Powerful Magnesium Benefits for Health & Performance | Natalie Jurado @ BeRootedIn

Magnesium is one of the most neglected and underrated minerals -- largely because it isn't flashy. However, magnesium is an essential nutrient that your body can't do without. Magnesium deficiency is known to cause:
- Sleep issues
- Heart problems
- Anxiety
- Depression

And much more.

Optimal magnesium levels support:
- Muscle building and athletic performance
- Nervous system health
- Detoxification
- "feel-good" neurotransmitter production
- Mood
- Hormone production
- Stress relief
- Cardiovascular health

But it's not equal.

Many popular forms are not absorbed well and are useless. The best forms of magnesium include:
- Magnesium glycinate (sleep)
- Magnesium malate (energy)
- Magnesium chloride (pain and soreness)
- Magnesium sulfate (anti-stress and relaxation)

In this video, Natalie and I discuss the health benefits of magnesium, how it can help you be happier and healthier, and what kind of magnesium supplement may be best for you.
