Is Magnesium a Miracle Nutrient?
by Dr. Julian Whitaker
Published 03/31
If I was limited to only one mineral supplement, I would definitely choose magnesium. This impoverished second cousin to calcium is far more powerful, important, and with more therapeutic benefits than calcium—or almost any other mineral. I do not understand—with all the published data showing the benefits of using magnesium as a therapy—why most physicians simply ignore it completely. Well, I don't.
In my practice, I use oral magnesium with virtually every patient, and for many I prescribe magnesium injections. I also administer it intravenously for certain conditions-all with good reason.
