Magnesium glycinate and magnesium threonate together

Presently, I take magnesium glycinate every evening. It works very well for me to stay asleep. Can I add Mg threonate to my routine to improve my cognitive function or split the dosages? I am a healthy, active, clean 69 year old female. Unfortunately, I take blood pressure and cholesterol medication along with the lowest dosage of an SSRI. Thorougly enjoying following you on your podcasts these past many years! Kind regards.

Is Metformin really effective for longevity?

My doctor gave me a Rx for Metformin. I am a young 68 year-old w/o diabetes. So I'm excited to results and am using Inside Tracker to check. However, my doctor said the recent evidence isn't showing as strong of a benefit as has been touted. Can you address this? Thank you. I appreciate all your content and great work! Also, I'm sharing all your good stuff with my mental health patients! Regards, Wendy Perry LPC

Soy -- Yea or Nay
