What do you think about the form of this supplement that I take (explained at the end of the video)?

Isn't Magnesium to be taken with D-vitamin + K2-vitamin? I am no medical professional, but that's what I heard on other channels?!
My husband’s family all suffer from migraines and have to take imigraine injections to help them so I put my husband on magnesium and since February he has been headache free ❤
Good morning Dr Brad can we get your vitamins in the UK kind regards June
Do you have vices???
I cant decide, so I'm taking 9 different forms of magnesium.
Dr Brad. Thank you very much for all the information you provided . I’ve been taking the magnesium you suggested and feeling good. But when I took the creative I couldn’t sleep moor than 5 hours. Should I take melatonin to help?
Dr Brad, can you please do a video on MCT Oil? Is it total BS? Is it complicated?
I take the magnesium tablets that fizz in water. They are magnesium carbonate but contain citric acid so they convert to magnesium citrate and the carbon is released as co2 in the reaction.
Also bought bags of taurine and glycine so take these too.
Cortisol blocks absorption of magnesium (and calcium…).
So the tolerable upper intake level for supplemental magnesium mean "elemental Magnesium"?
???? Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
00:00 ???? Importance of Magnesium
– Magnesium is crucial for over 300 enzyme reactions in the body.
– Only a small fraction of the population reaches the recommended daily intake.
– Magnesium deficiency can lead to various health issues, including problems with nerve function, muscle contractions, and heart rhythm.
02:31 ???? Signs of Magnesium Deficiency
– Early signs include loss of appetite, nausea, and fatigue.
– As deficiency worsens, symptoms can progress to muscle contractions, seizures, and abnormal heart rhythms.
– Certain groups, like those with gastrointestinal diseases or type 2 diabetes, are more likely to be at risk of magnesium deficiency.
04:11 ???? Benefits of Magnesium Supplementation
– Magnesium supplements may help decrease blood pressure and lower the risk of cardiovascular disease.
– Increased magnesium intake is associated with a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes.
– Magnesium is involved in bone formation, potentially reducing the risk of osteoporosis.
06:30 ⚠️ Risks of Magnesium Supplements
– Too much magnesium can lead to diarrhea and abdominal cramping.
– The tolerable upper intake level for magnesium supplements is 350 mg.
– It's essential to supplement wisely and not exceed recommended levels.
07:38 ???? Different Forms of Magnesium
– Magnesium oxide is cheap but poorly absorbed by the body.
– Magnesium citrate is more bioavailable and may help with constipation.
– Magnesium glycinate, L3 anate, and taurate offer unique benefits, such as improved sleep, cognitive function, and cardiovascular health.
10:01 ???? Best Form of Magnesium: Magnesium Taurate
– Magnesium taurate is highly bioavailable and supports cardiovascular health.
– It crosses the blood-brain barrier, offering cognitive benefits.
– Magnesium taurate is well-absorbed and gentle on the stomach, making it a top choice for supplementation.

I just dosed the last 2 nights with a Bisglycinate sample I received from SISU,… The best sleep ever my friends ????…
Do people who have very demanding mental work, e.g., software engineers, need more magnesium than the average person?
OMG I am taking magnesium taurate. Is this okay? It doesn’t say how much is in the capsule. Holland and barret.
I think that as with Vitamin D3, you're being too conservative by saying not to get more than 350mg in supplements. The UL is not really about safety. Many people take 600mg or more Magnesium with no bad effects. If kidneys can excrete excess and many people don't absorb all they take, I'd say err on the side of more.
I don't think I should take magnesium because I get almost 800mg but only about 1000mg of Calcium so getting anymore could reduce my Calcium absorbtion
What about magnesium carbonate?
I have a decent supplement list I take that I feel good with but unfortunately a can't take magnesium because it often triggers migraines. I'm surprised to hear in your video about the benefits to prevent migraines, with me it works the other way. Let me know if you experience the same because it's interesting to me
Video #3,749 about this..We all kno which one….STOP THE clivk bait and hangout with your HOTT WIFE
You forgot Magnesium Malate which is also used for mitochondrial energy
Thanks. Very good summary and overview of the facts about magnesium and the need to supplement. I wonder about the whole "blood brain barrier" argument though. I mean, there is probably no magnesium taurate (l-threonate) in food and magnesium does get inside the brain. So I think all magnesium supplement will ultimately raise the magnesium level in the brain and there is no real reason to pay extra money for these new forms of magnesium that can "cross the blood brain barrier". I also read in a scientific journal that there are active transport mechanism to get magnesium across the barriers that protect the brain. Maybe I'm missing something but since taking a magnesium supplement is important why not recommend the form of magnesium that most people can afford. This would philosophically be in line with some of your other videos in which you debunk useless supplement.
Magnesium malate is easily absorbed and the malate part (malic acid) plays roles in skin and muscle health and more. I take tourine and glycine/NAC as part of my survival routine but it seems to just make sense to take Magnesium with malic acid as they seem to compliment each other. Taking tourine with magnesium means having to figure out proper ratio to get enough of each but not too much of either… Thanks for another great video.
Commission from supplement companies is the best
Being an anticoagulant does it have added benefits to people with factor v Leiden who are not on blood thinners?
Hi doc. I subscribed to you microvitamin tratment. What is the dose? How many pills per day? Thanks in advance.
the best is magnesium orotate, but no one speaks about that, probably just because how expensive is it ????♂️
Dear Dr Brad Stanfield, I have Barrett’s esophagus with no evidence of displasia , thus far. Can I take ageing supplements like nmn?
Please mention a good brand of magnesium supplement
yesterday after viewing this video I rushed to the nearest pharmacy here in Montreal looking for magnesium taurate but I didn't find it so I bought magnesium citrate 150 mg instead, once at home I took one pill (150 mg) with a glass of the water, after around two hours I got the most severe diarrhea in my entire life, I spent many back and forth to the bathroom.
What are your thoughts on magnesium malate relative to the ones mentioned? It's also supposed to have high bioavailability and longevity benefits
Brad, any chance of making a Magnesium that doesn't contain ALL the other stuff you have added to yours?
I could never take your Magnesium supplement as I am already getting enough of the other stuff you have added to yours.
All the studies performed on magnesium threonate were performed by the owners of the patent.
Is it the Taurine that crosses the blood brain barrier? I already take Taurine so went with Glycinate.
Love the info, although the video is quite long.
Guys, just watch the last 3 min
Does Celecoxib extend lifespan as ncbi sugests?
What about magnesium hydroxide and magnesium carbonate?
What about using both glycinate and taurate in combination…half in the morning and half in the evening?
