Magnesium supplementation for insomnia in elderly subjects
Magnesium significantly improved sleep efficiency, sleep time, sleep onset latency, and morning serum cortisol vs placebo.
Magnesium is involved in over 300 enzyme reactions and is one of the most-deficient nutrients globally. Glycinate is the most-evidenced form for sleep, stress, and long-term repletion.
Magnesium significantly improved sleep efficiency, sleep time, sleep onset latency, and morning serum cortisol vs placebo.
Subjective anxiety improvements were consistently observed across magnesium supplementation trials, especially in subjects with low baseline status.
Each 100 mg/day increase in magnesium intake reduced type 2 diabetes risk by 15%.

We prioritize randomised controlled trials and meta-analyses over single observational studies. Animal and in-vitro data are listed as "mechanistic", they suggest direction, not human effect size.
We don't cherry-pick favourable studies, omit conflicting evidence, or cite industry-funded trials without flagging the conflict of interest where known.
The research is one thing, what to take, at what dose, paired with what, is another. We compose stacks that turn the evidence into a daily routine.
