Good morning Elizabeth! Thanks for watching. I am so glad you find the videos helpful. Please feel,free to share them with others who might find them helpful too!

👋 Thank you! Did you take a communications course? You have amazing communication skills and you’re very knowledgeable in MS. It is really helpful to me because lately, I’ve been on bed rest. I’ve just about watched half of your videos. Thanks for helping us!

Thank you! No communications but I have had my own Virtual Assistant business for 20 years. Lots of experience working with my clients. I have been learning along the way with my MS diagnosis and I really like reading the research. 🧐 I am sorry you are on bed rest. I hope you are up and about soon!

Don't forget K2! It's super important to include with D3 & magnesium. It gets the calcium out of the blood and into the bones where you want it to end up.

Yes! I take K2 as well to help with the calcium.

Yes it does...I spent 15 years trying to no avail to get my D up...finally heard about K2-mk7 and added that, plus magnesium plus calcium (from dairy)...went from the low teens to present level in the low 80's in 6 months. No thanks to any doctor either...gathered the info from other sources.

Thank you for sharing this information! I use a magnesium spray after I shower everyday….hope I’m getting enough magnesium from this form. Would be great to see a video about the spray! 😊❤️

Thanks for watching. I did look into topical magnesium, unfortunately very little is absorbed through the skin. Some can get absorbed near hair follicles and sweat glands but they make up less than 1% of our skin area. Check out this review www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5579607/ They did end by saying more research is needed though.

Another great video, thank you. Which Almond milk do you use, the vast majority are UPFs?

Thanks for watching Carl. You are absolutely right that most plant milks classify as ultra processed foods. We use the Whole Foods 365 brand. It does contain multiple ingredients but we using sparingly or as a treat. When I was first diagnosed I was working with a nutritionist and I asked “How good do I half to be?” She recommended that I try for 90%. 😉

Speaking of vitamin D absorption lets not rule out , toss 'n forget it's relation to obesity. body fat can reduce the absorption of vitamin D3 and is thought to be one of the reasons for vitamin D3 deficiency in obese people. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, meaning it must bind to fat to be absorbed and used by the body. When vitamin D is absorbed or synthesized in the skin, it is converted to its active form in the liver and then in the kidneys. Since fat cells can bind vitamin D, obese individuals have a greater volume of fat cells that effectively "trap" vitamin D, making it less available for conversion to its active form -- Once again, another valuable video. Thanks. Coffee's on me. Here's to a better health. Cheers !

Ohhhh maybe a nice reason to treat myself to an epsom salt bath once or twice a week.....magnesium is supplied that way through the skin . .I have a difficult time eating when I flare with CRPS and so far my doctor and a pain specialist still don't believe it could be anything else. My chiropractor mentioned to me I should be tested for MS . I never mentioned to her that I believe the CRPS has turned into MS . Still searching for a doctor who will listen though and offer to test me. I'm stuck in a rock and hard place, if I can close out the workers comp case in which the CRPS occurred then I can break free to find new docs. There is more to my case than meets the eye

I am sorry you are experiencing such pain. I hope you can get answers soon. Magnesium bath may help a little but we only absorb it through the hair folicles and sweat glands which is less than 1% of our skin area. Check out this review. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5579607/
