MegaFood Relax + Calm Magnesium Complex, Grape, 30 Soft Chews

I am 45, but have been experiencing Perimenopause symptoms for about 2 years. I have other health issues, so I just assumed that those were side effects of my other conditions. But as the symptoms began to become more hormone specific, I realized that they were due to Perimenopause. I started following Dr. Mary Claire Haver on Instagram, and what a God send! She’s full of so much helpful information, and can really help Women navigate the often overwhelming journey of Menopause.One thing that she often speaks about is low Magnesium levels in a Menopausal body. Migraines, body aches, various cramps/pains throughout the body, extreme mood swings, severe fatigue, unregulated sleep cycles, etc. There are sooo many things that can go wrong when Magnesium is not sufficient in the body. So I decided to start having my Magnesium levels checked at 3 month intervals, over the last 9 months. Every time it was checked, the numbers kept getting lower and lower. I have a very strong background in working with herbs and supplements, so I immediately looked up Megafood to see what they had to offer. I chose the Grape Chews, and I am so happy with the results thus far!I ordered and received these on a Wednesday, and immediately started taking them. The recommended dose is 2 chews, once per day. You can split them up and do 1 in the morning and 1 at night, but I have chosen to take both of them after my evening meal. As I write this review, it is Sunday evening and I have already noticed some good results. A bit of deeper sleep. Not feeling so anxious. Legs definitely not feeling as crampy. As with most supplements, the anticipated timeframe for the full effect to surface is generally around 4-6 weeks, so I am glad to see that my body is already responding well to this supplement. Magnesium can be tricky, because it often causes undesired side effects in the stomach, such as nausea or diarrhea. But I knew with choosing Megafood that this was going to be a really well rounded formula that had minimal to no side effects. I have had some loose stools and a few headaches, but nothing overwhelming or completely bothersome.I honestly cannot say enough good things about Megafood as a company. I thoroughly enjoy the fact that each and every one of their supplements are plant based, made with nature’s pure and whole medicine. No binders. No fillers. Nothing synthetic or phony. They are a truly caring and completely transparent company, that bring you the best of what plant medicine has to offer. You can be rest assured that anything you purchase from them will be a product that will help you attain optimal health. I absolutely recommend these Magnesium chews, and wish you a very happy experience with Megafood!

Helped with sleep

These gummies taste good and are easy to chew and swallow. I alternate days of taking 1 or 2 because if I take 2every day, I am kind of tired from being relaxed so much. Now thats me, so I don't know about others but I really like them.

Easy to chew, not gritty to me, and helps sleep evenly

You know the kind of review that says something like - my doctor declared I had 3 months to live, but I started taking such-and-such supplement and this year I will be competing in the Olympics. That kind of nonsense.Well, this is the second time I think I've actually noticed a difference taking supplements. First was vitamin B12, and then fish oil, and now I notice that I feel better, calmer somewhat taking Magnesium.I looked at my diet and Mg was one of things that was questionable, so I tried a little experiment with these gummies.Maybe I will switch to less expensive tablets because these are quite expensive, but as a test, I think they worked.Things that other people complain about such as the taste ... who takes vitamins for the taste? I don't care about the test, in fact if they taste too good you want to eat them as candy. My delivery had good packaging and everything was in order.I recommend if you check your diet and are borderline on magnesium, try supplementing it.Rated 4/5
