I proved this brand effective, but elderly family member reviews say that it does not digest, goes right through the system. I stopped using that brand. I have used for many years, and found, during menses years that it prevented leg cramps if used in connection with magnesium. It also seems to reduce body aches, enables better sleep, especially this brand, since it contains B-6.Read More Read Less
