The effect is excellent! My body functions like clockwork now, with normalised stool and menstrual cycle. There was no premenstrual syndrome, and my mood and alertness improved significantly. My nails stopped breaking after four weeks. I've bought more and will continue to do so in the future, as the price is reasonable and much cheaper than retail pharmacies. I recommend these vitamins, although Solgar has a complex for women that is even better, which I’ve mentioned on my page.

Magnesium's impact on heart health
We examined the connection between dietary magnesium and cardiovascular disease, focusing on how magnesium intake or serum levels relate to heart health. Over the last couple of decades, numerous studies have shown that low magnesium levels are associated with several heart-related issues, including high blood pressure, heart attacks, and even heart failure.
Our insights reveal that even mild or moderate magnesium deficiencies can trigger physiological and metabolic changes that may heighten cardiovascular risks. When magnesium levels are insufficient, we see a rise in inflammation, oxidative stress, and issues with how fats are processed in the body, which can lead to serious heart problems.
Furthermore, we noted that many individuals often consume less magnesium than what is recommended, particularly those who do not regularly eat whole grains, legumes, or green vegetables. This widespread lack of magnesium is concerning, as it could be a significant factor influencing heart disease in the general population.

We investigated how intranasal zinc (Zn) treatment affects symptoms of allergic rhinitis (AR), specifically focusing on individuals suffering from Japanese cedar pollinosis (JCP), a common seasonal allergy. In our study, we monitored 57 control subjects and 44 patients from preseason through the allergy season, observing the levels of Zn in both nasal fluid and serum.
Our findings showed that after exposure to pollen, the level of zinc in the nasal lining fluid of JCP patients significantly increased, while their serum zinc levels notably decreased compared to the control group during the JCP season. To delve deeper, we used model mice that could mimic these changes and the allergy symptoms of the patients.
The results from this mouse study were promising. We observed that treating these mice with a dose of zinc, similar to what humans might use, led to a notable improvement in their allergy symptoms. Additionally, the number of mucin-secreting goblet cells, which indicate a response to allergies, significantly decreased following the zinc treatment.
Our study points towards the potential of using intranasal zinc as a way to alleviate allergy symptoms, suggesting a new approach to managing allergic rhinitis.

We explored the connection between zinc deficiency and anemia through the case of an 18-year-old woman who faced a series of health issues, including urinary tract infections and insulin dysfunction. After a thorough assessment, she was diagnosed with zinc deficiency, shedding light on how this overlooked issue can impact overall health.
What stood out to us was the rapid recovery the patient experienced after beginning oral zinc supplementation. Zinc plays a critical role in numerous bodily functions, including immune support and protein regulation. By addressing her deficiency, we observed significant improvement in her symptoms, including anemia.
The patient’s diet contained high levels of substances that were inhibiting her zinc absorption, which likely contributed to her condition. This case emphasizes the importance of recognizing zinc deficiency as a potential underlying cause for unexplained health issues, particularly anemia. Prompt diagnosis and treatment can lead to a complete turnaround in the patient's health.
By sharing this experience, we hope to raise awareness among clinicians about the vital role of zinc in managing anemia and encourage timely interventions for patients showing diverse symptoms.

Zinc may alleviate anxiety symptoms
We explored the connection between zinc intake and anxiety in adults through a systematic review of nine original studies. Two of these studies looked at how zinc consumption impacts anxiety, while the other seven focused on the relationship between serum zinc levels and anxiety symptoms. Our analysis included studies published in English within peer-reviewed journals, ensuring a solid foundation for understanding this potential link.
What we discovered was quite illuminating. The data indicated that individuals experiencing anxiety often had lower levels of zinc in their serum compared to those who did not suffer from anxiety. Additionally, we observed an inverse association between zinc intake and anxiety levels. This suggests that higher consumption of zinc may contribute to reduced anxiety symptoms.
In conclusion, the evidence points towards zinc playing a positive role in treating anxiety, although we acknowledge some limitations in the available studies. This means zinc supplementation could be a beneficial strategy for those looking to manage their anxiety, but more research is needed to confirm these findings and understand the underlying mechanisms better.

We explored the effectiveness of a powder containing 2% undecylenic acid and 20% zinc undecylenate for treating athlete's foot, also known as tinea pedis. In a double-blind study, 151 participants were assigned to apply either the active powder or a placebo twice daily for four weeks. The results were telling.
From the 85 patients with confirmed fungal infections, a remarkable 88% of those using the active powder had negative cultures after the treatment, compared to only 17% in the placebo group. Additionally, 80% of those on the active treatment were found to be free of fungus in KOH skin scrapings after four weeks, while only 49% of placebo users achieved this. Furthermore, we observed significant improvement in symptoms like itching, burning, erythema, and scaling, with no side effects reported.
Overall, our findings indicate that the combination of undecylenic acid and zinc may offer a robust solution for individuals suffering from athlete's foot, effectively reducing fungal presence and alleviating uncomfortable symptoms. However, it is important to note that while zinc played a role in this combination treatment, we cannot fully assess its isolated effect on its own without further studies.

Zinc enhances vitamin D in menopause
We set out to understand how zinc supplementation could affect vitamin D status and leptin levels in postmenopausal women. The study involved 51 healthy postmenopausal women aged between 44 and 76 from Granada, Spain. They were divided into two groups: one receiving a zinc supplement of 50 mg daily for eight weeks and the other receiving a placebo.
Our findings revealed that zinc supplementation significantly improved vitamin D status in these women. Particularly, those who had reached menopause at a younger age saw a notable increase in their vitamin D levels after taking zinc.
Additionally, we discovered a connection between zinc and leptin levels, a hormone that regulates energy balance. Both dietary zinc intake and its plasma levels were found to be inversely related to serum leptin levels—meaning as zinc levels increased, leptin levels tended to decrease.
Overall, these results suggest that zinc supplementation may play a beneficial role during menopause by enhancing vitamin D levels and influencing leptin balance among postmenopausal women.

In our study, we examined how epipharyngeal abrasive therapy (EAT), which includes the use of zinc chloride, affects the expression of a key molecule known as Cav1.2. This molecule is essential for the influenza virus to enter cells, making it a crucial target in flu prevention strategies.
We compared two groups of patients: those who received EAT and those who did not. Our findings revealed that the levels of Cav1.2 were significantly lower in the EAT group, at a striking 4.19 times less than in the non-treated group. This suggests that the squamous metaplasia induced by EAT—which is a process of changing the epithelium—could be a beneficial approach to limiting flu infections.
The results of the study highlight zinc's potential indirect role in flu prevention by remarking on its contribution to lowering the expression of a critical receptor for the virus. Although we didn't isolate the effects of zinc alone, the findings indicate that treatments involving zinc, like EAT, may offer a straightforward way to help limit the impact of influenza.

We conducted a study to discover how magnesium sulfate affects nausea during orthognathic surgery. In this research, we divided 75 adult patients into two groups: one group received magnesium sulfate, while the other received a placebo saline solution.
We discovered that those who received magnesium experienced significantly less postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) compared to the control group. Specifically, at two hours post-surgery, patients in the magnesium group reported less severe PONV.
Additionally, this group also had lower requirements for remifentanil, a pain reliever, indicating that magnesium not only helps with nausea but may also play a role in overall pain management during recovery. The magnesium levels in the blood after surgery were notably higher in the magnesium group, further supporting its effectiveness.
This research suggests that incorporating magnesium sulfate into treatment protocols during orthognathic surgeries can greatly enhance patient comfort by minimizing nausea and improving pain control.

We explored how zinc affects heart function in the context of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), specifically focusing on cases of intermittent hypoxia (IH). In a detailed study using male rats, researchers set up different groups: a control group and one that underwent 10 weeks of exercise training. Half of the rats in both groups were exposed to IH conditions to simulate the effects of sleep apnea.
The results were eye-opening. Rats that experienced IH showed notable impairment in their heart's left ventricular function, characterized by reduced ejection fraction and increased inflammation. However, when treated with zinc, these negative effects were significantly countered. Notably, those who exercised and received zinc treatment displayed improved heart function and antioxidant capabilities compared to their counterparts that did not receive zinc.
On the flip side, exercise alone did not provide the same protective benefits when zinc was absent. The findings suggest that zinc is essential not only for the heart's protection against the damaging effects of IH but also enhances the benefits of physical exercise. This research indicates the importance of zinc in potentially managing heart health in individuals suffering from sleep apnea.

Magnesium protects against bone erosion
We delved into the relationship between magnesium levels and gouty arthritis, a condition known for causing painful flare-ups and damaging joint function. Our research focused on measuring serum ionized magnesium levels in a group of 769 patients and assessing how these levels relate to bone erosion, a serious complication of gout.
Our findings revealed that patients experiencing bone erosion had significantly lower magnesium levels compared to those without erosion. When we categorized magnesium levels into quartiles, the data showed that those in the lowest quartile (Q1) were more likely to have bone erosion compared to patients in higher quartiles. In fact, the prevalence of erosion in the lowest magnesium group was much higher, illustrating a clear connection.
Through detailed analysis, we concluded that higher levels of serum ionized magnesium may serve as a protective factor against bone erosion in gouty arthritis. This suggests that magnesium supplementation could be a promising strategy for individuals suffering from this debilitating condition, potentially helping to slow down or prevent further joint damage.

We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis exploring how dietary magnesium (Mg) intake connects with depression among adults. By reviewing data from over 63,000 individuals, we found that those with the highest magnesium intake had a 34% lower chance of experiencing depression compared to those with the lowest intake.
Furthermore, our analysis indicated that every increase of 100 mg per day in magnesium intake was linked to a 7% reduced risk of depression. These findings suggest that increasing dietary magnesium could play a valuable role in lowering depression risk.

We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to explore how zinc gluconate affects migraine symptoms in women. Sixty participants, with an average age of 35, were given either 15 mg of zinc per day or a placebo for 12 weeks, allowing us to measure the impact on headache frequency, duration, and intensity.
The results were quite promising; zinc supplementation significantly reduced how often headaches occurred, shortened their duration, and decreased the severity of the migraines reported. Participants in the zinc group experienced notable improvements, as indicated by their responses to the headache severity scale and a disability assessment questionnaire.
Furthermore, we found that zinc also had a positive effect on certain health markers. The serum levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), total cholesterol, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) decreased with zinc supplementation. However, we didn’t observe significant changes in triglycerides or high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels after adjusting for baseline values.
In conclusion, zinc supplementation appears to hold beneficial effects on migraine severity and frequency, offering a potential alternative for those who seek relief from these debilitating headaches.

Magnesium reduces kidney stone risk
We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to explore how magnesium treatments influence kidney stones, specifically for those with high levels of oxalate in their urine. Our study involved 90 participants with a history of calcium kidney stones, all of whom were experiencing idiopathic hyperoxaluria. They were divided into three groups receiving either magnesium oxide (MgO), magnesium citrate (MgCit), or a placebo for eight weeks, while their diets were monitored to keep nutritional intake consistent.
After the treatment period, we observed promising results. Both MgO and MgCit effectively reduced the excretion of oxalate in urine, which is a key factor in kidney stone formation. The Group taking magnesium citrate showed even more significant reductions in both oxalate levels and the calcium oxalate supersaturation index, which measures the concentration of stone-forming minerals in urine. This was notably true for participants with normal magnesium levels.
Overall, we found that magnesium supplements might play a beneficial role in decreasing critical risk factors for kidney stones, especially for those using magnesium citrate. It's encouraging to see that this may offer a practical option for those struggling with recurrent stones due to high oxalate excretion.

We investigated how calcium influences prostate cancer cells by creating an experimental setup that mimics the bone microenvironment, which is where bone metastasis commonly occurs. Our approach involved using cell culture vessels coated with amorphous calcium phosphate, a substance designed to simulate the bone matrix. This innovative method represented a significant step forward in modeling the conditions that prostate cancer cells face in the body.
During our experiments, we found that hormone-sensitive prostate epithelial cell lines thrived more effectively on these calcium-rich surfaces. This enhanced adhesion and proliferation suggested that the high-calcium environment somehow supports cancer cell survival, even making them less dependent on androgens.
Furthermore, we observed notable changes in gene expression among early adenocarcinoma cell lines cultured on these amorphous calcium surfaces. These changes appeared to align with biological factors associated with prostate cancer progression, reinforcing the notion that calcium plays a significant role in cancer development and spread.
Overall, our findings emphasize the importance of considering calcium's effects when developing preclinical models for prostate cancer. A deeper understanding of how calcium interacts with cancer cells could provide vital insights into potential treatments and management strategies for affected individuals.

We investigated how choline magnesium trisalicylate (CMT) helps alleviate bone pain in patients with metastatic cancer. In a carefully designed study involving 26 participants, we compared CMT against a placebo in a crossover format, measuring pain relief at multiple intervals after dosing.
While we observed a significant reduction in pain just one hour post-treatment with CMT, other comparisons showed improvements that didn't reach statistical significance. This suggested that CMT might assist in managing bone pain, potentially complementing traditional opioids, but overall effectiveness is still under exploration.

We observed a striking case involving a 76-year-old woman diagnosed with cervical cancer, who was treated with nedaplatin, a platinum-based chemotherapy drug. Shortly after starting her treatment, she experienced troubling symptoms, including numbness, dizziness, and a noticeable loss of appetite.
Upon investigation, we discovered low levels of calcium and magnesium in her blood, which were likely contributing to her symptoms. Thankfully, after administering intravenous calcium and magnesium, we saw a prompt improvement in both her mineral levels and her symptoms.
The case underscores the importance of monitoring electrolyte levels during chemotherapy treatments, such as nedaplatin. By focusing on these disturbances, healthcare providers can unveil potential diagnoses even when patients present with vague symptoms. Regular follow-ups during anticancer therapies could be crucial in effectively managing side effects such as dizziness.

We explored the potential of magnesium implantation as a new approach to combat heart attacks, specifically myocardial infarction (MI). Our research centered on using magnesium slices implanted under the skin of rats to generate hydrogen gas continuously. This method could ensure a greater and longer-lasting concentration of hydrogen directly reaching the heart, which is crucial for its therapeutic effects.
Through our study, we measured how effectively the magnesium produced hydrogen and evaluated its safety. The results were promising; we observed that magnesium implantation not only improved cardiac function in rats suffering from MI, but also played a role in eliminating harmful free radicals from mitochondrial dysfunction. Furthermore, it helped reduce cell death in heart muscle cells, which is a common consequence of heart attacks.
Compared to traditional hydrogen inhalation, which has limitations in delivering sufficient doses over time, magnesium implantation proved to be a superior method. Overall, our findings pave the way for innovative treatments that could enhance recovery after heart attacks by harnessing the unique properties of magnesium for hydrogen production.

We set out to understand how magnesium sulphate influences the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). In a study involving 20 IBS patients, magnesium sulphate was administered orally, resulting in a quick boost in colonic motor activity. Most participants experienced this increase within just two to six minutes.
Specifically, the percentage of colonic activity rose from 16.2% to 23.7%, signaling a notable change. Those who often felt abdominal pain after eating showed even more pronounced reactions, with their activity jumping from 16.1% to 29.8%. However, it’s important to note that three of these patients still experienced their usual pain after taking magnesium, suggesting that while magnesium can enhance motility, it doesn’t eliminate the pain for everyone.
Ultimately, these findings lend support to the idea that some cases of abdominal pain related to food may stem from heightened intestinal responses to cholecystokinin, a hormone released by the intestine. So while magnesium shows promise for intriguing changes in colonic movement in IBS patients, its effectiveness in alleviating pain remains mixed.

Magnesium reduces migraine symptoms
We explored how magnesium supplementation can help alleviate migraines, a condition that affects countless individuals and can be incredibly disabling. Research has shown a strong link between magnesium deficiency and various factors that contribute to migraines, such as neurological changes and inflammation.
Studies, including randomized controlled trials, indicate that magnesium can reduce the frequency and severity of migraine attacks, both in the short term and as a preventative measure. This effectiveness is thought to stem from magnesium's ability to influence nerve function and reduce stress responses in the body.
We've examined the accumulating evidence from case studies and clinical trials, and it clearly points to magnesium being a valuable option for those suffering from migraines. By addressing magnesium deficiency, we may offer a new avenue for relief and improved management of this challenging condition.

We explored the effects of a special material called magnesium-based zeolitic imidazolate frameworks, or Mg-ZIF, on osteoporosis. This study aimed to find a way to tackle osteoporosis by reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS)—harmful molecules that affect our bone health.
Our findings revealed that Mg-ZIF is effective at scavenging ROS, which helps boost the bone-forming ability of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). By promoting osteogenic differentiation, Mg-ZIF supports the formation of new bone while simultaneously discouraging the development of fat cells from BMSCs, a process known as lipogenic differentiation.
In our in vivo experiments, we confirmed that administering Mg-ZIF could successfully lower ROS levels and mitigate the effects of osteoporosis. On a deeper level, the mechanism behind this involves Mg-ZIF enhancing BMSC differentiation into bone-forming cells by upregulating specific lipid metabolic pathways.
Overall, we believe that Mg-ZIF holds promise as a therapeutic approach for osteoporosis. By addressing the oxidative stress in the bone marrow environment, it opens a new door for potential treatments targeting this common bone disease.

By doing this, the researchers aimed to clarify whether zinc could genuinely shorten the duration of a cold or alleviate its symptoms.
The findings were intriguing but showed that zinc might not yield significant benefits for everyone. While some individuals reported a slight reduction in cold symptoms, the evidence did not strongly support zinc as an effective treatment overall.
This means that, for those seeking relief from a nasty cold, zinc alone might not be the go-to solution we hoped it would be. It’s essential to consider this information when deciding on a cold treatment plan and to approach zinc with realistic expectations.

We explored the effectiveness of magnesium sulfate (MS) in relieving low back pain (LBP) for patients who underwent iliac venous stenting. This study involved 97 patients, divided into two groups: one received MS infusion during their surgery, while the other did not.
Patients who received MS experienced significantly lower pain levels at all follow-up intervals. We found that, at 24 hours after surgery, those in the magnesium group consumed much less tramadol—a common pain medication—compared to the control group. Additionally, the need for extra pain relief was lower among those who received magnesium.
Importantly, the side effects like nausea and vomiting were similar in both groups, indicating that magnesium can be a safe option for pain management after this type of surgery.

We explored the impact of magnesium on secretory diarrhea, particularly in the context of cholera, a significant global health issue. The focus was on understanding how magnesium, often overlooked, could serve as an effective treatment option. In our study, we found that increasing levels of magnesium can significantly inhibit chloride secretion in intestinal cells, which is crucial during episodes of diarrhea.
We observed that magnesium, at concentrations typically seen in stool, reduced this secretory process by a remarkable 65%. This effect primarily occurs through a specific receptor in the intestinal cells known as the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR). Interestingly, we noted that magnesium also counteracted Cl- secretion triggered by cholera toxin and other enterotoxins by about 50%.
Using mouse models, we saw that administering magnesium effectively decreased fluid loss associated with cholera by 40%. In a model mimicking the intestinal environment during cholera, adding magnesium not only curbed fluid secretion but also reversed it, promoting absorption instead. Given that patients suffering from cholera often have negligible magnesium levels in their stool, our findings suggest that oral magnesium supplementation could be a simple but effective therapeutic strategy for managing cholera and potentially other forms of secretory diarrhea.
