Hormonal & Metabolic Impact

🧬 Magnesium → Testosterone, Cortisol (16% DV)

Reduces SHBG → more free T. Lowers cortisol by suppressing ACTH. Required for vitamin D activation (which also supports T).

🧬 Fiber → Estrogen, Insulin (35% DV)

Binds excess estrogen in gut for excretion (enterohepatic circulation interruption). Slows glucose absorption → lower insulin spikes.

🧬 Sugar → Insulin, Cortisol (96% DV)

Rapid blood sugar spikes → insulin surges → cellular insulin resistance over time. High sugar intake correlates with elevated cortisol.
