Over 60 These 2 Vitamins Work Better Than Magnesium to Rebuild Muscle Barbara O’Neill

Many older adults do everything right. They exercise consistently. They eat enough protein. They take their daily supplements faithfully. Yet their strength continues to fade. Their muscles feel weaker. Everyday tasks feel heavier. The frustration becomes overwhelming. In this twenty eight minute presentation, Dr. Barbara O Neal explains why magnesium is not the solution most people believe it to be. Despite years of marketing and health advice, magnesium is not among the top factors for rebuilding lean muscle during aging. This talk reveals a critical truth most people never learn. More than seventy percent of muscle repair happens during sleep. If your body does not receive the right nutrients at the correct nighttime window, muscle recovery simply does not occur, no matter how hard you exercise. Dr. Barbara O Neal explains the two essential nighttime nutrients that activate muscle repair, support hormones, reduce inflammation, and allow protein to be converted into real strength while you sleep. She also exposes three common supplements that silently sabotage muscle growth when taken at night. This is not about exercising harder or taking more supplements. It is about timing, biology, and finally understanding how the aging body actually rebuilds muscle. Subscribe to Older Insight for science based guidance on strength, independence, and healthy aging.
