What is the Best Magnesium to Take? (Advice for Super Survivors) | Wade Lightheart
from The Menopause Midwife · host Missy Miculka
This week, I’m joined by Wade Lightheart, co-founder of Bioptimizers and a three-time natural bodybuilding champion, to dive deep into one of the most talked-about nutrients in modern health: magnesium. We explore how every listener is a "super survivor" and why this miracle mineral is responsible for over 600 biochemical reactions, including estrogen detoxification, thyroid hormone conversion, and cellular energy activation.We break down the "Bucket Theory" of nutrition, and Wade explains the science behind full-spectrum magnesium and why taking just one form (like magnesium citrate) might lead to a "GI barrier" breakthrough rather than actual cellular absorption.Whether you want magnesium to help you tune your hormone replacement therapy, optimize your nervous system, boost your sleep quality, or achieve radical levels of energy, tune in to this episode to learn how to fill your bucket and reclaim your vitality.Ready to try Magnesium Breakthrough?
