What people actually say

“I've tried various forms of magnesium over the past year including threonate, glycinate, citrate, oxide, and taurate. They all give the same negative side effects.”

“I was taking crappy magnesium oxide supplements for years with basically no effect, besides diarrhea if I took too much magnesium oxide. Magnesium oxide has basically no bioavailability.”

“If it's oxide, which has 4-5% bioavailability, will probably do nothing for you like it does for me.”

“Oxide has shit bioavailability but that didn't bother unless I too ka fairly large dose, it's basically a diuretic.”

“I feel emotionally blunted when I take magnesium during the day, but it's great at night.”

“I'm taking 250mg of magnesium oxide twice daily to see if it could help with my depression/anxiety/fatigue combo. Well, it has.”

“I have tried magnesium oxide and citrate and react fine to both, but neither seem great for sleep.”

“I also taken Magnesium Oxide but it was horrible, messed up my bowel movement and it didn't have any effect on my sleep at all.”

“I had heart palpitations for 20 years and just recently started taking magnesium oxide about 4 months ago. Life changing.”

“I was previously taking magnesium oxide but that gave me runny shits on the daily, but I kept taking it because it completely stopped my migraines.”

“Magnesium Oxide kept me up all night! A friend told me to take it before bed for better absorption but it wired me.”

“The first night I took it I slept so deep and long it was like I was drugged...My mood lifts every time, I get more energy, negative intrusive thoughts go quiet”

“No magnesium helps for sleep. I tried magnesium citrate, magnesium oxide, magnesium glycinate”

“I've never had any negative side effects from it (ie gut distress, diarrhea etc), that only happens when you use Oxide and maybe Citrate”

“I tried magnesium oxide 500mg (first) which made me feel like ass”

“malate is a much better option for me (though stil gives me some energy, just not the panic/sense of dread that glycinate does)”

“Malate and bisglycinate have worked best for me as they are more energizing and bioavailable forms.”

“Magnesium malate seems to work the best for me...Malate improves energy production in mitochondria.”

“Magnesium malate gives me slightly more energy and very relaxed soft muscles.”

“Magnesium malate is the energizing kind of mag, glycinate I would only take in the evening for better sleep (which will give you more energy in a roundabout way).”

“I have cautiously started magnesium malate in the morning and this time I don't get the abrupt awakenings but my hrv is pushed very lov and my pulse is significantly increased.”

“I've taken magnesium malate off and on, and epsom salt baths, although never really noticed any difference.”

“It's my favorite supplement. I get anxiety if I don't keep up with it. I take Magnesium Malate.”

“I suffered from chronic fatigue and started taking 300 mg elemental magnesium as magnesium malate...After 2 weeks, I improved significantly and after 4 weeks my brain fog was completely gone.”

“Also helps me knock out a bit quicker w my cbd lotion at night bc I'm usually sore from the gym.”

“magnesium malate... Helps with my sugar cravings... Seems to help with muscle recovery.”

“I actually feel like the magnesium malate gives me a nice energy boost ta-boot!”

“I take 3,000mg of Magnesium Malate an hour or 2 before bed and sleep like a log now. No drowsiness when I wake up.”

“I like magnesium malate. I ran out recently and used my glycinate for a few weeks while waiting. I had noticeably less energy during the day.”

“Magnesium Malate has completely helped my fatigue during the day. I was falling asleep every single day at 1-3pm and knocking out. It's been night and day for me.”

“I switched to Malate in the day time, and then taking a citrate drink at night (natural calm). It seems to be working since I do feel better.”

“My fiancé had some pretty bad PSSD similar to what you’ve described, and it’s worked for her.”

“The rest that I've tried hasn't helped me at all or even made me feel anything, good or bad.”

“I previously tried ginkgo but I didn't like how I felt after taking it.”

“I feel great, and my thoughts are fast and verbal fluency is great.”

“I take ginkgo every day ... I've never noticed any acute increase in latency from GB”
