Magnesium's role in sleep apnea
We aimed to uncover the relationship between magnesium levels and sleep quality, particularly focusing on sleep apnea. Our study analyzed data from a large group of adults aged 20 and older, using a well-structured method to assess magnesium levels and the prevalence of sleep issues.

We found a notable connection between lower magnesium levels, measured as the magnesium depletion score (MDS), and the likelihood of experiencing sleep apnea. Specifically, individuals with higher MDS levels were significantly more likely to report sleep apnea, showing over three times the odds compared to those with adequate magnesium levels.

Interestingly, our research did not link magnesium deficiency to other sleep problems like insomnia or restless legs syndrome, suggesting a more complex relationship with sleep apnea alone. Additionally, we noticed that older adults with depressive symptoms showed a tendency toward excessive sleep rather than insufficient sleep.

While our findings highlight the association between magnesium deficiency and sleep apnea, they also point towards the potential of adequate magnesium intake in reducing this risk. This emphasizes the importance of maintaining proper magnesium levels for better sleep quality, especially in those at higher risk for sleep apnea.

Better sleep achieved

This slow-release magnesium has transformed my sleep. For years, I averaged only 2–4 hours a night, despite trying everything including magnesium. After taking this product, my sleep quality has improved remarkably. It's an incredible feeling—almost back to normal!

I take these capsules at night. Although they are large, they’re easy to swallow. I've noticed a positive effect—I'm sleeping better and no longer waking during the night. I feel more composed and less irritable overall. It's unfortunate that this can't be taken continuously.

Improved sleep quality

I experienced fatigue at work, leading to disturbed sleep and a poor mood. Since taking magnesium before bed, I've felt a significant improvement. My sleep quality has enhanced, allowing me to rise more easily in the morning. This product has made a noticeable difference.

Calmer during PMS
2 people found this helpful
I've recently begun taking magnesium, having heard about its benefits for stress relief. While it hasn't entirely resolved my work-related stress, I've found it helps me feel much calmer and less emotional, especially during PMS. The primary benefit for me has been improved sleep; I nearly collapse into slumber after taking it, and I wake less frequently at night.

This product is fantastic; it's my third repurchase. I take one capsule daily, and after finishing the first bottle, I feel emotionally stable, my body is more relaxed, and my sleep quality has greatly improved. The capsule packaging is absorbed better than lozenges.

Enhanced sleep onset

This product has improved my sleep quality. Despite having mild insomnia, it sometimes took me an hour and a half to fall asleep. Now, I can drift off within 30 minutes in bed. I hope this effect lasts.

Sleep after delay
7 people found this helpful
If there's a significant magnesium deficiency, immediate effects shouldn't be expected. My mother took the capsules for a month without improvement in her sleep. After a month’s break, she took the capsules again and found that she could fall asleep peacefully after about an hour. Previously, she would only manage five hours of sleep and often experienced panic attacks. I'm pleased that magnesium has been beneficial for her!
