Is Magnesium a Miracle Nutrient?

Cardiac arrhythmia is the most frightening as well as most dangerous manifestation in patients with heart disease. Given intravenously, magnesium is a powerful stabilizer of heart rhythm.
In one study out of a medical center in Orange County, California, 11 patients with ventricular tachycardia (a particularly dangerous arrhythmia) were given intravenous magnesium. Seven out of the 11 converted almost immediately (i.e., the arrhythmia was corrected), and all 11 patients converted while under observation.
In other studies, magnesium infusions have been shown to eliminate dangerous cardiac arrhythmias even when the more routine drugs have failed. Infusion of magnesium for control of cardiac rhythm is not only a powerful therapy for heart irregularities, but is also exceptionally safe. No side effects have been recorded in any studies demonstrating benefit.
