I'm taking 340mg a day... And now i've bought a transdermal spray. Each spray is about 18mg, so I'm taking 3 sprays. Just a wee treat to myself...

Funny what my 'treats' consist of these days!!!

I’ve got a spray that you can use in your mouth, it’s feels more rapid than oral or transdermal x

[CrispyChick]

Oh, I take all my vits like that Marchlove. Love them, and they really seemed to get my levels up 👍

I'm sure I looked for an oral spray in magnesium, but thought they were all skin sprays...

Hi ladies please could I ask which brand of magnesium glycinate or citrate you all use?

[Postmeno3]

Solgar! (Citrate) 👍

[CrispyChick]

Viridian high strength. 300mg

Magnesium (oxide, citrate and bisglycinate)

[pinkmarshmallow]

Out of interest, does anybody use Holland & Barratt Magnesium Citrate 300mg?

Hi,  Has anyone had their magnesium levels checked before they started taking a supplement?  I have been suffering terrible palpitations and read magnesium was really good for this.  I had a blood test to check my levels and the doctor has told me that my levels are normal so I don't need a supplement.  I was actually disappointed as I thought this might be my answer.
 Just wondered even if this was the case if an extra dose might help.

Get a copy of the test and see if you are at the very top of the range, this is where you need to be.
That aside the test is not that accurate as it’s testing what’s in the blood, not what’s in the cells.
No harm in you trying it xx

Just wanted to say that I've been taking magnesium glycinate now since I read this post and I've slept every night since,also my VERY low mood has gone,so many thanks,long may it continue xx

[Marchlove]

Wow, there’s a result! So pleased for you xx

[jaypo]

Thank you my lovely,not sure if it's mind over matter or it REALLY is the magnesium but the reviews I read on it are all very positive,so fingers crossed

[holidaylover]

Good news jaypo.  Can I ask what time of day do you take your supplement?

[jaypo]

I was taking one in the evening then after 3 days,I upped it to one am and pm,it says to up them again to 3 a day but I'm sticking with the two as they seem to be working brilliantly 

[holidaylover]

Thanks jaypo, I'm going to start taking them tonight.  Didn't want to take at breakfast and then need a morning nap!!
