PER CURIAM.

Tenna M. Potter appeals the district court's judgment affirming the Social Security Commissioner's decision to deny Potter's applications for disability insurance benefits and supplemental security income. Having reviewed the record and the parties' briefs, we conclude substantial evidence supports the Commissioner's decision that Potter is not disabled for Social Security purposes. Because an opinion by this court would not have precedential value, we affirm for the reasons stated in the magistrate judge's recommendation adopted by the district court without further discussion. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
