Micronutrients & recovery
Vitamin D and Magnesium are critical 'survival/longevity' vitamins, and their widespread deficiency in the US population contributes significantly to chronic disease and accelerated aging.
Ensure adequate Vitamin D (via sun, diet, or supplementation) and Magnesium (via leafy greens, nuts, seeds, or supplementation). These are foundational for long-term health and may be more critical than standard guidelines suggest.
