What nutrients or deficiencies cause twitching?

pain No Comments »

ChrisMorell asks on Twitter: “What vitamins/nutrients would you recommend for muscle twitching (eyes, legs)? Recurring issue since I was 20. Supplementing w/ magnesium g. ~350mg per day, plenty of D, K2, E & A. Did Genova ion panel last year but maybe time for another testing round?”

and Kori Dunlap asks on YouTube: “I”m low on B2 according to my NutrEval results so I’m just taking double of a B complex. However when you mentioned eye twitching my Sons test came back low B6, so he is taking that from Thorne, but this is going in the 3rd week and now I’m noticing eye twitching. Please advise. Thank you so much for your valued information!!🙏”

Disclaimer: This is educational in nature. I am not a doctor and this is not medical advice.

Condensed answer (see video for details): Twitching could involve excitatory or inhibitory amino acids (especially glutamate, glycine, GABA, and maybe acetylcholine), electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride, magnesium, and calcium), acid-base balance (beta-alanine, carnosine, and bicarbonate can be relevant), B vitamins (especially especially thiamin, especially niacin, riboflavin, and pantothenic acid, but also biotin, folate, and B12), and anything that impacts energy metabolism (caffeine, exercise, exertion, stress, hyperthyroid, hypothyroid, diabetes, inborn errors of metabolism, etc).

Hello Everyone! I want to share my Vitamin D Deficiency story with you. There are quite many symptoms that are derived from Vit D and not everyone experiences the same set of symptoms. I hope to share my healing journey with the public for the first time. Hopefully, this will shine some light on how important it is to take your vitamins and when to know if your symptoms are low vitamin D symptoms.

Chapters

0:00 Introduction
0:31 Toothache
0:54 Sensitivity
1:18 Discoloration
1:36 Bad breathe
1:53 Holes or pits

Maintaining good oral health is essential for a bright smile and overall well-being. One of the most common dental issues that people face is tooth cavities. These small holes in the teeth can lead to discomfort, pain, and more severe dental problems if left untreated. In this video, we will explore five important signs that could indicate the presence of a tooth cavity. By recognizing these signs early on, you can take the necessary steps to address the issue and protect your oral health.

Sensitivity to Hot and Cold:
If you experience a sharp or lingering pain when consuming hot or cold foods and beverages, it could be a sign of a tooth cavity. Tooth enamel protects the nerves inside your teeth, and when cavities erode the enamel, sensitivity can occur. If you find yourself wincing at the thought of ice cream or hot coffee, it’s time to consider a dental check-up.

Persistent Toothache:
A persistent toothache, especially when eating or applying pressure, is a strong indicator of a cavity. As cavities progress and reach the inner layers of the tooth, they can cause significant discomfort. Ignoring a toothache could lead to more severe dental issues, so it’s important to address it promptly.

Visible Holes or Pits:
Sometimes, cavities are visible to the naked eye. If you notice small holes, pits, or dark spots on your teeth, it’s a sign that decay may be present. Regular dental examinations can catch these early, preventing further damage.

Bad Breath:
Unpleasant breath that doesn’t go away even after brushing and using mouthwash could be linked to tooth cavities. Bacteria thrive in the crevices of decayed teeth, leading to foul-smelling breath. Addressing the cavity can help improve your breath.

Changes in Tooth Color:
Cavities can alter the color of your teeth. If you notice white, brown, or black spots on the surface of your teeth, it’s time to consult a dentist. Discoloration is often a sign that the enamel is compromised and decay is setting in.

Conclusion:
Being aware of these five signs can empower you to take control of your oral health. If you suspect you may have a tooth cavity, don’t hesitate to schedule a dental appointment. Remember, early detection and treatment can prevent cavities from causing more extensive damage to your teeth. Your smile is worth protecting, and by staying vigilant, you can ensure that your teeth remain healthy and strong for years to come.
