Studies show that people who read the labels when choosing foods are generally healthier than those who don't.

How do you understand what's on the label?

Simple! Real food ingredients are easy to understand.

Anything that requires a chemistry degree to understand is a chemical. Put it back.

Unless you grow your own food on good soils then the produce today isn’t what it used to be. Minerals matter because mineral are used to make vitamins. Then minerals and vitamins together make enzymes. And enzymes do all the work in our body. The balance diet is not easily achieved. Supplementing is the option.

Magnesium glycinate and magnesium bisglycinate refer to essentially the same compound. Both describe magnesium chelated (bound) with two molecules of the amino acid glycine. The terms are often used interchangeably in supplements, but "magnesium bisglycinate" emphasizes that there are two glycine molecules attached to the magnesium ion, while "magnesium glycinate" is a shorter, more general term.

Functionally and in terms of bioavailability, there is no significant difference between the two. Both are well-absorbed forms of magnesium and are gentle on the stomach compared to other forms like magnesium oxide or magnesium citrate.

MY TOP 3 FOR SENIORS
As we seniors age our digestive tract and other systems ages and becomes less efficient. If it were not so then we would still look like we’re 30 years old. Less efficient digestive tract means less efficient absorption of our food and more waste. More waste so that why we move our bowels more often then our younger days. Fact of life so we might want to cheat a little.

My top-3 go to list as a senior is

1) Vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin, the active form. Why?
To prevent stroke/sudden death from the build up of HCY or homocysteine. HCY is like superglue so it hardens blood vessels super fast .. then stroke, cancer or worst.

2) Magnesium as magnesium glycinate or threonate. Why? To keep our muscles relax … especially the heart, a 24/7 muscle. Essentially to prevent heart attack. Magnesium is getting lower and lower in our vegetables because of intensive farming. Like -75%

3) Omega 3 with total EPA & DHA of at least >600mg per serving. Why? To prevent dementia, memory loss, as we age. 60% of your brain fat is DHA. Supplement and also eat lots of fatty cold water fish like cod and halibut.

Above all, eat real, eat whole and eat clean. No processed and no preservatives. Avoid xenoestrogens from plastics, phalates, polyestersc etc.

3 Tips to avoid dementia

1) High DHA fish oil daily. 60% of your brain fat is DHA. If it shrinks you fade .

2. Magnesium glycinate or threonate supplement daily. Magnesium relaxes the muscles and if the neck/shoulder muscles are tense then it constricts the carotid arteries that send blood to the brain. Relaxing your muscles also help you sleep better. If your sleep quality drops then your neck/shoulder muscles tense up. Magnesium also maintains healthy blood pressure.

3. Gingko Biloba leaf extract or Gotu Kola supplement to dilate your blood vessels and keep optimum blood circulation using the nitric oxide mechanism.

Stay sharp all the way to the end.

Eat clean and eat real. No preservatives, no processed, no MSG and preferably no trans-fats, etc. It makes what you eat very easy to burn.

If you eat stuff that your body cannot break down then you store it. Dead fats (dead adipose tissue) won’t burn then stores and stores into weight gain.

The Scotts ate oats but the English considered oats only fit for their horses. The English however noted that Scottish men were as strong as horses.

See why I eat regular rough oats for breakfast. Keeps me strong as a bear.

Daily we must make serotonin, a neurotransmitter for our brain. We eat seeds to acquire the protein call L-Tryptophan that converts to 5-HTP and into serotonin for our mood. At night serotonin is converted to melatonin for our sleep. Next day we make new serotonin.
