Guest guest Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 Just happen to be reading about this today. According to the book Healing With Vitamins: Magnesium Daily Value: 400 milligrams Good Food Sources: Brown rice, avocados, spinach, haddock, oatmeal, baked potatoes, navy beans, lima beans, broccoli, yogurt, bananas "Prescription asthma drugs, diuretics (water pills), digitalis and other cardiovascular medications, alcohol, and caffeine are notorious for removing magnesium from the body." Potassium Daily Value: 3,500 milligrams Good Food Sources: Dried apricots, baked potatoes, dried prunes, cantaloupe, bananas, spinach "Aside from its miraculous effect on blood pressure, potassium is also necessary for good muscle contraction, healthy electrical activity in the heart and rapid transmission of nerve impulses throughout the body. This is why heartbeat irregularities are considered a classic sign of potassium deficiency. Other symptons of deficiency can include muscle weakness, numbness and tingling in the lower extremities, nausea, vomiting, confusion and irritability."

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 I take the formula recommended by Doc, which is one part Organic Apple Cider Vinegar (unfiltered) to one part Organic Unsulphured Blackstrap Molasses. Molasses is a great way to get Magnesium and Potassium. Orange juice and bananas are great for potassium also. - Eric Holland herbal remedies Friday, November 04, 2005 6:58 AM Re: Herbal Remedies - Magnesium/Patassium Question Just happen to be reading about this today.
