Magnesium Deficiency and How it affects your Immune System and Mast Cells and Possibly Celiac Disease and/or NCGS

To All,

Knitty Kitty started a thread on Thiamine, Thiamine, Thiamine, once upon a time, so now is the time to start a thread on Magnesium as a resource for others who don't have the time to do the research and wonder if taking Magnesium might help them!

Maybe it will be helpful to others as Knitty Kitty's thread on Thiamine deficiency.

I will start with one on IBS and Magnesium Deficiency.

Entitled "Magnesium and inflammatory bowel disease" aka IBS

quoting there entire abstract because it is instructive.

Abstract

"Mg deficiency is a frequent complication of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) demonstrated in 13-88% of patients. Decreased oral intake, malabsorption and increased intestinal losses are the major causes of Mg deficiency. The complications of Mg deficiency include: cramps, bone pain, delirium, acute crises of tetany, fatigue, depression, cardiac abnormalities, urolithiasis, impaired healing and colonic motility disorders. Serum Mg is an insensitive index of Mg status in IBD. Twenty-four-hour urinary excretion of Mg is a sensitive index and should be monitored periodically. Parenteral Mg requirements in patients with IBD are at least 120 mg/day or more depending upon fecal or stomal losses. Oral requirements may be as great as 700 mg/day depending on the severity of malabsorption."

Or simply stated up to almost 90% of IBS patients are or could be low in Magnesium.

This youtube webinar that summarizes a lot of Magnesium links to allergies in about a 30 minute video.

This one for anyone who has asthma entitled "Role of magnesium in regulation of lung function"

This one entitled "Magnesium (Deficiency) in Infectious Diseases in Older People"

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33435521/

This one entitled "Possible roles of magnesium on the immune system"

https://www.nature.com/articles/1601689

This is enough to get this thread started I/you/we can always add more research latter.

I always said the Lord being my help......I was lucky I found Magnesium early and I still believe that!

I hope this is helpful but it is  not medical advice.

I have four autoimmune diseases. Last year, I started falling. Diagnosed with gluten ataxia. My docs tried several approaches, but finally settled on magnesium. Infusions didn’t work, but they then put me on an 8 times dosage of oral slow magnesium. The falls stopped. Check with your docs on this. Sure worked for me.

      Oh yes I can understand the tiredness after going threw all that, must be exhausting especially on the mind I have high aniexty so I can understand that , I wish there more easier ways for people to get help , I had a MRI on my spine some years ago without anything it was really quick and no prep , I understand the need for  them to see better with the bowel ,but you think they would use something a little less traumatic  for ibd sufferers on the bowels by now ,I hope your feeling better today 🙏

      I wonder if tingling burning feet are part of it.. I'm not sure if it's the med reaction that people with gluten intolerance get or the food we ate  It's frustrating because a person who did not want to admit to himself I had this condition wanted me to eat this chicken sandwich and now I'm stuck with a variety of symptoms plus now I'm hungry on top of it..  I'm new to this so I forget that "one bite" of the wrong thing can hurt us.😔. Do we stop eating if someone exposed us to gluten ??  My stomach is rumbling but my joints hurt ...  It's weird because I can feel the anxiety coming on.  I get joint problems ,  I don't know if anyone ever got hot flashes?? I suppose if it affects people head to toes you can get that too.   It's weird...hard to decipher what is what.   Also how long do I have to deal with this attack??  Makes me feel like not getting up out of bed.  I get too many symptoms which  horrible.  Thank you for your response..

      as my last post stated, i was diagnosed via endoscopy on the 14th of june. i have been eating amazing home cooked meals, luckily, mainly cooked by my boyfriend who is extremely careful about contamination (and is an incredible cook at that). however, i find myself in a mental rut still. being 18, this is the time in my life where i should be exploring things, going out, having fun. yet every corner i turn i'm tortured by the amazing smell of something i can't have anymore. the wonderful sight of such yummy foods. it's near torture. if my boyfriend and his friend who lives with us buy something i can't have, they'll usually eat it outside of the house or the car or wherever we are - which is greatly appreciated - but even seeing a burger or chips or a sausage roll in their hands guts me almost beyond repair. i just wanna have it again too. i miss it. i feel left out and it makes me very sad all the time. it's not their fault. they are allowed to eat whatever they want to, whatever their intestines will allow. it just stings, bad. and i feel so ungrateful given i basically have a private chef who is doubly the love of my life. but it's just so hard. i know i'll adapt. i haven't given up hope.i just wanted to vent. thank you for reading

      Thank you. I must have misinterpreted a study or something. Thank you for the clarification. Much appreciated. Almost three years into my celiac diagnosis and I'm still learning new things.
