When do you take it in the mornings’ just once a day?
only magnesium citrate creates diarrhoe, if taken too much, glycinate is fine and so is orotate, which is especially good for heart health
Ah, I just adore you! Thank you for helping us improve our health and our lives!! Can you please do an in depth on increasing bone density without resorting to traditional medicine? Tysm ❤
You are so welcome! It’s always my pleasure to help! I’ll def look into that for you but magnesium is step one and get yourself a weighted vest!
@mauras, check out the Dr. Doug Show—tons of info on bone health. ❤
@@PeaceIsYeshuaTried to listen but he speaks so slow that no one under 40yrs old can listen. Most of his info is dated too, Google it, dairy(esp full fat) increases inflammation, which is bad all around.
@@jasminej.542
You can speed up the playback speed! 😊 Also, I was vegan for over a decade, and agreed with you about dairy, but now I eat _tons_ of dairy without inflammatory responses, and I absolutely love it. My diet feels so decadent now. 🤣
I also love knowing that as I’m getting older, I’m giving my body protein that it can best utilize.
As you know though, the experts all disagree with each other. 🙂
In the end, we really just have to listen to our own bodies and intuition. I think my body was telling me to start eating animal proteins since I’m over 45 now.
Magnesium Glycinate been taking for 2 months started 2nd bottle …can’t go back ever.
Love this! Keep it going!!! 💪🏻
Could barely walk from planters fasciitis for over a year. started taking Magnesium and was totally healed within a week! I’ll never stop!
Really???!! Did you do anything else differently? Diff shoes, stretching, pt?
@@chalenejohnson Nope, and I didnt even take the most expensive kind. I did have to deal with a bit of loose stools until I got my dosage right. I did take more than the recommended dosage but I’ll never stop taking it. Also, I had tried all of the things you mentioned and more. Nothing worked! Only magnesium. I am 67 now and have taken it for more than 5 years with no return of foot pain.
Wow I have been having problems with plantar fasciitis, am looking forward to do more magnesium to see if it helps for me!
@@soniahartnett1552 I recommended this to a few of my friends and all that tried it found relief. Take it at night as it relaxes your muscles. You will get tired from it. I started out with a wal mart brand but do your research and go from there. I would imagine Chalenes has probably got more good things for you in it. But I havent tried it.
Which type of Magnesium?
Adding Magnesium Glycinate to my daily life stopped my perimenopausal night sweats. Game. Changer.
Love this!
Chalene is forever 21 and needs no over 40 help! For those you tube bullies who think I am a “simp” for respecting Chalene and expressing it, if that means “simp” then so be it. God Bless, Chalene and Her family!
Thank you, Patrick! God bless you too
Before I even clicked on this video just by reading the title I knew that This video was going to be about magnesium !
That’s awesome!
Me too!!!!!
Chalene, thank you for your hard work! You inspire me in many ways with your thoughtful videos. 👍👍❤️
Thank you for everything you do for us❤
I started taking that magnesium supplement when you said months ago that is the brand you take. I started with one capsule before bedtime and it helped my sleep almost immediately! Love it AND they do have excellent customer service. I was reordering last month and something glitched and order was completed so I thought no big deal I will try again later. The next day their customer service emailed me and apologized and asked if they can process the order and sent a free bottle just for the inconvenience.
Im vegan and i needed to supplement, it’s not a food issue it’s a soil issue.
I have to say your SKIN IS GLOWING!!! I’m going alcohol free after the holidays! I hope my skin and effects are as great as yours
Which is best powder, capsules or gummies and how do I know I have the right type…I’ll have to listen again.
I wanted to tell you something very important…. Magnesium Gylcinate has taken away ear ringing. It does this by relaxing the body and veins. However the capsules have SILICA as a dessicate which puts my ears in orbit. So, I simply cut open the caps to release the powdered Mag. inside. I take 4 per day and my ears are quiet. And no silica to bother about…… please tell anyone you know who has the ringing. The dose is approximately 400 mg. Thankyou.😊 PS. I am a retired nurse and to answer your great question about why Physicians don’t talk about vitamins, is they don’t learn it in Med school…well let’s just say not much. Plus….. there’s NO PROFIT IN IT. Inflammation is huge in causing heart disease…… which is, as you pointed out, a critical health issue for women. Subbed.
OMG i have ringing- please tell me what brand you use?
What brand do you use?
Please share which brand you are using.
I thought that Silica was healthy for skin.
This was such a fabulous video. Well researched and edited. Thank you and your team for your hard work! ❤ You and your husband are so cute! 🥰
Just the info ive been needing thank you so much for this!
Such great information..thank you
Absolutely helpful 🙏🏻
Thank you, Charlene. This video is the answer to my prayers. I have most of these symptoms mentioned. I’m going to focus on which magnesium I need to improve my quality of life. Thank you for creating this important video 🙏💖🙌
Love BIOPTIMIZERS!! Thank you so much for recommending this FABULOUS company!! You’re the best, Chalene-THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO!!! 🥰
