Has anyone with PAF noticed that the episodes decreased with Mg supplements?

It is so claimed by some. I have been taking Mg for years.

I'm pretty sure magnesium reduces my ectopics.

I take magnesium glycinate for more than a year now, but only 2×125mg daily. I can't tell if it helped since a lot happened in the last year, ablation being the biggest event. But the fact is that I started taking magnesium a week or so after my last afib episode and that was way back in December'23. So Im not sure if it had some effect. It didn't hurt my health that's for sure.

No afib coming up on a year - my mix every day

In one liter of water -

Taurine 8g powder – Nutricost Brand

Magnesium Chloride 500mg powder – Pure Brand

Potassium Citrate 1400mg powder approx. 1 ½ teaspoons- Bulk Supplements Brand

Beet Root Powder 1 Teaspoon – Bulk Supplements Brand

Celtic Salt - Just a pinch

Thanks. I followed your reddit post and read the articles at the links. I think we may be on to something. I've gone 6 mths without an episode . Not quite your regime but taking Mg and eating a banana a day.

My Naturopath put me on Nutri Mega Mag Muscleze partnered with CoQ10 11 years ago - said he put all his patients on that. His reasoning being Mg relaxes & CoQ10 strengthens the heart thus improving the beat. I have continued with the CoQ10 albeit reduced the dose a tad and have stopped and started the Nutri more so. Coincidentally, I am restarting Nutri today after a longish break as my AF has changed pattern this year.

Mg Taurate appears to be quite a favourite amongst others here. The good thing about the Nutri mentioned above is that it contains a convenient mixture of the heart beneficial supplements including taurine, see ingredients.
