Q&A #01 - Understanding Anxiety: The Genetic Connection and Holistic Remedies

NOTE

The relationship between magnesium, anxiety, and physical pain

Dr. Greg explains the connection between magnesium and anxiety, emphasizing the importance of being cautious if you have a variant that increases anxiety. He also mentions the usefulness of reports that indicate mineral deficiencies. Chronic stress can deplete magnesium, which can manifest as physical pain.

It is crucial to ensure that COMT is functioning properly to clear excess neurotransmitters.
