Magnesium & Complex Partials
Mon, 09/08/2008 - 18:59Does anybody have an idea about using magnesium to control complex partials? I read the other discussion about using magnesium but I did not see anyone with complex partials.
I am trying to increase my vitimin therapy and would appreciate any input on the subject.
Thanks!

HI SPRT, I HAVE BEEN TAKING MAGNESIUM 1600 MG A DAY FOR AT LEAST 3 YEARS. MAGNESIUM IS A NATURAL MUSCLE RELAXANT. I HAVE IT PRESCRIBED BECAUSE MY BLOOD PRESSURE RUNS EXTREMELY LOW. I HAVE AMONG OTHER TYPES OF SEIZURES, COMPLEX PARTIALS AND MAGNESIUM HAS NOT HELPED ME IN THE DEPARTMENT AT ALL. I DON'T SEE HOW IT COULD. I HAVE ABSENCE, SIMPLE, COMPLEX PARTIALS, ATONIC, TONIC AND DROP SEIZURES. IF IT WAS GOING TO HELP IT CERTAINLY WOULD HAVE BY NOW. IT IS ALSO GOOD FOR CONDITIONS LIKE FIBROMYALGIA. I USED TO GET MAGNESIUM INJECTIONS. I KNOW THIS ISN'T WHAT YOU WANT TO HEAR, AND REALLY, I CAN'T THINK OF ONE THING MAGNESIUM COULD DO FOR SEIZURES.......SPEAKING FROM MY EXPERIENCE ANYWAY.
I WISH YOU PEACE, LOVE, BLESSINGS, JOY.........JAN

As you now i have absence(petite mal) seizures...i have been taking magnesium/B12/omegas....among many other vitamins for almost 5 years now off and on...about 8 months ago i started taking 18 a day, and as of right now...i've been seizure free for 3 months
in my experience there is a lot of credibility in magnesium and omegas
best of luck!!

Hello, I read your email and I read where some people take omega 3 with fatty acids, vitamin B-12, and calium with magnesium & vitamin D, vitamin B6, flaxseed I don't know which one would be the best to take. But I am going to ask the next time I go to gnc. I want to know what vitamins would be best for our brain. And I said it wouldn't hurt to take the vitamins that are good for our brain because our body need vitamins anyway. Take Care Dee-Dee
