Re:Magnesium supplements(twitches I have a theory)

Hi,

I have a theory which may explain the reason I am getting twitches on magnesium supplements, and this may apply to you to.

I have been on magnesium supplementation for 10 days now, averaging about 500mg a day, and the last few days I have been feeling quite weak. My energy levels feel pretty low and this is making me nervous as I work in a competetive office environment, and signs of weakness usually attract negative attention, which i am attempting to avoid.

However I have also noticed that a previously impossible to remove layer of flab round my abdominals is apparently dissolving, I can feel the flesh in this region becoming more firm. Also I've noticed that my hamstring muscles are beginning to flesh out, and other muscles feel more firm.

I recall reading in the past that low magnesium levels lead to insulin sensitivity and this can lead to abdominal fat and lots of other undesireables, including the dreaded diabetes. So what I am thinking is that my increased intake of magnesium is improving my cells response to insulin and they are sucking more nutrients out of the blood in it's presence than normal. With the now increased responsiveness to insulin, I am temporarily in a low blood sugar state and this is making me feel weak, and vacant. This makes sense to me as my muscles are definately toning up and filling out, and I know the bodies response to insulin is anabolic.

Can anyone corroborate my theory on this, or am I micturating into the wind.

All the best,

Tooooja......
