Magnesium Citrate Caps
People with a magnesium deficiency may fall asleep easily but only experience a relatively short period of deep, restful sleep. If you are magnesium deficient, you can be trapped in light, non-rejuvenating sleep, tossing and turning throughout the night. When this happens, you wake up exhausted. Also, a magnesium deficiency can cause nervousness that prevents sleep. When you are under stress, you use up a lot of magnesium and B vitamins (see Vitamin B complex), creating a shortage, which contributes to insomnia. Magnesium citrate is a form of this mineral that has been found to be easily absorbed.
A woman who is pregnant or nursing, or who might become pregnant, should consult a health-care practitioner before using this product.
