Your Brain on Magnesium: Younger, Sharper, Stronger - AI Podcast

25 Jun 2025

Description

Both low and high magnesium levels increase dementia risk, while optimal levels support brain health by reducing inflammation and preserving neural function People who consume more magnesium have measurably larger brains with fewer damaged areas; those with the highest intake had brain structures that appeared nearly one year younger than average Magnesium works synergistically with vitamin D for cognitive benefits, with studies showing better memory and processing speed in people who have sufficient levels of both nutrients Modern soil depletion has reduced magnesium in foods, and only 30% to 40% of dietary magnesium is absorbed; this makes supplementation beneficial for most people Magnesium glycinate and malate are recommended supplement forms; nuts and seeds should be avoided as magnesium sources due to their high linoleic acid content
