I was told to take 400 - 500 mg of Magnesium a day but not with carbonate since it can cause constipation. Yes magnesium can help with sleep. I have had insomnia since my earl 30’s and was on Xanax and Temasapan. I wanted off both . Now I take a CBD for sleep and it does help.

Shaylyn4, I could not find any information about magnesium carbonate, any level of doses, that cause constipation. I have taken it in much higher doses and it doesn't cause 💩for me.
Where did you find it?
I know that magnesium glycinate is sold in stores for constipation. I really don't like the taste of it and I never know when it will kick in, 24-48 hrs for me. It is so bloating and then super explosive. From what I've read the very best of any supplements that have several different types, is the chelated form. This is a mixture of all the types. I have not tried it, I think it is really expensive, not sure though. Maybe I will check it out. Enjoy your weekend Shelley
