Episode 2: Why You Need To Watch Your Magnesium Levels

Welcome to the podcast, where we discuss how food can be your medicine or poison. In this episode, we focus on one of the most essential minerals for your health: magnesium. Magnesium is involved in over 300 biochemical reactions in your body, affecting your bones, blood pressure, heart rhythm, and more. Many people are deficient in magnesium due to factors such as stress, poor diet, medication, and alcohol. How can you tell if you are low in magnesium? Some of the common symptoms are leg cramps, spasms, fatigue, weakness, irregular heartbeat, mood changes, irritability, headaches, insomnia, high blood pressure, and constipation. If you have any of these signs, you might want to increase your magnesium-rich foods and beverages. We will share with you some of the best sources of magnesium and how to incorporate them into your daily meals.

Our goal is to help you change your mindset on food in 2024. We want you to see food as a way to nourish your body and prevent diseases, not as a source of pleasure or pain. That's why we partnered with Ziscuit, a grocery search engine that helps you find low-cost grocery items by comparing local store prices.
