In my book, The Magnesium Miracle, I wrote about the following six reasons why magnesium is important in the treatment of asthma:

1. Research shows that many patients with asthma and other bronchial diseases have low magnesium.

2. Both histamine production and bronchial spasms increase with magnesium deficiency.

3. Many drugs used in the treatment of asthma cause a loss of magnesium, only making symptoms worse.

4. Magnesium is an environmental detoxifier reducing the triggers for asthma.

5. Magnesium relieves stress to alleviate the emotional triggers for asthma.

6. Patients treated with simple magnesium supplementation report marked improvement in their symptoms.

I wanted to write a blog about asthma and magnesium because I received this report on magnesium oil being used for asthma in a dog.

The dog owner said that she’d read that asthma is caused by a magnesium deficiency. Since her dog has asthma attacks she decided to start spraying magnesium oil on the dog’s belly and it worked. It prevented attacks and it also stopped an attack if she applied it as soon as one occurred. She said the best way to apply the magnesium is to spray it on your hand or a cotton ball and rub it on the dog’s skin keeping it from running into the private parts. The magnesium is salty and oily so it can be irritating and in that case would need to be diluted with water.

When I first wrote The Magnesium Miracle, I realized that many people can’t take oral magnesium because of the laxative effect. Therefore I began advising people to put supersaturated magnesium chloride—called magnesium oil on their skin to bypass the intestines. It also stimulates DHEA production that occurs in the skin. And it can be used it in baths and foot baths for muscle aches, joint pain, and foot pain and neuropathy.

You can dilute the magnesium oil 50:50 with distilled water or coconut oil and apply 1-2 tsp on your skin every day. Or you can apply full strength magnesium oil all over your body and leave on for at least 30 minutes, then shower off because it gets itchy when it dries. One ounce of oil is a sufficient amount to put in a bath. I use LL’s Magnesium Oil.

How much magnesium are you getting with magnesium oil? According to some manufacturers the amount of magnesium chloride per teaspoon is about 2,500 mg. However, that’s not the amount of magnesium or the amount that will be absorbed. There is 60mg of magnesium in 500 mg of magnesium chloride. Therefore the amount of magnesium in a tsp is about 300 mg, which is a normal dose of oral magnesium.

You have many choices when it comes to magnesium. I use all of them at one time or another: Natural Calm magnesium powder, magnesium oil, magnesium flakes and angstrom magnesium. I’m off to have my magnesium flakes and clay bath right now!

I spent the morning at the Swap Meet (farmer’s market) in Kahului with my friend, Barbara-Ann (the best masseuse in the world) where we were blitzing everyone with our bubble gun. Everyone loves bubbles, especially kids. So, I came home ready to do a blog dedicated to our most precious resource.

A recent Medscape article talks about “the short supply of drugs used to treat ADHD, including certain brands and dosages of dextroamphetamine with amphetamine (Adderall, Shire PLC) and methylphenidate (Ritalin, Novartis).”

Apparently doctors and parents are outraged that the DEA is controlling the amount of amphetamines their children are getting. Personally, I think the drug companies are causing this shortage in order to get the doctors and parents to force the DEA to allow more speed to be used on kids.

But why are we drugging kids in the first place?

This week, Abby Nelson sent me her article called, 10 Common Medications your Child Should Never Take. It’s a very thorough piece explaining the side effects of medications commonly given to kids.

Let’s get this straight; our kids are not suffering from an amphetamine deficiency or any other drug deficiency! They are suffering nutrient deficiencies. And simple nutritional formulas treat them every bit as well as drugs…and without the added side effects of stunting their growth and the potential of turning them into drug addicts.

But why medicate when you can give your child safe supplements? My overall supplement recommendation is Kids Calm Multi. It’s a liquid supplement by Natural Vitality that contains organic fruits and vegetables, DHA, EPA, amino acids along with A, B, C, D, magnesium, zinc and calcium. You can get it at a deep discount at my favorite online retailer VitaCost.com.

I’m a big supporter of Natural Vitality and highly recommend their environmentally aware online magazine Organic Connections. This month’s issue features a 14-year old beekeeper, chicken farmer, and sustainable-food advocate, Orren Fox. This young man is a true testament to the immense benefits of natural living.

To learn more about safe and effective natural remedies, read my booklets, Kids Health: A Doctor’s Guide for Parents and Homeopathic Remedies for Children’s Common Ailments and my article on Natural News, Homeopathy for Children’s Emotional Health.

If you feel your child is toxic from vaccines and junk food, you can offer soothing baths in detoxifying clay and magnesium. I recommend the Natural Clay and Magnesium Flakes at LL’s Magnetic Clay. Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) may be a substitute but I’ve had parents who have tested different brands and found they contained measurable levels of mercury. So, I can’t recommend Epsom salts for kids.

Of course, I should mention diet. It’s important to limit your child’s intake of sugar and rotate wheat and dairy so that they don’t eat these foods every day. Encourage them to eat vegetables and fruits and stay away from processed and fried foods. A client of mine who took my advice and turned her kids health around is writing a recipe book. I’ll let you know when it’s available.

Join me tonight, 8pm EST for the launch of Kathi Casey’s new teleseminar series, “Permanent Weight Loss IS Possible!” It’s free and it will be fun and informative.

In tonight’s seminar, I’ll be explaining how toxins, like excess stress hormones for example, make it more difficult for our bodies to lose the fat we are trying to get rid of, and how we can detox easily and quickly.

In Today’s Blog, Kathi shared a link to a TV show I did about yeast overgrowth with Dr. Becker. But tonight I’ll be focusing on how yeast can lead to inflammatory weight gain.

Here are three of Kathi’s weight loss tips to wet your appetite for more!

“1. Drink more green tea. Green tea leaves aren’t fermented like black, so they contain the highest concentration of catechins (powerful antioxidants). Studies have shown that drinking several cups of green tea a day can lower “bad” (LDL) cholesterol and promote weight loss!

2. Plan your grocery shopping! We really need to get back to the days of making a list with the entire week in mind, including bringing your own lunch to work! That’s how my parents shopped when I was a kid. There was no stopping for take-out on a rushed day back then. We know our schedule and can plan ahead so that on busy days we toss dinner in a slow cooker before we leave in the morning, or make double lasagna one week and freeze half for our busy day next week. It only takes a little planning to cut out a huge amount of extra fat, calories, and cost from our weekly meal plans! And don’t forget to bring your reusable shopping bags to the grocery store…

3. Smoothies are a great all natural treat! Keep a bowl of fruit on the kitchen table or counter with the blender right next to it. Teach everyone in the family how to make nutritious and tasty smoothies at home and start a healthy new family routine.”

People from all over the world have already signed up for “Permanent Weight Loss IS Possible!” Join us and you can send in your own questions for the Q&A section of the seminar. And, as an extra bonus, you can purchase my Completement Now! Online Wellness Program for half price!

It’s your choice. You can buy Kathi Casey’s book, Get Off The Couch, Potato! or Dr. Mercola $5,699 machine that will shake your belly fat off!

Here’s where I say, “Lord Suffering Cats! Is that any choice at all?”

Perhaps this machine is made of gold?

And what does it do? It SHAKES OFF BELLY FAT. How gullible are we to spend all our hard-earned money on something you should be able to do by running around the block a few times a week? Or maybe “the placebo effect” of spending all that money will make it work!

Instead of a belly-shaking machine, I recommend following Kathi’s month-long fitness program outlined in Get Off The Couch, Potato! where she coaches you on how to improve your lifestyle in order to attain all-round health, while losing weight.

On Tuesday, January 17, 2012, I help Kathi kick off a teleseminar series that is part of the swag-bag of gifts you receive when you purchase her book.

Kathi’s Get Off the Couch, Potato! book is not only fun and funny but it’s the perfect solution for over-worked parents, television-addicted teens, out-of-shape Baby Boomers, and more. Her book will make you laugh and provide you with many tips and tools so you can take charge of your own health.

Her bonus gifts are from today’s leaders in self-help, mind body spirit, and social media. So, order your copy of Kathi Casey’s book “Get Off the Couch, Potato!” today!

Besides doing the teleseminar, I’m also giving away my How to Change Your Life With Magnesium ebook, as well as a special $97.00 offer on my $240.00 Completement Now! 2-year wellness program.

So, get off the couch and join.

In the first few days of 2012 I’ve been inundated with emails about magnesium.

1. A reader wanted me to know that she thinks magnesium is going big-time because she heard a local talk radio advertising MagOx and saw a TV ad for Phillips Caplets. Both are magnesium oxide products for constipation.

She knows I say magnesium oxide is only 4% absorbed so it’s bound to cause the laxative effect, yet, not give you enough magnesium for other important functions. But we both agreed that at least some information about magnesium is getting out there. But I did find out that MagOx is covered by Medicaid. But avoid Phillips Caplets because of the “added ingredients” Microcrystalline Cellulose, Croscarmellose Sodium, Pregelatinized Starch, Stearic Acid, Polyvinyl Alcohol, Titanium Dioxide, Polyethylene Glycol, Talc, Silicon Dioxide.

TALC…Lord Suffering Cats!

2. A young woman wrote that she has terrible migraines and in the past six months has experienced severe leg cramps, muscle spasms, constant twitches, soreness, and aching. Her doctor did some blood work and found a folic acid deficiency but didn’t look for magnesium. Adding folic acid did nothing. Then she remembered reading something about magnesium for migraines. She had tried it years ago and seen improvement in her migraines, but stopped because she found herself constantly running to the bathroom. She asked me what to do.

I get the laxative effect with any amount and any kind of magnesium tablets. I told her that my solution to the laxative effect is to use angstrom magnesium. I also use magnesium flakes in my daily bath.

Angstrom magnesium is fairly new on the supplement scene. I’ve written about it and given case histories in my $5.00 eBook, How to Change Your Life with Magnesium. I’ve validated its effectiveness for myself snd a veterinarian friend tells me about his incredible case histories. He says the angstrom mineral liquids work as well as IV minerals for his animal patients.

Standard minerals are broken down into a size between a nanometer and a picometer. Very Small. But that’s the size of the ion channels that allow minerals inside our cells. So, angstrom minerals are very low potency but are said to be 100% absorbed into the cells. Thus, no laxative effect and relief of symptoms.

3. A gentleman from Brooklyn wanted to know about the availability of magnesium intravenous therapy. I told him to use angstrom minerals and transdermal magnesium. According to Dr. Norm Shealy, you can increase your blood levels of magnesium using transdermal magnesium oil faster than with IV magnesium.

4. A dutiful granddaughter, convinced that her grandmother’s angina would benefit from magnesium, bemoaned the fact that I don’t see patients and that her doctor didn’t “believe” in supplements. I told her that nobody could argue with putting Epsom salts into a footbath that would allow her body to absorb enough magnesium to make a difference.

I tend to receive questions about depression around the holidays. It’s a time when families get jumbled together and are forced to interact, dragging up past hurts and traumas. I don’t treat depression over the phone but refer to a treatment that works offered at Truehope. EMPowerplus is a high potency vitamin/mineral formula for depression that has an 80% effectiveness compared with a JAMA study conclusion that three quarters of the benefit from antidepressants seems to be a placebo effect.

A friend from Canada, Anthony Stephan, felt forced to come up with a solution for two of his children heavily medicated for bipolar disorder. His wife had committed suicide a few years before and Tony was desperate. He spoke with a friend at church, David Hardy, who had spent twenty years as an animal feed formulator. Hardy said that the bipolar behavior of Stephan’s son, Joe, sounded to him like a pig with ear-and-tail-biting syndrome. Furthermore, Hardy told him that some farmers had successfully used a nutritional supplementation program to control the syndrome.

Using Hardy’s extensive knowledge of pig feed supplementation, the two men formulated a human version of the regimen, using human grade supplements. Stephan’s children responded to the formula and were able to discontinue their medications. As they recovered and began to resume healthy lives, word spread through their communities. Stephan and Hardy were happy to share their regimen and soon there were hundreds of people trying this early version of what is now EMPowerplus.

You can read more about the Discovery of EMPowerplus and be amazed at the testimonials and 14 research papers published in peer-reviewed journals showing that much of depression is related to nutritional deficiencies.

For anxiety I often recommend the Linden Method that you can access online. And I’m also exploring The Healing Codes and Healing Codes Program by Drs. Alex Loyd and Ben Johnson. The Codes neutralize negative memories. For me, the Healing Codes provide tools that can be applied to the theories of German New Medicine…which states that physical illness is a result of mental trauma.

All in all, there are many alternative therapies for the mental stress and trauma that affect many of us so that we aren’t forced to take antidepressants that may not work but always produce side effects.

I realize that I’ve been lazy about my clay baths and not keeping you properly informed. Don’t get me wrong, I take one almost every day but I’ve just been using the natural clay and not the ones with added herbs and charcoal.

I was reminded about this a few days ago when a reader asked me what I thought about using activated charcoal for detox. Fortunately, LL’s Magnetic Clay has the answer. They have incorporated activated charcoal as a detox agent in several of their clay formulas.

Activated charcoal is a form of carbon that has been processed to make it extremely porous giving it a very large surface area available for adsorption of toxins and chemicals.

The list of LL’s Clay Baths that include charcoal are:
Clear-Out
Smoker’s/Drug Detox
Dental/Mercury Detox
Aluminum, Copper & Lead Detox.
Tox-Away,
Arsenic, and Environmental
Radiation

For more details about the various detoxes, go to this page: What Clay Detox Bath Do I Use?

Several Clay Baths also contain herbal formulas that help tweak the detox in a specific direction. I haven’t been using them because I didn’t want to go through the bother of scraping them out of the tub at the end of my bath. But, DUH, I realize all you need to do is put the herbs in a piece of gauze, tie them up and throw them away at the end.

You can use several cups of clay in a bath at one time for a deep detox. Because I rebel against scooping the clay out of my bath at the end, I just blend up 1/2 cup of clay with 32oz of water and pour that into my tub. Blending makes sure the clay doesn’t clump and it runs down the drain without any problems. I also like to think it detoxes the environment! And I take a daily bath instead of once or twice a week, so in the long run I’m using 3.5 cups clay per week.

Here are few suggestions from clay users. One person says she doesn’t have a blender so she mixes her clay into a 2-quart jar of water, using chopsticks. She lets it sit and stirs it every time she come into her bathroom and it’s all blended after a few hours and several stirs. Another of my blog readers reminds people to open their bathroom window or have the vents on when you use a clay bath. She said the clay pulled so much toxicity from her that she could smell the fumes of old chemicals she’d been exposed to in her youth! The most recent question was whether they are safe for septic tanks…and the clay instructions online and with your clay assure that they are.

Events: Go to Kim Greenhouse’s website and listen to a Dec 22, 2011 interview on Magnificent Magnesium and Much More.

Most of what I share with you in my blogs comes from personal experience. And there is one therapy I’ve been holding back on. Coffee enemas.

I guess I didn’t want your responses to degenerate into locker room humor. But the effectiveness of coffee enemas as a potent liver and intestinal detoxifier can no longer be denied.

In the past week I read something about estrogens accumulating because of entero-hepatic recirculation. Also, an online autism seminar focused on entero-hepatic recirculation being a problem for continued reabsorption of toxins in these children.

You can read about enterohepatic recycling of bile salts in Wikipedia. However, know that “numerous drugs undergo elimination via the bile in the unchanged or conjugated form. Drugs eliminated in the bile are available for absorption in the GI tract. This re-entry into the body after ‘elimination’ via the bile results in the “recycling” of drug and prolongs the time required for the drug to be irreversibly eliminated from the body.”

That’s part of the reason why drugs can become so toxic. They are reabsorbed along with bile salts back to the liver where they are reprocessed in ways that can make them infinitely more toxic than the original. Yet another reason to look for safe solutions to your health problems!

My paternal grandmother was the head nurse of a fever hospital in Montreal. They used high colonic enemas to treat their patients. Lowering fevers and removing infectious toxins was easily accomplished with this therapy. But it fell out of favor when the “scientific” method of drug therapy gained precedence.

I learned about coffee enemas when reading A Cancer Therapy: results of Fifty Cases and the Cure of Advanced Cancer by Dr. Max Gerson and Charlotte Gerson. That book was written in 1958 and is just as powerful now in its promise of a natural cure to cancer. One of the most important modalities in the Gerson Therapy is coffee enemas.

I’m honored to be on the Board of the Gerson Institute and support the ceaseless efforts of Charlotte Gerson, now in her 90th year, and her son Howard Straus. Another friend, Dr. Nicholas Gonzalas prescribes coffee enemas for his treatment of cancer. With his natural therapies, he has one of the best cure rates of pancreatic cancer. At the Gerson Institute and Dr. Gonzalas’s office, patients, staff and practitioners all benefit from this modality.

In this short blog, I won’t have time to go into the details of performing a coffee enema or even all the attributes. For more information read the Biological Basis for Coffee Enemas and Liver Detoxification with Coffee Enemas. This site has sensible enema instructions. And, of course, I would use organic coffee. The one thing I would add is to be sure and take a good probiotic on the days you are doing coffee enemas. My recommendation is Prescript Assist. Also, heed my warning below “Only you can know if something is helping you. If you don’t feel well doing a therapy, listen to your body and stop doing it! Knowing when to Not do something is a big part of taking responsibility for your health.”

Add coffee enemas to your list of safe, inexpensive and effective solutions that include clay baths, magnesium baths, coconut oil and food-based supplements…all of which I have listed below.

You can create miracles this holiday season with my magnesium books and magnesium supplements. Give magnesium presents to everyone to show that you care.

To remind you of the importance of magnesium, here are some recent testimonials.

1. From a 39 year old woman.

“I just want to say “Thank You” for your awesome book about magnesium. Armed with what I learned in that book, I figured out why I’d been having difficulty sleeping through the night for over a year. I had always slept perfectly my whole life until suddenly I began waking up in the night and having trouble falling back to sleep even though I slept in total darkness, ate healthy and even used herbs to promote restful sleep. I wasn’t until I began taking 800 mg of magnesium glycinate/day that I finally have what I was longing for! I now go to sleep and sleep solidly the entire night. It’s so wonderful not to dread bedtime anymore. I recommend your book to people every chance I get.

2. Another reader says she’s soaking, sipping and saturating with magnesium and loving it.

3. A Mom reports on her child.

“My son has reacted wonderfully to the magnesium. His homework is going much better and school seems easier.”

4. A military wife wrote a review of the Magnesium Miracle on amazon.com quoted the following passage about head injury and recommended that magnesium be used for everyone in the military.

“A magnesium deficit from head injury is slow to reverse. According to neurosurgeon Dr. Russell Blaylock, magnesium takes thirty minutes to get into the spinal fluid; three hours to reach the cortical area directly under the skull; and a full four to six hours for sufficient amounts of magnesium to reach the deep brain tissues. Experiments with Navy SEALs and marathon runners show that after a month of intensive training, they experience magnesium deficiency and, if no supplements are taken, the deficiency is still present three to six months later.”

5. From a Nurse of 28 years who says she’s finally awakened from the great deception occurring in medicine.

“Dr.Carolyn, just wanted to thank you for your book the Magnesium Miracle. I had a limp and joint pain, found out the fluorides were leaching out my magnesium and when I began drinking reverse osmosis water and taking a liquid calcium and magnesium and Vit D supplement in the proper ratios the limp went away the first day and the bone pain in my left hip disappeared in 6 months and the joint pain and swelling disappeared.”

I’m serious. Give the Magnesium Miracle and magnesium products to your loved ones for the holidays. There is no more lasting gift than good health.
