Oh, great question. Your glycinates, your taurates, your citrates, and l-theranates are good because they're readily absorbed into the bloodstream. So now we have nice magnesium levels in our blood. There's also benefit. Some of them are better than others about crossing that blood-brain barrier. So the brain protects itself. There's a membrane around the brain

that it doesn't have this 100% free flow of nutrients back and forth. It's really selective about what it lets in. So Mag-L-Thurinate, which Magteen or Neuromag are the brand names, has been studied in SSRI-resistant depression. So antidepressant-resistant depression in patients. They've added in this. It seemed to be helpful. And my patients and followers, it's so helpful for sleep, anxiety.

So pumpkin seeds, spinach, leafy greens are rich in mag generally. I have a lot of lists on my website where we list all this stuff. Great, we will link to all this. And what's the third thing? So I'm always looking at omega-3 fatty acids. Omegas are usually found in fatty fish, also in flax. One of my favorite ways, I'll do this little yogurt and I'll have flax, hemp, and chia seeds.

So I'm just hitting all my antioxidants, my anti-inflammatory, my fiber all in one. So omega-3s, if you can't get a good source of that, that's a very reasonable thing to supplement every day. One of the richest sources of that is gonna be your salmon, your mackerel, your tuna, your fatty fish, your cold water fish.

And then I check a vitamin D level on every woman who'll let me stick a needle in her. 80% of my patients, not just low, I mean deficient. And there's a million reasons for this. We don't absorb it very well because our gut health declines. We're protecting our skin from the sun, you know, which is another place. And we're not really creating it in our skin as fast as we used to.

So, and vitamin D is a hormone that has a million, you know, processes in the body. So I'm like, let's start here and get those vitamin D levels up because you're just not working as efficiently as you could. So again, about 70, 80% of my patients have an unexplained, no changes in diet or exercise, rise in cholesterol, absolutely secondary to estrogen deficiency.

And again, rushing to put her on a statin is not, will make her cholesterol go down, but is not going to decrease her risk of cardiovascular disease. And women who are on HRT have higher HDLs and lower LDLs than women who are not when you compare the two groups. So just being menopausal is an independent risk factor for an unhealthy cholesterol profile. So what kind of exercise is critical?
