Episode199- What Are The Health Benefits of Magnesium

The Health Benefits of Magnesium 

Welcome to another weekend short of The Matter Over Mind Experience 

This is your host Master Trainer & Weight Management Expert, Narado Zeco Powell 

This weekend let’s discuss the benefits of Magnesium

Most of us don’t get enough of this nutrient

I will break this down and how you can improve your magnesium levels through food or supplement or both

Let’s begin 

There are studies that show that up to 50% of Americans do not get enough magnesium 

This can lead to chronic Magnesium deficiency which has been shown to cause mental health conditions, bone issues like osteoporosis, fatigue & weakness, high blood pressure, irregular heartbeat & more 

There are clinics to test your magnesium levels, I prefer blood tests vs urine tests because the right blood test can show cell saturation

Now, these are some ways to improve your magnesium levels 

Let’s start with some magnesium rich foods:

  1. Dark leafy greens
  2. Pistachios & almonds
  3. Berries 
  4. Dark chocolate 

If you need to supplement, some good options are magnesium lotions and sprays 

There are also oral supplements 

As a bonus, taking a supplement before bed can improve sleep quality 

There it is!

Enjoy your weekend fam!
