I have fibromyalgia, depression and sleep apena with difficulty falling and staying asleep. I have found a and was told by a specialitst that you need to start with a small dose of magnesium once a day (ie: 250 mg) for a few days and then increase it to twice a day. Gradually increase the doses until you reach the peak of diarrhea; then back the dosing down until it subsides. Stay on that does a...

Magnesium helps with sleeping at night. It doesn't make it easy but it makes it possible.

Leg and foot cramps were keeping me awake at night. I tried everything. Even pickle juice and yellow mustard. The pickle juice helped for a while, but the cramps were becoming more frequent. I found out about the magnesium. I've been taking 200 mg per day to start and happy to report that it has been working. Since I'm not getting the cramps at night anymore I sleep for 4 hours straight now - and feeling so much better!

I sometimes get very strong leg cramps while sleeping. Magnesium is very useful in avoiding this or, if I forget to take the magnesium, taking it when I get the cramp calms it very quickly.

I developed heart arrythmiasin the months following my son's passing, then about a year later went into A-fib and was treated in hospital. I researched supplements/adjunctive therapy for this, started taking Magnesium Oxide at nighttime, was still having heart arrythimias, but not A-fib again. Then in further research found that the best absorbed form is Magnesium Citrate, not as easy to find but did find it at Rite-Aid. So I take 500mg Mag Citrate at bedtime, significantly lea palpitations/arrhythmias. Hope this helps someone else.Read More Read Less

It has been less than a month, and I think it is helping. At this point, it could be wishful thinking. It will take a little longer to be sure.

Palpitations and Arrythmia for no apparent reason. I am generally healthy and heart all ok. After months I decided to take Magnesium although cardiologist told me it was not relevant. It worked after a few weeks and symptoms are gone! All I could find in the developing country I'm living in is Magnesium Oxide 500mg/day and I see that there are different qualities on the market.

I had frequent migraines for over 20 years...3-5/ month. I began taking MagOx400 daily and this totally ended my migraines...except when I ran out of MagOx. I've read other posts that reported stomach/bowel issues but that is an issue with Mag CITRATE. DO NOT TAKE MAG CITRATE. Another poster had exactly opposite but this is wrong. Mag Citrate is used before colonoscopy so it will most assuredly cause diarrhea. Instead, use MagOx400 which is Mag Oxide. They are a bit chalky and can be tough to swallow but are DEFINITELY worth a try. You're welcome!Read More Read Less

1 150 mg Magnesium Citrate capsule has drastically and consistently reduced my blood pressure. The only problem is that it is not producing a long term effect. It lasts for couple of hours or so. I did not record times and my high and low pressures because I just saw this possibility to report my findings and answered spontaneously.

I had leg and hand cramps that were so bad they woke me up in the middle of the night, I read that magnesium could help this. I took a 250 pill and that night I had no symptoms. it worked for me.

Because of Spinal Stenosis I was suffering from severe leg cramping everyday(sometimes in excess of 2hrs.). I started taking magnesium lactate three times a day and I have not any leg cramping since. It is a wonderful supplement.
