Magnesium: A Natural Beta-Blocker For Hyperthyroidism

Prescription beta-blockers, often deemed necessary to stabilize heart rate in Graves Disease patients, can have some unpleasant side effects, such has impaired circulation, fatigue, weakness, and cold hands. Magnesium is a natural beta-blocker that inhibits hormones which increase heart rate, such as norepinephrine and epinephrine. It does this without the fatigue and other symptoms associated with prescription beta-blockers. Graves Disease patients owe it to themselves to have their magnesium levels checked by a doctor or naturopathic physician and to ask about supplementing with magnesium.
