I was having terrible hot flashes throughout the day and night I told my doctor she didn't say anything about taking magnesium. I bought magnesium 400 mg I take one a day it works so fast that my hot flashes are gone after 3 days I maybe get one hot flash a day. Finally relief my hot flashes were driving me crazy. Great video thank you
@@inbetweenroadswings8196 magnesium cell trate. And ended up not working and I went to my OBG and they put me on the combipatch. It's a patch you put on your hip . Thank God because I was losing my s***. Do not suffer with this. It can last up to 7 years. I have no more hot flashes
I'm 47 and in Perimenopause. I have noticed a great improvement in my mood and energy levels since doing the following: Taking a supplement (Calcium/Magnesium /Vit D/Zinc), reducing caffeine, reducing sugar, and I'm on Iron due to low Iron stores and I really am noticing a difference. The fatigue and apathy was horrendous, hot flushes were getting stronger. Now my depression and apathy have gone, have more energy and my hot flushes have reduced in intensity 😊
May I ask what iron supplement people are using (if they are liking it and it is not causing constipation). I’m having much constipation symptoms from the iron. Maybe this is inevitable?! I need to take it per my doctor because I am a bit low.
I was having palpitations and joint pains during my pre menopause, since I started talking magnesium,calcium +D3 all those symptoms are gone for good. Thanks A.Vogel🙏❤️
Thank U Elieen … I m from Singapore 🇸🇬 Thank God I found you cos I dunnoe what’s happening to my system. Visited 7 doctors and finally I got the answer. Perimenopause. Your symptoms and mine are so similar which I was glad to find You as a mentor to help me. Thank you. ❤️
Hi everyone.Iam now postmenopause by about 3 years i have gone through all the symtoms you can think of in that time hot and cold flushes the cold were for me worse i would shiver and be cold to the bone freezing i enjoyed the heat wave this year.Stomach problems which are still on going bloating was the worst but its getting better.i can see some light at the end of the tonel what with low mood loss of self confidence the list as you all know go's on,beginning to feel a bit better and i have got some attitude back guess that must be the left over testosterone it feels good,only thing is with me its and still is muscle stiffness /cramps/spasms ...mainly in my back it feels like a squeezing sensation the latest is my throat i have spasms and it is hard to swallow if stay relaxed it soon passes but i did panic with the first ever one.Ihave just discovered Aileen and i wish i found her sooner a great help to us all at a very important time of our lives.Thankyou.
Hi Margaret - Glad to be of help! Have you tried a magnesium supplement for the muscle stiffness, 200mg once or twice a day can often be beneficial and this can also help with mood and sleep. Passiflora Complex may also help with the throat spasming - remember to drink lots of water as dehydration can be a factor here too.
CHECK YOUR THYROID ... CHECK YOUR LIVER .. WHAT YOU MENTIONED SOUND LIKE HYPOTHYROIDISM .. FATTY LIVER CAN BE THE ROOT CAUSE .. LOOK UP DR. ERIC BERG'S CHANNEL ON RU-vid.. HE EXPLAINS IT WELL
Snap, I am about 3 1/2 years post menopause and have been through the lot! But funny enough this end of the 2 year mark. I have had really frightening rib spasms both front and back, tightening and feels like I cant expand my ribs. Some times like you, in my throat also. Other times I experience heart pulpitations which are very frightening. I get Steaming hot dizzy sensation comes over me and then I shivering. Also, trying to sleep is a night mere, I go off to sleep and then wake up and cant go back. My digestion is all over the place. I have read else where that I should be through the menopause symptoms by now! Ha!... I am so glad I have read your comments as I am at my wits end with it, I am trying Magnesium and other supplements, I have away eaten a healthy vegetarian/plant based diet, nutrition dense, so shouldn't be a problem but obviously is, yes thank goodness for Aileen X
Each time i feel foggy, irritable, when i feel my muscles weak or restless legs i take magnesium and it makes me feel much better, but i'm not sure if it's my imagination.
I love magnesium citrate for the mental clarity it seems to give, but I worry it causes my muscles to cramp. It shouldn’t, but I think the diarrhea it can cause makes me dehydrated, causing tight muscles. I wouldn’t think 200 mg would do this.
Hi April Unfortunately, some people are really sensitive to magnesium citrate so you may find swapping over to a chelated magnesium supplement such as magnesium taurate, glyconate, lysinate or orotate is better for you.
@@samholden4171 I can’t know for sure. It made me feel more energetic. When I exercise, I feel less depressed. It gave me energy to work out a bit more.
Thank you mam. I take a tsp of poppy seed daily soaked in water. It helps me a lot in many ways coz it's rich in many vitamins and minerals. Specially magnesium. So I'm free from headache now.
Sad that I went through menopause at 42- 43......not one doctor told me what could be wrong with me! My period was always off & on for years. I had no idea what was wrong.......I went to many Psychs, counselors thinking I was losing my mind. I had road rage, I felt like ripping my hair out, hot flashes all day, my bra or tight clothing made me nuts!! I think I had a nervous breakdown.......I've never been the same. Most everyone just said it was all in my head, I was paranoid, I WAS the problem.
Hi Maye I would suggest an amino acid chelated magnesium such as magnesium glycinate - your local health shop should be able to help with this. If you find these difficult to source then go for a magnesium citrate, approx. 150mg twice a day
Hello, just on your comment about taking magnesium with heart medication. I’m on propanalol which is a beater blocker and I was just wondering if it is ok to take magnesium with this. Also I’ve just picked up some magnesium from Tesco’s and it says it is magnesium 375mg and vitamin B6 supplement. Will this be ok, or should I look for a better quality magnesium tablet. I’m going through an early perimenopause and I really want to start taking magnesium to combat all the food cravings I am getting. Thank you 😊
Hi Magnesium should be fine but it is best to start at a low dose and work your way up. I would suggest putting the one you have got to one side for the moment and start on 100mg of magnesium citrate, try this for 2 weeks then increase to 100mg twice a day for another 2 weeks or so then try the 375mg (just check what kind of magnesium it is as some are not very absorbable). I would also let your doctor know you are taking it the next time you see them. Magnesium is also good for the heart so may also be of benefit that way too!
Hi Matilda I would look for magnesium citrate products, your local health store should be able to recommend a good quality one for you. You could also check out a company called Solgar which is US based. Best Wishes Eileen
Hi Janine I tend to recommend Silicea Capsules for Hair, Skin and Nails by a company called Hubner, they may take a few months to show benefit but can be really good! Best Wishes Eileen
Hi Deoranee Fatigue and dizziness can indicate low blood pressure so it is important to get these checked out by your doctor first. All symptoms can be made worse with dehydration so remember to drink lots of plain water every day!
Hello good morning. My husband buy me a Calcium, magnesium,&zinc supplement in Holland& Barret do this supplement help? Also B-Complex+Vitamin-C can these supplements help in my menopause? Can I take this even without asking the doctor? Thank you so much.
These supplements can often be of benefit so worth trying for a least a month to see if they are helping. You don’t usually need to ask your doctor first unless you are on lots of prescribed medication for serious health conditions.
@@AvogelCoUk yes , I take Nature s Bounty from Kroger, it has Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc with vitamin D3 , in one tablet I take it with my multivitamin daily , magnesium is 400mg, all you need.
I'm 49 perimenopausal, it is ok to take Dr.best high absorption magnesium without prescription of doctor?? I have palpitations, chest tightness, allergic rhinitis getting worse now, turn to asthma, every time can't breathe normally, ihave anxiety and panic attack, hands and feet tingling, my muscles chilling. Please help, Godbless
Hi Jeanette I am afraid that I don't know this brand of magnesium but such supplements can be bought over the counter from health stores and pharmacies. A magnesium supplement can often be really helpful for symptoms such as the ones you are experiencing so would be worth a try. Best Wishes Eileen
@@jessie9653 I stop taking .magnesium. I took only 2 month's. I'm taking chamomile tea for anxiety now, much more effective for me. And barley grass powder, wheatgrass powder and chlorella powder for my smoothie. It helps me a lot. Try it, it's healthy
Hello Eillen is Nature Made extra strength magnesium(magnesium oxide) 400mg good .i am thinking to take it everyother day because itis 400mg or can i take it daily.this is the only brand and mg i can get .i have all the symptoms. thank you eleni east africa.Ethiopia
Hi Eleni If that's all you can get, then that is fine just try and take with your biggest meal of the day to help with absorption. I would try one a day for best benefits. Best Wishes Eileen
I am 41 and I am in perimenopause stage with scanty bleeding(2 days), hot flashes, night sweat and dizziness. Will Magnesium help in treating dizziness?
Hi Gemma Unfortunately, we can't send to the Philippines, sorry but you can ask at your local health store for a fermented soya supplement which may help just as well. I would also add in a magnesium tablet, approx 150mg twice a day. Best Wishes Eileen
Hi Sam Yes, that should be fine but just start off on 200mg once a day, with food, for a few days. If you feel that you need more just take the other one. Sometimes, even a small amount of extra magnesium can make a lot of difference!
@@jeanettejavier5252 you can buy magnesium supplement at Walmart, also Kroger, called Natural Bounty, Calcium magnesium and zinc and D3, all together in one bottle for 5.00, magnesium is 400mg, I take everyday with my multivitamin, I don't get night sweat or hot flashes, stop completely, notice other symptoms gone too.
Thanks for sharing mam.mam I had no periods for approximately 2 years and now suddenly started with period for 2 months consecutively ,is it all right pl guide.
Hi Shabnam Periods can sometimes return after all this time but there can be a number of reasons such as a 'last fling' by your hormones, stress, changing your diet etc so it is wise just to check with your doctor first for as proper diagnosis Best Wishes Eileen
@@AvogelCoUk thanks mam for the reply. I visited the doctor and she suggested ultrasound of both pelvis and both breast.as I had sever pain in both the dark part of the breast and nipples. Pl suggest.
Hi Shabnam It is important to wait until you get your test results back just so that you know what's happening and why. Without me knowing the cause, it is impossible to recommend something appropriate for you, sorry. Once you know, if you still wish to treat it naturally, then please do get back in touch and I can see if we have any suggestions to help you. Best Wishes Eileen
Hi Regina Yes, but do stick to the recommended dose of the product you buy and make sure that you're not taking any other supplements with magnesium in it. Best Wishes Eileen
hi my name is Linda Roche I txt you before regarding not been able to take magnesium due to taking vesitrim. you gave me a name d another supplement. my mood up and down, fatigue, etc etc. i can't seem to find the answer. can you please send it to me again. thank you so much A Vogel
Hi Maria, Magnesium stearate is used in tablets as a release agent in helping tablets to dissolve, this is not included in a daily magnesium dosage, you would need specific food supplements of some kind to be of benefit.
