Why We’re Magnesium Deficient and How To Fix It with Sandy Sanderson, Founder of Elektra Magnesium

We all know that magnesium is a critical supplement. But interestingly, the majority of people today are magnesium deficient. I had my own assumptions as to why this is the case, but I wanted to chat with an expert to really understand why magnesium is so important for our body and why we can’t seem to get enough of it.

So, I reached out to Sandy Sanderson, who after experiencing severe symptoms that were misdiagnosed by traditional medicine, conducted extensive research and healed herself. This lead her to found Elektra Magnesium, which makes topical solutions that allow for magnesium to be optimally absorbed into the skin, while fitting seamlessly into your daily routines.

When I first chatted with Sandy it became glaringly obvious that she is a fantastic source for all things magnesium. Her extensive research and years of experience truly makes her a subject matter expert. In this episode she’s getting really deep into the science behind what magnesium’s role is in the body and the root cause of our deficiencies. Magnesium is not only critical for digestion and nutrient absorption but also critical for regulating stress and heart health. It can prevent diabetes, help with restless leg syndrome, acne, and so much more.

Just a heads up this episode is probably the most information rich episode I’ve had to date. It’s a lot to absorb in just an hour so grab a coffee and pen and paper because you’ll want to take notes. Sandy is incredibly knowledgable which makes this essentially a debriefing on medical journals and honestly the best woman for this episode. I guarantee that after you’re done listening, you’re going to want to head straight to her website and get her products. I personally suffer from magnesium deficiency that couldn’t be solved through oral supplements, so I was completely sold after talking to Sandy.

You’re going to learn a lot from this episode, so buckle up and let’s welcome her to the podcast.
