If you don’t have time to read the full blog post, just remember this: Acid-Kicking Magnesium is your SECRET WEAPON. It’s the ultimate biohack for productively managing stress, enhancing sleep quality, and improving mental clarity.
Ok, now it's time to nerd out on brain and gut health, and then I’ll spill my biohacks!
Starting with: Your Vagus Nerve.
Your vagus nerve is like the body's superhighway, connecting your brain to key organs like your heart, gut, and lungs. When this nerve is firing on all cylinders, your body operates in a state of balance.
Think: better digestion, lower inflammation, improved mood, and deeper sleep. But when it’s sluggish? Brain fog, anxiety, problematic gut issues, autoimmune diseases, and the list is endless.
One of the best ways to give your vagus nerve the fuel it needs? Magnesium. But not just any magnesium; Acid-Kicking Magnesium is a blend of highly absorbable forms of magnesium:
- Citrate: Your smooth move BFF for those with gut issues such as bloating, passing gas, indigestion, etc.
- Bisglycinate: Exactly what your body needs for a deep and restorative sleep. If you can’t sleep well, you lack bisglycinate.
- Taurate: Heart disease is the #1 killer of American women, and taurate is your ticket to reducing blood pressure, regulating blood sugar, and lowering anxiety.
The moral of the story is that more magnesium is needed for an optimally functioning vagus nerve, gut, and brain. Seriously, at least 600 mg daily, so start your Acid-Kicking Magnesium subscription now. Your body and mind will love you for it.
Why Magnesium is Your Brain and Gut’s Best Friend
Yet, chances are, you’re not getting enough of it.
This is WHY: For every molecule of sugar you consume, your body requires 54 molecules of magnesium to process it. That means a diet high in processed foods and refined sugars is quietly draining your magnesium reserves.
No wonder magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body—but one of the most common deficiencies. Here’s proof: A University of Notre Dame study calls magnesium the “invisible efficacy” because over 75% of Americans are deficient. YOU and your family most likely fall into the 75%.
Easy Biohacks to Boost Magnesium and Vagus Nerve Function
Want to supercharge your vagus nerve and flood your body with magnesium? Try these simple biohacks:
1. Eat More Magnesium-Rich, Alkalizing Foods
Ditch the sugar and load up on magnesium-packed, alkaline foods like:
- Dark leafy greens: Dig into my Kale, Avocado & Pepita Salad.
- Avocados: Treat yourself with my Avocado Chocolate Mousse.
- Pumpkin and chia seeds: Refresh with my Chia Fresca.
- Almonds: Lavishly enjoy my Chocolate Almond Smoothie.
- Wild-caught fish like salmon and mackerel: Whip up my quick citrus-herb roasted salmon recipe.
2. Take a Superior Magnesium Supplement
Due to soil depletion and living in a minefield of toxins, even the cleanest diet does not provide enough magnesium. This is why Acid-Kicking Magnesium should be a part of your wake-up and go-to-bed routines.
3. Hydrate with Magnesium-Infused Water
Upgrade your hydration by adding Acid-Kicking Minerals and a pinch of Himalayan sea salt to your water for an extra refreshing magnesium boost.
4. Stimulate Your Vagus Nerve with Deep Breathing
One of the simplest vagus nerve hacks is deep, diaphragmatic breathing. Try this:
- Inhale through your nose for 4 seconds.
- Hold for 4 seconds.
- Exhale slowly through your mouth for 8 seconds.
- Repeat for 2-5 minutes.
5. Ditch the Sugar and Processed Foods
We already know sugar depletes magnesium. Cutting back on processed foods and refined sugar will immediately help your body retain more of this essential mineral.
My final thoughts: Magnesium is Your Secret Weapon. Same as my wisdom in the first sentence. Your body will ALWAYS need more magnesium. Now and forever!
