Patient discussion about Anti-obesity drug.

Q. What's the best way to get more Magnesium in my diet (not pill supplements)? I am 28 years old and I am having several health issues. I am very much sensitive to noise and could not sleep even if there is a small sound. It really puts me down and I just cannot go in traffic. I get nervous if I hear a horn or siren. I do panic if I see few vehicles overtake mine and I am undergoing great stress. I am confused even while looking at menu card in the restaurant and I am feeling that my muscles are weak. I did several researches and even consulted few doctors. I did recently discover that magnesium deficiency may be causing/aggravating my situation. What's the best way to get more Magnesium in my diet (not pill supplements)?

A. Green vegetables such as spinach are good sources of magnesium because the center of the chlorophyll molecule (which gives green vegetables their color) contains magnesium. Some beans, peas, nuts, seeds, and whole, unrefined grains are also good sources of magnesium.

Q. Is there a medication that I can take for loosing weight? Maybe natural remedies? I would like to loose weight fast.

A. Unfortunately the term “no pain, no gain” should also be changed to ”no pain, no lose” here is an endocrinologist that talk about your question exactly:

After my first delivery I have been trying to lose weight to fit in frame before my husband gets back from London. I don’t have time to diet or work out. I like to take diet pills to reduce my weight. I need some suggestion. Thank you for your time!

A. there are some "diet" pills that has been tried over the years. non of them actually proven as affective... there was one that lowered the absorption of fat in the intestine, that one had a nasty side effect of oily anal leakage..and it proven to be not effective in the long run. all the diet pills have unwanted side effects that you really want to avoid. just go on a healthy diet that will work.
