Just so you know, my full line of high-quality supplements is available on Amazon — search Dr. Berg Supplements.
Thiazide diuretics are the most commonly prescribed blood pressure medications and are taken by more than 40 million people. While they help remove excess sodium, they can also deplete magnesium, an essential mineral involved in blood pressure control.
Without enough magnesium, calcium can build up inside the arteries, causing them to become more constricted. This is why calcium channel blockers are commonly used for high blood pressure. Magnesium acts as a natural calcium channel blocker and natural beta blocker.
Many diuretics for high blood pressure can also deplete potassium. Potassium and magnesium work together to help keep the arteries relaxed, yet deficiencies in both nutrients are very common. Potassium also depends on adequate magnesium to function properly.
Vitamin D deficiency may also contribute to hypertension, and vitamin D relies on magnesium for proper activation and function.
High blood pressure is often viewed as a sodium problem, but focusing solely on reducing sodium intake may overlook other important factors and cause other problems. Addressing potassium and magnesium deficiencies could be a better way supporting healthy blood pressure levels.

New Book from Whatfinger’s Own: “Time’s Orphans” – A Must-Read for Every Patriot
Folks, if you’ve been with Whatfinger from the beginning — back when we were calling out the lies, fighting the woke mind virus, and standing up for truth while the mainstream media sold their souls — then I’ve got something special for you.
“Time’s Orphans” – Book 1 of the Medieval Future Series — written by our own Michael Anthony — just dropped on Amazon.
This isn’t some generic sci-fi novel. This is our story.
- Whatfinger crew members (Beth, Ben, Pat, and others) are on Elon Musk’s first Ark, carrying humanity’s last hope across the stars.
- Elon himself is in it — the man who actually built the damn thing.
- Trump gets the respect he deserves as the leader who fought for America when it mattered most.
- The crew makes the hard calls patriots understand: protecting the future, rejecting the lies of Big Pharma, and refusing to let the next generation be destroyed by the same evil we watched unfold on Earth.
The immortals on the Ark vote to hide the truth about resets so their children will actually have families and build something worth fighting for. They carry the weight of that decision across centuries… only to reach a new world full of dragons, ancient secrets, and the same old human struggles between freedom and tyranny.
It’s packed with everything we stand for:
- Unapologetic truth-telling
- Love of real America
- Rage against the machine that lied to us about the vax and everything else
- Hope that humanity can still build something great even after the fall
If you’ve ever wanted to see a story where the good guys are the ones who backed Trump, backed Musk, backed free speech, backed real science over corporate lies, and refused to bow to the globalist reset — this book is for you.
Time’s Orphans is the beginning of something big. A series that blends hard sci-fi with epic future history, written by one of our own.

Leave a review if you love it. Share it with your friends. Let’s push this one up the charts and show the establishment that real Americans are still creating, still fighting, and still dreaming big.
The fight continues — even among the stars.

Book II goes serious Game of Thrones style with even more politics, America love…. Surely will be destroyed by the Left in comments/reviews once we advertise the books. – Mike – CLICK HERE for Shadows Of The Ark
