Your body doesn’t run out of hormones. It spends them.
When your nervous system runs in overdrive — not occasionally, but as your normal setting — it draws continuously on the same raw materials your body uses to build hormones. Pregnenolone. DHEA. Progesterone. Testosterone. They get spent faster than they get replaced.
That is why this gets misread so often. It looks like a hormone problem, so it gets handled as one. But if nothing turns down the system doing the spending, you are pouring into a tank that is still draining.
Magnesium is where I keep landing. Hundreds of enzyme reactions depend on it, including the ones that calm that system down — and it is the mineral that comes back low most consistently, test after test, in people who genuinely eat well. Not because they are doing anything wrong. Our soil carries less than it used to, and our way of living asks more than it used to.
There is one detail most people get half right, and it is the difference between taking magnesium and actually using it. It is in the guide, because it needs a diagram rather than a sentence.
I put what I actually check into it — the four that come back low, again and again, and the forms worth asking for. It’s free.
Comment MINERALS and I’ll send it to you.
