If you’re making these common magnesium mistakes, they could be the reason your magnesium isn’t working.
Magnesium glycinate dosage doesn’t always reflect the amount of elemental magnesium you’re actually getting from your supplement. It’s critical to understand how to read the label so you can make sure you’re getting the proper dose.
The RDA for magnesium is 310–420 mg, and many clinical trials showing magnesium benefits use dosages around 400–500 mg. If it seems like magnesium isn’t working for you, make sure you’re taking enough.
Magnesium absorption also plays a role. If you’re not absorbing magnesium properly, you won’t experience its full benefits. You need adequate stomach acid to absorb magnesium. Gut inflammation and even genetics can also affect magnesium absorption.
If you’re doing everything right and still not experiencing any magnesium benefits, you may just need to give it more time!

In 2017, there was a significant spike in chronic diseases, including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes, with 31 million people reportedly diagnosed with hypertension overnight. As chronic disease continues to rise, what’s really causing it?
Insulin resistance, often linked to a high-carb diet, may be a major underlying factor in high blood pressure. Research-backed natural blood pressure remedies include garlic, hibiscus tea, the DASH diet, and exercise.
Reducing salt isn’t always the best solution. The sodium-to-potassium ratio is more important than focusing solely on sodium intake. Increasing potassium and magnesium while addressing insulin resistance can help support healthy blood pressure.
Common high blood pressure causes include:
• High sugar intake
• Chronic stress
• Sleep apnea
• Inflammation
• Low magnesium
• Low sunlight exposure
• Obesity
Lisinopril is a common blood pressure treatment, but it comes with potential side effects.

What constitutes an addiction, and what makes the most addictive substances so addictive? A big factor is how quickly the brain gets the reward it’s seeking.
Dopamine is a key driver of addiction, and it’s not a pleasure hormone like most people think. Dopamine plays a major role in wanting and seeking a reward, like opening the refrigerator and looking for something even though you’re already full.
One of the most powerful addictions today is smartphone addiction. Checking your texts, emails, and social media feeds can consume hours of your life. The average person checks their phone around 130 to 160 times per day! Smartphone addiction can become especially dangerous when it leads to behaviors like texting while driving.
One way to help break an addiction is to add friction and time between yourself and the behavior.

For a deeper dive on toenail fungus and the natural remedies that can help, check out this article: https://drbrg.co/4ArhIlp
Toenail fungus is often thought to live on sugar, but that’s not actually the case. Why some people develop toenail fungus while others don’t can be influenced by several factors, including immune function.
Fungal nail infections are more common in people with weakened immune systems, and factors like chronic stress and diabetes can also increase the risk. This may also help explain why toenail fungus can be so difficult to eliminate and why it often comes back.
Common remedies for toenail fungus include:
• Epsom salt
• Tea tree oil
• Castor oil
• Garlic
• Black seed oil
Even fasting may help with recurring toenail fungus by supporting autophagy, the body’s natural cleanup process.

Diet, exercise, and supplements won’t work as well if your sleep quality is poor. Sleep is essential for detoxifying the brain, making healthy sleep a critical part of your overall health.
Diet also plays an important role in sleep quality. Snacking late at night can interfere with healthy sleep. Try eating earlier and practicing intermittent fasting and a low-carb diet. Kefir and L. reuteri yogurt are two foods that can help support better sleep.
Alcohol may seem to help you fall asleep, but it can interfere with sleep quality and inhibit deep sleep. Caffeine can also keep you awake, so watch out for hidden sources of caffeine.
Stretching before bed and focusing on hobbies that reduce stress during the day can also help you relax and sleep better.
Adequate sodium and potassium, along with magnesium glycinate before bed, can support better sleep. Vitamin D and white noise are also beneficial.
If you’re just starting keto and having trouble sleeping through the night, you may notice improvements within 1 to 2 weeks as your body adjusts to burning fat.
Stop snacking before bed! One of the easiest ways to do this is to stop buying snack foods. Focus on choline-rich and sulfur-rich foods to support liver health and help fuel your brain throughout the night.
