Day 1 taking magnesium glycinate, as suspected it doesn't help sleep. Despite people insisting it'll "knock you out" on first try even.
It's usually people with no sleep problems who share these usel...
So obviously we're all different this is just my experience but I used to have terrible insomnia. I was terrified to sleep. Nothing worked, no supplements or working out or anything. I was waking up from insane nightmares every single night at about 3am.
After years of this a doctor had me wear a continuous glucose monitoring device for a completely separate reason. Turns out my glucose level was dropping to "you will literally die very soon" levels every night at about 3 am. My body would release a surge of adrenaline so I'd get a horrifying nightmare and wake up feeling like I almost died.
Once I worked with a dietician to get the glucose levels more stable and normalized the nightmares went away. Also, all the sleep supplements work very well for me now. I'm having my magnesium calm drink now 🤗
