Magnesium glycinate cures depression

My short term memory problems, difficulties concentrating, slowed thinking, confusion, mental fatigue and trouble speaking have almost completely  disappeared since I went off of antidepressants and starting taking magnesium bis-glycinate 200 supplements.

As I said in my last blog, weaning off of prescription drugs was a slow process and it was an adjustment. However, my salvation during this whole process has been taking magnesium supplements. I have taken 200 mgs of magnesium once or twice a day for the last 3 months. I was able to purchase this CanPrev products from Nutraways on Lonsdale Avenue in North Vancouver and found this type of magnesium at Choices Market. Note the type of magnesium is critical to absorption.

As promised, I plan to write further blogs to provide you with the literature about antidepressants and natural alternatives. These blogs will come in time. In the meantime, be sure to read this short abstract published by the U.S. National Institute of Health. It will alert you to the reason depression is so widespread in North America. And you will learn that I am not alone in receiving substantial benefit from magnesium. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16542786
