Here are 10 powerful benefits of magnesium (besides sleep):
✨ 1. Supports blood sugar balance�Magnesium plays a key role in insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism.
❤️ 2. Promotes heart health�It helps regulate heart rhythm, blood pressure, and vascular tone.
💪 3. Reduces muscle cramps and tension�Magnesium helps muscles relax after contraction - great for tight shoulders, leg cramps, and post-workout recovery.
🧠 4. Supports brain function�It’s involved in neurotransmitter balance and may help with mood stability and mental clarity.
😌 5. Calms the nervous system�Magnesium supports GABA activity - your brain’s natural calming signal.
🔥 6. Reduces inflammation�It plays a role in regulating inflammatory pathways throughout the body.
🦴 7. Supports bone strength�Magnesium works alongside calcium and vitamin D for healthy bone structure.
⚡ 8. Helps with energy production�It’s required for ATP production - the body’s main energy molecule.
💧 9. Supports hormone balance�Magnesium is involved in stress hormone regulation and can help buffer cortisol effects.
💩 10. Supports digestion�Certain forms (like magnesium citrate) can promote bowel regularity.

Magnesium is involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body - yet many adults are suboptimal.
Not all forms are the same, and not everyone needs supplementation - but it’s one of the most foundational minerals for overall health.

I cut this ribbon 4 years ago today….

We opened Towncrest Wellness Apothecary 4 years ago today.

Our goal was to create something different - a pharmacy built around people, not just prescriptions. A place where lifestyle medicine, customized compounding, and preventative, functional care could truly support patients in ways traditional pharmacy sometimes can’t.

Over the past four years, we’ve had the privilege of helping thousands of patients with customized therapies, nutritional supplements, trusted guidance, and a team that genuinely cares about improving health outcomes.

What started as an idea has grown into a thriving apothecary rooted in innovation, collaboration, and community. None of this would be possible without our incredible staff, our provider partners, and the community who has trusted us along the way.

Thank you for being part of this journey. 💙💚

Do thyroid meds cause nutrient depletions…? 🤔

No, but that’s not the full story.

Your body utilizes iodine and tyrosine to create inactive thyroid (T4), which NEEDS selenium and zinc to convert to its active form (T3).

There are several meds and lifestyles that reduce your zinc and selenium levels to create a thyroid imbalance.

This is why supplementing with zinc, selenium, tyrosine, iodine, and antioxidants can be supportive of thyroid function.

What med do you want me to do next? 💬
