I want to discuss the role that magnesium plays in CFS. The reason that I am posting this thread here is that i strongly believe that the cure for most of my symptoms is in the methylation protocols ( I am following @Freddd at the moment). I can say for sure that just mb12 has a strong effect on me and I will see how it goes when I add metafolin.
For comparison with the people that are reading this thread, my symptoms are
insomnia -specifying- sleep that does not offer rest, not deep sleep or no sleep
unsteady gait -specifying- unsteady walking, feeling like you are in a boat while you are walking
bad mood
low energy
All the symptoms worsen when I am trying to work out.
So before I find out phoenix rising forum and before I even learn about the importance of b12 and specifically mb12 I managed to keep my symptoms under control by adding 100mg magnesium daily into my diet. Magnesium seems to kick in after the third day of use and offers better sleep, good concentration through out the day and clarity and more energy. However it does not prevents symptos for getting worse when I am wroking out but it does offer faster recovery. The biggest does of magnesium that i tried was 1g (liquid form) but the second day it made me feel out of breath when i was walking like i was needing more air although the energy and clarity and improvement of sleep still remained, so I lowered the dose.
Did anyone else had similar experiences with magnesium?
