Ep.23: Magnesium 101

Magnesium is one of the most important minerals in the body and yet, most people are unknowingly deficient. From anxiety to cramps, poor sleep to constipation, low magnesium might be playing a bigger role in how you feel than you think.In this episode, I unpack the vital functions of magnesium, why modern life (and stress!) depletes our stores, what I commonly see in Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) testing, and the many different forms of magnesium supplements available plus how to know which one might be right for you.You’ll also hear about food sources of magnesium, signs and symptoms of deficiency, and why it’s not just about what you take, but what your body can retain.This episode is for educational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice. Always consult with a qualified healthcare professional before starting any new supplement, especially if you’re taking medication or managing a health condition.Loved this episode?Please subscribe, leave a review, or share it with someone who could use a magnesium reset!Want to explore your mineral status or work with me more closely?
