Default Great results with Magnesium

For what it's worth in the area of anecdotal evidence, Magnesium is a supplement that I felt immediate results from taking! I felt dramatically better and with more energy!

I take magnesium at bedtime since it's best to take it away from food.

My understanding is that it is best absorbed in a combo formula....that plain magnesium oxide alone is not as effective, for example. It should mix some forms ending in -ide and some ending in -ate.

I do not take calcium except for what is in foods and in my multivitamin.

When I took calcium, I lost the effects of feeling good with magnesium totally.

From what I've read....magnesium is just as important, if not more so, than calcium is, for your bones. Magnesium helps calcium be absorbed.


I don't take a lot of magnesium, just 1 or 2 capsules, of 200-400 mg each, at bedtime.

Helps me sleep better too!
