The Truth About Magnesium: Why Your Body Might Be Running on Empty And How to Fix It Naturally

The Truth About Magnesium: Why Your Body Might Be Running on Empty And How to Fix It Naturally

Picture of Schellea

Schellea

Have you ever found yourself lying in bed at night, exhausted but unable to relax?

Your mind won’t slow down.
Your body feels tense and heavy.
Sleep feels like something you have to chase.
And you’re left wondering…
Why does it feel like something is missing?

You’re not alone.

I hear from women every day—especially in their 50s and beyond—who are doing all the “right” things: eating clean, exercising, managing stress, going to bed early. And still, they’re struggling.

They’re waking up tired.
They’re feeling inflamed or anxious.
They’re noticing their muscles ache for no clear reason.
And they’re wondering if this is just what aging feels like.

But here’s the truth:
This isn’t about age.
And it’s not just your hormones.

There’s a deeper, quieter deficiency that rarely gets talked about—yet it affects nearly every woman I know.

That missing piece is magnesium.

Magnesium: The Mineral Your Body Can’t Live Without

Magnesium is essential. Full stop.

It plays a critical role in over 300 enzymatic functions in your body. These are not fringe processes—these are foundational.

Magnesium is required for:

  • Calming your nervous system
  • Helping your muscles relax and recover
  • Supporting deep, restorative sleep
  • Regulating your heartbeat
  • Balancing your mood and energy
  • Managing inflammation at the cellular level

And yet… most of us are running on empty.

Modern estimates suggest that as many as 50 to 75 percent of people are magnesium deficient. And in women over 50, that number may be even higher.

But why?

We’re eating well.
We’re taking care of ourselves.
So what’s happening?

Where Did All the Magnesium Go?

There was a time—not that long ago—when magnesium was abundant in daily life.

It was in the soil that grew our food.
It was in the mineral-rich spring water we drank.
It was in the oceans and salt baths we soaked in.
It was in the Earth—and in us.

Our ancestors absorbed magnesium naturally through their skin and diet, without needing to think about it.

But modern life has changed that.

Industrial farming has depleted the soil of vital minerals.
Most tap water is filtered to the point that it removes all natural trace elements.
Even organic vegetables grown in poor soil may be lacking the magnesium your body needs.

Today, deficiency is no longer rare—it’s expected.

And your body feels the effects.

When magnesium runs low, stress hits harder. Sleep becomes more elusive. Muscles tighten. Energy dips. You may feel scattered, anxious, or inflamed—and not know why.

What About Magnesium Supplements?

This was my first thought too.

For years, I took magnesium supplements hoping they’d help with sleep, stress, and sore muscles.

But deep down, I knew they weren’t really working.

I still felt tense. Still wired at night. Still depleted.

So I started researching, and what I discovered changed everything.

Most oral magnesium supplements—especially the cheaper ones—are poorly absorbed.

Here’s what happens when you take a pill:

  • Stomach acid breaks down a significant portion before your body can use it.
  • The small amount that remains has to compete with other nutrients in your digestive tract.
  • Many supplements use magnesium oxide, one of the least absorbable forms available.

This not only leads to poor results—it can also cause bloating, cramps, or digestive discomfort. No wonder so many women feel worse, not better.

A Better Way: Transdermal Magnesium

Once I learned that your skin is one of the most intelligent absorption pathways in your body, everything changed.

I stopped swallowing magnesium and started applying it directly to my skin.

It’s called Ease Magnesium Spray—and it’s been a game-changer.

Here’s how it works:

You spray it onto your arms, legs, stomach, or back—anywhere you feel tension.
Your skin absorbs the magnesium chloride directly into your bloodstream.
There’s no digestion, no loss, no interference.
It goes where it’s needed—fast.

You feel it quickly.
A gentle calm. A deeper sleep. Muscles that finally release.
And a nervous system that gets the chance to exhale.

This isn’t about masking symptoms.
It’s about restoring something your body was always meant to have.

This Isn’t New. It’s Ancient.

Our ancestors soaked in magnesium-rich waters. They walked barefoot on mineral-rich ground. They lived in rhythm with nature.

We’ve stepped away from that—and it shows.

Using magnesium transdermally is simply bringing that ancient wisdom into modern life.

And the best part? It’s easy.

A few sprays a day is all it takes.

No pills. No harsh side effects. Just gentle, natural support where your body needs it most.

If you’ve been feeling off—tired, tense, anxious, inflamed—despite doing everything right, I want you to consider this:

Your body may not be broken.
It may just be missing a mineral it was designed to thrive with.
And restoring it might be simpler than you think.

You don’t need to overhaul your routine.
You just need the right tools—and the right support.

This is where I started.
And it’s why I use Ease Magnesium every single day.

Because feeling calm, rested, and strong isn’t a luxury—it’s your birthright.

You were made to feel vibrant.
You were made to feel whole.
And your body knows exactly how to get there—once it has what it needs.
