DID YOU KNOW?
Magnesium is more important than calcium , potassium or sodium as it is required to regulate them. Not many people are aware of the great roll magnesium plays in the proper functioning of the body. After oxygen, water, and basic food magnesium may be the most important element needed by the body. It is so vitally important, yet nearly completely ignored. Magnesium activates over 300 different biochemical reactions for the body to function properly thus making it a very important mineral for the body. Everyone knows the serious consequences from the lack of oxygen, water and food, but very few realize the consequences of magnesium deficiency.

Introduction to Nano Particle Ionic Magnesium!
Nano particle magnesium was developed by inspiration from God. This product started out as a mistake but it turns out the mistake was a turn of heavenly guidance. When development began on this product, strange events took place inside the research containers being used for this formulation. After being involved in ionics for many years a difference was noticed in the way this product was forming compared to other products that had been formulated previously. Through strange circumstances and many tests, the product was released from research to marketing.

What makes Nano Particle Ionic Magnesium unique and divinely inspired is the way the magnesium ions are available for absorption. Notice we say magnesium ions and not milligrams .

What is a Milligram?
Most people are unaware of what a milligram is. Virtually all recommendations for magnesium supplements are given in milligrams. That has been the standard for years. But let's look at what a milligram is in a little more detail.

Few have taken the time to analyze what a milligram really means. A milligram is a unit of mass . What is a unit of mass? From the American Heritage Dictionary we get a definition, which is, mass (m ² s) n. 1. A unified body of matter with no specific shape. 2. A grouping of individual parts or elements that compose a unified body of unspecified size or quantity. 3. A large but nonspecific amount or number. 4. The principal part; the majority. 5. The physical volume or bulk of a solid body .

Let's take the components of Part 1: A milligram is a unit of mass , Plus Part 2: which is the physical volume, or bulk of a solid body which would then equal a milligram of magnesium in this case. It should be remembered that most magnesium products are sold as solids or mass particles and not ions.

Now if we take the two parts and put them together what we now have is a bulk amount of magnesium, which weighs a certain amount per a certain volume.

But, knowing magnesium is used by the body in Ionic Form , that from two Noble Prizewinners, and that ion channels are how magnesium goes into cells we must look beyond the simple definition of what a milligram is and look at how it is utilized by the body.

Does the magnesium from most magnesium supplements go intracellular in bulk, dry or powder form? No, they must first be converted into liquids. That is correct, the powder that you were taking from another product must ultimately be converted into a liquid form first because it can't go intracellular in powder form.

So, what happens? What is happening is the bulk powder or the milligram of magnesium, is being converted by the body into an ionic solution converted from the powder, bulk or milligram.

If that were not the case, absorption would not happen and thus a very limited amount if any, of mass / milligrams would be utilized by cells. We must further realize the body does not convert most of the magnesium into ions from the powder. That is because of limiting factors such as buffering and ineffective digestive systems.

Thus it can be seen and understood that ions of magnesium are what is being absorbed and ultimately not milligrams which are bulk powders.

The following question should be in everyone's mind. Why would I want to take a milligram of a bulk or mass powder that needs to be converted into ions when I can get the perfect solution ready for absorption?

Magnesium: A Unique Mineral.
Magnesium is a class of mineral very unique unto itself. There are many experts in the field of health but we will rely on one who understands magnesium. From his book Holy Water, Sacred Oil, the Fountain of Youth , Norman Shealy, MD, Ph.D., states the following: "Every known illness is associated with a magnesium deficiency," and further states, "magnesium is the most critical mineral required for electrical stability of every cell in the body. A magnesium deficiency may be responsible for more diseases than any other nutrient."

"Some 350 different enzymes within the body rely on magnesium," says Burton M. Altura, of the State University of New York Health Science Center in Brooklyn, New York . Altura, further states concerning stroke victims, "those who stroked out had the lowest levels of ionized magnesium when they stroked out. Yet, in some cases, the patients total magnesium concentrations were in the normal ranges." Magnesium is found in lower levels in the blood. The normal range for magnesium is 1.7 to 2.4 mEq/liter compared to sodium, which is 140 mEq/liter. Thus the problem of measuring accurate amounts of magnesium in the body is difficult because intracellular magnesium is what needs to be measured.

Magnesium and Loose Stools.
Why do people suffer from loose stools and even diarrhea when taking high quantities of magnesium? This occurs as non digested magnesium acts as a laxative because it has not been converted to ionic form before it enters the digestive system.

Testing for Magnesium levels.
The Journal of the American College of Nutrition published an article by Burton B. Silver, Ph.D., in which he makes his point very well concerning the inability of current methodology to measure magnesium levels within the body. Measuring serum magnesium is inaccurate because only 1% of the total body magnesium is found there. According to Dr. Silver, these measurements (serum levels) are of little use because they don't give an accurate status of magnesium levels needed within the body for health benefits. Accurate magnesium levels must be measured in intracellular spaces to attain true levels of magnesium that will then show superior benefits.

One concern we should all have when taking life critical minerals, is making sure the proper transit time is observed. If products do not get absorbed they will be excreted.

Various Magnesium Studies.
Athletes : studies in Germany involving bodybuilders and long distance runners support the idea that there are great benefits with magnesium therapy. Fewer muscle cramps and greater abilities to perform were discovered. Magnesium affects muscle tissues and low levels of magnesium prevent peak performance in athletes.

Obstetricians : have found the developing placenta and fetus drain maternal stores of magnesium and the bad part is, low levels of magnesium may contribute to cardiovascular problems during pregnancy. In Europe, magnesium therapy is becoming a routine part of obstetric care.

Cellulite : According to Dr. Susan Lark, MD in her newsletter, New Choices the Chemistry of Weight Loss, summer 2001 , "Magnesium is critical for getting rid of cellulite. Many of the weight problems I have seen can be cured with magnesium." A British researcher found that 80% of fatigue patients lack magnesium. The reason magnesium is important is, it stops cortisol production, which makes your belly bigger and because it helps convert fatty acids into the anti-inflammatory prostaglandin. Dr. Lark, says she has seen inflammation disappear and women loss 10 pounds in one week.

Chocolate : cravings for this delicious treat are associated with low levels of magnesium. Magnesium is a mineral lost during menstruation. Women who can't control their weight have found it easier to do so when they can nix the chocolate cravings. Test yourself with the chocolate test. Here it is. On Monday, do not take any magnesium and then eat a piece or two of chocolate and see how it tastes. On Wednesday, take a fair amount of magnesium right before eating the chocolate and notice the difference in how your tasted buds react to the taste of chocolate.

You should notice on the day you took the magnesium before you ate the chocolate that you did not enjoy it as much. On the contrary, when you eat chocolate when low on magnesium, wow! The chocolate tastes better when low on magnesium. We are not saying not to eat chocolate, we are just saying you may be low on magnesium.

Low Energy and Fatigue : Source: USDA / Agricultural Research Service Date: 2004. Most people think of calcium and phosphorus as the most important dietary components for bone health. But magnesium also plays an important role. It is involved in hundreds of biochemical reactions, many of which help keep not only bones strong, but the heart rhythm healthy and the nervous system functioning smoothly.

A study by Agricultural Research Service physiologist Henry C. Lukaski and nutritionist Forrest H. Nielsen reveals important findings on the effects of depleted body magnesium levels on energy metabolism.

Lukaski is assistant director of Agricultural Research Service Grand Forks Human Nutrition Research Center, Grand Forks, North Dakota. He and Nielsen, with the center's clinical nutrition support staff, showed that inadequate magnesium is associated with a need for increased oxygen during exercise .

They found that during moderate activity, those with low magnesium levels in muscle are likely to use more energy and therefore to tire more quickly than those with adequate levels.

The study's first phase provided 10 postmenopausal women with a controlled diet adequate in magnesium for 35 days. In the next phase, a low-magnesium diet provided less than half the recommended daily intake for 93 days. The last phase provided a diet adequate in magnesium for 49 days. The volunteers were subjected to exercise tests at the end of each dietary phase, along with biochemical and physiological tests.

After consuming the low-magnesium diet, volunteers showed a significant overall loss of magnesium. They had lowered muscle levels of magnesium, and their red blood cells were at the low end of the normal range.

The data shows that during the low-magnesium-status phase, the volunteers used more oxygen during physical activity, and their heart rates increased by about 10 beats per minute. " When the volunteers were low in magnesium, they needed more energy and more oxygen to do low-level activities than when they were in adequate-magnesium status," says Lukaski. The study was published in the May 2002 issue of the Journal of Nutrition .
