Magnesium is a mineral that is critical for energy production and metabolism, muscle contraction, nerve impulse transmission, and bone mineralization. It is a required cofactor for an estimated 300 enzymes. Among the reactions catalyzed by these enzymes are fatty acid synthesis, protein synthesis, and glucose metabolism. Magnesium status is also important for regulation of calcium balance through its effects on the parathyroid gland.

Remember that one of the reasons we get leg cramps is the lack of magnesium, as well as sometimes head aches , with this pills plus epson salts bath we are sure to get the necessary amount of magnesium in our system?
Cheers to health!

It’s okay. I use magnesium to help keep me regular. I used to always use the CALM magnesium powder before bed but didn’t want to drink that much fluid before bed so I figured I would try these. My mom had some solgar brand magnesium citrate and that works great for me. I will be switching to that brand.

I take 400mg every evening and it usually prevents leg cramps and keeps the bowels moving regularly. I have had great experiences with several NOW products and this is no exception. I also find it easier to take in the capsule formula. These are large pills and the tablets are more difficult to get down.

I have always loved this product. however prime normally puts them outside my door. After receiving your notice of delivery, I did observe my pachage not even after a sweepibg search in my yard. I happen to check the mail box, late that night and found my pakage.. In the last 6 months, there has been allot of stealing in our area, I did not apprecite my package being tossed in the mail box. Great product, but poor service if delivering

SolÃa tener un sueño pésimo, dormÃa en promedio 8-10 horas y me levantaba super agotado, habÃa dÃas donde no podÃa conciliar el sueño y en esos momentos consumà pastillas para dormir, pero aun asà mi sueño profundo era pésimo, de horas, 7 horas y 40 minutos eran de sueño lijero y 20 minutos de sueño profundo (el sueño que si ayuda a descansar)
luego vi que la combinación de Citrato de Potasio y Magnesio podÃa ayudarme, y me decidà por esta marca luego de ver y leer muchos comentarios, y para mi fue todo una mejorÃa desde el primer dÃa de uso, solo tomo para dormir 1 capsula de Citrato de Magnesio y 2 de Citrato de Potasio y ahora duermo de 6 a 8 horas y con un sueño profundo de +- 2 horas (es increÃble) me levanto como relojito sin ese cansancio antes mencionado.
Para medir mi sueño uso una Xiaomi mi Band 5 (no es 100% exacto, pero para su precio logra por mucho lo que necesito) en las imágenes pueden notar como desde el dia 21 mi sueño mejoro muchÃsimo (lo amarillo de despierto es por que hace muchÃsima calor estos dÃas es insoportable)

Seems to be helping my system go back to almost normal after just a few weeks taking one a day with my one meal I eat every day. Says take with food three times a day but, I only eat once a day. Works with just the one so, great.
Will buy again. Recommend.

I take a medication that “sweeps” magnesium from my system. I’ve gone through quite a few magnesium citrate products with no improvement. I didn’t conduct a well structured test – this is just one person saying the product worked for me. Magnesium levels up, leg cramps gone, sleep improved.
Linda from Virginia –
I notice some people asking about the size of these capsules. Well, I got them down the first two nights, finally, but I could not get it down the past two nights. I have wasted my money. Anyone who says they are not large is lying. They are exactly 1 1/16″ long and 3/8″ wide, a problem. Yes, they are horse pills!
Nisse –
Not happy with these. There’s 3 pills in a serving, making the bottle 40 servings instead of the 120 number you see written on the front. But that’s ok if it worked well. It doesn’t seem to work as effectively as other brands and formulations of magnesium I’ve been using. I generally love the Now brand and their products, but this one I’m tempted to send back
Lils Reyes –
Seems like good quality. My only complaint so far, is that I have to drink 3 pills a day to get 400 mg of magnesium. I wish the serving size was just one pill. Between working at home, caring for my toddler, caring for the house duties, and everything else, it’s hard to remember to drink 3. But I’ll try, and I’ll keep the bottle next to me on the dining table. I really want my sleep to improve as I wake up at 3 am sometimes.

These help relax muscles and no more muscle cramps at night

I purchased this supplement to help me use the bathroom as I struggle with this while low-carb dieting. However, I noticed a big reduction in anxiety, I had no idea this was a potential effect.
I take it before bed as I have read it can promote relaxation and I don’t want to be tired during the day. I take 3 caps with a glass of water right before bed.
Tiffany –
This supplement is amazing for the price!! I started taking it when I suffered from anxiety and not only did it heal me of that, but it also helps aid my digestion and sleep. It is a supplement that will always be in my house!

I have mixed feelings about this supplement. I have migraine and hashimoto disease. Because of this, my doctor suggested I take a combination of additional supplements to support my thyroid and to provide migraine prevention and Magnesium Citrate was one of them. With so many vitamin companies out there, it is difficult to tell which products are authentic so I purchased a subscription to a lab company that tests product ingredients, potency claims and heavy metals. I trust this lab because they do not accept advertising. This product was approved for all it claimed (see pic) so I chose to purchase this. Unfortunately, like many people, I didn’t notice I needed 3 capsules to equal the recommended 400 MG daily. However, when I looked around at other approved supplements, most do not contain the “citrate” version of magnesium that my doctor specifically recommended and if they do contain citrate, they are either not approved by the lab or they also require multiple capsules to get the dose. The best alternative I could find was a 2 capsule requirement for the dose and it was less expensive per dose. It’s too late to return this Now product so I will finish it and reconsider my options.
In the meantime, this product is clearly working for me. I take at night and my morning constitutionals have become more regular, which has been a great side effect.
Update: I didn’t want to take three capsules per day so I switched to another brand so I could reduce to two daily. Unfortunately, the other brand’s tablets were enormous. They were easily the largest supplement tablet I’ve ever taken. They looked like I was taking a 1/2 stick of chalk. So I decided to switch back to these so I don’t worry about putting my life in danger just by the act of swallowing the pill. Turns out the grass was not greener.

Love them. I take three every night before bed. Magnesium citrate has changed my life.. literally. Sleep better.. no more muscle spasms in my tail bone region, and I poop every day. It’s great.

These are the best magnesium pills for woman. Especially if you suffer from insomnia, anxiety, or depression. Fast acting and easy to take.

I’ve had migraines for years. These really help cut them down. I went from 1-2 a week to 3-4 per year! Crazy, huh?
Ann M. Menke –
I do feel they help w.sleep and leg cramps. 1 at night does help w.morning regularity but 2 seems to be too strong for me as i am a small person. Capsules were rather large.
Lezli Regis –
The dosage is 3 per day so be aware. If you’ve not taken magnesium before ease into it or you’ll have gastrointestinal issues.
Deb –
My neurologist recommended Mg Citrate to address migraine, fibromyalgia, and other issues. I prefer the gel caps to these capsules. I am currently having a lot of facial tics, which should be controlled by my dosage.
Sophie Latimore –
Great product which helped with muscles and sleep, but I can’t tolerate this form of magnesium. It causes bowel trouble…
Jane Jacobs –
When I don’t take these, I can always tell. They have a host of benefits including decreased fatigue during the day and better sleep at night. Highly recommend.

I used this product for hypothyroidism. I had leg cramps at night (one of many symptoms) and this seemed to take them away immediately. The one day I didn’t take it, I got a leg cramp again.

I purchased the Magnesium Citrate, 400 Milligram for the issue I was having with feet/leg cramps that would literally wake me up and keep me up no matter what I tried. I have been taking the mag. citrate now for about 3 months. It took about two weeks for the mag. citrate to get into my system fully; once it did, I have not had any real cramp issue.

Helped me with heart palpitations, and better sleep, and overall relaxation!

Had cancer surgery and needed something to grease the intestinal wheels as it were. The liquid version of this is very effective but has a hideous taste. Like drinking acid with lemon juice. It works without the urgency of the liquid but has given a surprising boost to my mental and physical alertness. I don’t know why but I’ve made no other changes to my diet. Perhaps when one gets older unexpected things like magnesium deficiencies sneak up on you. Who knows. But it does fulfill it’s primary mission of kick starting the gut.

I use this for my LPR reflux issues. Zinc Carnosine, D Limonene, Mastic Gum, and DGL/Slippery Elm have all helped out. Especially the D limonene and Zinc Carnosine. If you have reflux, GERD, LPR. Try them. They may make your life better.
