A member asked:
Is it ok to take magnesium every night to improve sleep? i'm thinking of taking 200 mg as a supplement. any side effects?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Taking magnesium is unlikely to affect your sleep or health in general. If you are eating a mixed diet, you are not deficient in magnesium. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
