Magnesium Bicarbonate
Magnesium bicarbonate is the Ultimate Mitochondrial Cocktail. Magnesium and bicarbonate when used together would increase energy in several ways. First, magnesium bicarbonate protects the natural organic and inorganic phosphate buffers in the cytoplasm of cells. Second, magnesium bicarbonate neutralizes the acid produced as a result of metabolic processes and ATP hydrolysis. This allows more ATP to be hydrolyzed; that is, more energy can be utilized. Magnesium bicarbonate buffers the mitochondria in body cells from excess acid concentrations which improves mitochondrial function and allows more ATP to be produced.

Look on the above site, it explains some of it, but not the amount of each to mix together. We need to buy the books I imagine.
Sodium Bicarbonate you buy in a Grocery shop, a Magnesium Chloride supplier you will find via Google search. Iodine may be a little more difficult.
No doubt the books will tell us.

Thanks for sharing this Lance,
However I still prefer using magnesium chloride over hydroxide. See my article on the ultimate mitochondrial coctail.
Dr. Sircus
I own your magnesium book and have been using mag. chloride for several years per your instructions with great results for relief of back and leg pain! Please tell me which of your books contains instructions for the dosage and preparation of the Magnesium Bicarbonate you mention above so I can look it up. Thank you!
For information about magnesium bicarbonate see my essay ” The Ultimate Mitochondrial Coctail” in the Sodium Bicarbonate book. Also : check out this site.
Mark,
How do you think the Magnesium chloride oil works? I wonder how much goes in transdermally- it seems that my skin is salty in the morning after I spray it on.
Karen,Most of the magnesium oil is absorbed after about 20 minutes on the skin. It can be rinsed off after that amount of time. Look at Dr. Shealy’s study on my magnesiumforlife site for more information on this and see my essays on that site.
Feel Free to repost on your blog, and thank you!

Copy and paste. It would not work (for me) in the form that was posted.
Is there a known contraindication for Mg, NaCarbonate or MgCarbonate? I would think about interactions with Cortisone, methotrexate or Bisoprolol and possibly with metal(Ti) implants.
Many thanks,
Henri
Henri, the same contradictions for magnesium would hold for the mag carbonates. There is a chapter in my Transdermal Magnesium Therapy book about contraindications to Magnesium which includes many of the effects with other medicines. Many medicines cause further depeltion of magnesium, and if you have chronic renal faiulure, excess magnesium in the body is not excreted in the urine and becomes problematic. The only real contraindication to using magnesium in any form is chronic renal insufficiency. Consult with your health care worker.
Sodium is another story altogether, with sodium sensitive people needing to be cautious, though studies have shown that sodium bicarbonate does not raise blood pressure the same way sodium chloride does.

Hi Dr. Mark,
Is Arm & Hammer Pure Baking Soda, ok to use.
Only sodium bi carb, aluminum not listed in ingedients.
Thx
We have verification from Church and Dwight who make Arm and Hammer products, that there is no aluminum in their sodium bicarbonate. Apparently other companies just use that fact as an advertising ploy.
However baking soda may contain aluminum.
Hi Dr. Mark,
I was going to try the magnesium oil, but after reading your response about contraindications and renal insufficiency,I wonder if this would be wise. I have a kidney condition called Secondary Obesity Related FSGS, and I am trying to figure out natural ways to restore health. The only meds so far are an ARB-Benicar(15mg)& Spironolactone(50mg). The proteinuria is the big outward problem. What do you think about the magnesium oil for me.
Many Thanks, Sharon
Hi Sharon,
You are right to be concerned and renal insufficiency is the only reason to be very cautious with magnesium oil. Since you are not yet in renal failure and are just spilling protein at this point, you may still be able to use the magnesium oil, but only with proper medical supervision and frequent checking of your blood levels. Work with a qualified health care provider on this issue as your condition can lead to End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) which would make the risk of magnesium toxicity much greater. The kidneys are the primary means of eliminating excess magnesium from the body. When they are not working properly this process is ccompromised.

I think the concern about aluminum comes from confusing baking soda with baking powder. Baking soda combined with an acid in a recipe like pancakes or cake will generate bubbles and therefore make the pancakes or cake rise, like yeast makes bread rise. Some baking powders use Sodium Aluminum Sulfate for the acid, while the Aluminum free baking powders use Monocalcium Phosphate, combined with baking soda. They are clearly listed in the ingredients. I haven’t seen any baking soda that lists any ingredients other than Sodium Bicarbonate, so I’m guessing that there probably is not Aluminum in any baking soda, but just in some of the baking powders. Or maybe most of the baking powders.
Can you make magnesium oil using magnesium flakes? What would be the carrier and what ratio is used? Help!
Becky,
Yes, just use a good spring water or distilled water and add enough to saturate the flakes.
Sincerely,
Claudia French RN, LPHA
Thanks Claudia. I am new at all this and am trying to stock up on the basics. I live in Georgia and this is a scary time.
One more question please for anyone who can help. What are prill beads and do they really purify water? I see that many people say it is a scam.
dr. mark,
i recently came under the assumption that i may have a mito disorder although i am not sure and i am waiting for tests. if magnesium bicarbonate is the ultimate mitochondrial cocktail, will it help to repair dysfunctional mitochondria? in short, could it be a cure or a treatment for mitochondrial disorders? current mito cocktail recipes are limited and do not work well.
thanks for your time
