Natural Treatments for Muscle Pain and Fibromyalgia
Muscle pain and spasms are often caused by a very basic
deficiency, lack of magnesium. It is
estimated that 80% of the population has a magnesium deficiency due to the
magnesium in the foods we eat being depleted. Magnesium deficiency is very hard to quantify because the blood test
that your doctor orders only test serum magnesium. They typically don't test the amount of magnesium that actually penetrates the cell walls, and gets in to the cells and into the tissue. Once you have a magnesium deficiency, it is
really hard to reverse it taking oral magnesium supplements. First oral use depends on the ability of the intestines to transfer the magnesium into the blood stream. Secondly the balance of HCL within the gut must be correct in order to assimilate the magnesium. Natural Treatments for Magnesium Deficiency:Using magnesium oil, magnesium gel, and
magnesium salts, may produce a very marked difference in symptoms! If you are getting muscle cramps at night, you
should try soaking your hands or feet in magnesium salt and warm water for
20-30 minutes every day for a week. Also, apply
magnesium oil or gel to your skin once or twice a day. The cramps should be gone very quickly.
Magnesium deficiency also causes problems with the heart
muscle functioning properly. And it
causes people to feel anxious, nervous and emotionally fragile. Magnesium transdermally, used on the skin, is
very well tolerated and absorbs very quickly to replete magnesium levels in the
body. Magnesium is one of the most
important minerals in the body due to the large number of magnesium dependent
functions in the body.
