Magnesium: The Deficiency Nobody Is Diagnosing

from The Arc Woman Podcast · host Arc Woman

🎙️ Magnesium is involved in over 600 enzymatic reactions in the body and yet roughly half of all women aren't getting enough of it. This episode covers where magnesium comes from, why modern diets and farming practices have left us depleted, and why the standard blood test your doctor orders is almost certainly missing the full picture.🧬 We break down what magnesium actually does inside the body: how it unlocks ATP energy production, regulates the nervous system, activates vitamin D, supports estrogen clearance through the COMT enzyme, and sits at the centre of sleep, blood sugar, thyroid function, and hormonal health.⚡ We look at the RDI and whether current nutritional science backs it up, the top food sources and what helps or blocks absorption, and a full breakdown of every supplemental form so you can choose the right magnesium for what your body actually needs.🩺 The episode closes with magnesium's specific applications for PCOS, endometriosis, adenomyosis, PMS and PMDD, perimenopause, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis.🛒 I've curated my favourite magnesium supplements over on my iHerb storefront the forms I actually recommend and use.
