Let's talk about magnesium
Do you have muscle pain and cramps? This could be for you
Foodtribe for years I have fought bad muscle pain and extreme muscle cramps all over my body. At times my chest would cramp so hard I could not breathe until the cramp would break loose. On a good day it still hurt to breathe because my chest did not want to expand the way it is supposed to.
When I went to the doctor to get checked they put me on anti-inflammatory meds and muscle relaxers. Anyone who knows me knows I don't like taking pills. These pills did work for a short time, but then did not work as well. When I went back to the doctor they told me this will only get worse and the medication will have to get stronger and stronger. That's not good.
I just assumed this was my life now so I lived with the pain and I have for years now. For the last six months it's been getting worse. For the last couple weeks it has been really really bad and nothing was working.
Yesterday I was told to try and take about 850mg of magnesium because it is a muscle lubricant. With how bad it was getting, I was willing to try anything.
Combined with my daily vitamin this gave me 600mg of magnesium. I took it after eating last night and prayed for the best.
I am so happy to report that a single 600mg dose of magnesium has done more for me than doctors and meds have done in years. Last night was the first night I was able to sleep all night without getting up several times to fight muscle cramps in a very long time. And it is the first time I have been able to stretch without cramping and hurting. I honestly do not remember the last time I was able to do a full body stretch. As soon as my feet hit the floor this morning I felt twenty years younger. Today I have been able to move in ways I have not been able to in years. The crushing feeling on my chest was gone, so now I can breathe better and without pain. I literally feel like a new person. I could not believe it worked that fast.
If you suffer from muscle pain, muscle stiffness and cramps try this. I pray it will help you the way it helped me. I wish I would have known this years ago.

Welcome to the club, glad to hear you feel better with it! don’t drink coffee when taking it, the caffeine blocks the magnesium from reaching the blood
Wow I did not know that.
So glad you found something that helped. My hubby has used this to help his migraines. He suffered with them for years do to his eye disease he has. A neighbor told him about taking this and he hasn’t had any migraines since. I take them also for ankle cramps. I have severe arthritis in both ankles and they would cramp all the time and this has helped me too.
So am I. I am glad it has helped you. I know all to well how horrible ankle cramps can be. I did not know it would help with migraines. I am happy it helps your husband.
Thank you.
Awesome! Happy you feel better!
Thank you Zahra 🙂
Interesting post, yeah I have known some facts about magnesium that it's good for musle pains and cramps but also it prevents heart attacks.
By the way I hope your parents are doing good!
I did not know about being good for the heart but the heart is a muscle. Thanks for asking my friend they are doing better. Still don't know any more about dads lung cancer.
Yees, magnesium has lots to offer. Sending good vibes and thoughts to all of you! 🍀
I do! I take about 200mg at night that is in an herbal for my gut/digestion...not having a gallbladder anymore is no picnic and i need all the help i can with my IBS
Oh I bet not. So is it good for digestion then?
I think the herbal stuff is, not sure why the Mg is in there, but i like to think it helps 🤷🏻♀️
