Proctalgia fugax is a scary sounding Latin name that means “fleeting rectal pain.” But the really scary part is that doctors don’t know what causes it even though it occurs in a high percentage of the population, anywhere from 3-14%. A doctor friend recently wrote and asked me whether magnesium would help with proctalgia fugax. It’s a severe, episodic, rectal and sacrococcygeal pain caused by cramping of the pubococcygeus or levator ani muscles (anal sphincter). The pain is described as sharp, stabbing, twisting, cramping, or lancinating in nature. With all the conditions associated with magnesium I’ve somehow overlooked proctalgia fugax. When I review my health history, however, I realize I used to suffer from this condition! I’ve never mentioned it to anyone before. It would happen during my monthly menses. Out of the clear blue I would get a knife-like pain through my anus and it would pass within a minute or two. It think it began when I was in medical school and suffering a very high magnesium burn rate! Because it’s a muscle spasm, I know that for me and probably for most people, proctalgia fugax is a magnesium deficiency condition! What’s the standard medical treatment? Inhaled Ventolin (asthma drug), calcium channel blockers, Valium and Botox injections have been prescribed in an effort to relax the anal sphincter. The doctors get close to the cause by using calcium channel blockers but ignore the fact that magnesium is a natural calcium channel blocker. Other causes of rectal pain are hemorrhoids (accompanied by bleeding) or anal fissures (with extended periods of pain, not fleeting pain). My doctor friend asked if I would recommend magnesium suppositories for this condition. I don’t think you have to be so specific. If you have spasming anal sphincter muscles, that means your whole body is deficient. I’ve experienced leg, foot and back cramps, heart palpitations, eye muscle twitching and rectal pain at various times as part of my magnesium deficiency picture. So the treatment is to saturate your whole body with magnesium by taking oral magnesium, using magnesium oil and bathing in magnesium salts.

A review article in the CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal) was directed at family doctors to help them diagnose and treat fibromyalgia and take it out of the specialty of Rheumatology. The article states that fibromyalgia is a chronic condition that affects the central nervous system causing pain throughout the body. It is usually accompanied by fatigue, depression and sleep problems and affects mostly women. These multiple symptoms often go on for years without a proper diagnosis and treatment. The authors recommend exercise, relaxation techniques and behavioral therapy along with medications for fatigue, depression pain and sleep problems. The main treatment goal is to improve quality of life by alleviating the most troublesome symptom(s), with pain recognized as the most common and serious. When fibromyalgia first started appearing in the late 1980’s I recognized it in my patients who had yeast overgrowth and I saw that the successful treatment of yeast would help alleviate their symptoms. Then when I began to research magnesium and use that more liberally, I found that the combination of yeast treatment and magnesium would help most patients with fibromyalgia. I write the following in my Future Health Now Encyclopedia. “According to practitioners of natural medicine, fibromyalgia may be the painful endpoint after years of stress, trauma, immunizations, fatigue, infections, and a bad diet. … a lifetime of illness and medication can cause yeast overgrowth and lead to fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. The toxins from viruses, yeast, parasites, and a bad diet invariably find their way to the joints and muscles in a large portion of the population. The painful result, according to classical Chinese medicine, is actually a protective mechanism in order to divert these pathogens away from your internal organs. Knowing this should be a wake-up call to reduce your various stressors. The result for some is arthritis, as it mostly affects the joints; for others, it culminates in fibromyalgia, which mostly affects the muscles.” Treating widespread toxic inflammation caused by toxins from viruses, yeast, parasites a bad diet and drug with MORE drugs simply adds to the problem and all drugs drain the body of magnesium. Drug treatment of fibromyalgia makes no sense. For effective treatment options go to the advice on the Yeast Connection Website and work to regulate the yeast in your body. And take magnesium, lots of it, in all forms. For guidance on magnesium intake, go to my Resources page under Recommended Supplements and google my name and magnesium. You can also download the eBook or Kindle version of Future Health Now Encyclopedia and get the print or Kindle version of The Magnesium Miracle to learn much more. The Facebook page, Magnesium Advocacy Group is a private forum where people share their experiences and ask questions about magnesium. Regarding today’s news that Angelie Jolie just underwent a double mastectomy to PREVENT breast cancer, I just Facebooked the following: “I’m very concerned that women will make the mistake of following her lead. Genes don’t control our bodies and don’t control breast cancer. They proved that in the Genome Project but scientists won’t admit it. One of the main causes of cancer that I learned from my studies in Total Biology is CONFLICT. Your mind gets overloaded with a huge conflict and deposits the conflict in the body as a physical symptom as a SOLUTION to the conflict. I’ll probably go into this in more detail on our Payday…I’m In Charge Radio Show at Achieve Radio, 4pm PST today.” RECOMMENDATIONS: To get well and stay well, join my 2-year online wellness program called Completement Now!

Here is a sample of articles from various medical journals that I get in my inbox every day that set my teeth on edge. 1. Emergency department visits for adverse reactions related to the sleep drug zolpidem (Ambien, Edluar, and Zolpimist) increased by almost 220% in a recent 5-year period, according to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). 2. The genetics of acute myeloid leukemia have proven to be more complex than previously recognized. 3. Using selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) before surgery has been linked to an increased risk of bleeding, transfusion, hospital readmission, and death, new research shows. 4. A report from the Mayo Clinic suggests some patients on the hypertension drug olmesartan (Benicar) are at risk for severe intestinal inflammation. 5.The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a new lipid-lowering combination tablet that includes atorvastatin (Lipitor), which went off patent in 2011, and ezetimibe (Zetia or Ezetrol). 6. The one bright light in the whole list is a CMAJ study “Naturopathic medicine for the prevention of cardiovascular disease: a randomized clinical trial” showing that the addition of naturopathic care to standard medical care may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease among those at high risk. I got in touch with the chief author of the study and he assured me that magnesium was part of the standard protocol for naturopathic care. This study is a huge breakthrough because it’s not just focused on one supplement in naturopathic care to show whether it “works” or not. It measures the whole picture of naturopathic care and finds positive benefits. Take that, allopathic medicine and see if you can do better with your Death by Modern Medicine! MEDIA Dr. Dean – Live!

Do you walk the Emmaus Road or the Road to Damascus? Or are you standing still in the middle of the road hesitant to take a step either way? I liken what I offer in my blogs, books and Completement Now! online wellness program to the slow journey on the Emmaus Road. The other part of my life that I’ve not shared until recently is the miraculous and immediate Road to Damascus. I’m now in my 65th year on the planet and while other people might think of retirement, I’m really just beginning. What’s been presented to me in this last few years is the Road to Damascus which I’m exploring in my first ever Radio Show. I’ve been a guest on thousands of radio shows but now I have my own 2-hour call-in show: Live with Dr. Dean! on Achieve Radio every Monday at 4pm PST with my host Virginia Gunther. I’ve been observing health trends for over 45 years and I see people getting increasingly desperate for someone to help “fix” them and their problems. In the U.S., because we expect someone else to take care of us, we’re submitted our minds and bodies to drug- and surgery-based disease-care. But, since we can’t medicate ourselves out of a disease we’ve behaved ourselves into, we’re mired in a hopeless tangle. The support and advice I offer to people in the form of books, blogs and my wellness program just don’t seem enough. People want miracles. And it seems that I’ve gotten it all wrong urging you to take responsibility for your own health. You see, our health is a Given but we’ve all but given it away. And, that’s the basis of the Road to Damascus, miraculous transformation, knowing that your health is a Given. All my life, I’ve been blessed with being ahead of my “time” and a pioneer on the leading edge. Some might say it’s also a curse because few people understand me, least of all my medical colleagues who think I’m a threat to the “standard practice of medicine.” Arthur C. Clarke’ said that “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” I direct people to The Magnesium Advocacy Group on Facebook and recently someone on a thread there said my patent-pending RnA Drops were gobbledygook. I’ve described in great detail the RnA Drops in my iCell Patent which is available online and discussed the drops in several blogs and articles: It’s the RNA not the DNA. RnA Drops Tribute Show and Programming RNA: The Future of Medicine. But for people who think this “advanced technology” just seems like “magic,” and magic offends you, then please don’t engage. I’m not “trying to tell you something or sell you something” that you don’t intuitively feel attracted to. If I did that, I would be prescribing and you would make me responsible for your outcome. For me it’s a huge step to be involved with creating products at all but if that also offends you, like I said previously, you don’t have to engage.

On my early morning walk around the golf course I saw one of the workers who enthused that the supplements I had gifted him for the past several months had cured his diabetes! He’d been feeling so much better but he never expected that his doctor would take him off his diabetes medication. I’ll tell you in a minute what I gave him, but first, this is what your doctor is going to give you if your blood sugar becomes elevated. According to the new recommendations from the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE) their new treatment “algorithm” involves every FDA approved class of medication for managing hyperglycemia. There is no mention of magnesium deficiency as a sign or diabetes or of using chromium, the B vitamins or Vitamin C to help balance blood sugar. I gave my retirement-age friend – Energy 28, NutraRev, Organic Life Vitamins and Natural Calm magnesium powder from Natural Vitality. I told him to just take the suggested dose on the labels. Many people don’t want to swallow pills, so half the battle is offering something that people will take consistently. Natural Vitality has a 40% discount for my blog readers, so if you want something that works and is easy to take, why not give it a try. Got to the Natural Vitality Store and put (magnesium-miracle) in the coupon box at check out. Folks, this is not brain surgery! This is simply giving your body the nutrients it may be lacking. Medicine makes people think that conditions like high blood pressure, high blood sugar and high cholesterol are insurmountable and require drugs for life. But drugs can never treat conditions you “behaved” yourself into! Taking care of your health with nutrients, starting with magnesium, will help you stay out of doctors’ offices and hospitals. After you read my latest article on Natural News you’ll see why. Surgical Errors Too Profitable To Stop! confirms everything I wrote in Death by Modern Medicine. My article was picked up by Lisa Collier Cool at Yahoo Health who in her article Study: Hospitals ‘Profit Handsomely’ From Surgical Errors quoted my statistics that “Eleven common medical mistakes resulted in 895,936 deaths in 2008, according to an analysis of published research by Carolyn Dean, MD, ND, author of Death By Modern Medicine: Seeking Safer Solutions. ‘If medical error was a disease, it would be the leading cause of death in the US.’” It’s a crying shame that allopathic medicine is not going to embrace what natural medicine has to offer. Thus, it continues to be our responsibility to take care of our own health. I’m doing what I can to offer wellness programs and products that can make a difference. I’m also a member of the National Health Freedom Coalition which will meet in Chicago, June 5 & 6, 2013. One of our goals is: “To work together to identify strategies for enhanced health freedom.” We need to do more than identify goals, however, we need action! At this point in our so-called evolution we have no health freedom. Allopathic medicine has a monopoly on our health even though their mandate is to diagnose disease and treat disease symptoms with drugs or surgery. We have to take our health back into our own hands.

Huffington Post is an online site that attracts millions of viewers. But nobody took much interest in an article titled “PCSK9 Inhibitors: New Class Of Cholesterol Drugs Shows Promise In Trials.” Since it published Nov 5, 2012 only 9 people shared it on Facebook. I think this lack of interest in yet another cholesterol drug shows the public’s distrust and disdain for drug-solutions. After all, we’ve been medicating ourselves with statins for decades and heart disease is still our number one killer which means that statins are not working! The public also knows that statin drugs are causing serious side effects. But is the answer a new cholesterol drug? Cholesterol is a red herring and NOT the bad guy in heart disease. Dr. Stephen Sinatra’s new book, The Great Cholesterol Myth labels inflammation as the true cause of heart disease and sugar the real demon in the diet. It’s true that inflammation is a major cause of heart disease. But sugar isn’t the main cause of inflammation. Calcium is. Calcium is pro-inflammatory and magnesium is anti-inflammatory. Magnesium is a natural calcium channel blocker, a natural statin, and balances blood sugar and eliminates metabolic syndrome. Along with magnesium, a nutrient that helps balance cholesterol is niacin, Vitamin B3. A recent study using a dangerous time-release form of niacin and a cholesterol drug together somehow concluded that niacin is ineffective in reducing cholesterol levels. Did I mention that the study used a dangerous form of niacin? I’m on the Advisory Board of OMNS (Orthomolecular Medicine News Service). We recently put out a Press release to counter the flaws in this erroneous study. It’s called Niacin is the Safest and Most Effective Way to Control Cholesterol. March 21, 2013. Journalist, Lisa Collier Cool cited our report in an article on Yahoo Health! called The Safest (and Cheapest) Cholesterol Treatment. Compared to the 9 Facebook forwards on the newest cholesterol drug, when she interviewed me about magnesium, Lisa told me her niacin article received millions of hits and was the most well-received article she has ever written. It now has 7,600 Facebook forwards. Today, Wed Apr 17, 2013, my new best friend, Lisa is doing another article on heart disease, this time with a focus on magnesium. Let’s see how many Facebook forwards this article generates and how many people can be educated about magnesium. I can assure you, if you don’t start looking at safe supplements like magnesium and niacin (NOT Time-Release niacin) for cholesterol, you will be subject to the following Canadian Diabetic Association Guidelines. “All patients with diabetes should start taking statins when they turn 40 and blood pressure drugs when they turn 55.” This is preventive medicine at its Worst!

A reviewer of The Magnesium Miracle on Amazon shares her story about magnesium. “This book truly was miraculous for me. I had been experiencing heart irregularities for several years, then suddenly my heart was bouncing around like there was a small animal in my chest. I would become very ill, full of dread and almost pass out. I thought my end was nigh. This went on for three or four days. My doctor sent me to a specialist who changed my meds, which only made me more ill and did nothing for the condition. He also booked me for a chemical stress test. However, I felt that I would never make it before the day arrived so I googled “irregular heart beat”. Lo and behold up came numerous reports, including Dr. Carolyn Dean’s, all talking about magnesium. I immediately went out and purchased magnesium. Within 24 hours my heart was beating normally for the first time in a long, long while. For me, this was a miracle. I then became angry with my doctor and specialist for not telling me about this life saving nutrient. I truly believe my life was in danger. I am now readng everything I can get on the subject. The Magnesium Miracle is excellent. Thank you Dr. Carolyn.” Yet, what is allopathic medicine doing about arrhythmias like atrial fibrillation in the face of these miraculous reports about magnesium? One report shows them looking at the kidney rennin-angiotenin system trying to find drugs to switch off this system to prevent arrhythmias. The paper I’m reading admits that “While the precise cause of atrial fibrillation has not yet been definitively elucidated… left atrial dilation and fibrosis and electrical remodeling are thought to play central roles.” Well, I’m sure most people reading my blogs know the answer to those questions. Too much calcium and not enough magnesium can rewire the heart and cause erratic firing. And, the structure of the heart can be affected by calcification of arteries in the face of magnesium deficiency. I found a journal article that said “magnesium stimulates renin release through the elevation of prostaglandins and suppresses aldosterone production through the intracellular calcium mobilization.” Another said that there is a “salutary effect for magnesium supplementation in the treatment of Angiotensin II-induced myocardial complications.” So, they admit that magnesium can be an answer to the rennin-angiotensin problem. Yet, doctors blatantly ignore the obvious and continue to treat with drugs that cause even more magnesium deficiency, which they treat with more drugs. One such antiarrhythmia drug, Amiodarone has just been linked to an increased cancer risk in men. This drug is notorious for its numerous side effects, so why don’t they pull it and replace it with magnesium? The CDC reports that hypertension and use of blood pressure medications is on the rise in the US. Many people are stressed and are burning up their magnesium. What are you waiting for? While I encourage supplementation, I’m also asking you to get a $49.00 Magnesium RBC test to check your baseline levels. If your doctor won’t order it, go to Request-A-Test. When you get your results, remember that you want to be at least above 6mg/dL, even if the range of the lab is 4.2-6.8. Go to my Resources page on my website to research the various types of magnesium you can safely use. And don’t expect magnesium to change a life-long magnesium deficiency overnight. It’s not a drug, it’s a necessary food for your body. You can feel better in many ways almost immediately on magnesium. But to reverse magnesium-deficiency high blood pressure or arrhythmias may take some time. RECOMMENDATIONS: To get well and stay well, join my 2-year online wellness program called Completement Now!

I’ve had a tremendous influx of new people signing up for my free newsletter asking questions about cancer and other very serious diseases. Although I do have a telephone consulting practice I don’t usually work with cancer patients. I refer such cases to the Gerson Clinic in Mexico and to my friend Dr. Judy Seeger at Fast Cancer Cures. Dr. Seeger is a naturopath who has specialized in cancer detox and cancer treatment for over 30 years. If someone can’t afford the thousands of dollars it would cost to fly to Mexico with a caregiver and pay for a hospital stay, they can often achieve the same beneficial results at home. I won’t go into the insanity of Not having access to alternative medicine treatment for cancer in the U.S. You can read all about that in my Death by Modern Medicine eBook. I’d rather spend our time together telling you that cancer is a state of conflict created in the body by tremendous stress including toxicity. The stress of a cancer diagnosis is probably the worst kind of stress. Therefore, having a practitioner like Dr. Seeger who you can rely on to guide you through a detoxification program and who is also available for one-on-one consulting is a godsend. Dr. Seeger’s program can be for treatment of cancer or prevention. On the Fast Cancer Cures home page there is a free webinar that I did with Dr. Seeger giving a lot of useful information on cancer detox. You can find it on the right hand side of the page in the fourth box. Another program that’s available to help guide your health is the Healthy Life Summit that I participated in a few weeks ago. They polled the people who listened to the event and my talk received the most votes for a special free replay of five interviews, today, Monday April 1, 2013. Also, the whole package, including 35 speaker audios with accompanying power points, is available for sale at a discounted price until Wed Apr 3, 2013 at The Healthy Life Summit. But today you can hear five interviews for free, including mine. If you missed my Coast to Coast 2-hour interview about drugs that deplete magnesium or want to hear it again, you can find it at RnA Radio. Today’s Magnesium Miracle is from Cathy on Facebook: The Magnesium Advocacy Group, which everyone is welcome to join. Cathy says: “I have always had a strange amount of arthritis and inflammation. I had such damage to jaw joints both sides had to be replaced at age 30. Five years later my foot was so painful I had surgery on that to clean out arthritis and fix big toe issues. By 40 I was prescribed anti depressants, ADHD stimulant, birth control, muscle relaxer and anti anxiety meds! And I STILL HAD PAIN and it was really starting to affect my activities of daily life! I researched natural remedies and started taking a Systemic enzyme. Within a month the pain and inflammation went down in my foot. I still had those nagging head and neck pains (apparently surgery could stop me from doing more damage to my jaw joints but the muscle pain from the clenching persisted). My Chiropractor recommended Magnesium oil. So I tried it and OMG my pain subsided! I then read Carolyn Dean’s Book The Magnesium Miracle! It all made so much sense… I was Magnesium deficient! So I start my whole mag supplementing routine. Mag rich foods, Oral Mag, Mag oil, Mag baths, Mag soap, Mag shampoo etc! My friends and family started teasing me because anyone who crossed my path with a problem, bad attitude or an ugly look I would say “They must be magnesium deficient!” I finally know what it feels like to walk around without head and neck pain for the first time in my life!

Here is a wonderful statement from a post on the Magnesium Advocacy Group on Facebook. “I experienced anxiety and depression for over 45 years. After deciding to taper off my mood stablizer Gabapentin, I experienced severe withdrawal, I was able to find relief from this withdrawal by using full body soaks with Epsom Salts (Magnesium Sulfate) and a Epsom Salts gargle. Roughly 48 hours after initiating this treatment my anxiety and depression were gone and so was my gabapentin withdrawal. I now supplement my magnesium with 875 mg. ReMag and 250 mg. Jigsaw magnesium w/srt. I have been anxiety and depression free since I began magnesium supplementation. Both of these magnesium supplements are well absorbed. One important lesson I had to learn when supplementing with magnesium is to listen to my body, it will tell you what is working and what doesn’t work. It is advisable to slowly increase your magnesium supplements, many people have given up on magnesium because they didn’t understand that it requires patience and hard work and a determination to not give up just because you may have an initial negative response to magnesium supplements. I experienced this myself but I had convincing proof of magnesiums benefits from the beginning so I was determined to see it through. Magnesium has reduced my headaches to the point I no longer need to take pain medicine, the nerve pain from damaged nerves in my lower back has been reduced by aboout 90%, my brain fog I experienced while on gabapentin is beginning to lift. My over all health has been improved as well as my mood. I will never forget this as I am now convinced that I can in the very near future eliminate all my medications and live a much more fullfilling life thanks to Magnesium.” For those of you who want More than Magnesium. Here is an excerpt from my Future Health Now Encyclopedia on some simple suggestions for: Gall Bladder Disease Diet Supplements * Taurine, 250 mg once or twice daily to help balance and utilize calcium and magnesium and produce bile. * Lecithin: Egg-based lecithin powder or capsules to balance the cholesterol and bile in the liver. Dosage: as directed on the label, helps break down cholesterol. * Choline 500 mg twice daily, helps produce bile. * Vitamin K2, 45 mg per day. I recommend the Thorne brand liquid drops.

This weekend I’m dealing with the fallout from the George Noory, Coast to Coast show (March 21, 2013). I’ve been swamped with emails, Facebook requests, people signing up for my newsletter and Online Wellness Program and there was an incredible upsurge in my Amazon ratings for The Magnesium Miracle putting it in the top 100! Thank you very much and thank you George! Here is how I had to respond to most people who wrote me after the show describing the basics of what I have to offer. In this and the next few blogs I’ll give general answers to the most frequently asked questions. Thank you for your email. I apologize for this automatic response and that I can’t personally answer all the people who write me, especially the recent surge from Coast to Coast listeners. I have a staff of zero but I am working on cloning myself and when that process is complete I will then be able to answer the 100′s of emails I get every day…along with running my website, writing articles, blogs and books and doing the occasional telephone consultation. Many people write asking detailed and complex personal health questions that would be impossible and dangerous to answer by email. Many health questions are dealt with in a general manner on my free Future Health Blog. If there is a specific topic that you would like my opinion on, just google that topic and my name and something often comes up from my hundreds of blogs and articles. Or you can purchase one or more of my 30 books. My favorites are The Magnesium Miracle, Future Health Now Encyclopedia (ebook and Kindle), IBS for Dummies and Death by Modern Medicine (ebook and Kindle). The Magnesium Miracle is a lifesaving book. Over 300 pages of information on dozens of health conditions and how to treat with magnesium…and other nutrients. The hundreds of references make it a text you would be proud to show your doctor to garner their support for your plan to improve your health. The most common questions I get are about magnesium. Whether it will help a particular problem or what products I recommend and what forms and dosage of magnesium to take, especially the forms of magnesium that don’t cause the laxative effect. My recommended products are under Resources on my website. As for whether you should use magnesium, in general, magnesium can help virtually every health condition. For even more on magnesium, go to The Nutritional Magnesium Association. You can also join the Magnesium Advocacy Group where people interested in magnesium freely share questions and answers. For my health archives, visit my Organized Wisdom Health Library where you will find hundreds of written, audio and video files for your wellbeing. My solution to the health care crisis is two-fold. One is my online wellness program called Completement Now! For a membership fee of $10.00 per month, every week for 2 years you will receive a health report in the form of a coaching session about a particular topic. You can see the list of Modules at www.drcarolyndean.com/fhn. Second is a revolutionary product that I’m patenting called RnA Drops. Information about RnA Drops can be found on the FAQ list at www.rnadrops22.com. Now for your questions: FIRST QUESTION: There are so many types of magnesium, what’s the best type and how much should I use? Here is a breakdown on the various types of magnesium and what they can do for you. Magnesium oxide It’s the cheapest but only 4% absorbed. The rest goes through the intestines like a laxative. Good for constipation but not likely going to give you enough magnesium for therapeutic treatment of health conditions or to build up magnesium stores. If you take it and have several BM’s a day, you will lose nutrients including magnesium. The rest of the magnesium products are rated on whether they have laxative effects or not. There are no real absorption studies on all the magnesium except magnesium oxide. Magnesium Compounds Magnesium Chelates Food-Based Magnesium Magnesium Oil Magnesium Bath Salts Pico Ionic Magnesium: ReMag (disclosure: this is my product) The underlined magnesiums are my standard recommendations. The dosage of magnesium is at least the RDA of 400 mg and sometimes double or triple that amount. Start with the RDA, splitting your doses up through the day and increase if you symptoms are not alleviated. See my book for the 100 factors that alert you to magnesium deficiency or google my name and 100 factors. SECOND QUESTION: This involved my short presentation about being cautious using high doses of Vitamin D. This angered people who said I was dead wrong because they had benefited from high dose Vitamin D. But far more people agreed that they had been harmed by too much Vitamin D. The ratio was 5 against Vitamin D to 1 for Vitamin D. Judging from the mood of the people who berated me for my cautious advice, I would say their irritability is probably due to magnesium deficiency. Basically Vitamin D is a hormone with a feedback mechanism to let you know if you have enough calcium. Because we are so calcified with supplements and fortified foods, our Vitamin D levels in general are low. This has been interpreted as a deficiency and not as a reaction to calcium. Also Vitamin D requires magnesium to transform it from the storage form to the active form. So when you take Vitamin D in high doses you overuse your magnesium and you hold on to more calcium which also knocks out your magnesium. People who are already magnesium deficient can get hit very hard. The 20% of people who can metabolize Vitamin D without ill effects do well on it. To determine which you are is difficult. So, what you do is monitor you 25-OH Vitamin D levels, work up to about 800mg of magnesium and slowly build up your Vitamin D using 1,000-2,000 IU daily.
