now i talked a lot about the importance of magnesium but today we’re going to talk about when not to take magnesium the danger of taking too much magnesium is when the body cannot get rid of it normally we have a mechanism in our kidneys that can easily get rid of excess amounts of magnesium but there’s certain conditions where we can’t there’s also certain laxatives that you can get that are magnesium based which will give you like 5000 milligrams of magnesium per day and our bodies really only need less than one tenth of that so if we’re taking that much and there’s certain organ problems that prevent the elimination of magnesium then you could be in trouble here are just a few symptoms of what could occur if you have too much magnesium diarrhea nausea abdominal cramping low blood pressure depression lethargy difficulty breathing irregular heartbeat and cardiac arrest now let’s talk about four situations in which you would not want to take a lot of potassium maybe you could take up to 200 milligrams and you wouldn’t necessarily have to worry about it from your food but you wouldn’t want to be taking large amounts number one and the big one is kidney disease if you have chronic kidney disease that’s going to really inhibit your ability to get rid of the excess now if you’re a diabetic and you have something called diabetic nephropathy now that’s different than neuropathy which is a nerve problem nephropathy is a kidney problem all right next one is if you’re on dialysis okay and also if on your urine test you see something that says low gfr that indicates that your kidneys ability to filter is lower than it should be so you’re not going to get rid of excessive magnesium all right next condition is hypothyroidism in hypothyroidism everything is slowed down okay and then you have addison’s disease which is a condition of your adrenal glands which they’re pretty much shot they’re not working it’s a hypoadrenal state and so again you’re not going to be able to get rid of excessive magnesium and lastly if you’re taking certain medications that can inhibit your ability to get rid of magnesium like fosamex that’s normally for osteoporosis certain antibiotics uh diuretics and lithium all right thanks for watching and i put some links down below of additional videos on magnesium that are very important to watch hey before you go real quick i have a course entitled how to bulletproof your immune system it’s a free course i want you to take it and here’s why here’s you here is your environment everyone is focused on this over here avoiding your environment but what about here what about strengthening your immune system that’s what’s missing this course will show you how to bulletproof yourself and so you can tolerate and resist your environment much better by strengthening your own immune system i put a link down in the description right down below check it out and get signed up today
