Transcript

These are the supplements that every human being should be taking better you worse out or not. First and foremost, without question, magnesium. It's estimated that fifty to sixty five percent of The United States is moderately to severely deficient in this essential mineral. Magnesium is responsible for hundreds of enzymatic processes in the body. Here are a few of them. Number one, ATP or adenosine triphosphate production. ATP is our body's quickest and most immediate energy source. When I do this, I'm using ATP. People often recommend creatine to increase ATP production for increased strength and performance in the gym. You need magnesium to produce ATP. You also need magnesium as a precursor to serotonin and dopamine production, which are both critical neurotransmitters for well-being, focus, and calmness. There are studies that show strong correlations between increased level of magnesium supplementation and a decrease in anxious and depressive tendencies likely because of the increase in serotonin and dopamine. Also a precursor to melatonin production, which you need for sleep. The only forms I would recommend you take are magnesium threonate or glycinate. Magnesium threonate is magnesium bound with threonic acid. It can more easily cross our blood brain barrier where it can support cognition and the production of that
