Doctors have found the elixir of ageless youth. The super mineral that knocks 20 years off your age

Longevity expert Dr. Mark Hyman claims his biological age makes him look two decades younger than the bulletin. At 64, he says it’s all down to good habits like exercise and nutritious meals. Here is what super-mineral the specialist never gives up!

Dr. Mark Hyman, on the secret of longevity

Hyman is not speaking out against aging, a natural and inevitable process by the way, but he wants people to go through it in a better way. In his opinion, the idea that old age necessarily comes with health problems such as joint pain, difficulty thinking and chronic diseases is completely wrong:

“People don’t realize that these problems are happening because of things we can change that are reversible. It is a treatable condition, as opposed to an inevitable decline.”

Magnesium, the mineral with extraordinary properties for the body

According to the doctor, magnesium helps with healthy heart rate, energy and neurotransmitter production, bone metabolism, sleep, relaxation and more.

For that magnesium is involved in so many biochemical processes in our body, deficiency symptoms can appear almost anywhere. Mood swings, insomnia, migraines, fatigue, high blood pressure and osteoporosis were related to a low level of magnesium.

Caffeine, sugar, chronic stress, anxiety and exercise depletes all magnesium, so that it is recommended to consume magnesium in larger quantities, and then magnesium supplements, if we are deficient.

Sources of Magnesium

The foods that Dr. Hyman recommends for daily consumption are:

cruciferous vegetables: spinach, broccoli, Brussels sprouts/Kale (they are rich in phytonutrients that reduce inflammation and reduce the risk of cancer)
extra virgin olive oil (provides antioxidants that protect against chronic diseases such as heart disease)
the nuts: cashews, almonds, walnuts (they are rich in fiber, healthy fats; promote satiety and sustained energy; contribute to a low risk of diabetes)
berries: blueberries, blackberries (they are full of antioxidants and phytochemicals that activate longevity pathways)
Green tea (rich in catechins, reduces oxidative stress and protects the brain from age-related diseases)

These foods, according to the doctor, act like “medicine” and play a vital role in maintaining optimal health and extending longevity.
