Welcome to my new followers My story thread I looked into covid health solutions earlier this year by mapping symptoms to functions in the body. Excess intracellular calcium was a common aspect. I wondered how to fix this. Antagonist & balancer to calcium is: magnesium (Mg).

Along with magnesium glycinate I drink bone broth daily with a pinch of sea salt* & vitamin C foods. I add garlic or onion powder for sulfur & herbs to taste. I use a powder usually but here's a recipe: *Sea salt from close to where you were born is best

I wrote a long email (with evidence links to peer reviewed studies) to my country's bodies linked with pandemic outcomes & the independent body too (SAGE & indie SAGE) as well as MP, organisations, university academics & a journal. I made zero progress which broke my heart.

Magnesium is the #1 mineral deficiency in the body. So I talk about it a lot. Cos not too many people know the situation and blood tests don't indicate Mg level in your body! #missingmagnesium

I've talked about magnesium being the single most significant aspect of personal fortification against covid for a year now. It is so poorly studied but slowly more evidence like this will come in I hope. More magnesium = less covid cases. Mg literally reduces transmission!

I made videos most of which were removed. I shared my findings in long covid fb groups & again came up against censorship even though I knew Mg helped heal autoimmune issues. How do I take this forward when not from 'the science community'? Where does an innovator citizen go?

A quick reminder: magnesium comes in different forms ranging from 6% magnesium to 60%. Anyone who says all magnesium forms are the same or tells you to take a set amount does not understand about magnesium.

Magnesium Supplements Are Not Created Equal! Magnesium Oxide - the most common type found in supermarkets - is 60% elemental magnesium. 500mg of product = 300mg of actual magnesium Magnesium Threonate is 8.25% elemental magnesium. 500mg of product = 41mg of actual magnesium

Early treatment for #COVID19 is essential Weirdly magnesium has not been fully studied for covid outcomes but all these things have: I recommend quercetin 500mg and zinc 30mg twice a day (along with magnesium gycinate)

Lookie, lookie... some gram negative bacteria thrive in magnesium deficient conditions where gram positive bacteria struggle. With enough magnesium around the more vulnerable gram positive bacteria thrive!! More 'forgotten knowledge' retrieved from a 1966 study this time..?

Healing collagen is a little fickle unfortunately. You need to ensure you have plenty of these available: Amino acids: glycine, proline, lysine Minerals: magnesium, zinc, sulfur, silicon & other trace minerals (copper, manganese etc) Others: Vitamin C, hyaluronic acid

The most significant aspect in covid outcomes is: light exposure. Nutritional status which contributes towards imbalance aka disease also has an effect but this does not define outcomes clearly. Light regulates so much in the body. I wish hospitals operated with this in mind.

For those of you that perhaps are not aware magnesium is a element usually found naturally with other substances. Mg is available as an over-the-counter health supplement in many countries without the need for prescription. It is regarded as very safe. Epsom bath salts are Mg!

Three things most people need more of in 2022: 😍Magnesium 😍Sea salt 😍Peace Lack of magnesium in our food/water means we struggle with the sodium in sea salt. Yet salts are essential for our health and nervous system function!

I know many folks have started taking vitamin D supplements for the first time linked to media coverage of this 'safe' substance. Note: you need magnesium & K2 cofactors or you increase calcium deposits in your blood vessels etc. I supplement natto & Mg

Magnesium is the answer to covid but it has been missed due to blood test culture (your blood level does not indicate your body magnesium level) But magnesium literally stops cytokine storms, underpins vitamin D abilities and provides the cells with energy & immunity!! Tragic

I want the world to know I did the work I could do yet the systems failed us all. There is a story to be told here. And it should be told. I mapped all the covid symptoms out of curiosity because, a year into the pandemic, the medical profession had few answers.

Not something many folk know: Insulin resistance (which leads to diabetes) is the body's response to too much iron. Too much iron largely happens due to gut dysbiosis (aka 'leaky gut') which stems from magnesium deficiency.
