THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: BIOptimizers - Do you know if you’re getting enough magnesium? Because four out of five Americans aren’t. And that’s a big problem because magnesium is involved in more than 300 biochemical reactions in your body. There are dozens of symptoms of magnesium deficiency: anxiety, insomnia, muscle cramps or twitches, high blood pressure, constipation, these are just a few of the most common ones.

That’s why I exclusively recommend Magnesium Breakthrough. It’s the only full-spectrum magnesium supplement with 7 unique forms of magnesium that your body can actually use and absorb.
