MAGNESIUM CONCENTRATE
Magnesium is essential to life, found in every living cell and involved in every physiological process we rely on to live. It works in partnership with calcium in many physiological functions including nervous and cardiovascular processes and bone-building. Our energy currency is called ATP, and magnesium is essential for its production and utilization. Magnesium plays a vital role in the contraction and relaxation of muscles, including skeletal muscles, as well as those of the gastrointestinal tract, and muscles regulating blood flow, blood pressure and breathing passages.
The heart is a muscle, and regulation of the electrical and muscular functions of the heart depend upon magnesium. Magnesium is essential for preventing heart disease, the nation’s number one killer. Within the last fifty years, research indicates that approximately eight million people have died from heart failure, due to a lack of magnesium alone.
Optimal mental and emotional functions require adequate magnesium for neurotransmitter and hormone production. Magnesium is also essential for making new cells, activating B vitamins, clotting blood and secretion of insulin.
Magnesium deficiency has
become widespread,
largely because of
decades of mineral
depleting farming
practices. Official
figures show that up to
72% of women and 42% of
men receive less then
the daily recommended
level of magnesium.
It is often times
difficult to know if you
are deficient in
Magnesium or not because
Magnesium is found
mostly in your cells
rather than in your
blood.
Perhaps the two biggest symptoms Magnesium deficiency is fatigue and weakness.
In conventional medical circles, magnesium deficiency is considered rare, but most nutritionally minded physicians recognize the symptoms of potential magnesium deficiency in its many presentations. Magnesium deficiency should be considered as a partial or determining cause in any of the following conditions:
- ADD and ADHD
- Alzheimer’s / Dementia
- Anxiety
- Arrhythmias
- Asthma
- Bone weakness
- Depression
- Diabetes
- Edema
- Fatigue
- Fibromyalgia
- Hypertension / High blood pressure
- Irritability
- Joint and muscle inflammation
- Joint and muscle pain
- Joint and muscle stiffness
- Migraines
- Muscle cramps and twitches
- Muscle weakness
- Osteoporosis
- Panic attacks
- Phobias
- PMS
- Poor circulation
- Skin Disorders
- Sleep Disorders
Magnesium deficiency symptoms have three categories:
- Early symptoms include irritability, anorexia, fatigue, insomnia, and muscle twitching. Other symptoms include poor memory, apathy, confusion, and reduced ability to learn.
-
Moderate deficiency
symptoms consist of
rapid heartbeat and
other cardiovascular
changes.
Severe deficiency symptoms could lead to tingling, numbness, and a sustained contraction of the muscles, along with hallucinations and delirium.
Modern commercial fertilizers do not routinely replace magnesium, so it becomes depleted growing the green leafy vegetables that like to extract magnesium from the soil and make it available for us to eat. Because magnesium is highly soluble, the magnesium that does appear in foods is often removed in any form of commercial processing.
How to take it:
An important point about
magnesium is that it
promotes bowel motility.
If you take “too much”
magnesium, you can get
cramping and diarrhea.
Magnesium is often
balanced with calcium,
because “calcium
constipates and
magnesium moves” when it
comes to bowel activity.
When supplementing, any
dose that causes loose
bowels is too high; when
magnesium acts as a
laxative you are not
absorbing the magnesium
internally.
An estimated dose is
somewhere between 3 and
10 mg per pound of body
weight. This figure is
based upon the very low
absorption rate of most
magnesium supplements.
FreeMart PureMagneium is
in the form of Magnesium
L Theonate. It is highly
absorbable and therefore
a much smaller intake
may actually result in
more magnesium being
available to your cells.
Other important
absorption points are
that iron interferes
with the absorption of
magnesium, so they
shouldn’t be taken
together. Digestive
challenges interfere
with mineral absorption,
so addressing irritable
bowel or indigestion may
be necessary to achieve
full benefit from
magnesium
supplementation.
Suggested Usage For
maintenance – 1-3 times
daily until symptoms
subside and then 2-3
times weekly:
Adults take 40 drops
under the tongue or mix
with a small amount of
Free-Mart Water (mixed)
to be gargled or swished
in the mouth for
approximately six
minutes before
swallowing.
Children 4+ years use 10
drops in the same
manner.
Younger children 1-2
drops in the mouth.
FreeMart PureMagnesium may also be applied topically and through absorption directly into the skin may go more directly to muscles and tissues that are experiencing pain, cramping or discomfort due to lack of magnesium.
Free-Mart PureMagnesium Concentrate is our trademarked brand consisting of 98+% pure Magnesium L Theonate dispersed and suspended in pure, pharmaceutical grade water.
Note: The color of our mineral solutions can and do change with time and here is why.
We do not add any chemicals or color at all to any of our products; this includes chemical stabilizers. What produces the color in our PureSilver for example is the size of the Silver atoms and the number of Silver atoms that make up the Silver nanoparticles that are suspended in pure pharmaceutical grade water.
White light hits the nanoparticles of Silver in suspension, but not all of the wave lengths are absorbed; the ones that are not absorbed are reflected back as the color one sees. What is absorbed or reflected back is determined by the size of the atom (Gold, Silver, and Copper all have different atomic sizes) and the number of atoms that make up the nanoparticle that is suspended in the water. Smaller nanoparticles of a metal will produce a different color than larger nanoparticles.
Other manufacturers add stabilizing chemicals to their mineral solutions to prevent them from conglomerating together, thus causing a different color because now the nanoparticles are larger. We refuse to add stabilizing chemicals in order to maintain purity.
The tendency for Silver nanoparticles to conglomerate increases as the concentration increases because there are more Silver nanoparticles packed into the same cubic centimeter. In this case 200 ppm has one hundred times more Silver nanoparticles than 2 ppm. The downside of that is the perception that something is wrong if the color changes over time.
The reality is that regardless of the color, the nanoparticles that are suspended in pure pharmaceutical grade water are 100% safe because they are 99.99+% pure to begin with and they are suspended in pure water.
The products that one should be suspicious of are the ones that are too stable and one should ask what chemical has been added to provide this stability. The fact that we do not have a chemical stabilizer in our mineral solutions is evidenced by the fact that it can, and does, change color over time. Nevertheless, it remains 100% safe and effective.
