    Magnesium Deficiency?

    Thank you so much, caledonia! This was extremely helpful. My anxiety has calmed down a lot within the past day and I'm realizing now that a lot of my B12 deficiency symptoms have disappeared.

    Magnesium Deficiency?

    Magnesium Deficiency?

    Thank you! I had a basic serum test done, and it said that all of my nutrient levels were fine. The only thing that was slightly high was my sugar. So you think it could be a heavy metal sensitivity? I did take several Epsom salt baths and that seemed to lower my heartrate, but I'm scared of...

    Magnesium Deficiency?

    Hi everyone, this is my first time posting on this forum. I'm 19 years old and I was a vegetarian for 8 years. Last summer, I tried to switch to veganism and started to experience symptoms of B12 deficiency. I have been taking mb12 for a month and it didn't seem very effective until I greatly...
