Effects of Magnesium on Cognitive Function

It was a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial,

literally the strongest

type of study you could do. And they gave half the

participants magnesium L-threonate.

And that particular form of magnesium readily passes the

blood-brain barrier, so it rapidly increases

neuronal magnesium stores. And so reflective

of increasing brain magnesium is

increased cognitive capacity, reaction time,

uh, cognitive processing. And in that, they found that

that increase in cognitive, uh,

capabilities from the magnesium

L-threonate, uh, is the equivalent to your

brain performing seven and a half years younger.

Magnesium is critical for thousands of cellular and

enzymatic processes in the human body,

specifically in the brain, right?

Your brain needs magnesium. The neurons need

magnesium to carry out their functions

adequately
