Magnesium is as bad as serotonin when too high
-
@user1 complex 456 mg elemental daily, as I have a diet making up around +- 8 liters of milk daily

@pittybitty in excess it increases it

Ok. Calcium on its own doesnt contribute significantly and positively to any of the things you mentionned below:
It makes you compliant, less assertive, malleable, weak. It mutes your personality, makes you less funny, susceptible to suggestions because calcium isn't there to light up the warning signal on odd suggestions, etc. I had to learn it the hard way, Be careful out there
@lobotomize what else you eat beside milk these days? You can link if you already said it explicitly on another thread

- I said magnesium causes it, not calcium (it’s in the title of the thread).
- I said I drink milk and orange juice, use salt, liver once a week, and a couple of other things, but that has nothing to do with the thread. Please, if you don’t understand the english, use gpt to translate it into your native language.

I understand english better than you. You said magnesium has the negatives effects you listed due to calcium not being present, calcium in it self does not cause "assertiveness" "boundaries" and whatever else you mentionned. So the reason you get these effects from magnesium supp is potentially not related to calcium at all. Yes what else you eat has everything to do with this thread because it could explain why you get these effects from magnesium supp.

Calcium is the brain's primary on switch, essential for neurotransmitter release and rapid neuronal firing. Magnesium
acts as a functional antagonist by providing a voltage-dependent block of NMDA receptors, physically plugging the ion channel to prevent calcium influx. While this prevents over excitation, excessive magnesium intake creates a state of hypo excitability.
This dampens neural signaling and reduces cognitive resilience, making you more susceptible to external suggestions and intrusive stimuli because your prefrontal cortex lacks the excitatory "voltage" required to critically filter or counteract incoming information. -
Assertiveness is a high energy cognitive state dependent on the rapid release of catecholamines. To hold your ground in a confrontation, your brain must fire at high frequencies to maintain alertness and retrieve words quickly. Excess magnesium directly inhibits the release of these "fight or flight" neurotransmitters. As a result, your brain senses its inability to fire at the necessary speed and defaults to a path of least resistance. You avoid confrontation not out of choice, but because the physiological "lag" makes verbal sparring feel mentally exhausting and impossible to win.
-
Humor is an associative leap that requires extreme synaptic plasticity. Being funny relies onthe brain’s ability to instantly bridge two unrelated concepts to create a punchline. This process is governed by NMDA receptors When these receptors are chronically blocked by magnesium, your "associative speed" is throttled.
-
Personality is expressed through dynamic emotional range the excitatory "peaks" that make you distinct. High magnesium levels induce emotional blunting by acting as a ceiling on neural activity. It doesn't just lower anxiety; it mutes the intensity of your character. By suppressing the excitatory signals that drive charisma, quirky behaviors, and individual "spark," magnesium rounds off your personality traits, leaving you as a muted, stoic, and less distinct version of yourself.

@lobotomize did drinking more milk or high calcium foods or calcium supps quickly fixed the effects you got from magnesium?
-
@user1 calc acetate did
-
Do you take note of what foods you're consuming the calcium acetate around? Calcium acetate is the main ingredient in many phosphorus binders that are prescribed to those with kidney failure. It can still be great for the average person if you have excess phosphorus in a meal and are trying to balance out your Ca/Phos ratio in general.
However, if you're taking calc acetate as a supplement, and its coming in contact with any phos from food in the digestive tract, it should then effectively bind to form tricalcium phosphate which is then passed out in the stool without either mineral being absorbed. -
@sphagnum i take it with milk . Que viva el mejor
