Feeling fatigued, experiencing muscle cramps, or having trouble sleeping? The solution to your problems may be simpler than you think: magnesium. In this episode of The Well Drop podcast, I am joined by Wade Lightheart, co-founder of BiOptimizers and a leading expert on optimizing human performance. We discuss that most people, especially women, are deficient in this critical mineral due to modern farming practices and high-stress lifestyles. We dive deep into how the right magnesium supplement can be a game-changer for navigating perimenopause symptoms and optimizing overall health, which magnesium misconceptions to avoid, how to choose a high-quality supplement, and the ideal dosage to start seeing results.Wade T. Lightheart is a Certified Sports Nutritionist, advisor and president/director of education, and cofounder of BIOptimizers. As a plant-based and drug-free athlete for more than two decades, Wade is a three-time National Natural Bodybuilding Champion who competed in both the IFBB Mr. Universe and the INBA Natural Olympia by the age of 31. At the age of 50, Wade came out of retirement to win the Open Men’s and Grand Master’s Categories at the INBA Ironman International, then competed at The PNBA Natural Olympia. Six months later, Wade successfully ran his first marathon in four hours.What we discuss:01:00 Context of Magnesium Deficiency07:01 The Importance of Magnesium for Women15:53 Exploring Different Forms of Magnesium21:11 The Importance of Bioavailability in Supplements27:06 Magnesium: A Key Supplement for Women34:12 Misconceptions About MagnesiumFind more from Wade Lightheart: Website: https://bioptimizers.com/ Instagram: @bioptimizersFind more from Dina and Amber:Website: www.thewelldrop.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewelldrop/ Thank you to our sponsor:BiOptimizers Magnesium: Shop here and use code WELLDROP10
