Magnesium L-Threonate: Breakthrough Brain Supplement

Does anyone have an opinion on the LivOn Labs liposomal magnesium L-Threonate? I have always heard that liposomal supplements are more readily absorbed. It is about twice as expensive as a month's supply of the Vitacost capsules but if it is really better absorbed it might be worth the extra cost. I already take a liposomal vitamin c but it is not from LivOn Labs because I like non-soy products better. The one I take comes from sunflowers. The LivOn Labs magnesium L-Threonate also has soy in it so that concerns me a bit.

magtein

dr david or Larry Sinclair won a Nobel prize for it ..... he used it to reverse aging in mice .... turning geriatric nice back into the prime

been taking magtein for a long time .... if you already lucid dream you will
Lucid dream even more ..... awesome supplement!!!

60 capsules. Most other brands seem to be 90 capsules.

Slightly gimmicky marketing, but if you can get the 2 for 1, it seems like a fair deal compared to other options. Not sure how much they charge for shipping though?

I don't like to use Amazon, but it looks like the best deal there is Life Extension brand? 23.95 / 90 caps

I ordered the intelligent labs brand from amazon. It’s called Mag Enhance They said they have helped restless leg syndrome and insomnia.
$24.99 for 90 caps but a serving is 3 caps!!! So I don’t like that but we will see.

I used to LD a lot, was very skilled at it and then as I got into my 40’s and up I rarely ever do anymore. It’s disappointing because I love it! I love to fly and talk to inanimate objects. And wear really cool clothes... walk under the water, run like a deer lolol! Anyway it’s coming tomorrow. I will report back as soon as I notice any changes.

I think we lucid dream more than we are aware of. Simply because I don’t remember all my dreams, doesn’t mean I was not lucid in the forgotten dreams.

Magnesium has a special relationship with and must have Vitamin B6. The most effective form of B6 is (P5P) Pyridoxal 5 Phosphate. The active form of vitamin B6, it is a coenzyme in a variety of enzymatic reactions

Magnesium Citrate is the least absorbable type of magnesium. The better ones are chelated like this version is, but this one is suppose to get into the brain easier. Most everyone is deficient because our farm lands don’t have any magnesium left in them. Most of the pills are huge, it hard to take 3 big pills with all the other supplements we probably need.

Anyway there are several different brands on Amazon, most all with 90%+ positive reviews of Magnesium L-Threonate. Most run about $.30/pill or $1/day. There are enough negative reviews to suggest some people are allergic to some ingredient. There were enough positive reviews I’m going to take a chance.

I was looking for double blind reviews and could not find any with controls but there were studies that had amazing effects on dementia patients. Typical was a 60 yr old with brain functioning of a 70 year old. With treatment the could reduce the mental age to close to 60. I think it may only help if some cognitive functions have been lost, but it may have preventative uses also which this study did not address.

Nightshades used to give me joint pains too, until I started taking supplemental magnesium and K2. I originally tried K2 Mk7 which seems to be the one most talked about right now, but I didn't notice any difference. Then I read some stuff about how Mk7 isn't in human breast milk and it does not cross the placental barrier when a woman is pregnant. That got me thinking it might not be as amazing of a supplement as people were saying. Mk4 is in breast milk and it will pass into the fetus during pregnancy. I then switched to higher dose K2 Mk4. I got 15mg (not mcg) capsules of Mk4 and I take 1/3 of a capsule a day. That, along with additional magnesium and general nutrient supplementation has eliminated all the symptoms I used to get when eating nightshades. If I miss taking the Mk4 for several days I notice my nightshade sensitivity starting to creep back a little bit.

Related to your friends, nightshades have other compounds in them that can be addictive for some people. Nightshades can also cause overall inflammation in the body and inflammation essentially slows down the body and numbs the nerves a bit, so it can be used as a coping mechanism for stress as well. That might be why so many comfort foods contain nightshades. Spicy foods also trigger mild endorphin releases if I remember correctly.

Bump to read later. Thanks!

^^ this ~ Thanks, CG!

Okay lovey, but I don't think that passes through the blood-brain barrier. Supplementing with this mag will carry the magnesium through to the brain.

Like the article said, using the two together would be the best route.

I have the mag oil spray I put on the bottom of feet, but I am going to get this supplement when I order again.


And now I'm sitting here wondering about our body's intelligence....because if something is so very important for optimal health, then why is it so hard for the body to absorb?


This just doesn't make sense to me....
