90% of Your Serotonin Is in Your Gut — And It Could Be Why You're Constipated (opens the original)
Read excerpt
#324 You've probably heard serotonin called "the happy chemical." But over 90% of the serotonin in your body isn't made in your brain at all — it's made in your gut, and it does a completely different job there.

But once you understand what actually happens to it in your body, there's a compelling reason I don't reach for it first with my clients. In this episode, I walk through the real mechanism behind how magnesium moves your bowels, what the research actually shows about magnesium oxide's effectiveness, and why its conversion process
