"The Magnesium Acetate discovery by Ghg
On 4/20/2015, I (ghg), decided to try oral magnesium acetate. A heaping TSP (10g) in a glass of water in the morning, and again in the evening. The body metabolizes magnesium acetate into the elusive magnesium bicarbonate. This delivers 1.1g magnesium and 5.5g bicarbonate (after the acetate metabolizes into bicarbonate) per TSP of powder. This can even be taken in ½ glass (about 200ml) of water to increase the concentration and absorption. The next morning I awoke to a “fountain of youth” effect. Felt 20-30 years younger, huge boost in energy, etc. My cellular magnesium reserves were already adequate (RBC magnesium 5.3) when trying the acetate. Others did not see the energy boost (they had low magnesium reserves), but saw an energy boost after 4-6 weeks as their reserves were built up. (See next section below.) For some people it is may not possible to achieve the huge energy boost from oral supplementation of mag bicarb water (or mag acetate) and stay under the loose stool limit. We are investigating “timed release” formulation techniques to circumvent this issue.
Mag bicarbonate water is too dilute to work transdermally. However, magnesium acetate can be made into a thick syrup (very concentrated), and it works very well in transdermal applications, thus reducing oral requirements.
Magnesium acetate also (for most) appears to cause no skin irritation or “stinging” as is common with magnesium chloride used transdermally. Magnesium chloride users often mix magnesium chloride flakes with Vodka to promote absorption and to reduce stinging. It is called “Mag-A-Hol” It is promoted in the Facebook group “The Magnesium Advocacy Group”. We have no reports of anyone mixing mag acetate with Vodka or Everclear yet. The Magnesium Advocacy Group recommends 5mg of magnesium per pound of body weight, just to maintain optimal levels.
Correlation with your body’s “magnesium reserves”
In terms of noticing an immediate energy boost effect, there is a correlation with your currently existing body reserves of magnesium. By some estimates, up to 80 percent of Americans are not getting enough magnesium and may be deficient. Until the reserves of magnesium in your body have have had time to build up high enough, the energy boost effect may not engage. It is believed that adequate magnesium reserves are somewhere around 5.3 mg/dL on an RBC (red blood cell, not serum) magnesium blood test, for the effect to engage (from ghg’s experience). For those who are deficient, this can usually be achieved in a short period of time, in as little as a month or two."
