Hi Tony, thanks for the reply. I've looked and you are right, it is
micrograms for the selenium and I am taking 200mcg of these a day. I will
up the magnesium to 400mgs and see if this improves things. I have a job
sleeping so I believe the magnesium is supposed to help. I am taking the
mag citrate form by the way, and l-selenomethionine form of selenium.
Thanks again for the reply. Dee

Hi Dee,
The shout for magnesium could be much higher than 200mg per day. A long time
ago I
figured that about 400mg per day was a maintenance dose and that double that
would be
good to boost for a while. recently i saw figures which seemed to be from a
reliable source
and they were in the same sort of ballpark so I didn't have to do a re-think
on my own
protocol. By the same note, calcium was about 600mg per day. Magnesium is
one of the
things which work for the twitches. I usually take the two togehter and with
a weak acid ( vit
C) for bioavailability.
Umm, 200mg of selenuim is way too high I think. !!! ( mg = milligrams )
Perhaps you mean
200 micrograms ? written as 200ug or 200mcg ? Personally I would go for 50
ug per day
from what I've read a long time ago. Am open to discussion on this one.
OK,
Tony
