Kirsteen Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 I know Whole30 recommends taking magnesium in the form of Natural Calm. However it's very difficult to find over here. I can get it on Amazon but it's working out at $65 for 16oz which, frankly, is beyond me. I have Now products magnesium citrate. It has absolutely no nasties in it. Melissa says to take magnesium immediately before bed, yet the Now label says to take it with a meal. Obviously I'm not going to eat immediately before bed, so is it worth taking the magnesium citrate at all and, if so, when should I take it.

Moderators Tom Denham Posted October 15, 2012 Moderators Share Posted October 15, 2012 Wow! Natural Calm is a bit less than $25 in the US for 16 ounces. Like you, I take the package directions seriously, but I found other sources that advised taking magnesium citrate with a full glass of water on an empty stomach. Given my experience with Natural Calm, I think you would be safe taking magnesium citrate before bed with a glass of water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bernadette Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Can you take this with herbal tea instead of just water. I dont' care for the taste. Or could I add a lemon slice to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirsteen Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 Ok I'll give it a try before bed, thanks Tom. Yes a lot of stuff you get there is extortionate over here and if I order direct from the USA I have to pay the shipping plus pay customs 20% of the price including shipping plus over $16 to my local post office for the privilege of making the payment. i have to really want something to do that.
