@anne4u, pain, stress and medications cause a loss of magnesium possibly creating a deficiency. This impacts thiamine and vitamin D as both require magnesium to become bioactive. Vitamin B2 along with activated thiamine are needed to activate vitamin B6. The B vitamins work better together. The first two links offer the effects of B vitamins on conditions similar to some you have mentioned. The ncbi link reviews the fifth element...boron, which often goes unnoticed, yet brings an enormous number of benefits to the table. A Youtube video by Dr. Jorge Flechas MD on boron is riveting. The krispin link is offers additional magnesium information. Always consult your health care professional before using any supplement.

Thank you for this information! I have read about these important supplements and the balance between them. I do take some supplements now, but am always interested in staying current on findings and what will help maintain what my body needs to be healthy. I try to do as much as possible with diet, etc. Medication is a concern as they all have a trade off, some side effect! Ideally I would prefer to be off of them! That’s the goal!

Thank you for the information at this point I'm willing to try anything.
