    MAGNESIUM, what it's needed for: Everything. Likely most of us is deficient.
  

*by L***T on Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2010*

For me, the most important insights from of this book were:  1. How particular drugs used for various ailments deplete magnesium, which is needed to cure the ailment.  As Dr. Dean says, we aren't deficient in drugs; we're deficient in nutrients, especially magnesium. 2.  How magnesium is counteracted by especially calcium and phosphorus, but also by fluoride, aspartame, and other ingested products. A visit to Dr. Dean's web site confirmed what I have believed for quite a while, that it is vital that Magnesium's intake be higher than Calcium (and other minerals).Before purchasing THE MAGNESIUM MIRACLE, I read the editorials and the 29 customer reviews posted on the Amazon buying page. That collection provides an excellent synopsis of this book; instead of repeating what's been said, I'll focus on personal reactions to this life saving information.I wanted to read a detailed, reliable source on the symptoms, causes, and cures of magnesium deficiency, and I wanted to read it on my 
  
Kindle Wireless Reading Device







  
  
     (with its in-house dictionary and free Google capacity for searches). I also wanted to learn how to get magnesium absorbed and functioning, and to learn about varieties and effectiveness of oral and transdermal applications of this mineral, which I had believed for decades to be one of the most vital nutrients. Over the years I had periodically taken oral tablets and worked to get high magnesium foods into my diet, but I had never felt adequate results from either of those methods. I was also curious about how magnesium deficiency could be tested accurately, since I had read that blood tests give misleading readings.All the above and more was covered in easily comprehensible detail from the general chapters which I read first, deciding to focus on those before the chapters specific to certain diseases, especially the conditions I hadn't developed. (For background on that see my review of 
  
Swanson Ultra Magnesium Oil 8 fl oz (237 ml) Spray







  
  
    ). From the general chapters I learned about varieties of oral and transdermal forms of magnesium and how they compared as effective sources of elemental magnesium.*I learned that a simple saliva test for Mg level adequacy could expose much more than a basic blood test, and why. I learned a bit about the history of magnesium studies and uses.What surprised me was how much useful information I found in the chapters on different diseases, about how they are caused by magnesium deficiency, aggravated by drugs prescribed specifically to each ailment, and cured by having magnesium retained and working properly within cell structures.One part of the book I question slightly [for myself] is the recommendation to follow a diet regimen. [Update: 2/26/10: Recent info from Dr. Dean indicates she is currently advising a more individually intuitive approach to food choices, moving away from what she terms dietary dogma, to which I say, "YES!" Check her web site blog.]Prior to reading this book, I had studied which foods are high in magnesium, and Dr. Dean's information contributed well to that background. What I've learned through Google searches recently, however, is that many Mg rich foods are also high in calcium and phosphorus, minerals which, if present in excess can defeat magnesium from being absorbed or used. Some of this was detailed in previously read books like 
  
Obesity Cancer & Depression: Their Common Cause & Natural Cure







  
  
    .Dr. Dean explains how magnesium can be defeated if other minerals are too high in comparative percentages, and how our soils have been depleted of magnesium. At the same time, magnesium experts strongly push dietary recommendations. My concern is that it's nearly impossible to know the percentages of magnesium to calcium, phosphorus, and other Mg depletion agents in the foods I specifically purchase, prepare, and swallow. Pro and con arguments can be read on every health issue related to foods (or related to anything, for that matter). I've read reports which give opposite information on a particular food being high or low in magnesium (or in increasing acidity or alkalinity in one's system).  Some foods recommended for magnesium content are listed elsewhere for low bio-availability of that magnesium content.In view of the contradictions of nearly every food promoted as a cure all in one study and a death warrant in another, and due to my belief that we were given taste buds for a reason, I had long ago decided that the best way to health for me was to avoid "medicine" as much as possible and to eat what sounds good at the time of being ready to eat, then savor the flavor.  I follow cravings, yet am observant enough to discriminate healthy vs. unhealthy cravings. Basically, a healthy craving satisfies without the need to gorge, and an unhealthy craving never seems to get any type of satisfaction, even when I eat enough to be "stuffed." I've noticed that I crave a certain food for a while, eat it regularly, feel satisfied with a reasonable amount, then suddenly one day feel I don't want that food any more. When I do Google searches on what a craved food contains, I see how that food filled a temporary deficiency. There are studies pro and con on salts, various types of fats, sugars, coffees, teas, flours, etc. I don't avoid any of those foods because I don't believe they are harmful unless or until I begin to have a distaste of them, which I have at times, in which case I avoid that food. Determining what will nourish comes through my tongue and palate.Even so, I continue to study what foods contain and to read pros and cons on their potential value or detriment, then make up my own mind. Especially during evening meals, I tend to eat leafy green vegetables and fruits because I believe they are generally healthy, but mostly because I like them and they satisfy.  I like most of the foods Dr. Dean lists as good Mg sources, and which I had read before as being such.  However, most mornings in my current habit I have coffee, a cinnamon roll with (real) butter, and bacon (cured with heavenly natural SALT brine instead of phosphates or citric acid, etc.).The only supplement I take, orally or transdermally is magnesium.Calcium is abundant in many foods which I and most people eat frequently by taste rather than by prescribed diet, and through interjection in prepared foods due to the past decade's belief, with the best intentions, that Calcium is the Olympian mineral. After taking magnesium by tablet and transdermal applications for several months, my body is still working to rid itself of calcium deposits. I love dairy products, but have cut back on them slightly, and will not begin eating cheese freely again until I the magnesium presence in my system elevates to what it needs to be.Possibly what I admire most about Dr. Dean is that, as wise and well studied and experienced as she is she doesn't suffer from a Goddess complex.  She has admitted on her web site (not in these words, but to this effect) that she realizes she might discover along the way that what she believed yesterday, based on what seemed to be the best science, might be proven wrong today... and that what she believed to be harmful yesterday might be proven the first true futuristic "snake oil."Only one thing is certain, for me. MAGNESIUM is the INDEX! And given current cultural conditions, transdermal is a KEY. Related to that, I highly recommend this book, too:
  
Transdermal Magnesium Therapy: A New Modality for the Maintenance of Health







  
  
    I agree with other reviews which have noted:  Everyone would do well to read THE MAGNESIUM MIRACLE, especially medical professionals. Dr. Dean, you're doing a great good for the human race. I salute you!Linda Shelnutt*[I feel that that all the evidence is not yet in on bioavailability, and believe that Dr. Dean would agree there. Though transdermal application seems to be getting results quicker than oral, I still prefer 
  
Magnesium Oxide Powder 8 Ounces







  
  
     as my source of oral mg. Mag oxide might not be as good a choice for others, though, because it can cause a type of diarrhea in higher doses. In my unique situation that aspect appears to be working multiple benefits for me in vital ways which I'd like to record at some point.]

*by D***M on Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2014*

Where have I been my whole life? under a rock? .Maybe the information was what was hidden, not me-but none-the-less,This BOMBSHELL necessity for health and overall balanced nutrition has been eluding me for years even after extensive research! NOW I CAN BREATHE-I feel like I have that missing piece. I think this is the information I needed to complete my life's health goals-information that would have GREATLY helped me my WHOLE LIFE! After reading this book-just the intro-I saw everyone I knew flashing through my thoughts along with their various ailments that were so obviously deficiencies instead of chronic diseases as they believed! I reached out to my family and friends the next day when I finished the book and suggested they all read it-take magnesium and if they didn't I'd buy the book for them and possibly the magnesium too.I've been actively taking natural calm since I got morning sickness a month into my pregnancy- it only took a day for the symptoms to completely subside! I got a tip on pinterest about magnesium and morning sickness and thank God I did! I had AWFUL morning sickness with my first pregnancy, I had every sort of complication-I started keeping a journal out of disbelief at how miserable all my symptoms were! I felt cheated and lied to by all these women-my mother included-that told me how easy and symptom free their pregnancies had been. I was just miserable! Yet-here I am pregnant again-I've been on a healthy diet (Weston A Price style as mentioned in the book- also think 'nourishing traditions' recipe book) since the beginning of 2013 and since the advent of taking the magnesium have had an INCREDIBLE, AWESOME, near-SYMPTOMLESS pregnancy so far (4&1/2 months now) I have added epsom salts and magnesium chloride flakes to my biweekly baths for almost a year now too.The author recommends GOOD dietary advice and guidelines, minutely different than my own, but so appropriate for almost everyone to improve their health aside from magnesium supplementation. LISTEN to her dietary recommendations! Similar guidelines and diet has changed me from miserable to in awe of my health and vitality! I feel better than I ever did and I'm pregnant!This book resonated with me since it directly affects nearly everyone I know/knew as well as me! I personally have struggled with irritability and anger issues since I can remember-10, 12? I always worried it was because I might be bipolar/had a bad relationship with my dad who is bipolar(really probably just magnesium deficient but BIPOLAR is his official diagnosis)...but since taking magnesium-I am sooooo mellow-my husband noticed within a week of me taking natural calm-how easy to deal with I had become. I have had so many deficiency symptoms-I am so glad to know how I can eliminate them and provide my children with enough magnesium for healthy growth and maximum genetic development!My favorite qoute--probably because it has been stated often in much of the health literature I've been reading-is"the most important environment surrounding genes is the co-factor for biochemical processes--vitamins and minerals"I believe we are not at the mercy of our family's "hereditary" ailments-that with proper nutrition and supplementation, our (children's) genes will develop to their full potential, safe-guarding them from the deteriorating health we or our relatives experience. This information feels like the final huge puzzle piece in my research for optimum health per generations of examples in traditional cultures. Now, Knowing intricacies about vitamins and interactions and amounts and absorption information about magnesium-I feel EMPOWERED to reign in the health in my home-for myself and my children!This book relays very advanced information on so many fronts-it may have been simpler to write a book about what magnesium doesn't do and can't help. The specificity in certain conditions-such as the recommendations for supplementation and dietary guidelines per specific type of deficiency and the inclusion of unusual treatments-such as magnesium in the ear for deafness due to calcification (something my sister was getting surgery for in a month but is now going to attempt to resolve with magnesium) exceeded my expectation in an informational book about magnesium's processes in the body. The high dose vitamin D information really stood out as I have really been trying to boost my vitamin D-but had NO idea I needed magnesium to supplement it! I immediately ordered ionic magnesium for my son, husband and I. I truly appreciate how much ground the book covered and how persistent the author is in updating her information, revising it and adding to her knowledge-therefore our knowledge. I personally am disappointed when I read a great book but its information/statistics and cultural climate are so outdated. Authors who take the time to write such important information once, should endeavor to maintain its legitimacy/legacy by remaining current as this author has done so well. We are all lucky this author continues her efforts to help us all.Let me just finish and stop rambling by saying that this book will teach you how much magnesium does for everyone, how you can benefit now from using it, what kind to use, offers you encouragement and information to take control of your health, provides excellent nutritional sources and advice; its the knowledge you have been living without that could save your life-and at the very least improve it. It doesn't preach, it doesn't postulate, it won't guilt trip you or make you feel stupid, it doesn't skirt uncomfortable issues-its about RELAYING MEDICAL FACTS and HELPING YOU in your quest for better health!Magnesium isn't patented, comes in many forms/applications, it isn't terribly expensive, it can be added into any lifestyle and should never be ignored or taken for granted again!Updates: Since taking ionic

    magnesium for just 2 weeks in addition to my baths and magnesium oil & lotion, I have noticed diminished fatigue (like hardly anything when I usually get super sore and exhausted) when I do lots of hard yard work, my usually (nomatter the weather, season) dry lips which always have dry, chapped skin are smooth and hydrated. The other night, I woke up with leg cramps (after consuming lots of sugar) and used magnesium oil/took some ionic magnesium, and they completely prevented any further cramping...a fungal infection which causes my scalp and face to peel has subsided- no more flaky hair line...I have all sorts of little differences in my life I never expected to change or knew what caused them.You really have no idea what you're missing out on until you read this book and take magnesium/restore your mag levels.

*by T***C on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 2, 2016*

Excellent reference book and very enlightening.  I did not realise just how many minor (and some major) ailments are due to magnesium levels being too low in your body.  Depression, constipation, bone health to name but a few.  I was always very healthy (or so I thought) until I was diagnosed with Cancer  a few years ago and the chemotherapy really messes with your body health.  Since finishing chemo I have found the whites of my eyes looked yellow and unhealthy, my metabolism has slowed down and my digestion sluggish, my skin looked unhealthy and I had developed osteopenia in my lower spine which causes pains from time to time.  I lack the energy I used to have and generally felt unwell and unable to recover to my pre-chemo state.  I struggled on like this for 2 years until I discovered this book as Magnesium was recommended by a friend.  All I can say is WOW!  magnesium really does work miracles.  I now take daily does of Magnesium, Vitamin C, D and Calcium and since doing so my eyes look clearer and healthier, my digestion system is performing better, my skin looks pink rather than grey, my hair seems shinier and my insomnia is better though not completely cured.Read this book and you may think it's just another snake-oil seller situation because its claims may seem too good to be true but I for one think it is better to try natural methods before resorting to drugs.  Modern day diets and environments have a terrible effect on the body - most of which we are simply unaware of but often times simple remedies like this really can work wonders.  I got the book first, was not entirely sure if it would help but I tried these

     as the book will tell you if you want to strengthen bones, you need to ensure your calcium levels are good too and the body needs Vit D to help absorb the Calcium.  I was taking Calcium and Vit D provided on prescription after chemo but still had backaches.For me the fact that I could actually see a difference in my eyes in particular after starting on Magnesium and  secondly, I have only twice had lower back twinges in the last year since taking magnesium made it more noticable that it was magnesium doing that.You need to read this book to see what applies to you but you will be amazed at how such a cheap and basic ingredient can help your body.
