitral valve prolapse if

you’re deficient insomnia increased

stress and anxiety and fatigue okay now

how do you become deficient in magnesium

one it’s from the diet you’re not

consuming enough greens okay at the

heart of deep leafy green vegetables you

have chlorophyll and magnesium is the

mineral involved in the chlorophyll

molecule it’s very similar in chemistry

to blood in blood you have iron and in

chlorophyll you have magnesium

okay so when you have too much calcium

in the body you can create a magnesium

deficiency and if you have instant

resistance you’re gonna be deficient

magnesium because you can’t absorb these

minerals so your glucose will stay a

little bit higher now when you consume

refined foods especially refined

carbohydrates you created a magnesium

deficiency and of course eating junk

food and drinking alcohol and sodas will

also deplete you of magnesium if you

have GI problems whether it’s an ulcer

or scar tissue in your gut or IBS you

won’t be able to absorb as much

magnesium if you had a gastric bypass

you won’t be able to absorb as much

magnesium also if you’re on medications

to lower acids or prevent the production

of acid as in anti acids that alone will

prevent the absorption of magnesium all

right in the next video part 2 we’re

going to talk about the relationship

between magnesium and calcium and

magnesium and potassium so if you want
