What You Didn’t Know About Magnesium

Magnesium deficiency could be the silent culprit behind your anxiety.

A 2017 review of 18 studies confirmed that magnesium significantly reduces various forms of anxiety, including mild anxiety, premenstrual syndrome, postpartum anxiety, and generalized anxiety. But if magnesium is the solution, why isn't everyone stress-free?

The problem is two-fold:

  1. Widespread Deficiency: Almost everyone is severely deficient in magnesium, even those meeting the "recommended daily dose." Higher stress levels, especially among ambitious individuals, require much higher doses.
  2. Ineffective Supplements: Most magnesium supplements fail to alleviate stress. Modern agriculture has depleted our soil and diet of magnesium, leaving up to 80% of the population deficient. Most products contain only 1-3 forms of magnesium, while our bodies need all 7 forms.

Now, imagine the transformation when your body gets ALL the magnesium it needs, in all the forms it requires, at the optimal dosage. Synthetic and incomplete magnesium supplements are often not recognized by your body, rendering them ineffective.

Unlock the Full Benefits of Magnesium

Magnesium can significantly reduce anxiety and improve brain function. A 2017 review of 18 studies confirmed its effectiveness. Yet, most people remain severely deficient, even with the "recommended daily dose," especially under high stress.

Most supplements fall short because they are synthetic and lack the full spectrum of magnesium forms needed for optimal health.

Don’t settle for ineffective products. Ensure your body gets all seven forms of magnesium for better sleep, improved performance, and overall wellness.
