Magnesium glycinate is the most powerful sleep aid no one’s talking about.

One dose calms nighttime anxiety, boosts deep sleep by 30%, and leaves you recharged and clear-headed by morning.

In this thread, I’ll explain how it works and how to use it safely🧵 Image

Magnesium is needed for 300+ enzymatic reactions within your body.

But here’s the real shocker:

Nearly 70% of people are deficient, and most don't know it.

Fatigue, cramps, mood swings, poor sleep?

It might not be burnout... it could actually be a mineral deficiency.
Magnesium is neuroelectric currency.

Your brain uses it to control neurons, fire muscles, and calm your nervous system.

Deficiency? You feel:

- Wired but tired
- Panicked for no reason
- Like your battery won't recharge

Here's what happens if you get enough:
Deep sleep?

Magnesium is your access key.

It helps regulate GABA, a neurotransmitter that slows brain activity.

Low GABA = racing thoughts.
High GABA = effortless sleep.

Magnesium glycinate is the most effective & commonly used form for deep sleep.

What about mental health?
Ok, let's be clear here.

Anxiety isn't just mental.

It's chemical.

Magnesium lowers cortisol and inhibits the HPA axis (your stress engine).

No magnesium = no brakes on anxiety.

The next benefit is kind of mind-blowing:
Magnesium was a game-changer for my sleep quality.

If you want a high-quality Magnesium Glycinate paired with some of the best 100% natural and proven sleep enhancers...

I found it.

Physical recovery is magnesium-dependent.

It controls ATP (the molecule your body uses for energy and repair).

Without magnesium?

Muscle soreness lingers, injuries take longer to heal.

"But can I mess up when taking magnesium?"

Yes... kind of. Read this:
Here’s where most people mess up:

They take the wrong form.

Magnesium oxide = cheap, poorly absorbed
Magnesium citrate = better, but can cause laxative effect

So what works best?
You want Magnesium glycinate or Magnesium L-threonate.

- Glycinate = calm, recovery, sleep
- L-threonate = brain function, memory, learning

High absorption. No side effects. Maximum benefit.

But what if you wanted to get all your magnesium from only food?
Here's the top magnesium sources:

– Pumpkin seeds
– Spinach
– Almonds
– Black beans
– Dark chocolate
– Avocados
– Bananas

But the harsh truth?

Even with a perfect diet, soil depletion makes it hard to hit optimal levels... that’s why most still supplement.
I take these Magnesium Glycinate gummies.

They're great quality, 3rd party tested, and have a touch of L'Theanine to compliment their sleep benefits.

Try them here:

What to avoid:

- Taking it with calcium (they compete)
- Multi-vitamins with low-dose forms
- Synthetic garbage from big-box stores

It blew my mind when I seen how many grocery store options were full of Magnesium oxide.

Pro tip: Take it with fat for better absorption.
Dosing:

- 200–400 mg per day is the sweet spot
- Best taken at night for calming effect (30min-1hr before bed)

Some experts have said to take between 500 - 800mg depending on the person.

But overdoing it isn't 'better'.

Too much = diarrhea, kidney strain.
I hope this helps you become a stronger, healthier, version of yourself.

The hidden cause of stubborn belly fat, fatigue, and brain fog:

Insulin resistance.

Warning signs appear long before a diabetes diagnosis.

Here are 5 early signs to watch for (share this with someone you love)🧵

1. Skin tags. Image
Image
1. Skin tags

Insulin triggers excess growth signals to skin cells.

Over time, this creates small raised tags... often on the neck or armpits.

They’re an early warning: your cells are no longer responding well to insulin.

Ignore this, and the next signs get harder to miss...
2. Dark patches on the neck or armpits

High insulin increases activity in pigment cells (melanocytes), creating dark, velvety skin folds.

This change will usually appears before lab markers do.

Once your skin reflects metabolic dysfunction, what's happening inside?

You’re not anxious.

You’re overdosing on your own cortisol.

Here are 9 body-based ways to break the stress loop 🧵

1. Tremoring (aka Neurogenic Shaking) Image
Image
Modern stress isn’t mental.

It’s chemical.

When cortisol stays elevated for too long, it rewires your brain to expect threat... even when none exists.

Your body becomes the source of your fear.

Here’s how to physically interrupt that loop, and reset your nervous system:
1. Tremoring (aka Neurogenic Shaking)

Animals naturally shake after stress. Humans suppress it.

But this trembling discharges stored tension from the nervous system.

Try this: Lie down and let your legs shake freely for 2–3 minutes.

It looks odd. It works fast.

No matter how healthy you eat...

Your body won’t recover if your sleep is off.

Most people overlook the small changes that unlock real rest and full recovery.

So here are 8 that actually work 🧵 Image
Image
1. Keep your bedroom under 19°C

Your core temp must drop ~1°C to fall into deep sleep.

A cool room supports this drop.

In one NIH study, people in 19°C rooms had more stable REM and less waking during the night.
2. Avoid blue light at night

Screens trick your brain into thinking it's daytime.

Even 2 hours of late-night screen exposure can suppress melatonin by up to 50%.

Use blue light filters or wear amber glasses after 8PM.

Your brain has a secret detox system that activates when you sleep:

The Glymphatic System.

When clogged, it traps toxins tied to Alzheimer's, brain fog & memory loss.

99% of people don't know it exists.

Here's how to activate it & protect your brain🧵 Image

In 2012, scientists discovered something that stunned the medical world:

The brain has a hidden plumbing system.

One that only activates when you're asleep.

And if it's disrupted?

You slowly and silently start losing clarity, memory, & mental sharpness.
It's called the Glymphatic System.

And it may be the most important biological discovery in neuroscience this century.

Think of it as your brain’s trash disposal unit.

It flushes out toxic waste that if left, accelerates brain aging and disease.

But here's the twist:

If your blood sugar spikes all day, your fat-burning switch stays off.

Most people stay stuck here for years without realizing it.

So here are 10 ways to reset blood sugar and unlock fat-burning again🧵

1. Start your day with protein, not sugar. Image
Image
1. Start your day with protein, not sugar

Most people start the day spiking insulin (cereal, toast, or a smoothie).

A high-protein breakfast (30g+) increases GLP-1, stabilizes glucose, and reduces cravings for 24 hours.

Think eggs, not instant oatmeal.
2. Walk after every meal

Just 10 minutes post-meal lowers blood sugar spikes by up to 30%.

Why it works:

It triggers GLUT-4 activation in muscles, pulling glucose from your bloodstream without needing insulin.

Less insulin = more fat-burning.
