Thank you so much for this video. You are the first person I have found who really goes into the specifics of magnesium. I am going to watch your night sweats video now. I suspect that my insulin is messy and I wake up at about 3 - 4 almost every night. The small of my back, the back of my neck, and sometimes my arms are very hot and sweaty. I turn over and throw off the covers, cool off, and then go back to sleep. Sometimes this happens several times but usually only around 4. It's rare that I sleep through the night. I literally celebrate when I do!

Right @Eddie Lopez , that is the whole point of this video. Magnesium for sleep is popular because it helps a lot of people sleep. People who are dealing with either low mineral levels or an anabolic imbalance like I talk about in this video. But if you continue to do that, you have the ability to push your body out of it's natural circadian rhythm. You really want to look at your body chemistry and know where you are so you can work with your body instead of against it. Not to mention, if you need magnesium to sleep, the body is dealing with problems that are keeping it from working optimally. You can learn how to do that in our free digestion course here: kickitnaturally.com/course Let us know how it goes.

Glad you found it works for you. I have high end of normal levels of magnesium from my blood panel, as well as a catabolic imbalance from long hours running a small business and fairly intense strength training 5 days a week, and taking magnesium right before bed absolutely ravages my sleep and makes my insomnia noticeably worse, it's terrible. His video explains all this, magnesium can be good or bad based on individual biology/lifestyle/diet.

Here is an AI breakdown of the content of this video: the concept of anabolism in relation to sleep and magnesium. Anabolism refers to the phase in which the body is primarily focused on repair, rebuilding, and rest. During sleep, the body enters an anabolic state, where it performs essential functions like tissue repair, cell regeneration, and hormone production. The text suggests that some individuals may experience an imbalance in their anabolic state, leaning too far towards an anabolic state or being overly catabolic (the phase focused on energy production and tissue breakdown). This imbalance can lead to sleep problems. In the case of individuals with an anabolic imbalance, the text explains that magnesium supplementation may help by not only elevating mineral levels but also by assisting in shifting the body out of an excessively anabolic state. This shift can help regulate insulin processing and prevent the sudden drop of mineral and glucose levels during sleep, which might trigger the body to wake up. Conversely, individuals who are already overly catabolic (in an awake phase) might experience difficulties sleeping if they take magnesium, as magnesium is considered a pro-catabolic mineral. In this case, magnesium supplementation could further enhance the catabolic state and disrupt sleep. Overall, the text emphasizes the importance of understanding one's unique physiology and balancing the body's circadian rhythm. It suggests considering individual imbalances, monitoring the effects of magnesium supplementation, and adjusting the timing and dosage accordingly.

What part of his advice? Not taking it before bed? I went from taking 375mg + in the last half of the day to 250mg before lunch and slept through the night better than I ever have (sleep tracking on my watch). Intuitively I feel like a lot of sleep issues have to do with hypotension (low blood pressure) more than anything else, but reducing and moving magnesium to the 1st half of the day where cortisol and catabolic state is usually higher, definitely seems to be helping get back to a normal circadian rhythm.

As far as sleep though...I was initially taking it just before bed, thinking it would 'make me sleepy'...but now I take it just after dinner (5 or 6 hours before I go to bed) and it doesn't seem to 'make me sleepy' any earlier, but I do sleep just as well. Perhaps taking it earlier in the evening will allow for more restful sleep and then you won't be as groggy in the morning.

HI @Xena Burg, when magnesium makes someone's sleep 10X worse, like I talked about in this video, it's almost always because the person is already too catabolic so the magnesium just magnifies that problem. When I was an insomniac, it was because I was too catabolic too. This video will show you how to figure out if you're leaning too catabolic or not. If that is the problem, and you fix it, you will likely correct the insomnia issue: kzread.info/dash/bejne/lJyNyrdrj6-5lrA.html Let us know how it goes.

So maybe better options would be to add potassium before sleep?

Only if the person is leaning too catabolic. If they are having sleep troubles caused by an anabolic imbalance, postassium would make things much worse. It's about looking at the person. Not the symptom.

I got concerned about the quality of my sleep after buying a smart watch. I realized I never got any deep sleep. I have played around with all sorts of supplements. So far magnesium and taurine taken an hour before I go to bed gives me better quality sleep . More deep sleep and more REM Sleep. I can feel the difference.

The catabolic thing is me. After trying pretty much every form of Mag for years, I've given up. It just didn't do anything for me, and I couldn't figure out why. Racing mind, RLS, 3am insomnia, I had it all. Now that I know I have slow methylation, I know I need to clear dopamine and adrenaline from the brain at night. GABA is way better at that than Mag, and my sleep seems to be better so far. Thanks for the great video!

Hi Sive, those spasms are often related to a need for more magnesium, but it can be a need for other minerals or a need to stop pulling all the minerals out of where they need to be. But moving your magnesium to the morning is a great first step. You would then want to check your body chemistry to see how much magnesium is appropriate for you, and also if other minerals in general appear to be low. We teach how to do this with simple tools at home in our totally free digestion course found here: kickitnaturally.com/course Let us know how it goes.

@@KickItNaturally Hello! So I write the results of my conditions. 6 weeks of magnesium was not enough to stop panic attacks. But it changed hand spasms, instead panic started to come from my shoulders to arms as if cold water flowing and numbness. So it is better feeling than spasms. I added low dose Lexapro medication for a quick solution to attacks by psychiatrist. Magnesium + Lexapro, taking in the morning, solved my insomnia about %50. I will check my body chemistry during this time and hopefully come off the medication after a while. My mother chose to take magnesium at night although I said the opposite, but she didn't feel it is right after weeks, so now she prefers to take in the morning. Magnesium solved my mother's restless leg syndrome quickly. Thank you for your videos. 🙏
