Yeah turns out all I had to do was take a pill of Diet Meth in the morning and now I can function like a human being

I have incredible news for some eggs
It was folic acid for me. Turns out me and my family don't get the full affect of vitamins or medicines. After some genetic testing we are all taking it and are all feeling a lot better and our meds are actually working. It's nuts how simple it was to turn us all around.
Looks like a few ways to test for this, how'd you guys find the needle in the haystack? Doctors won't actually run all the tests for cost reasons..
I kept having to change meds because different ones didn't work. One doc got me genetic testing which cost me about $15.
Source is Pictures For Sad Children, if anyone's unfamiliar. Not that it's been available online in the last decade.
Magnesium for me. I don’t know why but it makes my brain work better. I feel horribly anxious, depressed, and intolerant of others when I forget to take it for more than three days or so.
Fun site I just showed my partner. He's been having ADHD flair up, insomnia, twitching and loss of appetite. For me, it helps regulate stress and anxiety. Low magnesium levels are so common. The world could be a better place if our bodies actually received/processed what we need to thrive.
Same for me, taking magnesium basically treated my anxiety and insomnia.
My wife started giving me her electrolyte mix and feeding me sardines everyday and I can't tell you how much better I feel
It has magnesium in it, but I think it's the particular form of potassium in it that's hitting my deficiency. It tastes like potatoes and it's.... I guess it's not bad. Like drinking starch water.
Shout-out to my wife who i'd probably whither away and die without.
I imagine you as a seal, happily awaiting his yummy sardine treat
I tried these Magnesium drink tablets while I was in Europe. Could feel how much it helped. Can't find anything similar in the States :\
If you're looking for magnesium most nuts are very good sources of it.
Almonds, cashews, peanuts! All very tasty too.
I’m going to try this before I head for the cliff. :p
It changed my life, seriously. I mentioned it to my doctor with one of her residents present. The resident had recently finished a psych rotation and said that she learned that most people are deficient.
I've been rocking some magnesium citrate supplements for a couple of years now. It does seem to help. What do you take specifically?
NOW brand Magnesium Citrate, 200mg. From experience, NOW is one of those few brands you can trust.
Oh wow, pretty much the same for me. I'm doing the 400mg though.
I previously tried the Solgar brand, which is good too, but more expensive. I really like NOW for the majority of my supplements.
The doctor's best chelated magnesium works even better for me than citrate did, although citrate is easier to find in person if you're opposed to ordering it from Amazon.
