Recommended Frequency:
Every day
You can customize this routine to suit your needs, so anything you don't like, change or skip it!
Magnesium-Rich Brain Foods
Incorporate magnesium-rich foods into your diet to support brain health. Good dietary sources of magnesium for the brain include:
- 🥬 Dark leafy greens
- 🥜 Nuts and seeds
- 🐟 Fatty fish like mackerel
These foods are rich in magnesium and other nutrients that may benefit brain function and cognitive performance.
Magnesium Threonate Supplementation
Magnesium threonate is a form of magnesium that may have potential benefits for brain health. While the evidence is limited, it is believed to cross the blood-brain barrier more effectively than other forms of magnesium. Consider supplementing with magnesium threonate if you're interested in exploring its potential cognitive benefits, but do not count it towards your recommended daily magnesium intake.
Migraine Management
If you suffer from migraines, magnesium supplementation may help reduce the frequency and intensity of migraine episodes. Magnesium is believed to prevent cortical spreading depression and reduce the release of pain-transmitting chemicals in the brain.
- 💪Improved Brain FunctionConsuming magnesium-rich foods may support brain health by providing the necessary nutrients for various brain processes, potentially improving cognitive function and reducing the risk of age-related cognitive decline.
- 💪Potential Cognitive BenefitsWhile the evidence is limited, magnesium threonate may have potential benefits for brain health and cognitive function due to its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier more effectively than other forms of magnesium.
- 💪Reduced Migraine Frequency and IntensityMagnesium supplementation may help reduce the frequency and intensity of migraine episodes by preventing cortical spreading depression and reducing the release of pain-transmitting chemicals in the brain.
