Magnesium: Your Secret Weapon for Better Health - AI Podcast
18 Jun 2025
Story at-a-glance Magnesium deficiency is widespread despite its key role in 600+ bodily functions; modern farming has depleted soil minerals and most people absorb only 30% to 40% of dietary magnesium Different forms of magnesium target specific health needs: glycinate for sleep and anxiety, malate for energy, citrate for digestion, threonate for brain function and taurate for heart health Common magnesium-rich foods like nuts and seeds aren't recommended because they contain inflammatory linoleic acid, which worsens metabolic health Magnesium deficiency contributes to serious health issues including insulin resistance, high blood pressure, poor glucose control and mitochondrial dysfunction Supplementation strategy matters: determine your ideal dose using magnesium citrate โ once your dose causes loose stools, dial back slightly โ then switch to glycinate or malate based on symptoms of tension/sleep issues or energy/focus problems
