Re: Alkalinity of digestive system increases risk of nitrite poisoning

Geeese! So much information so little truth!

Too much magnesium can cause hypocalcemia.

Hypocalclemia causes tetany, carpal spasms, cramping.

If low calcium causes involuntary contractions why are we posting that high magnesium relaxes muscles? Too much magnesium causes hypocalcemia.

Actually, I've treated muscle cramping after skiing with extra coq10, whole aloe vera, garlic oil, and calcium citrate.

I think alot of people take the sulphated minerals and forget about the sulfate, (just personal observation)

Mag sulfate, quinine sufate, DMSO, garlic oil, also feature SO4 molecules.

I suppose somebody would like to digest the sulfate compound. Instead of forgetting it is hanging around?

I mean, it has four oxygens attached and is associated to half dozen alternative therapies.

Does somebody want to minimize this reaction:

SO4 + H20 <--> SO3 + H202 ????

Does anyone want to speculate of a single bonded oxygen to sulfate will leave the molecule just from pure gas/fluid dynamics, basic physics? (loww pp O2 in mitochondria?)

Anyone want to speculate if SO3 can pick up and oxygen under higher pp O2? (In the lungs.)

Funny how the next day after having intense quadracept spasms, from radical skiing, ...I was again skiing 11,000 feet elevation all day, no pain, no cramps, just plain old fun! In fact, my buddy who is younger, weighs less, better shape had more muscle pain after we were all done,....I actually felt better after skiing than before I went!

That's never happened!

No magnesium anywhere in that therapy! Did take calcium though.
