as long as it’s a Hot Wheels car and not a fusilli Jerry, I’d think a (gloved) finger could reach it.

I’m assuming this is hypothetical and not “need answer fast!”, right?

I had a nutritionist put me on what seemed like a ridiculous amount of magnesium as part of a plan help me, um, clean up my act and get my digestion back on track. It worked. I then gradually lowered my dosage and kept eating the cruciferous veggies and learned to stay away from wheat gluten. My body knows when I cheat and eat wheat though so I always keep magnesium on hand now.
