February 13, 2009 Reviewer: Maureen in New York |
| I use Natural Calm because I have Restless Leg Syndrome. I stir about 1 rounded teaspoon in a half cup of hot water. It fizzes until it's done dissolving. Then I add some more water to cool it down. I drink this when I am ready to go to sleep. I fall asleep easily within 15 minutes and my restless leg problem is not a problem as long as I use Natural Calm. |

| This is good stuff! Magnesium can be difficult to take as a supplement (I have some magnesium malate tablets and they are huge). Having the magnesium in liquid form makes it a lot easier to get down higher quantities (which is what most people need, given most people are deficient in magnesium, and it takes months to replenish the body's supply). Magnesium citrate is one of the chelated forms recommended by the doctors who wrote "Protein Power Lifeplan" (chelated form is easier to assimilate). The flavor of the "plain" Natural Calm is tart, basically a lemon flavor, and the more you take, the more intense it gets (duh) so I have to tone down the flavor some with a flavored syrup or diet soda. It would probably also be good with tea, if you like lemon-flavored tea. It seems to me, though, that taking it as a liquid seems to somewhat lessen the laxative effect (although certainly not eliminate it - er, no pun intended). Taking the full dose of 3 tsp is definitely something you need to work up to gradually! It's worth it, though ... to my surprise, I found my overall appetite for food decreased when I started taking the full dosage. I guess a lot of my appetite was actually a craving for magnesium. One caution - you probably don't want to take magnesium at the same time as you are taking dairy or any high-calcium food or supplement, because calcium can block magnesium absorption. |

| I have taken Natural Calm for years for chronic constipation. After back surgery I found that it controlled severe muscle spasm (charlie horse) in a leg with nerve damage. This past year I had chemotherapy and my oncologist told me I was her only patient who did not develop chronically depleted magnesium levels and she would be recommending Natural Calm from now on for her chemo patients (who also develop chronic constipation while on chemo). What a product! |

| This has a nice mild flavor. I drink it each night to relax before bed...helps me sleep better & keeps me "regular". It's a win/win. |

| Tastes great and really helps my digestion along with anxiety. Used this before a colon cleanse and saw dramatic results. |
