NATURELO Magnesium Glycinate Chelate Complex - 200 mg Magnesium with Organic Vegetables to Support Sleep, Calm, Muscle Cramp & Stress Relief â€" Gluten Free, Non GMO - 120 Capsules

JUST AWESOME ðŸ'ðŸ¾

I almost NEVER write reviews, but this supplement is MOST DEFINITELY worth it! I've taken several magnesium supplements (including a brand given to me by my wellness practitioner) and this BY FAR is THEE absolute best!!!!! Dear Manufacturer, please DO NOT change your formula for this magnesium supplement! I will FOREVER purchase this now â€˜holy grail' product in my house. The product does everything it says it does. I take 2 capsules before bed and notice that my anxiety and feeling of stress is significantly lowered to the point I easily fall asleep into a deep sleep. I feel amazingly refreshed in the morning. It also helped me with my shoulder/neck muscle cramps from stress. GREAT PRODUCT! ðŸ'ðŸ

Buffered w/ magnesium oxide – causes diarrhea

I've been taking magnesium glycinate for 3 years, for severe anxiety. It was recommended by a doctor to try, as I am nervous about medications. It worked well for me, so I continued. I've been taking pure encapsulations brand since the beginning, but Amazon is out of stock, so I decided to try this brand, feeling good about the added veggie components and that each capsule has 200mg, as opposed to most other brands that have 100-120mg. I thought it was odd that this one was 200mg, but only now after researching, do I understand why... more on that in a minute. I had a few of my old capsules left, so I decided to work my way into the new ones and added them in first one, then two per day. Suddenly two days ago (1 day into taking it), about an hour after taking one, I suddenly got stomach cramps and had to run to the bathroom with diarrhea. I honestly thought it was what I ate. I've continued having loose stools for the last two days, with an uncomfortable feeling in my bowels. I thought it was something I ate, or my anxiety. Yesterday and this morning, I could feel my anxiety roaring back and wondered if this supplement might not be as effective as pure encapsulations, perhaps not as “pure”. I went to look at the Amazon reviews and under the 1 star are quite a few people talking about diarrhea! It suddenly dawned on me that bathroom troubles probably have nothing to do with what I ate, it's the darn supplement! THEN I started scouring every word of the Amazon listing when I saw it says, at the bottom of the listing under ingredients, BUFFERED magnesium glycinate. What does that mean? (It doesn't say that on the bottle, but supplements aren't regulated and they can really say whatever they want in the label.) After googling BUFFERED, there it is... it's mixed with magnesium OXIDE! That causes diarrhea, will cause the mg per capsule to be higher (200mg vs 120mg), and magnesium oxide is barely absorbable by the body. It all gets pooped out via diarrhea. No wonder my anxiety is roaring back and I'm running to the bathroom. I do not recommend this product

More restful sleep

I initially ordered this product for another issue, but I found that it made a significant difference to my quality of sleep. I can now get a full night's sleep, and that's something I have been robbed of for the past couple of years. I take one capsule after dinner with a little liquid, and that's it. If you don't get the required 7-8 hours of shut-eye at night, I would highly recommend you give this product a try. I will definitely reorder once the supply is nearing low levels

Critical for health – every single person needs to take Mg consistently!

The benefits of Magnesium are many! Almost everyone is deficient in Mg. This brand comes from a food source which makes it superior. Benefits include bone health, bone formation, calcium absorption, preventing osteoporosis, diabetes, heart health, prevention of migraine headaches, reduces PMS, relieves anxiety, helps improve focus for ADHD, helps lower blood pressure. I could go on and on. I'm sure you need some Mg. in your life. Take it consistently

The best natural magnesium supplement so far!

I'm a big fan of Naturelo and I love their approach to magnesium with this formula. The company has chosen to use the glycinate form of magnesium, a highly bioavailable and digestible form of the mineral delivered with a magnesium-rich plants blend of organic spinach leaf, organic Swiss chard leaf, organic okra leaf, and more. 200mg of magnesium is delivered in one single capsule alone, so you don't have to worry about taking three or four capsules to get an optimal serving of the mineral. The vegetable cellulose capsule also means that additives and fillers are absent from the supplement, only leaving the active ingredients that are fully absorbed and utilized by the body. I do recommend giving this form of magnesium a try. You're getting this essential mineral in one of the most natural and bioavailable forms with a small plants blend of magnesium-rich foods, too. On a side note, I always take magnesium around or before bedtime. It is also best to take it two hours apart from any other supplements or medications so that it won't interfere with them. (Along with calcium, magnesium is a big mineral that can block your absorption of anything else taken alongside it!) According to the renowned Dr. Low Dog, "Government surveys show that roughly 50 percent of us don't get the recommended daily allowance (RDA: 320 mg/day for women, 420 mg/day men). In addition, certain medications, such as diuretics and proton pump inhibitors (e.g., Prilosec, Nexium) can wipe out magnesium. This is all really bad news, since low magnesium intakes are associated with high blood pressure, sudden cardiac death, type 2-diabetes, insulin resistance, migraines, osteoporosis, and asthma." It is clear that we need to supplement with this essential mineral for optimal health and well-being

Gentle to the metabolism

The main thing about this version is its favourable digestive gastro-intestinal effects. Many of the versions of Magnesium have a laxative effect. This one does not. I do also seem to be sleeping more calmly with this magnesium. (It is taken right before bedtime.) I've heard doctors say the citrate version is typically at a15-20% absorption rate, which is obviously pretty low. On the other side, doctors say the glycinate form of magnesium is one of the most absorbable. Here's a brief statement from a health site on the web: "Magnesium glycinate (magnesium bound with glycine, a non-essential amino acid) is one of the most bioavailable and absorbable forms of magnesium, and also the least likely to induce diarrhea. It is the safest option for correcting a long-term deficiency." I agree with that statement. Even still, finding the right producer is not straightforward. I have bought other brands that did not perform as advertised. I'm very particular about getting the right sources for supplements. I give this brand an A- for reasonable cost and having a non-laxative effect. If this company did a lab analysis and told us exactly what its product's absorption rate was as a percentage and if that percentage were at or beyond the 50% mark, I'd give this product an A . Experts believe the body only absorbs 50% from supplements in the best-case scenario. It would be good for supplement producers across the spectrum to start telling their customer base how well their specific product can be expected to be absorbed by an average consumer in good health based on reliable lab results. What I do know about this product is that it is gentle on the digestive system and has a calming effect for sleep. How well it's absorbed would be great to know. The average male should get 440-440 mg of magnesium a day, but actually, to be more specific, the consensus is that people should get 6 milligrams per kilogram (2.2 pounds). I weigh 220 pounds (or 100 kilograms) so I should get 600 milligrams of magnesium per day. Each of the capsules for this brand is 200 mg. I take 3 capsules each day (or 600 mg). As mentioned above, I won't get the full 600 milligrams absorbed into my body. I am relying on my diet to make up the difference. This product is well-priced for the amount per capsule. Pay attention to the amount per capsule because it directly determines the bottom-line cost

Anxiety vanished overnight

Edit: I did stop taking this supplement as after taking it for several months along with other multivitamin, I started to experience heart palpitations. Maybe too much magnesium? After fully stopping all supplements the heart palpitations toned down (I has having an extra beat and what felt like a very intense heartbeat). Stress also probably played a factor. This thing cured my anxiety. I read somewhere about doctors recommending this supplement for anxiety and depression, and I decided to give it a try, not expecting much at all. I took a pill before bed and the next morning my brain felt... different. I could tell the anxiety trying to creep in but it was like I was physically unable to feel anxious. I have been taking a pill daily before bed for a couple of months now (I have not yet taken two in a single day, I'm 5'4” and 110lbs). I don't think I will stop taking it if I can help it. For insomnia I take L-theanine and melatonin (both are over the counter supplements)

No added junk ingredients? No more!

I search high and low for supplements without added junk fillers. I had this Naturelo Magnesium on my subscribe and save orders because it did not contain anything but the vitamin it was supposed to have. To my surprise in my May order I received my magnesium and happened to glance at the ingredients after I had opened the bottle. It now has Rice Flour, and Rice Bran extract added to the supplement as you can see in the pictures. I would have returned this item if I had seen this before opening. Needless to say, I am really disappointed in this company as they were one of my favorite. I have canceled my subscribe and save order for Magnesium, and now will be on the hunt for another one without added unnecessary ingredients

UNEXPECTED BENEFIT – STIMULATES PRODUCTION OF STOMACH ACID.

Thanks to the fact that my system seems to produce little or no stomach acid, I take quite a few HCl (Hydochloric Acid) with every meal and have done so for over ten years. Although they have been a lifesaver it gets very tiring to never be able to eat a meal without so many capsules. No one seems to know how to stimulate the system into producing more. Read that zinc help and so it does - but only for a few days then the level gradually begins to drop again. Why? Who knows? I bought this brand of magnesium only because I prefer all natural supplements as far as possible.Took one in the morning along with the zinc and went about my day - until I ate a snack which I had to throw up because of too much acid. My stomach was as sour as all get out. Long story short - I have very thankfully cut my HCL intake by more than a third thanks to these magnesium capsules and zinc. Also be warned that the symptoms of low stomach acid are often the same as too much acid. However, most doctors know little or nothing about low acid and will cheerfully trot out prescriptions for Prilosec etc. thereby worsening the situation

OMG LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE!

I recently learned that I have sciatic pain that eminate down my left leg. After speaking with my holistic doctor, he recommended that I try a magnesium supplement. I did a lot of reviewing of various supplements on Amazon and came across this brand. Also, since I was taking this brands multivitamin and really love it, I decided to try. After taking the first dose for the fist time, the sciatic pain was gone! I take one capsule three times per day - with breakfast, lunch and dinner - and I don't have any pain at all! I recommended this brand to my aunt, who have been living with sciatic pain for years and she called me a week and a half after trying the vitamins and said that for the first time in many many years she is able to sleep and not wake due to the pain. These are the real deal! Good job manufacturer ðŸ'ðŸ
