Transcript to SHR # 2541 :: Which Form of Magnesium is Best and Why PLUS An Unintended Way Weight Lifting Makes Aging Easier

[00:00:00] Carl Lanore: [00:00:00] I should open my microphone. Shouldn't I, I could blame it on my eye or COVID welcome back to another episode of supreme-a radio. We have a really important show for you today because a lot of people know about the importance of magnesium, but there's a lot of confusion about magnesium, which is the best form and why, and what does it do?

[00:00:20] And we're going to get into that here in just a moment. With Matt Gallant and Wade Lightheart from BiOptimizers. Uh, before we do that, of course I have to thank my title sponsor legendary foods. Right now. If you go to eat legendary.com, you can use the code SHR. You'll get 10% off your entire order, please.

[00:00:37] If you have not tried the tasty pastry yet, you must. If you loved pop tarts as a kid, You're going to love the tasty Patri as an adult, because it has nine grams of high quality, high leucine protein, and less than one gram of sugar. Uh, non-GMO, it's an amazing product and buy them for your kids. Don't tell them it's good for them and they won't eat it, but, uh, absolutely check them out [00:01:00] without further delay.

[00:01:03] I will share the screen. Now  with Matt Golan, who is to my left. And of course Wade Lightheart who's right beneath the two of us. How are you guys doing?

[00:01:16] Matt Gallant: [00:01:16] You're

[00:01:16] Wade Lightheart: [00:01:16] doing great, Carl.

[00:01:17] Carl Lanore: [00:01:17] Okay. Just want to make sure you can hear me. I got nervous for a second. I had the sound boy drop out in the middle of the show yesterday. Um, so that was a catastrophe yesterday.

[00:01:27] Wade Lightheart: [00:01:27] So I won't be home internet trouble Titone on today too. So maybe it's a universal thing,

[00:01:32] Carl Lanore: [00:01:32] you know, because people who do good work, they, they don't get the, the, the right of way in today's environment.

[00:01:39] So let's talk about magnesium for a second. Um, Magnesium is a nutrient that is very, very important to the body by the, by the national institutes of health own estimations, magnesium is responsible for a variety of processes that affect muscle nerve function, uh, blood sugar. And [00:02:00] it looks like I'm getting a message here.

[00:02:02] We are still alive. Okay. Um, if, if anybody lost it, just go back to the podcast, but magnesium is a very, very important, uh, mineral. It's an electrolyte, it affects heart function and so on and so forth. And it's, it's spoken about today because they say that most Americans and probably Europeans as well, a deficient in magnesium who wants to grab this first

[00:02:27] Matt Gallant: [00:02:27] I'll chart.

[00:02:28] Um, it, you know, there's a great, bigger conversation too, as far as. Deficiencies. So if we, if we look at levels and this is where we call those BiOptimizers biological optimization. Yeah. 80, 90% are deficient according to the RDA. And in our estimation, almost everybody is not optimal. Uh, because being deficient, I mean, we can talk about the RDA maybe another day, but

[00:02:57] Carl Lanore: [00:02:57] if you're a no, let's talk about it just for a second, because I [00:03:00] don't think people understand what the RDA is.

[00:03:01] I want to talk about the RDA for something simple, like vitamin a, the way they determined the RDA for vitamin E. They took pregnant rodents who you're already smiling because you know this, they took preg pregnant rodents and they deprived them of vitamin E until they reabsorbed their fetus. And then they gave them vitamin E just the right amount until they didn't reabsorb the fetus any longer.

[00:03:26] And they said, we'll change that into the human equivalent. And that's the RDA provide a mini. So the RDA is the minimum you need to survive, not thrive, not be healthy, but just not die. Is that an accurate assessment of what the RDA is?

[00:03:45] Matt Gallant: [00:03:45] It is. And if you factor, you know, for example, if you're working out, I mean, you're sweating minerals like crazy, right?

[00:03:53] I mean, if you're a person that sweats a lot, if you live in a warm environment and specifically with magnesium, [00:04:00] if you're stressed out, all of these things make you lose. Magnesium. So in terms of getting into an optimal level and when I can talk about what that feels like, because

[00:04:11] Carl Lanore: [00:04:11] the cool thing about

[00:04:12] Matt Gallant: [00:04:12] magnesium, you know, there's a lot of nutrients that there's science that backs it up.

[00:04:16] But with magnesium, you can actually feel the difference once you get to that optimal level. And when it's got a great story about this, you experience a few years ago. So maybe wait, you can share that.

[00:04:28] Carl Lanore: [00:04:28] Yeah. Share it with us, please.

[00:04:30] Wade Lightheart: [00:04:30] Yeah. So I'm like all us serial entrepreneurs. I, I decided I would bite off more than I could chew.

[00:04:36] And, um, in conjunction with the two companies that I currently run, I got involved in another one, which. The process quickly spiraled out of control, shall I say? And I found myself for about two plus years working 15 hours a day, not taking any time off. And, you know, at a certain point I start, you know, then I'm, you know, going on what I call nervous system burners using, [00:05:00] you know, caffeine and nootropics and all these kinds of cool biohacking things that we know, which.

[00:05:06] You know, w we're really was eventually, it's kind of like paying off your mortgage with a credit card. You can do it for a while, but eventually you run into debt. And basically what I did is I just fried my adrenals and my, um, my nervous system. And what that felt like is I was burnt out. Uh, I had a trigger temper.

[00:05:24] Um, I, I found emotionally I didn't have the emotional fortitude I wanted. My mental clarity memory was my short term memory was really sketchy. And, um, you know, just was having a lot of conflict in my life in a lot of different ways. Uh, so once I, you know, I talked to my naturopathic doctor, did a SpectraCell test, which by the way is a great way to, to determine what minerals you're deficient in and that sort of stuff.

[00:05:54] And they're like, dude, you're, you are. You know, your, your, your, your testosterone axis is bottomed out because of the [00:06:00] cortisol, your, your nervous systems. You gotta take some time off or whatever. And I said, well, I can't take time off. I did make some adjustments in my schedule. I said, but I need to up my performance.

[00:06:08] So I remembered a call from, uh, an event I had gone to with, uh, the late Charles Paula Quinn. Uh, for those, I don't know, strength sensei, you know, coached. I think gold medalist and I believe it's 27 different sports, not to mention a who's who of sport pro super pro athletes. And I remember him saying that one of his secret

[00:06:30] Carl Lanore: [00:06:30] successes

[00:06:32] Wade Lightheart: [00:06:32] is that he used multiple strains of magnesium.

[00:06:36] For handling the incredible stress load that these high performing athletes would do. Like literally the world's best Olympic athletes we're talking like, you know, next level. And I was like, ah, let me go back to my notes. So I went back to my notes and at that time, Matt and I had, you know, kind of been using magnesium.

[00:06:53] And, uh, so then I was looking at all these different types and he talked about the different types that worked with the different parts in the [00:07:00] body, someones for your heart, someone's from your brain, someone's for your muscles or so we're gonna often started buying all these singular magnesiums and different brands.

[00:07:08] And then we ended up with this giant counter. And Matt being kind of like, or chief optimizer, I would say, I'd say if Matt has a super skill, his ability to take a combination of things and good, he says, okay, we both are talking about this. I'm seeing the positive results, but I would try some magnesiums and I would get the runs really quick.

[00:07:29] And some magnesium seemed I have higher tolerance cause we were going through. Uh, orthomolecular nutrition, dosages, where you start at a small dose and you just keep dosing up in divided doses until you get the runs. That's kind of the foundational stuff that Linus, Pauling and Hawkins and Hoffer discovered back in the seventies and North end molecular nutrition.

[00:07:48] And we apply that principle of going from the minimum doses, going up to the maximum doses, staying at the maximum dosage and then tapering down. So we set all these, these different magnesiums and then [00:08:00] Matt came up with the brilliant idea, just like. Okay. Hey, let's put all these different magnesiums in one pill and the right ratios that seem to work with our initial testing.

[00:08:09] And that's when magnesium breakthrough was born. And we got that and it's, and you know, within a few months, uh, not only did I be able to kind of recover from the burnout and the emotional side and everything, but I kind of was able to hit a new level. In both my meditation, my professional performance, I was able to take more time off being more effective when I was doing like my, like my whole nervous system completely regenerated.

[00:08:36] Now that wasn't instantly, that took me a period of about six months, um, in order for me to curly completely correct that at a, at a high dosage. And what I mean by that was taking between three and five grams per day. I went up to five and then I just kept tapering down. And now I, I go between, um, one and a half and two grams a day, depending if it's a fasting day or a non [00:09:00] fasting day.

[00:09:00] Carl Lanore: [00:09:00] So I want to talk about magnesium just for a couple seconds. Just hold, hold on just one second, because then we're going to go through the list of the different forms of magnesium. So there was a study done with the Pima Indian who had genetically predisposed to be, to develop type two diabetes in Arizona.

[00:09:17] They took a group of Pima Indians that were type two diabetic. They had a great deal of body fat. They had trouble managing sugar. They were really needed to be on insulin and they supplemented them with magnesium. I don't know what form, but they spontaneously their blood sugar levels became manageable and insulin started being produced again.

[00:09:41] And it said that one of the magic. Things that magnesium does, which is evidence that we don't have enough magnesium in the population is that it helps to write the blood sugar conundrum. It's like a, it's like a cofactor that helps [00:10:00] insulin. It increases insulin sensitivity so that you don't become insulin resistant.

[00:10:05] It literally can reverse insulin resistance. Matt, I'm going to ask you this question. Do you think. From what you've read and what you've studied, that this could actually be at the rate, the, the basis of the widespread type two diabetes epidemic we have in the United States today.

[00:10:27] Matt Gallant: [00:10:27] I've always has to isolate anything til one thing, but for sure, it's a huge variable for sure.

[00:10:34] It's a big factor. Um, cause one of the things that a lot of people don't know about magnesium is the more stressed out you are, the more you excrete. So it's a vicious cycle. And of course, you know, let's just look at two 2020s, probably the most stressful year. Oh man. You know, baseline that the world's ever gone through.

[00:10:54] So, but just in general, just the modern lifestyle, uh, sleep deficiency, training, [00:11:00] working, going to work, coming back to work, kids, financial stress, all these things basically. Make you excrete more magnesium. So it's a vicious cycle because the less magnesium you have, the more stressed out, you feel more stressed out.

[00:11:15] You feel the more magnesium you excrete. And then I think that, yes, a lot of other issues such as insulin sensitivity can easily follow a, once you start bottoming out on magnesium because magnesium.

[00:11:32] Wade Lightheart: [00:11:32] The,

[00:11:32] Matt Gallant: [00:11:32] the challenge to had magnesium, as far as blood tests is it's not reliable because it goes into the tissue, right?

[00:11:40] And if you look at different types of magnesiums, this is why we use seven different types. They go to different parts of the body, some tend to. Go to the muscles. Some are more, heart-related some actually help the nervous system help some help the brain. So you really need a blend too, to hit all the notes, the [00:12:00] symphony, as we say.

[00:12:01] Wade Lightheart: [00:12:01] So, um, just to add to that, just to add to that, as far as some people like to get into the science of that particular point, cause I think find it pretty fascinating. Usually magnesium works with your enzymatic levels and particularly in phosphorylation on the receptor, in the key NASE receptor. That's where the insulin receptor kinase.

[00:12:19] And so what happens? You need to get the magnesium. It seems to be intracellularly. And I believe in reference to the studies that you were talking about or that I've seen, um, Torrid and biz glycenate seem to be the ones that have been used most common in regards to blood sugar. Uh, components as well as, uh, complications from macular, uh, macular vascularization degeneration, those complications from diabetes, which happens.

[00:12:44] So there's some relationship between magnesium, uh, kinase. And that's why I mentioned the SpectraCell test and the SpectraCell test. They spin your blood and they can test not only like what you're missing, but how well your [00:13:00] particular body uptakes. That those particular vitamins and minerals. And then you can do that.

[00:13:05] You can do a supplement, do a test six months later, and then you can kind of get your, your data specifically for you working with your professional.

[00:13:13] Carl Lanore: [00:13:13] Now there's another, there's another thing that seems to affect, uh, or is it is affected by magnesium levels. And this could have something to do with the insulin resistance, quite frankly, but a lot of people who are low in magnesium developed tinnitus.

[00:13:30] A ringing in their ears. And as soon as they get magnesium, re-established in their body, this tinnitus goes away. In fact, there were quote unquote tonight as supplements. And when you look at them, they're just, they're magnesium and a couple of other things. What what's, what's the relationship relationship between magnesium and ringing in the ears?

[00:13:48] Is it a vascular issue or is it a nerve issue?

[00:13:54] Matt Gallant: [00:13:54] I haven't researched tinnitus enough to know, but we do know that magnesium does [00:14:00] impact both the arterial system, as well as, uh, the brain in general. So, you know, dif dependent, which type of magnesium, so it could be, and we've had incredible testimonials from magnesium breakthrough on migraines, for example.

[00:14:16] So we know that it can certainly help with that. And if, if you get into the research, as far as. Heart and heart health. It's, it's one of the most powerful supplements you can take. So I had a research tonight. It's enough to comment specifically to that, but if I was to come up, cook up, a theory probably has to do with the blood vessels.

[00:14:35] Carl Lanore: [00:14:35] Do you know, do you know what they used to call a migraine in the 1920s, a hypoglycemic headache? A hypoglycemic headache, because they knew that when people develop migraines, if they were given sugar, the migraine quickly resolved itself and they determined. So we fast forward [00:15:00] today and we look at the things like the ketogenic diet.

[00:15:04] Um, we, we know that the ketogenic diet plays a role. Well, a lot of things that reestablish insulin sensitivity make migraines go away. Interesting. So there's your linkage. So let's talk about the different forms of magnesium, right? There's so many different forms and they, all, these are all naturally occurring.

[00:15:22] We'll go right through the list real quick. Right? So the first one we want to talk about, oops, sorry, is a magnesium cilium or key late. How do you pronounce it, Matt? I always pronounce it cheat late. I don't, I'm not an educated man.

[00:15:38] Matt Gallant: [00:15:38] Kayla Kayla. Okay.

[00:15:40] Carl Lanore: [00:15:40] What is the magnesium key late important for

[00:15:44] Matt Gallant: [00:15:44] we're going back to when I was in university and.

[00:15:48] Obsessed with the bodybuilding and stuff. I mean, they used to talk about a lot about magnesium for training. You know, it's very popular supplement general with strength athletes, and that's one of the big things that helps with it does [00:16:00] help with muscle building and recovery. A lot of people do see spending, especially when you're deficient, they'll see a boost in strife, maybe 10%.

[00:16:09] Um, I know that when I went from deficient to optimal, I did see a, uh, You know, a couple more reps per set. I would just say in general, across the board. So it does help quite a bit in the gym.

[00:16:24] Carl Lanore: [00:16:24] Okay.

[00:16:25] Wade Lightheart: [00:16:25] Kayla Kayla particular is with new nutrient neurotransmitter, a formation. That's what a lot of the research has kind of Def defined it.

[00:16:32] And I think that's where you're getting a lot of times when you fatigue an exercise, it's because you're just don't have the neurotransmitter regeneration to fire quickly. And also of course, magnesium overall is the relaxation phase of the muscles, that reverse aspect of the contraction, which is also the.

[00:16:50] The antagonistic muscle, if you're training, um, you know, has to relax. That's,

[00:16:56] Carl Lanore: [00:16:56] that's where the that's where the strike gains come. The [00:17:00] antagonistic muscles can elongate easier because it turns right that calcium channel. Exactly. Yes. Yes. That's a, that's a, that's really, that's one that people just don't get.

[00:17:10] You know, the heart is another one. Everybody thinks that when the heart is contracting. It's working and when it's expanding, it's relaxing. No, it's still working. It's just working in a different direction, you know? And, and in order for your heart to pump properly, magnesium has to inhibit the ones that were contracting earlier to let the ones that want to contract in the other direction to do their job.

[00:17:35] So, and that's probably one of the ways besides vascular relaxation and other ones we're talking about smooth muscle relaxation, big, big player is magnesium. What about magnesium citrate? This is a very popular one in supplements today who wants to take that one?

[00:17:53] Wade Lightheart: [00:17:53] Sure I can. Um, so citrate waste, which is interesting.

[00:17:58] Um, this is the one that seems to draw [00:18:00] the most water into the intestinal tract. So for people who are suffering from, um, poor, um, you know, Poor like inability to deprecate properly redo your number twos. I think that's a big thing is oftentimes there's drying inside the colon that causes issue in this magnet, magnesium citrate draws more in, and it's the one that is most concordance with people who get the runs.

[00:18:23] So if you're ha and the other thing is it's also with peristaltic contraction with smooth muscle tissue. And I think it's a combination of those things. So just in my own research, when I. Ups magnesium citrate. That that was the product that I would get the runs on, you know, about 1.5 grams. That's it.

[00:18:43] That's all I could tolerate. Um, so it's good to have a little bit of, I believe that I think it's beneficial to have a little bit of citrate, or if you're looking specifically for that area, just go all in on citrate T you got to flush the system, but the problem is over time, you can run into other issues.

[00:18:58] Um, but, uh, [00:19:00] that's where citrate is the best. We just put a little bit of a nurse. We want to, because we

[00:19:03] Carl Lanore: [00:19:03] want to know what are those other issues? Cause I know people who use a magnesium citrate drinks once or twice a year as a cleanse too much. There's no good. Huh?

[00:19:14] Wade Lightheart: [00:19:14] Well, anytime that you, um, kind of accelerate the drawing of water into the intestinal track, you gotta be conscientious of two things.

[00:19:21] Number one, electrolytes that you're taking in because you're going to dump a lot of minerals on that. And the other thing is, is dehydration. So I think if you look at the interstitial water scan, the electro interstitial water scan, you can actually check. For people wanting want to do the testing. You can go in there and it'll actually show the hydration levels of the different organs.

[00:19:42] I think dr. Carmichael out of, um, Colorado did a lot of research with athletes and stuff. And any time that you do anything that causes you to, you know, to dump a lot of water, uh, either through exercise, sweating or rectally through flushing, in a cleanse type thing, you need to be very [00:20:00] conscientious about that.

[00:20:00] And the other thing is, is it's good to know what your predisposition. For losing minerals is because in one of those cases, that's the, the negative side of, of like, you know, cleansings, but if someone's kind of sophisticated in their process, they shouldn't have any problem. And it's a great product to use that for

[00:20:17] Carl Lanore: [00:20:17] magnesium.

[00:20:18] Matt Gallant: [00:20:18] There's another key thing too, that I want to get into. And it's a really important, uh, Concept that you've already addressed a little bit. And that's the relationship between calcium and magnesium and, you know, one of the biggest health issues in general. And one of the things that kills people the most is just over calcification, whether it's, you know, heart disease, all kinds of things.

[00:20:40] Right. Um, and what we've believe is that the magnesium in ways got a great story when he was in Bali and I've experienced it as well. I can share that, but

[00:20:51] Wade Lightheart: [00:20:51] we believe that the magnesium can

[00:20:53] Matt Gallant: [00:20:53] help. Balance out the calcification in the body. And I think, you know, one of the benefits of citrate for [00:21:00] example, is the arterial stiffness.

[00:21:02] It does help with that. It's been shown clinically to do that. And, uh, I'll just share my story and we can share his. I was, uh, doing some extensive brain training and we were doing IVs and I asked, you know, load up the mag. So she loaded the mag and injected me with a few days. And it was really interesting.

[00:21:24] You would feel. A very warm sensation in the parts of the body that tend to calcify the most, including the genital cause actually felt pretty good. But, um, we've got a great story too, where it was in Bali doing a similar protocol.

[00:21:39] Wade Lightheart: [00:21:39] Yeah. So, um, Once I recognized that I was, you know, and I went on the, I would call it the quest for the optimal magnesium and experimented with all these different types I contracted or contracted a naturopathic doctor who was actually had a special forces background and had experienced a, using [00:22:00] magnesium to help guys deal with the stress of PTSD.

[00:22:02] And he's like, yeah, I bring the guys in and we do a lot of magnesium, uh, through interventionists. Uh, loading. And so you, we, we would go for these sessions and he started out with a very small amount, you know, three grams, four grams, five grams, and then we kind of worked their way up to 20 grams. Uh, that's kind of an, a magnesium sulfate solution that you're, and please don't.

[00:22:26] Randomly do this stuff. Like you need to have a professional, you can really mess yourself up on that. And there's a variance in tolerance, but as we took it up over that 10 grams zone, what would happen is I would actually get burning sensations where I had old injuries where calcium deposits like in the shoulders from, you know, bench pressing and stuff as a, you know, crazy when I was younger also I'd feel burning sensations really.

[00:22:50] Right in my brain where I probably had some calcium deposits, you could actually feel it. And each session that I would do, I would get burning in different areas of the body. And I felt [00:23:00] for the people don't know it's, it's about a two to one ratio of calcium to magnesium. And when you don't have enough magnesium.

[00:23:06] What happens is you, you, you will start dumping calcium, which is contributes to osteoporosis, but when you start pumping a lot of magnesium in, into the system, your uptake of calcium will start to change. So it was literally burning out the calcium mag components in one part of the tissue to redistribute it somewhere else.

[00:23:25] Carl Lanore: [00:23:25] That's fascinating. That really is. And, and for those of you listening, thinking, wait a minute, 10 grams of magnesium, isn't that harmful to your kidneys? Exactly the opposite. So depriving yourself of minerals causes the kidneys to work harder, to create a blockade, to keep too many minerals from exiting the body so that you don't end up with electrolytes.

[00:23:50] Imbalances, but when you have a lot, in fact, people find this fascinating. Do you know what the simplest way to keep chronic kidney [00:24:00] disease from progressing it's sodium chloride or sodium bicarbonate? Every day now that's counter intuitive. They wait a minute. Your kidneys are failing. Why would you want more sodium?

[00:24:09] Because the kidneys work hardest when you deprive your body of minerals. When they've got a lot of minerals, you kidneys go, Oh man, we got so much coming in just to let it all go out in the urine. Don't worry about it. We don't have to work, just open the flood Gates. So a lot of people will hear this and they will do that.

[00:24:25] That sounds crazy. You destroy your kidneys, you destroy your kidneys by not getting enough. Calcium sodium magnesium, potassium phosphorus, and the list goes on and on by carbon it and so on and so forth. Let's hit this one and then we'll take a first break. The next one is magnesium glycinate. Now I know magnesium glycinate.

[00:24:47] Is this the same thing or what's the BIS glycinate form?

[00:24:51] Matt Gallant: [00:24:51] It's essentially the same thing. Um, you know, and it's a really, really good one for sleep. So magnesium is involved in [00:25:00] the creation of serotonin

[00:25:03] Wade Lightheart: [00:25:03] and.

[00:25:04] Matt Gallant: [00:25:04] Serotonin is critical for melatonin. So what I do and, uh, w you know, we'd probably had more testimonials and positive reviews on sleep improvement for magnesium breakthrough than anything else.

[00:25:16] Uh, you take three caps, you know, 60 to 90 minutes before you want to feel tired. Um, it just kicks everything and I take it.

[00:25:25] Carl Lanore: [00:25:25] I take it before bed.

[00:25:26] Matt Gallant: [00:25:26] Yeah. And again,

[00:25:28] Wade Lightheart: [00:25:28] ideally,

[00:25:28] Matt Gallant: [00:25:28] ideally about an hour or 90 minutes before said that you get a little bit of serotonin production, which then will get the melatonin production of prime.

[00:25:38] So timing wise, that's, that's about ideal, but it's great for sleep and also seems to help with, with stomach acid in general. So it could maybe, I don't know the exact mechanism, but it is probably helping the body produce more hydrochloric acid.

[00:25:56] Carl Lanore: [00:25:56] Interesting. Mmm, interestingly [00:26:00] enough, I did a show recently.

[00:26:01] I discovered something that gets rid of GERD. Mmm. And it's called a prokinetic agent. So you mentioned peristalsis a moment ago and the importance of, of magnesium in the process of peristalsis. Well, a lot of people who suffer from GERD actually are suffering from. GERD secondarily to poor digestive motility.

[00:26:27] The food is just languishing in the gut and it's creating gas and it's blowing the esophageal sphincter open and acids coming up. And so the reality is to re stimulate peristalsis. And so I had a guy who literally was like, he was going to die someday. He was vomiting up two to three hours after every meal.

[00:26:48] And I said, take a hundred micrograms of , which is a well known, uh, a prokinetic agent. It also stimulates some hunger. If you take too much, it stimulates hunger. And [00:27:00] he messaged me that day. He said, I just held down my first breakfast and weeks, and then he's been doing it. And I actually had him on the show.

[00:27:08] His name is Joe Christiana. And he said, I can't believe it. I'm eating. And I'm not vomiting after every meal. Well, the reason I tell that whole long drawn out story is that magnesium seems to play a role in the ability for peristalsis to take effect, which means it's going to affect. Digestive motility.

[00:27:27] That may be why people who use it go, my GERD went away. It may not be from the buffering effect of the magnesium, but instead the stimulatory effect as a prokinetic agent. Think about that. What do you think.

[00:27:42] Matt Gallant: [00:27:42] That's a good theory. I like it. Okay.

[00:27:43] Wade Lightheart: [00:27:43] Yeah. I think, I think there's three areas, particularly.

[00:27:46] That's one of the areas in motility and sometimes that's also related to people that may have hiatal hernias that are pushing up on the stomach. So the food's actually pushing up into the lung cavity and creating [00:28:00] issues. That's the other areas, which is the same thing. It's in other words, the food's not going through the intestinal tract properly or it's.

[00:28:06] The contraction stuff. I think the other thing is a low hydrochloric acid. So those three things are usually few address. All of those in conjunction chances are you're going to be able to resolve your, um, acid reflux issue.

[00:28:20] Carl Lanore: [00:28:20] All right, let's do this. Let's take a quick commercial break. When we come back, we've got more types of magnesium we're going to cover, and I'll also tell you how you can get mag breakthrough magnesium breakthrough at a super, almost 40% off.

[00:28:32] Stay tuned. We'll be right back. Superhuman channel.

[00:28:42] welcome back.

[00:28:47] We're talking today with Matt Golan and Wade. Lightheart from bioptimizers.com. We're talking about their magnesium product called mag magnesium breakthrough. You can get it by going to the website, mag [00:29:00] breakthrough.com. Slash SHR used code SHR 10, and you can save up to 32% off and they give a one year, 365 day money back guarantee.

[00:29:10] If you're not completely satisfied, send what you didn't use back. It doesn't get any better than that few people today. In the supplement industry, stand behind your satisfaction in their product. They're very happy to get that one sale. And if you go away pissed off it's okay. We got that money, but these guys don't do that because they're in it to help people by the way, stay tuned later in the show at the top of the hour.

[00:29:36] I'm going to talk about, this is critical thinking. One-on-one, I've been doing more and more of this. I want people to be critical thinkers, an unintended benefit of weightlifting that helps you age better. It's nothing that you've ever thought about. I promise you. So stay tuned for later in the show about that.

[00:29:52] So the next one we want to talk about is a magnesium Torat and we actually have, um, a listener, [00:30:00] a viewer in the audience that, uh, Posted this a little bit earlier. Let's see if I can find it real quick. Yeah. Oh no, no, no. Yeah. Yeah. Magnesium Tori. I can't see his name because of the security settings of your account will not pass through to our platform.

[00:30:17] So if you want to post your name, I'll put that up to magnesium. Taurine has been a game changer for me. I was having a fit issues. Everybody in the country has a Fitbit issues today. Could it be magnesium who knows, uh, had to get an ablation. I started adding a mag Tori into my diet, along with potassium.

[00:30:36] And it helped a ton talk about magnesium toroid guys.

[00:30:41] Wade Lightheart: [00:30:41] Yeah. So, um, magnesium Toray is the one that's probably the most, uh, researched or one of the most research around cognitive function. So the Toray kind of works very similar to Turin, which activates Gabba, which is gamma amino butyric acid. [00:31:00] And that's a, an impulse that blocks, like it's a neurotransmitter that blocks the impulses between nerve cells.

[00:31:06] So one of the things that I used to do is I used to go to this place, uh, in Vancouver, where I would drink, uh, various types of rare teas from all around the world. This guy had a great expert in one of the. Favorites was the GABAA T and the Gabba T kind of creates this kind of calm euphoric center. And of course what's with all our dopamine driven activities today with blue light and things like that, it's, it's demonstrated that Toray can really help with brain derived neurotrophic factor as well as stimulate, you know, wasting that's stimulating growth and growth in the hippocampus.

[00:31:43] It's also seems to be great in migraines, neurodegenerative disorders. Um, so this one to me was the one that I think when I took it, I also noticed a bump up with memory. Uh, cause when I went through my challenge, I was losing my short term memory. [00:32:00] So that in combination with lion's mane was the two things that I felt had the most impact on memory.

[00:32:05] And I do believe it's because of this neuro transmitter formation. The ironic thing is too. We get a lot of testimonials on this one. Um, and the research says that for people that have PMs. So obviously I don't have PMs, but we have a lot of female testimonials coming in about the reduction of the challenges with PMs.

[00:32:25] So oftentimes that's a magnesium issue in the, in the research they use magnesium tore rate. Um, for that,

[00:32:33] Carl Lanore: [00:32:33] Matt, you want to add anything to that?

[00:32:38] Matt Gallant: [00:32:38] No, that was pretty thorough. Okay.

[00:32:40] Carl Lanore: [00:32:40] So the next one in the list is magnesium may late. Why? Why is this one important?

[00:32:50] Matt Gallant: [00:32:50] Well, one of the, you know, when I was formulating this product, I read, I think 130 research papers. And I think probably surprised, I knew a lot of [00:33:00] the benefits of mag for I dove into the weeds. But the thing I was surprised to learn was the research around depression. Um, there, there was a lot of research that

[00:33:10] Carl Lanore: [00:33:10] showed that.

[00:33:13] Matt Gallant: [00:33:13] It was as effective as antidepressants for depression. I mean, we're not making any claims. It's just what the research showed. So this is one of the magnesiums has been shown to help with that quite a bit, as well as chronic pain. And again, specifically migraines in the research. So when the, when we were getting these testimonials, as far as, uh, removing migraines, this is probably the key magnesium that's helping with that.

[00:33:40] Interesting.

[00:33:41] Carl Lanore: [00:33:41] Wade. Do you have anything to, uh, yeah. Wait. Yeah. Anything to add to that?

[00:33:46] Wade Lightheart: [00:33:46] No, I think he's got that one covered. So I do know that the enzyme like this is the one also too. Magnesium is a control with all the different enzyme formulations in the vice versa, over 300 different enzymatic [00:34:00] relationships.

[00:34:00] That require magnesium. And so of course, everybody knows us as one of the top enzyme companies. And so it's, it's another way to enhance those enzymatic transactions in your body, which are essentially catalytic, you know, converting one thing to other thing, something else, or speeding up those conversions.

[00:34:18] Carl Lanore: [00:34:18] So Jeff Clifton says, I love Mac breakthrough. I just ordered three bottles through SHR. I'm curious as to why magnesium oxide is included. I've read something about poor absorption. I have, I've heard the same thing that magnesium oxide is a inferior form. Why is it in there?

[00:34:37] Matt Gallant: [00:34:37] Yeah, that was one of the reasons and I get, we formulated it to minimize the flushing.

[00:34:43] So oxide is one of those ones that you can take and use for, for flushing effects. Uh, so that's the main reasons we wanted something that people could go on a high dose and not get disaster

[00:34:55] Carl Lanore: [00:34:55] pants. So this one I'm very familiar with. In [00:35:00] fact, I've experimented with magnesium, L three and eight and microdose LSD taking a magnesium L three and eight, along with micro dosing and amplifies the effect dramatically.

[00:35:12] I was able to cut my micro dose in half when I took it with L three and eight, I found that fascinating. Um, this is the, this is the, the new kid on the block. Isn't it? This is the one that everybody loves because it's supposed to improve short term memory and have all these, uh, nootropic effects, right?

[00:35:32] Wade Lightheart: [00:35:32] Yes, that's correct. Um, and there's interesting. There's different types of  308 out there as well. So there's the kind of research is adapting and changing all the time and we're actually working on. Kind of the newest version of all of that, which is involved, you know, so there's some potentials with some lipids and things like that.

[00:35:50] So it's a fascinating part, but that definitely it's a, it's one of the more unique or interesting components of the product family.

[00:35:58] Carl Lanore: [00:35:58] Dr. Chad Decker says he [00:36:00] uses it for sleep. I would have that that's counterintuitive. I would think that's something that improves memory, uh, has maybe a more of an energizing effect to the brain.

[00:36:10] Is it, is it good for sleep, Matt?

[00:36:14] Matt Gallant: [00:36:14] I think all magnesiums are good for sleep. I mean, magnesium, it calms the nervous system. Um, there's a story that had shared earlier. That's a lighter version of Wade's. I got to the point again, due to magnesium deficiency and stress where I literally couldn't drink coffee.

[00:36:31] I would drink

[00:36:32] Carl Lanore: [00:36:32] a cup of

[00:36:32] Matt Gallant: [00:36:32] coffee and almost instantly feel horrible. I mean, I just used the adjective frazzle to describe it. I just felt. No. My nervous system was, uh, extremely agitated by just really interesting research on magnesium and the myelin sheet. In my opinion, this is just a theory, but

[00:36:51] Carl Lanore: [00:36:51] when your myelin sheet.

[00:36:53] Matt Gallant: [00:36:53] It gets raw. That's that frazzled state it's you go right into fight or flight and just becomes your default mode. So anyways, I couldn't [00:37:00] drink coffee anymore. Um, heard the Paula Quinn protocol that I heard Mercola talk about using magnesium to help, uh, fight EMF issues because the EMF opens up calcium channels.

[00:37:13] And then I had another guy. Who is Scott very deep down the spiritual rabbit hole. And you know, when you have a lot of gamma brainwaves, for an example, it utilizes a tremendous amount of, uh, magnesium. And in our opinion, because you're really activating a nervous system at a very intense level as long story short, when I started, uh, loading up on the magnesium after

[00:37:39] Carl Lanore: [00:37:39] about.

[00:37:40] Matt Gallant: [00:37:40] 30 45 days. I felt normal again and not been able to drink coffee. No problem. Since I've been using the proper dose. Interesting, very, very interesting,

[00:37:52] Carl Lanore: [00:37:52] um,

[00:37:53] Matt Gallant: [00:37:53] nervous system down in general, including a , which I've mega dose, especially [00:38:00] during brain training. Cause those help with your Genesis, your plasticity.

[00:38:04] So I've never had an issue with sleep. It's always helped.

[00:38:08] Carl Lanore: [00:38:08] So, uh, and, and Jeff Clifton pointed out that it seems to increase BDNF and anything that increases BDNF is good because it keeps your breath, your brain plastic, it keeps your brain growing instead of shrinking. And there's a lot of things that, I mean, exercise increases BDNF and, and those are all good things.

[00:38:25] And the, and then the last one in the list is one that I'm not familiar with. And that is magnesium. Orotate why this one, what, what what's, what's its contribution to this mix.

[00:38:36] Wade Lightheart: [00:38:36] Yeah, well, magnesium orotate is, um, seems to be uptaken better by than some other magnesiums. Um, so again, it's got all kinds of the regular components of, you know, vasomotor tone, blood pressure, uh, immune system, bone integrity, blood glucose, all that sort of stuff.

[00:38:53] So this is kind of one of the ones that are seemingly being able to be uptake better than [00:39:00] other uh magnesiums for some people who may have challenges and going back again, this is. You know, I really encourage people to use that SpectraCell test, um, to, to determine how well you actually absorb and utilize, uh, the various minerals that you take.

[00:39:17] But that's the biggest combination. And again, it just seems to be universally beneficial with the research. Cause now a lot of guys on the research are using this particular, uh, this particular magnesium.

[00:39:28] Carl Lanore: [00:39:28] So all of these have,

[00:39:29] Matt Gallant: [00:39:29] I've got pretty deep.

[00:39:30] Carl Lanore: [00:39:30] I'm sorry. Good,

[00:39:31] Matt Gallant: [00:39:31] good. No, I just want to talk about just the different types of, uh, for all types of minerals.

[00:39:37] Um, you know, I, I'm kind of one of the main guys doing the research and I. You know, everything seems to indicate that orotate just gets utilized better on a cellular level. Um, so for example, I just recently switched my sink to an orotate version and I definitely experiencing affects that. And I've been using zinc for years, but [00:40:00] I, uh, definitely experienced some positive benefits that I've never experienced with XIX before, specifically around, uh, erection quality, for example.

[00:40:08] So I just think more taste in general. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, I'm just bullish, you know, we're really bullish on the irritates, but a couple of notes too. Yeah. We combined the seven mags, but we didn't stop there. Uh, we've added the cofactors, which help absorption even more and we didn't stop there. We work with one of the preeminent.

[00:40:32] Moto atomic experts in the world. He's been in that world for a long, long time. For those of you that don't know Moto Atomics, they are a kind of

[00:40:41] Carl Lanore: [00:40:41] single, single

[00:40:44] Matt Gallant: [00:40:44] cell. Elements, including silver platinum gold that the body can absorb. I'm sorry, we're not taking, you know, jewelry and melting it down or pottering it up.

[00:40:55] These are very specific, uh, types of minerals and we've tested with, or [00:41:00] without the motto, Atomics help. And it does produce a different effect. You, you feel the difference and it makes sense because again, in the body, Everything works as a symphony. You know, when you have the cofactors involved in any metabolic function, it's going to work better.

[00:41:20] A lot of times things fall apart in the body because you don't have all the co factors. So weight is also been a huge fan of motto tonics for a long time. So maybe you can add a couple of notes on that.

[00:41:31] Wade Lightheart: [00:41:31] Yeah. So basically for people don't know, um, I, we use a humic fulvic acid, which is a NexTraq of plant matter.

[00:41:37] That's kind of condensed into a shale tissue, but hasn't lost its organic diff uh, Properties. And so we're generally designed to absorb mineral soup, either consuming plants that have the minerals or animals that have that the minerals and with humic fulvic, maintaining that kind of organic matter, that was laid down a long time ago, as well as not using a chemical extraction process in order to get that a [00:42:00] lot of human folds will use chemical extraction.

[00:42:02] So this allows us to deliver the kind of the full spectrum of. Trace minerals. There's about 84 different trace minerals, which there's no known RDA components for that. It's kind of a, kind of an omitted part, which is one of my pet peeves around our description of food nowadays and what we require. And if these elements are in the body, Um, they're, they're doing something even if we might not be a known in awareness, but you know, like Matt says, when you take it with versus not, you can feel the difference.

[00:42:33] And so therefore I always, they always want it as much as research heavy as you want to be. I always default back to being alert and attuned to your biofeedback. When you take anything. I said, I think the, our own observational components are. Awesome. And correlating that with the data testing points that you do makes it even better.

[00:42:54] Carl Lanore: [00:42:54] I want to mention at this moment, because we're talking about some of these other cofactors, there there's nothing synthetic [00:43:00] in this product at all. Nope, no additives, no preservatives. Uh, you should take it on an empty stomach. Correct?

[00:43:11] Matt Gallant: [00:43:11] Yeah, you can take any of the war. Um, cause when I do a lot of fast thing, what will take magnesium? Fascinating. Um, it, it absorbs while we food. So either way, um, it works and about our, just a quick note on the filler too. So a little, a little behind the scenes story. Um, our, our, our manufacturer, the person that kind of puts us together called us and said, uh, you know, we'd like to use a filler.

[00:43:39] And cause it's, it's slowing down the process and blah, blah, blah. And he's like, we just refuse to use filters. We don't care what we have to do to make it work. We just. You know, we're, we're not going to do that. So little story there. Cool.

[00:43:55] Carl Lanore: [00:43:55] Uh, and so, uh, for those listening to the show, mag [00:44:00] breakthrough.com/s H R code S H R 10.

[00:44:03] We'll get you up to 32% off and a 365 day money back guarantee. We have a question from someone, I believe that's in Europe. Chrissy's Fox says, what about magnesium glide, glycerol, phosphate. Guyville bag used in Europe. I've been using a powder form of this almost a year. Have you, are you familiar with this?

[00:44:29] No, it's

[00:44:30] Matt Gallant: [00:44:30] just a naturally,

[00:44:32] Carl Lanore: [00:44:32] well, and so is this a naturally occurring? Cause I know all of the forms that you've used are naturally occurring. Which is going to lead me to my last question. And then we're going to take a break and then I have some selfish things I want to ask you. These are all naturally occurring.

[00:44:47] Why can't I just get them all from food?

[00:44:51] Matt Gallant: [00:44:51] Great question. And I'll cue up Wade here cause it has to do with farming. And you've got a great story on that.

[00:44:57] Wade Lightheart: [00:44:57] So I have this, uh, you know, I'm [00:45:00] on a mission to redefine our definition of food. Cause we, you know, if you look at the food production and distribution, Um, model that we've adapted over the last hundred and particularly accelerated over the, since world war II, um, we've changed the composition of our soil.

[00:45:15] We've contained, we've added a whole host of herbicides, pesticides, and fungicides genetic modification. We've dropped protein content in food, you know, by anywhere from 70 to 80%, which drops enzyme levels, which. These are critical and absorbing minerals out of the soil. And so in North America particularly were extremely deficient.

[00:45:37] In fact, I was, I had a, uh, a biodynamic organic farmer who has, it has a place out in New Jersey on my podcast, not that long ago. And she was talking about that right now. All of the nutritional scientists. Feel that they've got about 60 more seasons left before there's nothing left in the soil. And so she's on a mission to kind of [00:46:00] reconstitute the soil and teach farmers.

[00:46:01] But unfortunately, most of the food that we get is these giant commercial products that you're just using a variety of chemicals to accelerate it. And even if they're on an organic farm, if they're not conscientiously redeploying, Uh, you know, reconditioning the soil to get that mineral content. It's almost impossible.

[00:46:20] So the chances that you are getting, you know, the polyphenols, the vitamins, the minerals, the naturally occurring components in your, in your food that you're getting not to mention the loss and shelf, life and transportation, et cetera, is pretty much zero. Um, and that's, if you're eating the perfect diet and I'm going to lock down a

[00:46:41] Carl Lanore: [00:46:41] lot of it, and a lot of it, most of us are intermittent fasting and we're having two meals a day.

[00:46:46] There's no way you got to get all the magnesium and potassium and everything else that you need to get.

[00:46:52] Wade Lightheart: [00:46:52] Yeah. And again, go back. I mean, if anybody wants to challenge us, also need to do is go do a SpectraCell test. You do that. You're going to get a clear uptake [00:47:00] about just how deficient you are on the RDA level, let alone even talking, uh, optimization.

[00:47:05] And so. I hope that we redefine what food is. And I hope that we get more and more information about to farmers about how to recondition our, our products or crops and everything. Cause it's a massive issue that I think is depleting the population on levels that we can't imagine. Just to give you an example.

[00:47:22] 1900 in the early 19 hundreds, they added iodine to the food supply because they realized there is a deficiency across North America. And they, there was a development of goiter, which is a kind of a condition without iodine. Well, here is the unexpected benefit when they added iodine to the diet, they seen an overall average IQ increase by 15 points across the board.

[00:47:49] Just sit with that for a second. And we think of when we kind of see people kind of going around in this kind of zombie phase or not seeing what's going on or having trouble concentrating or brain [00:48:00] fog or cognitive things, or being able to focus or manage their emotions. I think all of this stems from just bad nutrition and bad food products, even if you're spending a ton of money.

[00:48:12] On the best organics that you can. I mean, I think it's, it's become so prevalent that we think it's normal.

[00:48:19] Carl Lanore: [00:48:19] And, and on that note, tangentially I had died or I had died is a halogen like bromide, which they use in bread that displaces iodine, but more importantly fluoride, which they fluoridate water. And there's been a direct correlation to.

[00:48:37] Municipalities that have fluoridated water and a drop in IQ in children. So, I mean, you know, it, we just think we're so much smarter than nature that we can just eat crap, sleep like crap, not move and we'll be fine. I mean, it's just it, you know, it's insanity today. Chrissy's Fox [00:49:00] talks about biodynamic agriculture.

[00:49:01] We're going to take a break and Jeff Clifton stay with me because your question is kinda my question to, uh, we'll be right back for those of you listening. If you want to take advantage of an amazing offer and start using a magnesium product that will actually. Help you go to mag breakthrough.com/shr use code SHR 10.

[00:49:23] Pick one of the packages and save up to 32% off. It's a great product. I use it every night with three grams of glycine. And a baby aspirin. And then my, my peptide injection that I put together before sleep. And I definitely noticed a change in my sleep when I started using it. There's no doubt in my mind about it.

[00:49:40] Stay tuned. We'll be right back.

[00:49:52] okay. We have a couple of questions. What happened?

[00:49:58] We lost weight. Uh, [00:50:00] let's, let's answer this question first, before we get onto the wrap up here. So Brian Cunningham in summary says, is there really that much difference in magnesium's perhaps mag three and eight has shown better for some issues because it's only the only one that was studied for those issues.

[00:50:15] What do you think?

[00:50:19] Matt Gallant: [00:50:19] Well, again, when I, when I drove into the research, um, specific mags are showing specific. So to me, it's, it's, you know, just a simple induction deduction. That's the pattern is there. Um, so yeah, and we know it goes to different tissues. So again, I mean, I've, you know, everybody is free to look at the research and make their own conclusions, but everything seems to indicate that that's the case.

[00:50:45] Well, and things like all three are innate. We know that specifically the brain, that's a completely different type of mag producing a completely different type of effect.

[00:50:55] Carl Lanore: [00:50:55] And we also know that these are all naturally occurring, which means we evolved under their influence. [00:51:00] And then they're taking just magnesium.

[00:51:02] This form of magnesium only is counter to what we evolved access to all of these and abundance of all of these would seem to be prudent, uh, regardless, just because, like I said, we've, we've evolved under the influence of all of them.

[00:51:20] Matt Gallant: [00:51:20] Yeah.

[00:51:21] Wade Lightheart: [00:51:21] Yeah. I think also char Charles Paula Quentin, who I think was the, was the breakthrough innovator in regard to listen for those who don't know who Charles was. He used to study other languages because he found that they were kind of cultural biases in how people researched as well as also the, the availability of different nutrition products.

[00:51:42] He was one of the first people to turn us onto the idea of the different magnesiums taken by different parts of body. And that was one of his secret sauces

[00:51:50] Carl Lanore: [00:51:50] too. Yeah, we lost Wade. We had some other, yeah. We had some connectivity prop problems there. Um, so

[00:51:58] Matt Gallant: [00:51:58] yeah, just to wrap up what he was saying. [00:52:00] Yeah, yeah.

[00:52:01] Paul Paula Quinn, uh, really kind of start us on this journey. And then we continue researching other mags like orotate and so on and spelt, uh, built a better mouse trap. So,

[00:52:13] Carl Lanore: [00:52:13] so let's do this, let's answer this question, which is going to lead me to my selfish question. He says, Jeff cliff, this is I'm only taking two caps, one twice a day, spread out with meals.

[00:52:24] Should I keep bumping it up until disaster pants happen

[00:52:29] Wade Lightheart: [00:52:29] right away? That's typically the go back to the orthomolecular model friction. That is the, what they call at Birkin, the GI barrier. So what I do is the dosages up throughout the day, as opposed to taking one shot. So the process that I is prudent.

[00:52:51] Least a half gram say over three divided doses some day for one and a half. That's usually pretty terrible by people, especially in divided [00:53:00] dosages. Then you add, uh, one grant, like, uh, one gram per day. Maybe you'll take a, on an extra cap. Like, so if you're doing two caps in the morning, two calves in the afternoon, two calves and even take an extra cap.

[00:53:14] At, uh, in the morning and an extra crap in the afternoon, the next day, if you, if you didn't get a tolerance, you would add, you know, maybe two caps in the morning. One cap stay with the same dosage in the second one and then add to the recaps in the afternoon. So just keep going up by a half gram to a gram a day.

[00:53:31] When you hit Paul Lawrence, you then titrate down to a half gram to a gram below that. Now what's interesting when you continue on with that

[00:53:43] Carl Lanore: [00:53:43] dosage.

[00:53:44] Wade Lightheart: [00:53:44] Generally over time what'll happen is you'll be able to, to bring it back on again. Um, in order to when you hit all the rinse again. So for example, with vitamin C.

[00:53:55] It's another example of most research around pay will go up to [00:54:00] maybe 10, 15, 20 grams. And then as they stay at that kind of high dosage over time, that high dosage will begin to drop down and down as your body builds up your supplies, we actually explained this in our course, um, in the 12 weeks to double your energy course, and I call it the bucket theory of nutrition.

[00:54:17] And of course you can ratchet it up or wrapped it down based on your burn rate of lifestyle.

[00:54:22] Carl Lanore: [00:54:22] Well, you actually just answered my question. So, so let's say I am in fact, magnesium deficient, even though I'm taking some magnesium, some, uh, but I, I very high stress lifestyle. I sweat a lot. Um, should I start out with like three caps, three times a day and slowly just go up from there until I feel some GI distress.

[00:54:52] Wade Lightheart: [00:54:52] Yeah. I mean, for me, I, I liked, I liked the two caps three times a day to start with, cause that's about 1.5 grams and that's, that's usually [00:55:00] tolerable three crabs. Sometimes too much. Some people hang on, I'll just go to two, two and, you know, add a cap at a cap, uh, as you increased up and then, you know, use monitor for an individual.

[00:55:13] Cause it's very sick. Can't leave from individual to individual. Yeah. And how well person updates and how efficient they

[00:55:20] Carl Lanore: [00:55:20] are. So if this is

[00:55:22] Matt Gallant: [00:55:22] just a jump into,

[00:55:24] Carl Lanore: [00:55:24] please, I'm sorry.

[00:55:26] Matt Gallant: [00:55:26] I'll just wrap up with this, which is experientially. Uh, what I experienced as I really loaded my body over 60 days on the mag, I literally hit a point where I was just calm.

[00:55:41] Like I've never been before, not like, okay, I meditated now I'm calm. It was just baseline. So I thought that was a really good sign. Again, it goes back to the nervous system. Um, and w we're big believers in managing your nervous system, because again, most of us are doing a lot of sympathetic activities on the [00:56:00] magnesium has just been incredible to counterbalance the, again, the intensity of life, the stresses, the exercise, all of that stuff.

[00:56:07] So that is one thing to look at just how calm is your baseline. And I think once you're saturated, you'll, you'll feel pretty calm. So it's one thing to look out for.

[00:56:19] Carl Lanore: [00:56:19] So the product is called magnesium breakthrough. If you go to the website, mag breakthrough.com/shr use code SHR 10, you can save up to 32% off,

[00:56:32] Matt Gallant: [00:56:32] uh,

[00:56:32] Carl Lanore: [00:56:32] and it has a 365 day money back guarantee.

[00:56:35] If you don't like it, send it back. And the reality is that this is a, this is not necessarily a sexy. Supplement, you know, it's not like an Andrew or something like that, but the reality is that it will affect you. It it'll affect your performance, your recovery, your sleep, your overall health, your nervous system, which you cannot see while it's eroding.

[00:56:56] Uh, inside of you. Uh, and, and, and we know, I [00:57:00] mean, the information is coming from so many different points now that people are very, very deficient in magnesium way too much sodium way, too much calcium, not enough potassium and not enough magnesium. And it's leading to a lot of problems in today's society.

[00:57:14] Guys. I want to thank you so much for being on the show. It's fascinating. I love the product. I take it before bed every night. It definitely helps my sleep. There's no doubt in my mind, when I started taking it, I started to see deeper. Longer periods of deep sleep at the beginning of the night. Uh, and it makes me sleepy when I take it.

[00:57:31] I literally like after I take it about 20 minutes later, I start to feel like, okay, I'm ready to go to sleep. And I turned the book off or the light off or whatever, and I just roll over and I go to sleep and I sleep well now I want to thank you for that. And thanks for being a big supporters of the show also.

[00:57:50] Matt Gallant: [00:57:50] Great being here. Thanks Carl.

[00:57:51] Carl Lanore: [00:57:51] Okay guys, you have a good weekend. We're going to do your Karl. Thanks. Thank you. Wait, we're going to take our last commercial break. And when we come back, I'm going to try to provoke you into thinking [00:58:00] about something that you haven't thought about that you're gaining from your resistance and weight training.

[00:58:06] That's actually going to improve your ability to age. And we're going to talk about Alice static load. When we come back, stay tuned, you're listening to super human radio. For human

[00:58:18] Matt Gallant: [00:58:18] channel

[00:58:19] evolution just got kicked up a notch.

[00:58:27] I think our world is in trouble because we don't have enough people who are critical thinkers any longer. And so. I'm a huge fan of critical thinking. And I'm have a lot of respect for other people who are critical thinkers. It's not something I only have. It's hopefully more and more people will develop it, but critical thinking takes exercise.

[00:58:45] It takes using your brain in different ways than most people do today. So I want to talk to you about weightlifting. I received an email from a fellow that I'm going to help out. Um, he said that his wife [00:59:00] refuses to lift weights. She's got osteoporosis osteopenia. And could I send him some studies that show that weightlifting improves those conditions in women?

[00:59:12] And I can, I'll take the time to find that. I mean, he could, he could go to Google scholar or pub med and find them. But it's easier to ask me, I guess, and I'll help them out. That's not a problem. And it made me start thinking about weightlifting in general. And then this morning, you know, I wake up with my normal aches and pains that I live with.

[00:59:32] I'm 62 years old. Now I've used my body in ways that most people don't or haven't and I thought about it. So there were some days where I literally. Muscle through the day. We all know this term, right? You're handling a weight that's way heavier than you feel like you can, but you muscle through it. You handle the weight, you force the weight to do what [01:00:00] you want it to do.

[01:00:01] It's strenuous, it's uncomfortable. Sometimes it's painful. You know, if you're squatting and you've got to a bar and what's, what's the bar an inch and a half. And you've got significant weight on it. Four, five, eight, five, six, 700 pounds on it. It feels like a, it feels like a cheese cutter on your traps.

[01:00:20] And, uh, usually you get a callus. I did. I had a callus in that one spot of my, my, my trap, where my traps and my shoulders kind of met together and a weightlifting. Requires that you embrace pain? I don't mean bad pain. Right? Not saying, Hey, break my leg. Oh, I love that. But there's a certain requirement if you're going to lift weights and I mean, really lift weights, not like the people who go to the gym and they push the same weight around for 20 years.

[01:00:52] But if you're a person. One understands the value of progressive overload. Then you're always challenging your body to do more, more [01:01:00] reps, more weight, new movements, new movements are uncomfortable. I remember the first time I dead lifted, it was so freaking uncomfortable. If you would have told me that day that Jeff Rui taught me how to deadlift that I would fall in love with that movement.

[01:01:13] I'd say you're frigging crazy. I scraped my shins up. It was awkward. Grabbing the bar because I have long femurs. I have long legs getting down in that position where I was actually sitting back on my heels and pulling that weight up. The first time I did it, I thought, Oh man, I'm never going to get this.

[01:01:32] It ended up being my strongest move or movement. So being a weightlifter requires you to.

[01:01:55] Aging is the accumulation of multiple [01:02:00] discomfort. It's actually the term for it. It's called Alice ASIS. Alice Stacy's is the process, the process of the body and how it responds, responds to stress in order to regain homeostasis. So when you age and you start having aches and pains, they could keep you home.

[01:02:20] But if you have the capacity to handle a large allostatic load, they won't keep you home. They'll allow you to go out and do what you have to do. And the older you get. The greater the alostatic load, because whether you're injuring yourself in the gym with regularity, or you've had injuries that they start to creep up and nag you or your body just doesn't want to work the way it used to, which get ready for it.

[01:02:47] Folks, if you, I thought I was going to be the one guy that that was never going to happen to. Cause I was going to train hard for the rest of my life. I was going to use peptides. I knew all the biohacks way before these other guys were talking about biohacks. I was [01:03:00] doing all those things. And granted they've gotten me here.

[01:03:04] My sister was already cripple at 62 and we share the same problem that she had and it wasn't Parkinson's disease. She was misdiagnosed, but I digress. Your body starts to act in ways that you don't feel comfortable. Move movements. Just moving reminds you that, Oh my God. Like my body doesn't want to do the things I wanted to do anymore.

[01:03:31] And that requires you to muscle through the day muscle through your life. Now, if you've never lifted weights and you've never embraced discomfort in order to achieve a goal. Then you're probably going to be sidetracked by aging. You know, there's an old saying you've heard it right. Aging isn't for pussies guests, watt it's frigging true because [01:04:00] people who age and feel uncomfortable in their bodies, they don't want to move anymore.

[01:04:05] They don't want to be reminded that they're not where they used to be. So they sit more because they feel normal. Sitting, sitting is easy. But doing life, actually doing life day in and day out as you age requires the management of the allostatic load that you've accumulated to that point in time. And so weightlifting teaches you to be cool with that.

[01:04:35] It's okay. Momentary, um, pain. Um, Discomfort. It's all. Okay. With those of us, who've put our bodies to the test. You will age better. I promise you if you are a weightlifter, if you are a progressive overload fan or even junkie, because there will come times where [01:05:00] your body hurts and it doesn't want to do what you want it to do, and you'll be able to muscle the fuck through it.

[01:05:09] And that means that every day you'll get up willing to move forward in life and do life and live as opposed to locking yourself into a house, not communicating with your friends anymore, just sitting there because you don't want to re you're reminded that you're aging. So this is an unintended value.

[01:05:35] In the lifestyles that we lead, that I'll be long gone. And some of you younger folks out there will go, wow, it's true. I have friends my age. They don't do anything anymore. Meanwhile, I'm going out and doing things and I have the same aches and pains that they do. But you just don't let it get you down.

[01:05:58] You muscle to look at me. I'm [01:06:00] 62 years old. I just took up riding a motorcycle again. I have friends that are my age that would never think of doing that. Now, granted, I rode when I was a young man, but it's been 40 years since I've written a motorcycle. It's pretty ballsy of me to think, okay, I'm going to get on a, you know, 120 horsepower motorcycle.

[01:06:18] That's 800 pounds and change. And while I muscled through it, I have to, you know, I'm, I'm willing to do it again. This all comes from. The physical culture lifestyle. So it's not just the intrinsic value of your muscles, staying nice and full and strong your bones, staying nice and strong that you're doing for yourself, but it's the mental capacity and mental ability to deal with the aloe static load of aging with every year.

[01:06:53] There comes new challenges for your body to muscle through. So you can live life [01:07:00] and do the things you want to do. And nothing, nothing in the world prepares you for that, like weightlifting. So next time you're sitting with your friends and they're talking about their aches and pains. You don't have to say anything, you know, in your head, they won't do the things you do.

[01:07:19] That are going to keep you in fluid motion throughout your life. Even though you have all the same challenges that everybody else does because you can muscle through it. That is critical thinking one-on-one today. I hope you enjoy it. Share the stories with other people. Today's Friday, I'm off the air tomorrow.

[01:07:39] We have great shows next week. We're finally going to be talking about why K 11. Why K 11, some people call it a Psalm. I think it's an anabolic steroid and Victor black, a guy who writes extensively on anabolic steroids and weightlifting and bodybuilding is going to come on the show all the way from Asia.

[01:07:59] It's going to be [01:08:00] midnight his time. He's going to be on Wednesday of next week. You're not going to want to miss the show because why K 11 may be very, very misunderstood and. It could be dangerous to use or it could be the next big thing. We're going to find out Wednesday. So join me that night. Remember muscle is metabolic currency.

[01:08:22] It's the truth. So get into the gym and make a deposit today and we'll see you Monday. Have a great weekend. Stay safe. [01:09:00] .
