Guest guest Posted December 8, 2001 Report Share Posted December 8, 2001 Yay Marianne!!! I'm so happy that you found an organic market! Well I took 800 mgs magnesium daily, in 400 mg increments. 500 should be very benficial, though. Just one question. I'm concerned about the licorice as it's not to be taken by anyone with high blood pressure. Sometimes HBP goes hand in hand with heart problems, so just thought I'd be safe and ask. :-) There is one brand that can be taken w/o any ill effects if you have problems with HBP. I drink the Alvita licorice tea myself. Hawthorn berry capsules are the form that I used. It should be good in any form though I would imagine. If you visit the spectrum website you should be able to find a source there...or email me if you wish and I can give you some other sites where it is available. http://www.spectrumnaturals.com is their site address. Oh did I mention that red wine and grape juice is very beneficial? That was one of the ways that receiving my healing. It's the reservatol in the red grapes where one derives the benefits. White wine is not as beneficial as the darker red ones. A good red grape juice is just as good, if you don't imbibe! LOL (I use a frozen brand w/o sugar, as sugar collects in your arteries and is prone to cause more problems!)

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2001 Report Share Posted December 9, 2001 Marianne, Hi! Shari Lieberman,Ph.d. states in her book, " The Real Vitamin and Mineral Book " , that 500-1,000 mgs is the suggested daily dosage for angina and high blood pressure! The reason I took it morning and night was basically b/c I read in her book that it's a natural muscle relaxer. I needed those extra benefits dearly at that time! :-) Stress has been implicated in depleted magnesium levels, which may account for the typical " Type A " personality's risk for cardiovascular disease and the low magnesium levels usually result in blood clots, which explains it quite well. I don't take extra calcium...only that which is contained in my multi-mineral supplement(very minimal)...there are sources that say post-menopausal women who took extra calcium wound up in the ER with heart attacks...(the resulting blood clots containing calcium)... Calcium being a blood vessel contrictor. After that I certainly didn't want to take the chance of consuming very much. ;-) I eat many green leafy vegetables high in calcium content, such as kale, spinach, etc. There is three times as much calcium in one serving of spinach as there is in one glass of milk! You will find that magnesium oxide has the great levels of magnesium (60%)...unlike various other forms. The tincture sounds great. I took the tinctures also at the start of my illness and they worked well for me. I think you will find the cayenne to be very helpful also. The licorice might be good, but if you are unable to find it, I wouldn't worry. Actually the other supplements will work as well w/o it, unless of course you also have adrenal or thyroid problems. In that case I would recommend kelp as the best supplement. Wishing you the very best!

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2001 Report Share Posted December 9, 2001 My doctor told me to take ALL of my minerals at night. That is when the body processes it, while we are at sleep.

I will take the kelp then because with HBP I do not want to risk licorice - it is not a problem getting it because I did see it in the health shop, I also love real licorice, but I am wary of taking it just in case. Kelp is another one of the vits that I already have in the cupboard so no extra expense in taking it. Thank you so much for all your help it is really appreciated.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2001 Report Share Posted December 10, 2001 Marianne, Good luck with everything! I'm glad to hear that you have the kelp handy! Kelp is very beneficial for whole body health. :-) There are various foods that are beneficial with controlling high blood pressure. I have some compiled if you're interested. Are you taking meds for it? God Bless!!
