0:00.0	All right, everybody. Hello, this is Chris Gethen here. Welcome to another episode of the Knowledge and MyLish podcast.
0:07.0	And today I have a very special guest that I've wanted to get on the show for quite a while now.
0:11.0	And this person has quite an awesome bodybuilding career.
0:16.0	And the last time I saw him compete was back in the UK. I've seen him compete over here in Las Vegas at the Mr. Olympia
0:23.8	and his last show being, what was the last show, John?
0:29.2	What was it?
0:30.0	March 2011 when it came second.
0:34.2	That's it, at the body power.
0:35.9	So it's John Hodgson that I've got on the other end of the line here.
0:40.3	Thank you very much for coming on to the show, John.

0:49.8	What is the one thing that I'm likely to be deficient in?

1:04.2	it's estimated at up to 80% of the population may be deficient. But here's the problem. Most of the supplements only contain
1:14.1	one or two forms of magnesium when there are at least seven that your body needs and benefits from.
1:21.6	But there's good news because there is a supplement that has seven critical forms of magnesium. It's from bioptimizers,
1:29.5	of course. Bioptimizers is one of the supplements that I've been taken for years and years.
1:34.0	I take their magnesium. I take their digestive enzyme. I take their probiotic. But we're talking
1:40.9	magnesium today. And you can get it 20% off specifically for all my knowledge and mileage listeners.
1:49.0	All you've got to do is go to www.
1:51.6	M-W-W-D-M-B-R-B-R-E-T-H-R-O-U-G-H dot com forward slash Chris.
