Magnesium is absolutely essential for our health!

It is beneficial for:
Heart health
Bone health
Metabolic health
Sleep
Stress management
Bowel movements

Also, regulates nerve and muscle function throughout the body, including the heart muscle, and really low levels can show up as leg or toe cramps and eye twitching for example.

This powerhouse mineral is responsible for over 300 enzymatic processes in the body! The benefits of magnesium are essential for optimal health, yet many of us are deficient and suffer from symptoms.

Are you consuming enough of this powerful mineral?

The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for adults 19-51+ years is 400-420 mg daily for men and 310-320 mg for women. However, if you have chronic stress and/or constipation your needs are greater. Each person is unique to those needs.

When considering a food-first approach to consuming magnesium in your diet consider consuming a diet high in plant-based foods like nuts, legumes, grains, and non-starchy vegetables!

It can be as easy as eating:
✨1 cup of cooked spinach contains 158 grams of magnesium
✨1 oz of pumpkin seeds contains 168mg of magnesium
✨1 cup of black beans contains 120 mg of magnesium
✨1 cup of quinoa has 118 mg of magnesium

If you still need help when food is not enough, we can recommend a pharmaceutical-grade magnesium supplement to meet those needs even if it is on a temporary basis. Let us know in the comments below.

Behavior change is very complicated and challenging because it requires a person to disrupt a current habit while at the same time adopting a new, possibly unfamiliar one with a new set of actions.

This is a time-consuming process and most of us do not have the patience for it!

Something as simple as drinking an extra cup of water a day can take an average of two months to become a consistent, new habit.

Keeping in mind that setback happens and you need to have a plan for when it happens.

Consider reflecting on these three questions could prove to be a powerful strategy to get back on track:

1. What did I learn from this setback?
2. What needs to happen to get back into action?
3. How do you want to treat yourself while working toward change?

As they say, patience is a virtue, and giving yourself grace in the journey can make difficult times a whole lot easier!

✨Are you tired of being tired but do not know why?

✨Did you know that B vitamins are critical for energy production?

✨B vitamins serve as cofactors in energy-producing metabolic processes. Without B vitamins, your body can not properly utilize the food you consume and turn it into energy!

✨Food is medicine! The variety and rotation of these foods are helpful to receive adequate B vitamins for proper energy and support your microbiome.



✨If unable to consume all of these foods daily, a supplement may be needed. DM me if you want to know of a pharmaceutical-grade multivitamin with all the B vitamins!

Save and share this with friends and family who may need an energy boost!

I will never forget seeing Tina Turner in Hampton Beach NH when I was 19 years old with seats touching the stage (tiny place). You could feel the electric power of her energy (never stopped moving), vocals and spirit!! It was a gift to witness!

Read her quote below! Words to live by!

Read this quote (I just got from a Jody Watley post)
•
From 👇🏾
Ms. Tina Turner. 1939-2023.
🙌🏾👑🕊️🕯️
“When I started as a solo artist, I was a female Black singer in my forties with no money and few prospects for gigs. Still, I kept a ‘never give up’ spirit. Part of my spiritual practice is to change poison into medicine, to transform roadblocks through positivity. The force of my positivity pushed the discriminatory ‘ isms’ standing in my way. We all have it within our power to make decisions and take actions that elevate us. Every day, we express who we are, and who we wish to become, through our thoughts, words and deeds. Choose the positive path in everything you do. Spread positivity and kindness. That’s the way.
My legacy is that I stayed on course, from beginning to the end..because I believed in something inside of me.” - Ms. Tina Turner. 1939-2023.
🙌🏾👑🕊️🕯️
Rest In Peace ✨

💥Did you know that each oil and fat has a different smoke point?
A smoke point is the temperature at which the oil will burn and become damaged.

💥Some fats, like butter and olive oil, have low smoke points, which means they should only be used at low-temperatures.

💥On the contrary, Avocado oil and coconut oil can be used at higher temperatures. So, a much better choice to roast, broil or saute foods.

💥It is important to be aware of these different smoke points as 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐢𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐬𝐦𝐨𝐤𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐢𝐥 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨-𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐬 and a 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝, 𝐚𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐢𝐧, which may be harmful to your health!

Not all oils are created equally! Check the list and see what you have been purchasing and using vs. what you could be consuming. The difference can mean UNWANTED inflammation in the body that then creates a whole host of issues.

Read labels to be assured that what you are buying...you're getting! Don't be fooled by the marketing on the front of the label. Look for verified organic and nongmo labels!
