Magnesium for Sleep: Miracle or Myth? 💤 Is magnesium the secret to a better night’s sleep? Dr. Zoe Schaedel breaks it down in this video. While there’s some evidence suggesting that magnesium supplements might help—especially for those deficient—it’s not a guaranteed fix. For most people with a balanced diet, magnesium levels are likely just fine. And even for those taking supplements, the studies show only small improvements (think 15 minutes more sleep a night!). As with any supplement, it’s about what works for you personally, not a one-size-fits-all solution. Have you tried magnesium for sleep?
