AI synopsis

What people are saying

The conversations showcase a strong endorsement of the research, with many sharing personal anecdotes about reversing arterial plaque through magnesium supplements after heart attacks and stent procedures. Words like 'dissolved,' 'found the cause,' and 'cure' reflect a high level of engagement and perceived impact, driven by examples from personal health experiences and references to the widely ignored yet influential Framingham Heart Study.

AgreementStrong agreement

Most discussions strongly support the findings linking magnesium intake to reduced arterial calcification, sharing personal success stories and emphasizing its validity.

InterestHigh interest

The posts demonstrate high interest by relating the study to personal health experiences, alternative cures, and scientific insights.

EngagementHigh engagement

Users actively discuss their own health journeys, referencing specific research, and proposing magnesium as a practical solution, indicating deep involvement.

ImpactHigh impact

The collective tone suggests these discussions could influence health behaviors, focusing on magnesium's potential to prevent or reverse artery calcification and challenge conventional reliance solely on medications.

Abstract in brief

  • The study found that higher magnesium intake is linked to lower levels of coronary artery calcification (CAC) and abdominal aortic calcification (AAC), suggesting magnesium may help prevent calcification related to cardiovascular disease.
  • Specifically, a 50mg/day increase in magnesium intake was associated with a 22% reduction in CAC and a 12% reduction in AAC, with those consuming the most magnesium showing significantly lower odds of having any detectable calcification.
  • These findings support the idea that magnesium intake could be protective against atherosclerotic calcification, based on data from the Framingham Heart Study involving over 2,600 participants.]

Cholesterol and arterial plaque: What’s really happening: serum Cholesterol + calcium ==> plaque The actual prevention and cure: https://t.co/eviNUokBww Plaque + Mg ==> serum Chol Take enough Mg (malate) to loose stool, then back off to normal bowel. All plaque will dissolve.

@DrKristieLeong Or if your calcium intake is too high – diet or having osteoporosis and being prescribed a calcium supplement – like I was, you could get arterial plaque … and a heart attack. Framingham Heart Study https://t.co/bMOJdKUuV6 Add magnesium and plaque dissolves.

@DrKristieLeong After my heart attack, and then research into the cause esp. low magnesium - https://t.co/bMOJdKTX5y and noting the only risk of high Mg in diet is loose stool, I decided to increase my Mg until loose stool, and then back off some – an easy safe test.

@DowdEdward I had a heart attack, 2 stents, a statin in ‘15, 2y, and angina. The angina proved the Drs didn’t fix the plaque problem – too much calcium (Ca) vs Mg. With those balanced no more problems. [See The Framingham Heart Study https://t.co/bMOJdKTX5y]

Unneeded anyway. The liver has to make cholesterol, and arterial plaque is formed when there’s too much calcium (Ca) in the blood (from acidic diet leaching the bones) and not enough magnesium (Mg). https://t.co/bMOJdKTX5y
