There is evidence that the dull minds that many people have in the morning are due to high levels of calcium accumulated in the brain. This calcium is not adequately balanced with magnesium. Magnesium deficiency is a major factor in ischemic heart disease, which kills more than half of all US citizens every year, says Dr. Mildred Seelig, world authority on magnesium . Timed release calcium-magnesium ascorbate supplies nutrients which assist in both relaxation and restoration of muscles, organs, and skin during the night. The margin between life and death from scurvy is very small.
Subclinical scurvy is everywhere, but is less apparent.
