What is Magnesium Bicarbonate?
Magnesium bicarbonate is the most natural form of magnesium. It is only found in liquid form and is one of the most bioavailable and absorbable forms of magnesium to humans.
Magnesium Bicarbonate was once naturally occurring in our water supply from springs, wells, rivers, lakes, and aquifers. Water is, by design, our main Magnesium source. Small amounts are found in certain foods, but not enough to meet our body's demands.
In nature, Magnesium Bicarbonate is created by the reaction between magnesium hydroxide and atmospheric carbon dioxide. Magnesium hydroxide naturally enters water systems through runoff from the mineral Brucite, which is found in limestones and other rocks lining the waterways.
Today, we no longer have these bicarbonate salts in our drinking water. Mass amounts of air pollution from refineries, cargo ships, burning fuels, and so forth create hundreds of millions of tonnes of Sulfur Dioxide and Nitrogen Dioxide aerosols blanketing the earth. They eventually fall back down with the rain in the form of Sulfuric and Nitric acid.
These acidic compounds neutralize many alkaline bicarbonate molecules in our springs, lakes, and soil, decimating their mineral content. Combined with drinking recycled water that is chemically sterilized with things like chlorine, chloramine, sodium fluoride, and hydrofluorosilicic acid, we have never had access to our natural primary Magnesium source for our entire lives.
The purpose of LifeBlud Balance is to recreate this process found in nature. By mixing magnesium hydroxide into cold, carbonated water, we can create magnesium bicarbonate ourselves to begin replenishing this essential electrolyte in which we have been deficient.
Magnesium is also used and depleted at higher rates through physical and emotional stress, alcohol consumption, excessive sweating, and chronic exposure to non-native electromagnetic frequencies (WiFi, 4G/5G, Bluetooth). These things increase our Magnesium requirements above the 'RDA'.
Chronic magnesium deficiency manifests itself in many ways. Some examples:
- Headaches
- Migraines
- Chronic fatigue
- Chronic stress
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Insomnia
- Muscle cramps
- Weight gain (inability to use carbohydrates properly)
- High cholesterol
- High blood pressure
- Heart palpitations
- Heart disease
- Calcification
Addressing this lifelong deficiency should be the first step in creating health from the ground up. It is essential, foundational, and in complete alignment with nature.
