Magnesium Deficiency and How it affects your Immune System and Mast Cells and Possibly Celiac Disease and/or NCGS

To All,

Knitty Kitty started a thread on Thiamine, Thiamine, Thiamine, once upon a time, so now is the time to start a thread on Magnesium as a resource for others who don't have the time to do the research and wonder if taking Magnesium might help them!

Maybe it will be helpful to others as Knitty Kitty's thread on Thiamine deficiency.

I will start with one on IBS and Magnesium Deficiency.

Entitled "Magnesium and inflammatory bowel disease" aka IBS

quoting there entire abstract because it is instructive.

Abstract

"Mg deficiency is a frequent complication of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) demonstrated in 13-88% of patients. Decreased oral intake, malabsorption and increased intestinal losses are the major causes of Mg deficiency. The complications of Mg deficiency include: cramps, bone pain, delirium, acute crises of tetany, fatigue, depression, cardiac abnormalities, urolithiasis, impaired healing and colonic motility disorders. Serum Mg is an insensitive index of Mg status in IBD. Twenty-four-hour urinary excretion of Mg is a sensitive index and should be monitored periodically. Parenteral Mg requirements in patients with IBD are at least 120 mg/day or more depending upon fecal or stomal losses. Oral requirements may be as great as 700 mg/day depending on the severity of malabsorption."

Or simply stated up to almost 90% of IBS patients are or could be low in Magnesium.

This youtube webinar that summarizes a lot of Magnesium links to allergies in about a 30 minute video.

This one entitled "Magnesium (Deficiency) in Infectious Diseases in Older People"

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33435521/

This one entitled "Possible roles of magnesium on the immune system"

https://www.nature.com/articles/1601689

This is enough to get this thread started I/you/we can always add more research latter.

I always said the Lord being my help......I was lucky I found Magnesium early and I still believe that!

I hope this is helpful but it is  not medical advice.

I have four autoimmune diseases. Last year, I started falling. Diagnosed with gluten ataxia. My docs tried several approaches, but finally settled on magnesium. Infusions didn’t work, but they then put me on an 8 times dosage of oral slow magnesium. The falls stopped. Check with your docs on this. Sure worked for me.

      Are You Confused About Your Celiac Disease Lab Results? Some people test negative but have a positive biopsy, others test positive but negative biopsy.  This is why it can take years and misdiagnosis of other diseases that Celiac Disease can mimic. The above link is a good read with real life examples. Something I find interesting is that in 1980 or so a new diagnosis was created, Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, only 10 years after Norman Borlaug won the Nobel Peace Prize for creating our modern wheat and the Green Revolution.

      @Steve-n-Portland, there is a difference in the requirements to use the label "Gluten Free" and the label "Certified Gluten Free". "Gluten Free" is governed by FDA regulations and has a ceiling of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is a labeling convention used by the GFCO, an independent international third party certifying group that uses 10 ppm as its standard.

      We have had numerous reports from forum participants experiencing gluten reactions from Trader Joe "gluten-free" products. It seems it's not a good place for the celiac/gluten sensitive community to shop.
    • Steve-n-Portland
      Also, a class action lawsuit was launched in 2024 against Trader Joe's re: their " gluten free" everything bagels. They tested at 269ppm. (Personally, I am not sure they will win. The FDA says that the *ingredients* have to be less than 20ppm for a company to label something "gluten-free."  In order to be certified as gluten-free by the GFCO, the *final product* needs to be less than 20ppm. That said, the lawsuit is arguing that most people read that label and assume the final product is safe for people with celiac. Thus, many people were made sick. And being sick can have costly consequences in regard to work or school, depending when one becomes ill.)

      Correction: My previous post refers to hickory products when I actually meant bakery products.
