In reply to Magnesium in the morning causing my tiredness?, posted by hok on February 11, 2003, at 16:51:12
> For the last year, I've taken 250 mg of magnesium in the morning along with my meds and other vitamins. Anybody notice if this has made you tired if taken during the day? It definitely helps with muscle tension and fatigue but I think it might be making me too relaxed. I guess the easy answer would be to just take it in the PM but it's been great as a natural anxiety fighter for stress during the day.

I don't know if you're being sedated by the magnesium, but maybe you should try it at night instead.
