Just our reality is more stressful.
But then put on top of that, our work demands, relationship demands. How would you know if you're magnesium deficient? You can get a test done, but I really always.

And what I was going to say is I always err on the side of how do you look, feel, and perform, you know? And in my practice, there were only a couple supplements I would recommend. Magnesium was generally, and maybe for 80% of the people that came in, because there's such a tendency for people to be deficient in it. And so, but here's the issue. So food first, obviously.
