The Magnesium Solution for High Blood Pressure: How to Use Magnesium to Help Prevent & Relieve Hypertension Naturally (The Square One Health Guides)

My cardiologist told me to take magnesium and I have started doing that and came across this book on Amazon. It is an easy read and very informative. I learned things that I didn't realize before and I am going to pass this book onto my daughter who has hypertension.

Well it gives you an outline about electrolytes. Magnesium isn't the total solution for treating high blood pressure it's more an electrolyte balance.It took a lot of reading to figure this out, by reading this book it makes you aware of the many different things Mg is responsible for , enzyme activity, enzyme co-factors and muscle relaxation , I could go on and on. But I would rather you read it yourself, very interesting ...

My blood pressure has never been high, however, when I am tense or stressed, it goes up to about 175/80 yet goes down after I calm down. And I have also suffered from tension headaches as well as the blood pressure problem. So after reading this book, I followed the advice and began eating more foods with magnesium and also taking magnesium supplements (along with calicum and potassium) and my headaches are gone and my blood pressure is 120/70 and on a steady basis. ***Note that high blood pressure or headaches should never be taken lightly...these can be caused by a serious disorder. Be sure that you see a doctor and follow his or her advice. For me, before reading this book, I went to see my doctor who said my headaches were stress related. Then I discovered thus book and stepped up my magnesium...it worked for me.

I read this book after my doctor prescribed medication for high blood pressure. I was pretty sure it was the result of a short term stressful situation in my life, and I really didn't want to start down the medication road with all those nasty side effects. This book really opened my eyes to the other possibilities out there for curing HBP. Along with magnesium and CoQ10 supplementation, I also ate a lot of celery, increased my vegetable intake, did some slow breathing exercises, and had an Atlas adjustment at the chiropractor's office. I truly believe it was the combination of these efforts that helped me reach a normal BP and stay there - without any meds! Thanks to this author for sharing his experiences and encouraging all of us to listen to God's wisdom about how our bodies work and what needs to be done when they don't.

This book gave me some additional knowledge that I am able to do something with. I recently weaned myself off of a blood pressure medication that had Sulfa in it. I am allergic to medication that contains Sulfa in it, yet my doctors failed to read my medical records. Good thing I recalled that it contains Sulfa otherwise I would have been up a creek and doctors would have been in deep water with my daughter for prescribing that medication. I am all for taking supplements, changing my diet,lifestyle in order to knock out the hypertension they tell me I have. This is a start for me at my age of 67 years young I would rather go off all the medications and opt for natural ones then be slowly damaged with prescription medication.

The book is excellent, a very easy read. I gift my Mom and cousin with one. Most importantly the magnesium works. It's only been 4 day of taking the magnesium that is recommended in the book. My pressure is 113/78..I was taking 2 high blood pressure pills a day..I'm in disbelief my high blood pressure could be cured this easy. I was told it was hereditary and there was nothing I could do. I will tell my whole family about this book and magnesium!!

It's great research and I am sure it works. I felt that the information was repeated quite often, perhaps to fill the book more. I would of also liked some more info on how to select magnesium and how much to take.

This is the second book I've read by this author. He seems to be a kind and careful man. So this book about magnesium which could have simply been a damning criticism of widespread medical incompetence and of the cynicism of pharmaceutical companies was not. He makes the case for the wider use of magnesium in a measured and thoughtful way. Given the cheapness and safety of taking extra magnesium, it should be taken by everybody with muscle cramps or high (and high-ish) blood pressure. I suffered for 18 months from muscle cramps and was first treated for a Vitamin D deficiency, but on its own this was not effective. After a month on magnesium oxide the carmps have gone. My wife had similar cramps, and also has high blood pressure and she, too, is cured of cramps and has lowered her bloof pressure. Please read this book - it is very convincing and helpful.
