Thank you for the info I will have to show this to my mom and dad.
Very glad to be of help.
Just checked my supplement label and found “magnesium oxide”
Supplement rejected
🧐Same😬
But why is it prescribed? Is there another reason?
Edit: I am thinking, now that I did just a bit of research, that the magnesium oxide may have been prescribed because it causes diarrhea and they want you cleaned out before a colonoscopy.
Maybe Dr Berg is saying it’s still ok to take it in those settings but not in general?
@@randomcitizen9909 just because it’s cheap
It’s dirt cheap. That’s it.@@randomcitizen9909
But if taken with food it becomes one of the best forms
Following.
@@anon9362 you want it to react with as much HCl as possible
Good to know Glycinate is also the best for sleep.
Good to know.
It’s best overall for health
I’ve tried it for sleep before and found it didn’t help me at all. Magnesium Citrate does, however.
It may or may not work for sleep as you intended. You could either try higher dose or try different form of magnesium. Because personally I’ve tried 3 different types of Mg including glycine one.
Apigenin >>> anything
Magnesium is a confusing topic bc there are so many variations.
I agree with you on the best Magnesium to take but it is very hard to avoid Mag Oxide if you want or need to take a Multi-Vitamin tablet.
Good to know.
@@anon9362 I don’t agree with him on the side effects as I have been taking it for about 30 years in my multivitamin. I think the side effects have been grossly exaggerated. He never said what else was added to that orange drink!
@@leialee6820Dr. Berg talked about the colon cleanser that you have to drink before your colonoscopy.. It wasn’t abouts multivitamin. It’s because of the laxative effect in higher dose than in your multivitamin drink.
@@Nyla_ Correction – My multivitamin tablet.
He is still exaggerating it because this is not the only type of Magnesium that can have this effect, there are 2 others as well which are common as take. I have heard him speak on this particular one before & his main reason for not taking it was that you only benefit from absorbing 4% of the Magnesium.
@@leialee6820 he’s not wrong. Magnesium oxide is difficult to dissolved in water and that’s why it’s difficult to absorb it in body tissue.
There are a few magnesium variations that absorb much better than mg oxide. Mg Glycinate is one of them.
Well everyone is free to choose for himself.
I’m 25 and Been taking Glycinate for 4 months now… absolute game changer
Edit: I’m trying to respond to you guys but YouTube keeps deleting my responses
Do you mind sharing how it has helped you?
@@anon9362
1. My monthly cramps with a pain scale of 10/10 came down to 2/10
2. After an intense workout I deal with muscle ache and pains for 3-5 days, now it’s 2 day recovery max
3. Taking before bed, I have a deeper sleep and less anxiety that keeps me awake
4. It’s know to burn some calories too from what my hospital colleagues tell me which is a bonus for my weightloss journey
My naturopath I saw back in June told me about it and sold it to me for £30.
I speak more on it on my platform if you’re interested, recently uploaded
Wonderful! Thank you for sharing!
That’s it I’m switching. 😄 I’ve been taking magnesium oxide because I didn’t know the difference when I bought it. I noticed a real difference. Now I have to see what magnesium glycinate does.
@@anon9362 YouTube deleted my comment 😫
Thank you, for your daily videos.After work,I have something important to listen to and a gift from you for my healthy future.God bless you.
You’re absolutely welcome!
Doc, how about Magnesium Glycerophospate and Magnesium Gluconate?
Hello. Sorry, we do not have information/ video about this. We will add this to our video suggestion list for now. Thanks.
I got myself magnesium Gylcinat 100 mg for Asthma but found out that this small amount already forces me to sleep. First time I was scared because I had a sedating feeling. Now I devide the amount through the day and it helps me. So try a small amount first.
Does this help asthma? Has it helped you? How? I have bad asthma is why I asked.
@lindadoran6062 Yes, it does help me to breathe easier at night. I had only 50% my lungs working and on Cortison medication. I take daily Omaga 3, Sodium Selenite, Vitamin D ( 60 in blood whole year), and Magnesium. I have eaten less sugar and other highly processed carbs for one year now. I am off all medications ( but take supplements with no side effects)and feeling very good.
Thats so interesting. I already ordered it and didn’t know about asthma which could help me a lot.
Thank you so much for the info 👍🏼
Ive started taking Dr Burg’s Magnesium Glycinate. Ive noticed a difference in just a few days. I will be continuing to use this
Sounds good!
That’s what I use
@@quentincaldwell4302 What differences did you notice? I do sleep deeper but when I started taking the combo complex supplements I got diarrhea and leg cramps.
I have this serving size has 5. Do I take 5 pills for a serving? Confused. Only taking 2 not sure I see much difference.
@michellegreen4259 i only take two of them and it helps me sleep well. I’m definitely not about to take 5 at a time.
Here I thought oxide was good for headaches, citrate was to help you with bowel movements, and glycinate for muscle spasms – stress reduction- and better sleep.
It helps the brain UNSTRESS / RELAX indeed ✌🌱
Is magnesium oxide just ineffective or actively detrimental to your health?
Any studies that actually compare magnesium glycinate and citrate? Most i can find are health website and individuals with no sources.
Corruption in pharma mafia
Good to know, however I use to take magnesium oxide and it really does help me.
Helped in what mean
Not really, magnesium oxide helps with headaches! Every magnesium form has some laxative effect for me. Everyone’s reaction to these supplements is different. Try and find out what works for you!
Thanks for the wonderful videos
Thanks a lot Doc I was taking Magnesium oxide from past one week. The store guy said he don’t have magnesium glycinate I need to order online
