Why I Love Magnesium

Did you know that magnesium deficiency leads to abnormal heart rhythms, personality changes, seizures, muscle cramps, numbness, and an increased risk or diabetes? [1] As scary as this sounds, a large number of Americans do not meet their required daily intake of this macronutrient. [2]

With this in mind, eating magnesium-rich foods such as dairy products, whole grains, leafy green vegetables, seeds, nuts, and legumes should be a dietary priority. Here’s what you stand to gain:

1. Relieves Pain: Magnesium deficiency is linked to a higher risk of migraines. [3] One study showed that consuming 1 gram of the macronutrient was effective against an acute migraine attack. [4]

2. Helps You Sleep: Magnesium helps relax your nerves and muscles, preparing your body for sleep. [5]

3. Lowers the Risk of Diabetes: Magnesium inhibits C-reactive protein, which is associated with an increased risk of diabetes. [6]

4. Reduces Tinnitus: A study in the International Tinnitus Journal concluded that “magnesium may have a beneficial effect on the perception of tinnitus-related handicap.” [7]

5. Improves moods: The mineral helps with nerve function, influences your mood, and reduces the risk of depression. [8][9]

6. Relieves Stress: Reduce your stress hormone levels by supplementing your diet with magnesium. [10]

7. Healthy Bones and Teeth: With 60% of your magnesium content residing in your bones, it’s logical to increase your intake to improve teeth and bone health. [11]

8. Proper Heart Function: Dietary magnesium reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease. [12]

9. Alleviates PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome): Studies show that a healthy intake of magnesium improves PMS symptoms such as fluid retention and mood changes. [13][14]

10. Reduces Muscle Tension: Supplementing your diet with magnesium helps dispose of lactate and move blood sugar into the muscle, releasing tension. [15]

😳 What Tinnitus Does To Your Brain Cells (And How To Stop It)

After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.

As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.

Even more interesting: The reason why top army officials are not deaf after decades of hearing machine guns, bombs going off and helicopter noises…

Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...
