547: Craving Chocolate? Your Magnesium Might Not Be Working For You with Wade Lightheart

547: Craving Chocolate? Your Magnesium Might Not Be Working For You with Wade Lightheart

Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description

Do you crave chocolate almost every single day? There's a real reason for that, and it might be the same reason your magnesium isn't actually working.

If we are in midlife and we have ever been told to 'just add magnesium,' this episode is for us. Because here is what almost nobody explains. There is not just one magnesium. There are seven different forms. And every form does a completely different job in our body.

Most of us are taking one form. Usually the cheapest one. Usually the one that does almost nothing for the symptoms we are actually trying to fix. Then we wonder why magnesium 'is not working.'

Wade Lightheart is back on the show. He is the co-founder of BiOptimizers (the company behind Masszymes), a three-time Canadian national natural bodybuilding champion, and one of the world's leading authorities on natural nutrition and supplementation. Today we walk through every single form of magnesium, what each one does in a midlife woman's body, and why one capsule with all seven became the missing piece in my own routine.

This is the foundation underneath every other midlife thing we are already doing. The HRT. The protein. The lifting. The sleep work. None of it lands the way it should without this mineral in place.

WE GO DEEP ON:

• Why 'just add magnesium' is incomplete advice

• Why midlife women are running on a magnesium deficit and do not know it

• The 7 forms of magnesium and what each one actually does

• Sleep, cramps, anxiety, mood, bones, energy, recovery: which form does what

• Why magnesium taurate is one of the most under-discussed forms for women's hearts

• How estrogen, cortisol, and stomach acid affect our magnesium in midlife

• Why one capsule with all 7 forms (Magnesium Breakthrough) became my switch

• What women feel in the first night, the first week, the first three months
