What Are The Symptoms Of Magnesium Deficiency?

This episode is brought to you by Paleovalley, Athletic Greens, and
InsideTracker. The RDA, or Recommended Dietary Allowance, for
minerals is set to prevent deficiency, not to optimize health. Yet
even small amounts of mineral insufficiency can lead to big
problems. Unfortunately, the majority of Americans are deficient in
the mineral and essential nutrient magnesium. In today’s episode, I
talk with Dr. James DiNicolantonio, Dr. Todd LePine, and Dr.
Elizabeth Boham about the importance of magnesium and selecting the
best form of magnesium for your personal needs. Dr. James
DiNicolantonio is a Doctor of Pharmacy and a cardiovascular
research scientist. He has contributed extensively to health policy
and has testified in front of the Canadian Senate regarding the
harms of added sugars. He serves as the associate editor of the
British Medical Journal’s Open Heart, a journal published in
partnership with the British Cardiovascular Society, and is on the
editorial advisory boards of several other medical journals. He is
the author or coauthor of over 250 publications in the medical
literature. He also is the author of five bestselling health books,
The Salt Fix, Superfuel, The Longevity Solution, The Immunity Fix,
and The Mineral Fix. Dr. Todd LePine graduated from Dartmouth
Medical School and is board certified in Internal Medicine,
specializing in Integrative Functional Medicine. He is an Institute
for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner. Prior to joining

in Lenox, MA. Dr. LePine’s focus at The UltraWellness Center is to
