When I first advise my patients to stop flossing, they usually look at me like I’m crazy—it’s been ingrained in their minds that flossing is essential to their health. Unfortunately, most dentists’ advice around flossing is misguided. However, when it comes to removing bacteria from deep under your gums, floss is subpar at best.

Your indoor greenery can probably survive without fertilizer (as long as it gets adequate water and sunlight), but adding it can help plants really thrive. “In general, nitrogen is the be-all and end-all of nutrients,” Jonathan Russell-Anelli, Ph.D., a senior lecturer in Cornell’s School of Integrative Plant Science, tells mbg. “It is generally the most limiting, and it is needed in abundance and is often needed quickly.

Here, dietitians and nutrition experts share the basics of magnesium absorption and explain how long the supplement typically stays in the body—and what that means about when to take it. A large portion of the population in Western countries2 does not get enough magnesium from food alone, hence why dietary supplements have utility and have also become so popular3. “It’s estimated that 43% of U.S. adults4 currently fail to meet their daily magnesium needs through diet alone, which is over 100 million adults, to put this nutrient gap in perspective,” Ferira expounds....
