Videoactivism: Building Magnesium Awareness

My lady writes MgCl in the sand for Magnesium Chloride. Bandon, Oregon

Today we’re producing a video that shows people replenishing their magnesium levels with magnesium chloride, which is in liquid form. This is a fairly new protocol; a growing number of doctors are only now learning about it, and the public… well, unless it’s about violence, tragedy or some other calamity, we’re generally the last to know.

This is an example of the type of information the public is fed daily, and quickly becomes “experts” on:

In today’s news, the East side and West side serial killers confronted each other in a dramatic shootout. Reports confirm that the West side strangler had started a feud with the East side shooter, contending that the city “wasn’t big enough” for the two of them. They met at 43rd and Broadway with guns blazing. When the smoke cleared, the East side shooter lay dead. Police had cordoned off the area, but in spite of closing in quickly, the West side strangler mysteriously got away. He was last seen near a partially open manhole cover. Witnesses told authorities the strangler was miffed at the West side shooter’s growing notoriety because he was actually the better shooter too.

No, this hasn’t happened, yet. And I prefer that it doesn’t. But this kind of news story is far more likely to get wide coverage — and turn criminals into “celebrities” — than stories about natural substances the body was designed to use, that actually improves our health status when we put enough of it in.

Magnesium is not the only natural substance that helps us stay healthy, or return to health, but given its profoundly critical importance to the overall proper functioning of our body, it is the most underlooked. So we’re going to do something about that.

Transdermal Magnesium Therapy, by Mark SircusFor one thing, we’ve published Transdermal Magnesium Therapy, written by Mark Sircus, which is now available. The next thing is to let the world know that this is a subject worth its attention that can be of great benefit, and how to go about replenishing the body’s magnesium stores. Third, we’ll point people to places where they can obtain the magnesium chloride so that they can start their own replenishment protocol.

We’re a small publisher at present, mind you, but the consequences of not knowing the information that Mark has put together is severely affecting tens, if not hundreds of millions of people, some of whom are dying each day from the consequences of mineral malnourishment. We have great technology, but technology cannot and does not nourish the body. Magnesium can, and does. It is not a performance enhancer; it is a life enhancer. No drug can truly make that claim.

When I read Mark’s manuscript, I saw how magnesium deficiency has impacted my life from a health perspective. And I saw a preponderence of scientific evidence as to why magnesium deficiency is compromisng the physical well-being of so many others. As Mark introduced the availability of liquid magnesium chloride, and how easy it is to self-administer, it became a no-brainer to me that adopting a routine of replenishment would be extremely helpful to everyone.

The FDA prohibits companies that sell natural supplements or “alternative” products from saying that they “cure” ailments. I actually understand the initial motivation. These injunctions prohibit drug companies from making curative claims for their pharmaceuticals unless they have gone through rigorous (and unbelievably expensive) testing. That makes sense.

But then, these are toxic drugs; most of which are designed to change, obstruct, or in some way, alter the body’s normal and natural function in order to kill off the “bad” stuff in our bodies that are causing our sickness. In that respect, what the FDA does is good. On the other hand, the agency declares that any substance that makes curative claims is a drug, and therefore, under their jurisdiction, including magnesium in its various forms.

Dear FDA,

Please take note that magnesium is not a drug. Magnesium is a nutrient that the body was designed to work with in order to function properly. If any of you don’t believe it, try consciously removing or diminishing your magnesium intake, and see what happens to you.

Actually, that wouldn’t be hard. All one has to do is eat the Standard American Diet of processed and chemically treated food, and you’ll see what I mean. Migranes, inflammation, neurological disorders, coronary heart disease, cancers, diabetes, soreness… the list goes on and on.

While pharmaceutical companies are nobly attempting to create physiology altering drugs and other protocols (radiation, etc.) to treat these conditions, magnesium is a component the body was designed to accept, and there are no substitutes. As such, it is not a drug. It is a mineral-nutrient. It is such such an important mineral-nutrient, that nutritional science terms it a macronutrient.

Sincerely,

Adam…

Okay, I’ know they’re not listening to me, and I’m probably not telling the people at the FDA anything they don’t already know. However, their policies don’t reflect such understanding, and their persistence in attempting to classify mineral nutrients like magnesium under the same umbrella as toxic pharmaceuticals promotes comparisons between the two on the basis of likeness, when in truth, they are not.

You don’t need a Ph.D. to understand that magnesium is not a drug, and no amount of Ph.D.’s is going to make a naturally occurring and necessary nutrient, that is vital to our body’s physiology, into a drug. You can’t say that drugs are naturally occurring and necessary. They are neither. We don’t have to claim it about magnesium, but the statement would nonetheless be true. Even your doctor knows it’s true.

Magnesium definitely, and without question, facilitates life and health by strengthening the body’s ability to function, with new energy, restoring itself to normalcy, and maintaining said normalcy.

Conventional drug therapies that the FDA rightfully oversees, on the other hand, may facilitate continued living. However, they do so by essentially gambling with life, weakening one’s immune system, compromising the body’s natural defenses, killing off certain “offenders”, and maintaining a holy war within the body with the patient as the potential “whipped” survivor. If the patient dies by this route, the doctor with the help of the drugs, are perceived as “valient heroes” that tried to save us. If a patient chooses alternate, natural treatment modalities, eschewing treatments that call for further poisoning, his or her common sense is questioned.

The FDA isn’t helping here. Alternative medicine is looked at with a jaundiced, suspicious eye. The safety, and more importantly, the real effectiveness of the various products is not acknowledged unless its credentials as a drug have been bestowed. That can’t really happen, since minerals are not synthesized chemical cocktails, and not subject to patenting. They are not proprietary: every living organism is comprised of minerals, and needs them in adequate supply and proper balance in order to function properly. Even the people who run the FDA need magnesium.

So we’re going to produce a short video about using one grossly overlooked über mineral. Specifically, we’ll show the various simple ways replenishment methods using magnesium chloride. While it would be easy to say, rub it into the skin — arms, legs, joints — or take a foot bath or regular bath, the message is made clearer when it is visualized. So that’s what we’ll do.

I’ll let you know what we came up with when it’s done.
