MAGNESIUM BENEFITS

First things first, how does our diet play into the creation of cellulite?  How does excessive carbohydrate consumption (carbs, pastas, breads, rice, juice, fruits, sugars) in this “sugar century” contribute to our cellulite? A small handful of fiber-rich quality carbs with your balanced meal of protein and some cooked, some raw, and some fermented vegetables is not the same as a pasta meal with a soda or juice.There is a huge difference here! The body uses some of the carbs we eat for energy, but every gram over the needed carb limit per meal can be transformed into saturated fat  that is then stored throughout the body.  This transformation or conversion process is a backup system in the event that saturated fats of good quality are not to be found in the environment. In former times, there was an adage that said that the daily consumption of butter made the skin beautiful. However with the modern demonization of noble saturated fats, we have lost a fundamental ally in the  strengthening of our skin’s actual structure, in reducing inflammation, in helping us avoid the dry skin phenomenon and in the effective removal of toxins (through the lymphatic system and the bile for example). Which brings us to the other point of concern which is how do toxins contribute to our difficulty in reducing, removing or releasing cellulite and how does the “Zechstein Inside®” Transdermal Magnesium play a favourable role in regenerating the structure of our tissues and thus in the elimination of toxins? We have listed the known  functions of magnesium which demonstrate its essential role in the reduction of cellulite, a widespread problem affecting 90% of women today.

Magnesium contributes to our structural development and is necessary for the synthesis of DNA and RNA, especially in the conjunctive tissues. All the components of this essential connective tissue, in which we store cellulite, depend on magnesium. Four macro-molecules form the conjonctive tissue:

•  Collagen: high quality magnesium is needed to modulate its synthesis and degradation.
•  Elastin: high quality magnesium is needed to modulate its synthesis and degradation.
•  Proteoglycans: regulated by magnesium and allow the conjunctive tissues to resist compression.
•  Glycoproteins:  regulated by magnesium and allow tissue healing.

Magnesium is a crucial factor in the natural process of self-cleaning and detoxification within the body. Muscle contraction, which depends on magnesium, works in tandem with the lymphatic system for the elimination of lipids from the interstitial fluid. Some of these lipids return to the bloodstream to be filtered by the liver, with the secretions of the gall bladder to finally be eliminated in the stool with these lipophilic toxins.

Magnesium is needed for energy production, metabolism, phosphorylation and glycolysis. Magnesium also plays a role in the active transport of calcium and potassium ions through cell membranes, an important process for the conduction of nerve impulses, muscle contraction and heart rhythm. In other words, the healthy rhythm of the body!

 The purity of our magnesium is a major asset in detoxifying the body. It is the ONLY Transdermal Magnesium extracted with spring water, without refining or chemical purification. Chemical purification is the industry standard due to low quality source material.  Our products undergo zero transformation. A truly raw, natural state product.

 The “Zechstein Inside®” is the first choice recommended to doctors by the European Magnesium Health Institute.

 We use noble glass to avoid the contamination of phthalates due to soft plastics. Endocrine disruptors and their effects are real, several studies confirm their harmful effects on the hormonal system, leading up to cancer and even from small amounts of daily doses.

 We have an advantage over thalassotherapy and spa based minerals because our magnesium is not contaminated by modern marine pollution or radioactivity.

To regain libido, sex hormones must be adequately present and available for use in the body. Not only for sexual drive but also for fertility, metabolism, weight control, circulatory energy, performance and endurance. The male hormonal system is marked by an abundance of testosterone for the efficiency of these functions. Magnesium is directly related to the production of hormones, it is an important co-factor. Outside of magnesium deficiency are there other obstacles to this delicate hormonal balance?

Environmental toxins have a significant impact on the hormonal system, which includes testosterone production, especially estrogen-mimicking toxins such as soft plastics. To remind our readers, here is a non-exhaustive list of environmental toxins: pharmaceutical medicines, synthetic chemicals, additives, some preservatives, some binders, fillers, food coloring, recreational drugs, alcohol, caffeine, cigarettes, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, heavy metals, volatile aluminum dispersion through concrete manufacturing or used to clean public water systems, or present in cookware, frying pans, non-stick pans, also plasticized boxed juices, phthalates contained in soft plastics, bisphenols, nano-particles, VOCs, GMOs, pesticides, herbicides, WiFi, bluetooth, 5G towers and radioactivity. After such challenge the link between sexual hormone imbalance and environmental toxins becomes clear. Most of the above factors being directly correlated to estrogen dominance and the consequent limitation of our glandular and hormonal system.  Fortunately, magnesium addresses  the two major axes of this problem.

The key to  strength lies in the understanding of testosterone. Testosterone is the main factor in all areas of performance: sport, bodybuilding, sexuality, metabolism, hair growth, to name but a few. Below are 5 studies that lead to the same conclusions regarding the correlation between magnesium and testosterone.

Magnesium releases bound testosterone and makes it more bioactive. This happens because the mineral inhibits SHBG (sex hormone binding globulin), the molecule that binds to free testosterone, making it unavailable for receptors. (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/

One gram of magnesium is sufficient to increase free testosterone levels by 24% in combination with intense exercise.

In a study of 400 participants, researchers found that in older men, elevated levels of serum magnesium (via blood analysis) correlate with higher levels of testosterone.

The result of this study-review can be summarized by this clear sentence: “There is evidence that magnesium has a positive influence on anabolic hormonal status, including testosterone in men.”

In this study, researchers found that Gitelman’s syndrome (which causes imbalances in magnesium and calcium levels) often results in delayed puberty in young boys. This delay in puberty would probably be caused by low levels of testosterone, caused themselves by low levels of magnesium and calcium. (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23031616)

Magnesium is required for:

-The synthesis of the primordial antioxidant: glutathione, the great detoxifier of the organism.

-Transporting a number of nutrients through the membrane into the cells.

-Improve insulin secretion and help transport it to the cells.

-Eliminate damage to DNA generated by environmental mutagens and toxins.

-Active transport of calcium and potassium ions through cell membranes.

-Stimulate the potassium / sodium pump on the cell wall, triggering the cellular cleaning process.

-Protect the brain and heart from the toxic effects of chemicals.

-Protect cells from aluminum, mercury, lead, cadmium, beryllium and nickel.

-The detoxification and chelation of heavy metals.

-The elimination of toxic ammonia from the body.
