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.

      Reese's Plant Based PeanutButter Cups are made with non-Gluten Free Oats and only states on the package Dairy Free.  Is it safe for Celiacs or those with Gluten Intolerance issues to consume?  I think Mars is taking a small step in the right direction concerning food allergies and wish they were Gluten Free.

      These items are on sale for $3.99 at Target: Choose from Choclate Chip, Grahams or Vanilla Wafers.   I purchased all 3 plus an extra Choclate Chip.  All are produced in a dedicate Gluten & Peanut Free Facility and other choices are available on amazon.com.

      I had these for years, covered in scars from them. Not had any since I started taking reishi and cordyceps tincture, they’re immune modulators, I think that’s how they work. Most of my other symptoms have also disappeared, I take a treble dose if I get glutened and it’s almost an instant fix, 3 days of mild symptoms instead of 3 weeks of horrible. Might be worth a try, don’t be put off by the caterpillars, I think they’ve found a different way of growing them now.

      Welcome to the forum, @LookingForAnswers101, I had similar experiences with boil outbreaks in the same areas.  Mine was caused by Candida Albicans and eating a diet too high in sugar and simple carbohydrates.   Candida is a yeast infection, so the antibacterial wash is not going to help.  I had to change my diet to a Paleo diet before it went away.  If I consume high levels of sugar or other simple carbohydrates (rice, corn, dairy, etc.), boils would occur at pressure points like the groin and back of the legs.  Your doctor might be able to prescribe an antifungal medication, but some of those antifungal medications destroy thiamine.  Thiamine is needed to keep fungal and bacterial infections in check.  I took Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine, but TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) will work, too.   Thiamine, and the other B vitamins, especially Niacin and Biotin, along with Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Vitamin D will help keep skin healthy.  Be sure to address these nutritional deficiencies that occur with Celiac! Ask your doctor to rule out autoimmune hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and Human Papilloma virus, too.   Hang in there!  You'll get over this rocky patch of the journey!  Best wishes! P. S.  Get checked for Type Two Diabetes as well.  Candida, type two diabetes and a high carbohydrate diet often go together.  A Paleo diet really helps me with my Type Two Diabetes and Candida overgrowth.

      As I mentioned, gluten intolerance encompasses more than just those with celiac disease, and in the past was used more like the term "gluten sensitivity" is used today.
