These Are the Best Magnesium Supplements | Rhonda Patrick, Ph.D. 217,478 views Mar 19, 2024 In the landscape of essential nutrients, magnesium is a giant. Despite magnesium's critical functions, nearly half of people in the U.S. don't get enough, primarily due to diets lacking in magnesium-rich foods like dark leafy greens, nuts, and seeds. That's where supplementation can help. In this video, expect to learn • The upper safe limit for daily supplemental magnesium intake • The #1 sign of excessive magnesium supplementation • Why you should divide up magnesium supplement doses throughout the day • The most bioavailable (and most effective) magnesium supplements • Whether or not magnesium threonate is better at crossing the blood-brain barrier • Why magnesium threonate shouldn't count toward your RDA goal • Rhonda Patrick's magnesium supplement regimen (doses and brands) Download the 9-page Cognitive Enhancement Blueprint and get my exact omega-3, exercise, & sauna protocols for boosting BDNF: https://bdnfprotocols.com/ Watch the full episode: • The Science of Magnesium and Its Role... Chapters View all Transcript Magnesium Supplements 0:00 so naturally the next question on 0:01 people's minds are what about magnesium 0:04 supplements where do they fit in what if 0:06 I don't get enough magnesium from 0:08 dietary sources can I supplement so 0:11 let's start with supplemental magnesium 0:14 doses so how much is too much the US 0:17 Institute of medicines food and 0:18 nutrition board has set the upper safe 0:20 limit for daily supplemental magnesium 0:23 intake at 350 milligrams per day so this 0:26 is the level considered you know that 0:28 it's unlikely to cause diarrhea or 0:31 gastrointestinal issues for most people 0:33 diarrhea is the first sign of excessive 0:35 magnesium supplementation it's often 0:37 used therapeutically as a laxative but 0:39 this is a bit of a conservative dose it 0:41 does not include magnesium from dietary 0:43 sources so in other words there's no 0:46 evidence that going above the RDA for 0:49 magnesium is harmful in fact some 0:51 evidence suggest that it may even be 0:53 beneficial particularly if the Magnesium 0:55 is mostly coming from dietary sources 0:57 for optimal bioavailability of magnesium 0:59 ium supplements it's also generally more 1:02 effective to take the total daily dose 1:05 in divided smaller amounts rather than a 1:08 single large dose so this approach 1:10 allows for more efficient absorption by 1:12 the body it can also minimize the 1:15 potential GI discomfort so smaller 1:18 spaced out doses they're processed 1:20 better by the digestive system and this 1:22 also ensures maximum absorption 1:25 utilization of the Magnesium the 1:27 bioavailability of different magnesium 1:29 supplements does vary and it's not fully 1:32 standardized in studies clinical 1:34 research on organic magnesium salts so 1:38 these include magnesium citrate 1:40 magnesium glycinate magnesium 1:43 tarate these indicate um magnesium 1:47 malate is also in there these organic 1:49 salt forms of magnesium are generally 1:52 more bioavailable and effectively raise 1:55 plasma magnesium levels compared to 1:58 inorganic forms of magnesium magesium 2:00 like magnesium oxide magnesium chloride 2:04 magnesium sulfate so organic magnesium 2:06 salt are better absorbed in the 2:08 digestive tract it can lead to more 2:10 significant increase in magnesium levels 2:12 in the blood and I think this for this 2:14 reason it makes them more effective 2:16 choices for supplementing magnesium and 2:19 also of course addressing deficiencies 2:21 but just to eliminate any confusion um 2:24 the term organic in this context refers 2:26 to the presence of carbon being in the 2:29 acid molecule 2:30 so we're not talking about agricultural 2:32 standard of being organically grown here 2:35 it's a it's a different term magnesium 2:37 sulfate can be taken orally but and this 2:40 is an inorganic form but it's often more 2:42 commonly used as epson salt for a 2:44 transdermal through the skin 2:46 applications when it's taken orally it 2:48 can act as a laxative and it's used 2:50 therapeutically as a laxative the 2:52 effectiveness of epsin salt particularly 2:54 in baths is unclear we'll talk about 2:56 this a little bit later because the 2:58 transdermal absorption of magn magnesium 3:00 through epson salt baths really hasn't 3:02 been conclusively proven but let's talk Magnesium Threonate 3:04 about another form of magnesium called 3:06 magnesium threonate magnesium 38 is a 3:08 form of magnesium that has garnered a 3:11 lot of attention because of its 3:12 potential impact on brain function so 3:15 generally only a small portion of the 3:17 Magnesium ingested in a supplement form 3:19 reaches the brain and this is due to the 3:21 intricate active transport systems that 3:24 control the progression of magnesium 3:26 from the digestive tract into the 3:28 bloodstream and then subsequently from 3:29 the bloodstream um across the bloodb 3:31 brain barrier the body establishes and 3:34 manages a very tight concentration 3:36 gradient it creates a higher magnesium 3:38 level in the blood compared to the 3:41 cerebral spinal fluid and that allows a 3:43 very controlled quantity of magnesium 3:46 that can actually get transported into 3:48 the brain this precise regulation is 3:50 really important to maintaining this 3:52 equilibrium of magnesium necessary for 3:54 optimal brain function so in humans it's 3:56 been found that even an increase up to 3:59 30 100% in blood magnesium results in 4:04 less than 19% change in the cerebral 4:06 spinal fluid magnesium content and I 4:08 think this really highlights the 4:10 significant role that physiological 4:12 processes in maintaining magnesium 4:14 balance play which then influence the 4:16 brain health and function so some animal 4:18 evidence suggest that magnesium 3 andate 4:21 can easily get across the bloodb brain 4:23 barrier and at a human equivalent dose 4:26 of 8.1 mg per kilogram body weight so 4:30 that would be around 662 mg for a 180 lb 4:35 person can improve cognition and 4:37 decrease amalo beta plaques now this is 4:39 in the brains of mice and it's thought 4:41 that the Magnesium 3na is uniquely 4:43 effective in crossing the bloodb brain 4:45 barrier due to its specific molecular 4:47 structure so this form of magnesium is 4:50 chelated to thonic acid and that is a 4:53 metabolite of vitamin C so this cation 4:56 enhances its ability to pass through the 4:59 blood brain barrier or so it's thought 5:02 um the precise mechanism by which 5:03 magnesium 3 and8 bypasses this tightly 5:06 regulated concentration gradient between 5:09 the blood and the brain is not fully 5:11 understood it is believed though that 5:14 its molecular structure does somehow 5:16 facilitate easier entry into the brain 5:18 thereby increasing concentration of 5:20 magnesium in the brain more effectively 5:23 than other forms of magnesium that is 5:25 solely based on a very small and limited 5:28 number of animal studies 5:30 when we turn to human studies only a 5:32 couple have explored the effects of 5:34 magnesium 3 and8 so these studies are I 5:38 want to point out industry funded which 5:40 does invite us to consider a potential 5:43 conflict of interest so the initial 5:45 study that I I think garnered a lot of 5:47 attention was published in 5:49 2016 it was a small scale study that 5:53 only had 44 participants total um those 5:56 in the treatment group took daily doses 5:58 of about5 100 to 2,000 millgram of 6:02 magnesium threonate so this is mar 6:04 marketed as magine and they took it for 6:07 over 12 weeks based so this was based on 6:10 their body weight that's why there's a 6:11 range in dose the findings of this study 6:14 I personally think are underwhelming so 6:16 the treatment group only achieved a 6:19 marginal increase in plasma magnesium 6:21 levels with no elevation noted in red 6:24 blood cell magnesium levels compared to 6:26 the placebo group additionally there was 6:28 a significant increase in urinary 6:30 magnesium which suggests that most of 6:32 the supplemented Magnesium 3 and8 was 6:34 actually being excreted through urine 6:36 there was some cognitive tests that were 6:38 also done there was no significant 6:40 difference observed when each of these 6:43 four different measured cognitive tests 6:46 were looked at in isolation compared to 6:48 the placebo group but if the data was 6:51 all pulled together so all four 6:53 cognitive tests were then pulled 6:55 together then there was a a 6:58 statistically significant difference in 7:00 cognitive function compared to the 7:03 placebo group obviously this suggests a 7:06 degree of statistical uncertainty in the 7:08 study's conclusions whether or not it 7:10 was just due to a small sample size they 7:12 said there's only 44 people in this 7:14 study perhaps if there were 444 people 7:18 there would have been more of a stronger 7:21 signal and the data wouldn't have had to 7:23 have been pulled together or maybe there 7:25 really isn't much of an effect there's 7:27 no telling the second study was also 7:29 industry funded which I think is 7:31 important to keep in mind this study was 7:34 published in 7:35 2022 and it involved 100 participants 7:39 and the treatment group was given 400 7:42 milligrams of magnesium 3 Anda along 7:45 with vitamins c d B6 and phosphole 7:48 Serene in contrast the placebo group 7:51 received only 2 grams of a starch 7:53 capsule so despite the absence of any 7:55 elevation of serum or brain magnesium 7:57 levels the treatment group did have 8:00 improved cognitive test performance 8:02 compared to the bbo group I would say 8:04 this study raises pretty significant 8:07 questions around causations because the 8:09 treatment group was not just given 8:11 magnesium 38 they were given a variety 8:14 of vitamins they were given vitamin C 8:17 the B vitamins vitamin D B6 but they 8:20 were also given phosph tidal Serene so I 8:23 I think to be able to establish a solid 8:26 conclusion that magnesium 3on is 8:28 responsible for improving cognitive 8:29 function the placebo group should have 8:32 gotten all those other vitamins and the 8:33 phosph tyal serine but not the Magnesium 8:35 3 and8 uh however that was not the way 8:38 the study was done so in my opinion I 8:40 think it's an interesting study but 8:42 really no conclusions can be stated 8:44 directly about magnesium 3 and8 itself 8:47 so I think a concluding statement with 8:50 respect to supplemental magnesium um 8:52 there's a few concluding statements one 8:54 to enhance bioavailability it's 8:56 advisable to take smaller frequent doses 8:59 of of magnesium supplements organic 9:01 magnesium salts like magnesium glycinate 9:03 or magnesium tarate are generally more 9:06 readily absorbed than in organic forms 9:08 like magnesium oxide I also think 9:10 there's some added benefits of these 9:11 organic salts for example taking 9:14 magnesium glycinate also gives you some 9:17 accompanying compounds like glycine so 9:20 glycine could potentially be beneficial 9:22 at least According to some studies also 9:25 magnesium Tate would give you tarine 9:28 which also may have some Health 9:29 advantages but that's the subject of 9:31 another podcast there is some caution 9:33 that should be taken without you know 9:35 not wanting to exceed um super super 9:37 high doses of magnesium so 350 9:40 milligrams per day is the the safe upper 9:43 limit and um that is for either organic 9:46 or inorganic magnesium supplements if 9:48 you go above that you may get GI side 9:51 effects so that's something to keep in 9:53 mind I would say a really important 9:56 takeaway from this section is magnesium 10:00 threonate is not the best option for 10:03 meeting daily magnesium needs as 10:05 outlined by the RDA it shouldn't be 10:07 included as contributing to your 10:10 recommended daily allowance of magnesium 10:13 and that is because magnesium 3 andate 10:16 contains a very low amount of Elemental 10:20 magnesium so if you are considering 10:23 supplementing with magnesium 3 andate 10:25 for its potential brain health benefits 10:28 which I would say have not been 10:29 established do not count that magnesium 10:33 dose towards your RDA goal so to ensure 10:35 you're getting enough magnesium you know 10:37 you need to to calculate what you're 10:39 getting from your foods but also 10:41 consider supplementing with other 10:43 organic magnesium forms like magnesium 10:45 glycinate which does have a higher 10:47 amount of Elemental magnesium content as What Do I Take 10:50 you can tell there are many different 10:51 forms of magnesium available a natural 10:54 question is what do I take the answer is 10:56 I hedge my bets I take a supplement that 10:58 has many different forms of magnesium 11:00 salts which seems logical to me there 11:02 are not many products I have found that 11:03 offer that one of them is magnesi om by 11:06 Moon Juice the other one I sometimes 11:08 take at night is magnesium glycinate by 11:10 pure encapsulations there are many 11:11 different brands I'm not affiliated with 11:13 either of those but I know many of you 11:15 want to know what I take so there you 11:16 have 11:24 it Magnesium Supplements 0:00 so naturally the next question on 0:01 people's minds are what about magnesium 0:04 supplements where do they fit in what if 0:06 I don't get enough magnesium from 0:08 dietary sources can I supplement so 0:11 let's start

I like the way you get right to it without any long winded preamble. Precise and informative. Thanks again. 3 Reply @frankbreuer8849 1 month ago When I was in training as psychologist, my supervisor spoke about the benefits of magnesium for a number of reasons, e.g. reduced anxiety, stress and overall well-being. I followed his recommendation and the results were tangible. Mind you, that was in the year 2000, like almost 25 years ago. Btw, that's the value of a great practitioner, whether medical or psych, that they strive to know what is going on outside the box. Thank you, Martin Kleinschnitger, and shout out to you, Dr Rhonda.

I've shared the one on all-cause mortality and cancer linked to deficiencies in micronutrients as widely as I can including to specialists, registrars, GPs, medical executives, nurse practitioners, CNCs.. pretty well everyone I can. One thing I think is worth pointing out is that when Rhonda talks about milligrams of magnesium, she is referring to "elemental" and NOT the salt value. In the case of Glycinate, for instance, to get 300mg of elemental magnesium, you need a 3000mg (3g) dose. I often find that people are taking a 500mg tablet of some salt (they usually don't know), thinking they are hitting RDA.. when in fact they might only be absorbing say 10-30mg, even less with sulfate or oxide. 8 Reply @giuseppelamanna8669 1 month ago Thanks for your always clear and pertinent information Ronda - pls remember that your viewers are also outside the States so it would be good to provide measures in the metric system as well - best 15 Reply @tedthedog359 1 month ago Essential Rhonda Patrick 77 Reply 2 replies @Digbite 4 weeks ago The stuff changed my life.

I regularly consume a scoop of powder with more than 300mg of elemental magnesium in it without any negative side effects. It wasn't the case initially though.

Reply @elinope4745 1 month ago I am a shell shocked veteran, I got severe anxiety issues and I care about my health. I get my magnesium from epsom salt baths. My doctor complained that my magnesium levels were too high. In my not a professional but a fan of life hacking opinion, the actual fastest and best way to get a lot of magnesium to absorb fast is to eat eggs for dinner and the following morning do a workout and drink some coffee then take a cold bath with epsom salt in it while you are still sweating from the workout, an ice bath if you can tolerate it. Soak in the epsom salt for twenty minutes and then shower it off and wash with soap after, or if you are extremely magnesium deficient you can refrain from washing the salt off in the morning and just take a shower later at night to wash it off. I have seen no studies in books that say this, but it seems to me like, as your body excretes sodium, and potassium with sweat that the outward force of these metals through active diffusion in sweat, creates an ionic reactive force that will help pull magnesium through the skin and into the extracellular fluid of the hypodermis. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction, active diffusion one way can power diffusion in the other direction as well and this is a type of salt transport. I heard that absorption is better in cold than in hot baths, I know that egg protein is the best protein shy of milk protein to act as a dietary boost of active transport ligands, takes about 5 to 8 hours from eating to it to available in the blood. 10 Reply 1 reply @bw6078 1 month ago Information from Rhonda here as always essential daily requirement.

But did you know that that apparently 1/4 to 1/8 of magnesium glycinate is elemental magnesium. Meaning the rest is glycine supposedly. I only saw one supplement maker that included this ratio in their label.

Reply @Simon-pl2zi 1 month ago Anyone can easily get their magnesium requirements simply by eating a strictly whole food diet, and cut out alcohol, refined sugar and processed foods, and yes that includes cutting out commercial breads. But because over 80% of Americans lack the self discipline to eat the way they should, they have to supplement, and most can't even be bothered to do that. Supplements are drastically inferior compared to getting your dietary needs from whole food sources.
