PLUS if there is any disturbance in the middle of the night (i.e. getting up to go to the bathroom), you will be able to fall right back to sleep. Sleep Breakthrough also allows you to wake up in the morning without that foggy brain feeling that you didn’t sleep enough. And those two factors together are a big differentiating factor in success. When you have great sleep, you make better decisions. You have the ability to laterally feel what’s going on. You have a lot more intuitiveness because you’re not fighting all of this chemical buildup that’s been happening overnight. When you get good sleep, you feel like a rock star the next day and your performance is so much higher than it would be otherwise that you don’t really need an outside stimulant.

Because four out of five Americans aren’t. And that’s a big problem because magnesium is involved in more than 300 biochemical reactions in your body. There are dozens of symptoms of magnesium deficiency: anxiety, insomnia, muscle cramps or twitches, high blood pressure, constipation, these are just a few of the most common ones. Now here’s what most people DON’T know: taking just any magnesium supplement won’t solve your problem because most supplements use the cheapest kinds that your body can’t use or absorb. That’s why I exclusively recommend Magnesium Breakthrough. It’s the only full-spectrum magnesium supplement with 7 unique forms of magnesium that your body can actually use and absorb.
