Magnesium deficiency might be the missing piece behind your fatigue, sleep, and stress — and most people don't even know they have it. In this Supplement Spotlight episode, I'm breaking down everything you need to know about magnesium: why it's one of the most common mineral deficiencies today, the signs your body might be low, and why standard bloodwork often misses it entirely. We'll also cover the four main types of magnesium — glycinate, citrate, malate, and threonate — and which one actually fits your specific symptoms, whether that's poor sleep, anxiety, muscle cramps, low energy, or brain fog. If you've tried "a magnesium supplement" before and felt nothing, this episode explains exactly why the type matters as much as taking it at all. In this episode: Why magnesium deficiency is so widespread, even with a "healthy" diet The most common signs of low magnesium (sleep issues, anxiety, muscle cramps, fatigue, headaches) Why blood tests often fail to catch magnesium deficiency Magnesium glycinate vs. citrate vs. malate vs. threonate — what each is actually best for How to choose the right type of magnesium for your specific symptoms If you're ready to stop guessing and get real answers about what's going on with your minerals and hormones, book a free discovery call —or head to wendyhandy.com
