I use magnesium oil, which is more watery than oily. If I wake up with a cramp, I'll do a couple of sprays and it will settle down and not come back. I think it's Ancient Minerals, but I'd have to look it up. It's an important mineral for heart function, among various other things as were mentioned, so to go without any could be risky and you might end up on calcium channel blockers some day.

I needed magnesium before I had Lyme, mostly for insomnia. I have taken it off and on since the 70's. Now I take it about 3-4 times a week. When I get low on it I have muscle cramps and increased irregular heart beat. Lyme really sent me through the roof with arrhythmias, and the only thing that helped was Doxycycline, but it is definitely worse if I miss the magnesium for too long. I think it would be dangerous to starve the body of magnesium just to starve it from the Lyme, since it is so important to the heart and muscles.

I tempt the magnesium loving pathogens out by taking a lot of magnesium and then put on my zapper and electrocute them!!!!
