NOW Supplements, Magnesium Citrate 200 mg, Enzyme Function*, Nervous System Support*, 250 Count (Pack of 1)

I’ve been taking NOW Magnesium supplements for a few months now, and I’m genuinely impressed! These capsules are easy to swallow, and I’ve noticed a real difference in my overall wellbeing. My muscle cramps and occasional tension headaches have decreased significantly, and I feel more relaxed throughout the day. I also appreciate the high-quality, non-GMO ingredients—they give me confidence that I’m putting something healthy into my body. Plus, the price is very reasonable for the noticeable results. Highly recommend to anyone looking to support muscle, nerve, and heart health naturally. I’ll definitely be repurchasing!

I subscribe to a third-party testing lab and this was one of their top picks. It contains what it says it does and doesn’t have any contaminants or toxins, and this citrate form is more efficiently absorbed by the body than the cheaper magnesium oxide variety and is a good value for the price. Highly recommended. The only thing I would mention is that these pills are relatively large and shaped such that they are harder than most to swallow, and splitting them doesn’t help much because then there are sharp edges/corners that can get caught on the way down and so are still pretty tough to swallow. So if you have an issue swallowing pills you may want to consider something else, but definitely stick with either the citrate or maybe the glycinate form as both are better absorbed than the typically cheaper magnesium oxide formulas.

****Please note this review is for the powder form of Magnesium Citrate. **** You need this if you suffer from constipation. It works great at keeping you regular. Many people are commenting about a change in quality. I have only used it recently (new mixture) and I have no complaints. No it doesn't 100% dissolve in liquid, but who cares? It works. I'm happy and my overall health has improved (blood sugar, fatigue, insomnia, anxiety). I'm saddened that we aren't told about this by our general practitioners. I needed magnesium years ago I'm sure, but I didn't know. I'm grateful for this product. I'm telling everyone I know about it. Also when you use this the directions say to mix with cold water. I find it hard to drink with water alone. I drink my magnesium with cold juice, orange, lemonade, cherry etc. It's much easier to take that way. Also, the directions says to take 1/2 a tsp. If you have severe constipation, you may need more than that amount to see an effect. Find the amount you need based on your on individual needs/symptoms. I take 3 to 4 teaspoons. Also, the capsule forms did now work for me initially because I think I was so stopped up, but now I love them. The capsules are easier to take because there is no taste. Yes, they are big, but if you can swallow large pills it's not an issue. If you are going to be taking magnesium to have regular bowel movements, you may want to start with the powder to soften/ loosen things up and then continue with the capsules for maintenance. Also, make sure you drink plenty of water. This product (powder and capsules) are life changing for anyone who suffers from chronic constipation.

I started taking this magnesium faithfully and I see the biggest difference. I take before bed and find I sleep better and it has improved my constipation issues.

I first started taking magnesium with calcium and zinc supplement after my doctor's recommendation. I was told the magnesium helps with the absorption of calcium. I later found out magnesium helps keep me regular and gets rid of calf muscle and foot cramps. I've experimented with magnesium carbonate and magnesium oxide but both didn't seem to do anything. The NOW brand magnesium citrate got me results. I'm just amazed at all the different variations - and applications - just for one mineral! There's a lot of conflicting information out there so I just go with how my body responds. The NOW pills are huge as others have mentioned. I only need ONE of these per day and I rush the tablet down with several big gulps of water, with my head tilted slightly back. I must have food in my stomach beforehand or else the pill will give me a terrible stomach ache. Someone else had mentioned the hunger pang feeling after eating this supplement and I've experienced the same. I read somewhere that it's the citric acid in the "citrate" binder that causes an acid burning sensation, so it makes sense it'd be bad on an empty stomach. Taking it after breakfast solves the problem. I'll be trying the magnesium glycinate next since I've already finished the NOW bottle. It's a gentler form and I hope the magnesium glycinate will work to alleviate leg cramps and also curb constipation. If not, I'll just re-order the NOW brand since I know it works for me. Tip on heading off calf cramps: While in bed, stretch the back muscle of the legs by pulling the toes up towards you. When I feel a tightness in the calf muscle, I can block cramps by bending my feet upwards. If I remember to do this exercise regularly, I can minimize the frequency of these painful spasms.

I'm really impressed with this item! From the moment I unboxed it, I could tell it was well-made and designed with the user in mind. Setup was straightforward and quick, which is always a huge plus. In terms of performance, it has consistently exceeded my expectations. It does exactly what it's supposed to do, and it does it reliably and efficiently. I've been using it regularly for a while now, and it still feels as good as new. What I particularly appreciate is its ease of use. The features are intuitive, and I didn't need to consult a manual to figure things out. It truly makes my life easier. Overall, this has been an excellent purchase, and I genuinely feel it offers great value for the price. If you're looking for a dependable and high-quality item that delivers on its promises, you won't be disappointed with this one.

Pill was large, sugary and gave me nausea. I googled the barcode and turns out this product is a knockoff and has lots of bad reviews on the Amazon US website. The product I received had white bottle cap instead of blue, different pill size from the original NOW website and incorrect pill count from the NOW website. Not recommended.

Entrega a tiempo es mi segundo pedido, muy confiable y la marca es de buena calidad, siempre productos originales y con fecha de caducidad clara y perfectamente sellados.

Good
