alt Hacker News> Magnesium supplementation solved my sleep issues.
Which type, if you don't mind my asking? And how long did it take before you felt the benefits? I took it for a month once (forget which type) an hour before bed and nothing changed.

I've tried both Magnesium Glyconate and Magnesium L-Threonate and both have helped my sleep, Magnesium Citrate did very little. Which makes sense, the latter is known to not be absorbed very well.
I've not noticed any significant difference between the other two.

Magnesium Glycinate worked well for me, take it an hour before bed or so. L-Threonate is too expensive, citrate gave me diarrhea.
Much more deep sleep with Glycinate, some folks don’t like it because they feel too groggy after waking.
I find that Magnesium Glycinate works well for me. Magnesium Taurate also works.
