What single nutrient can ease heart problems in the elderly and banish PMS and painful periods at the same time? Yup, good old magnesium.

Here’s a great story from a reader who says:

Since the age of 13 I have suffered with extremely painful periods. The week before I would have terrible mood swings, which included a very short temper, tearfulness, very low moods and the day before my period I would suffer with extreme diarrhea and severe pain that would leave me in bed with a hot water bottle for two days.

“My doctor put me on the contraceptive pill at 15 which helped immensely but had serious implications for my mental state. The hormones made me irrational and made my mood swings even worse. I came off the pill at 24 and it was amazing – I became a different person! I was happier, relaxed and felt much better in myself.

However the painful periods returned and after the birth of my son they returned to the horrific experiences of my teenage years.

Last week I found your book The Magnesium Miracle. I began to follow your supplement plan for PMS and wow! My chocolate craving disappeared in 24 hours and the pain on waking with my period this morning is less than half of what it usually is! I still haven’t managed to beat the irritability yet, but I think that is because I have only been taking the supplements for a few days. If they can make this much difference in just 72 hours I can’t wait to see the results next month!!

Thanks so much for the book – you really have made an immense difference in my life.”

There are more nutrients than magnesium involved with the treatment of PMS. I currently recommend food-based supplements, such as the ones from GrownbyNature.com. My magnesium recommendations can be found in many of my previous posts.

The take-home message for today? Young and old and in between, magnesium and nutrient supplementation can be life-changing. But only you can find that out for yourself. As one reader with an intestinal condition said after last week’s post. “If I hadn’t done my own research over the last few years and latterly found your amazing book (The Magnesium Miracle) I would still be feeling very ill and completely in the dark over my condition.”

If you don’t have a copy of The Magnesium Miracle, you can find it on my website linked to amazon.
