Dr. Huberman's Magnesium Rule That Changed Everything

from Fuel Different · host Sarah Williams

You take your magnesium every night, but you still can't sleep. Your muscles still cramp. You still feel anxious. What if the problem isn't that magnesium doesn't work? What if you're accidentally blocking it from working? Sarah Williams breaks down Dr. Huberman's latest research on why 68% of us are magnesium deficient despite taking supplements. 🎯 What You'll Learn: • Why magnesium oxide (in 90% of supplements) only absorbs at 4% while magnesium glycinate hits 24% • The exact nutrients that block magnesium absorption by 50% when taken together • How your acid reflux medication might be creating a magnesium deficiency you don't know about • Simple timing tricks that triple your absorption without changing supplements 👤 Perfect for: anyone taking magnesium who isn't seeing results, or wondering why their sleep and stress levels haven't improved despite "doing everything right." 📍 Chapters: [00:00] Sarah Williams explains why your magnesium isn't working [01:45] The bioavailability problem nobody talks about [04:20] Which supplements and medications block absorption [06:50] Dr. Huberman's timing protocol that changes everything [09:30] Food sources that actually beat supplements [11:15] How to know if it's working (hint: not blood tests) Your magnesium deficiency might not show up on standard blood tests because only 1% of your body's magnesium is in your blood. The other 99% is in your bones and tissues, which means you could be severely deficient and never know it. But your body knows. That's why you're here. 🔔 Never miss an episode: Follow Fuel Different on your podcast app and turn on notifications.
