The average recommended dose of magnesium is 350–420 mg, but this was never meant to optimize brain and nervous system function. It’s the bare minimum to prevent deficiency, not support optimal health.

The form of magnesium matters. Many supplements use magnesium oxide, which has very low absorption and can limit results.

Magnesium glycinate is one of the best forms, with high absorption and better tolerance for the digestive system.

Only about 1% of magnesium is found in the blood, making deficiency difficult to detect with standard blood tests. An RBC magnesium test is slightly better, but still not fully accurate.

To support healthy magnesium levels, take 300–400 mg of magnesium glycinate a few times per day. This can help support blood pressure, reduce palpitations, and improve sleep.

These dangerous carbohydrates are often marketed as healthy, but they’re actually some of the worst carbs for your body. Discover how these "healthy" carbs spike your blood sugar and wreck your health.

I’ve already covered the most dangerous carbohydrate in the world. Here are 3 more carbs to avoid!

Agave nectar is often marketed as a healthy sweetener, similar to honey, but it’s made up of 80–90% fructose. Fructose is processed only by the liver, where it can create stress and is handled similarly to alcohol. Research has shown that agave syrup can significantly raise triglyceride levels.

Agave syrup is highly processed, with the final product containing more calories than table sugar!

High-fructose foods like agave syrup and fruit juice can contain more fructose than soda. Excess fructose intake is linked to liver damage, metabolic dysfunction, and changes in brain genes.

Over 30 million Americans have been told a 19 billion dollar lie. Find out what doctors don’t tell you about SSRI side effects, antidepressant effectiveness, and antidepressant risks that affect more people than you think.

Antidepressant effectiveness may be overstated. Irving Kirsch examined clinical trials on antidepressants and found that around 78% of them were unpublished, rewritten, or contained inflated results.

The “gold standard” for measuring depression is the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D), which relies on subjective reporting and was not originally created to diagnose depression.

In placebo-controlled trials, antidepressants did not significantly improve depression more than a sugar pill. A good night’s sleep can improve the symptoms of depression significantly more than medication.

Antidepressants come with a black box warning and many other side effects, including the following:

• Sexual dysfunction
• Post-SSRI sexual dysfunction
• Emotional blunting
• Discontinuation syndrome
• Insomnia
• Nausea
• Anxiety
• Depression

Exercise, St. John’s wort, omega-3s, and adequate sleep can help improve the symptoms of depression naturally.
