Love Your Gut

Ep. 66: Taking Magnesium but still constipated? Here's why


Listen Later

In this episode, we’re getting real about constipation—the kind that makes you bloated, miserable, and maybe even cry at a restaurant (been there 🙋‍♀️). I’m sharing my most embarrassing gut story, breaking down why fiber and water alone aren’t cutting it, and revealing the three key minerals your gut actually needs to get things moving: magnesium, potassium, and sodium.

We’ll talk about why magnesium alone might not be enough, how low minerals can totally stall digestion, and why HTMA testing is one of my favorite ways to get to the root of stubborn constipation. Plus, you’ll hear what finally helped one client go from backed-up and bloated to regular and relieved.

If you’re tired of guessing and want real answers, this episode is for you. It’s time to ditch the Dr. Pepper remedies and learn how to really support your gut.
