Magnesium is an essential mineral involved in over 300 enzymatic
processes in the body. It plays a key role in maintaining proper muscle function, nerve function, and mental health. Insufficient magnesium levels can contribute to conditions like insomnia, anxiety, and muscle tension.
Different formulations and dosing:

Magnesium L-Threonate increases the magnesium level in the brain and improves cognitive functioning.
Magnesium citrate- 300 to 400 mg/day
Magnesium glycinate or L-Threonate - 600mg/day in divided doses
