Magnesium MUST be in any Depression Treatment (THREAD✨🧬)

The way it helps is so simple, yet so impactful and beneficial

Even if you don’t have Depression, you’ll benefit from pumping up your Magnesium intake

(THREAD) ✨🧬
Mag is one of the most POWERFUL antagonist of the Glutamate Receptors, if not the most.

And also a big GABA-booster

Remember fellas:

- Glutamate: Excitatory, triggers anxiety & overthinking

- GABA: Relaxing, +equanimity. A calm mind.
Magnesium is a big cofactor to turn GLUTAMATE into GABA

In other words:

Magnesium will make it easier to relax when u want

(Vitamin B6 is essential for this process too, don’t neglect it!!)
How to know if you have a GABA/GLUTAMATE disbalance?

- Get angry/overwhelmed/stressed VERY easily
- Cant turn off your mind
- Cant fall asleep easily
- Depression
- Cant focus on ONE task
- Always rushing from one task to another

In other words: Anxiety
Just by having balanced this simple GABA/GLUTAMATE mechanism, you’ll achieve:

- Equanimity
- Emotional Intelligence
- A restful sleep
- Very high focus
- Power over your thoughts

Hence, a better life quality
Another mechanism that makes Mag indispensable for Depression/Anxiety:

- Inhibits ACTH hormone release in the hippocampus

ACTH (adrenocorticotrophic) is the hormone that tells your Adrenals...

To produce more Cortisol and Adrenaline!
Eventually, high levels of this hormone will cause Chroninc Stress

Which will disbalance GABA & GLUTAMATE

Which will cause ANXIETY

Which will cause higher ACTH levels

Which will disbalance GAB- you get it, right?
Will cause a Negative Feedback Loop, until magnesium/inositol/b6/b1/ stops it.
Again, Magnesium is a MUST in any Depression or mood/emotional issue treatment

Even trauma or similar, when you have a GABA/GLUT balance, it’ll be way easier to heal
And lets say you don’t have any mood issue

You’ll STILL benefit from consuming more magnesium sources

Better GABA/GLUT balance = More focus, emotional intelligence and stoicism

(follow @MySuccessTheory for stoicism lessons, amazing account & homie)
So start consuming more Magnesium Sources

And you WILL FEEL BETTER
Another way that Magnesium will massively help depression/anxiety

Through keeping your bowel movements regular

Magnesium helps your colon contract in a “regular” and “normal” way, hence, helps it to move your shit like it should be
If you’re constipated and backed up, you are literally full of bad bacteria and crap

Which in the long term, will cause a Gut Bacteria Imbalance (dysbiosis)

And ngl, i don’t wish that to anyone
- +95% of your serotonin
- +50% of your DOPAMINE!
- Good amounts of GABA!!!, melatonin and Oxytocin (“love” hormone)

Are produced in your gut.

By your good bacteria, obviously

If you don’t have good fellas?

Well

Not want to say it but, you’re a biiiittt fucked
Magnesium, Kefir AND Fasting will keep your gut very very healthy

And of course avoid REFINED SUGAR, gluten, processed food, toxic oils, corn, etc
