Description
1 study reviewed
In plain English

In adults with mild sleep trouble, taking 1 gram of nano magnesium chloride daily for two weeks did not cause any side effects and everyone took it as directed.

See the scientific wording

In adults with nonclinical insomnia, daily supplementation with 1 gram of nano magnesium chloride for two weeks was associated with no adverse events and 100% adherence, suggesting it is safe and well-tolerated in this population.

Why this might work

Magnesium enters the brain and blocks overactive brain signals by stopping certain receptors from firing too much, while also boosting calming signals. This reduces stress hormone levels, which quiets the nervous system and makes it easier to fall and stay asleep without causing side effects.
