Magnesium is arguably one of the most important minerals necessary for the optimal functioning of the human body. Responsible for over 300 biochemical reactions, magnesium is present in our bones, cells and organs.

As we age, levels of magnesium decrease even further, leaving us vulnerable to a host of diseases directly linked to a lack of this essential mineral, including stroke and heart disease.

Barack Obama gets $400,000.00 a speech. Why, I have no idea, but he gets it, and that’s fine and dandy, but why am I paying for his worthless performance as a president, in retirement?
