Jarrow Formulas MagMind - 90 Capsules - Includes Magnesium L-Threonate (Magtein) - Supports Brain Health & Function - 30 Servings

I have been using Jarrow Formula supplements for a number of years, especially the Vitamin B12 - methylcobalamin and Vitamin K2 - MK7 supplements. I have been impressed with their continuing development of new *effective* products at a great price point.My husband and I have been taking approximately a gram a day of supplement Magnesium (cheaper products) for almost 5 years now. In that time we have cured his former type 2 diabetes (after almost a 2 decade battle with medicated fasting BGs in the 500s at one point!) and we have almost completely reversed his hypertension of many years as well has have turned his end stage Severe Congestive Heart Failure around so he's relatively free of symptoms. I credit not only the magnesium, but also high doses of Vitamin D (ALWAYS taken with magnesium and fish oil!!), a whole foods source multi, the Sinatra Protocols for supplements as found in the back of The Sinatra Solution: Metabolic Cardiology and a number of minerals especially trace minerals as found in Liqumins ConcenTrace Trace Mineral Drops, Low Sodium, 8-Ounce Bottle.I was looking into research on magnesium and the brain when I ran into the MIT study published in 2010 showing magnesium L-threonate is the only form of magnesium to cross the blood-brain barrier and showed observable improvements in cognitive measures. Interesting. So we bought a bottle at our local neighborhood nutrition shop after a discussion with the owner, a couple I have come to trust during our many battles with the medical establishment.Jarrow Formulas of magnesium L-threonate as Magmind is a very cost-effective source. To further economize we are still taking our regular magnesium supplement 3 times a day (750 mg) then taking this form of magnesium as part of our bed time routine (replacing the 4th magnesium of the day). I am genuinely impressed. Our sleep has improved yet another notch, which is saying something since the 5 years of magnesium supplementation meant we already had really good sleep quality. What I have noticed is that after multiple head trauma injuries (including a serious concussion earlier this year) my previously very high level of spatial relations was slipping. Now with Jarrow I feel I'm getting that edge back. I am very impressed. I will update again with further results after we've been taking this formula longer.2015 UPDATE - in the years since we first tried MagMind I've referred hundreds of people to try this quality supplement with great results. We've since learned to couple magnesium with taurine for even greater results. Taurine is VERY well documented to improve the fluidity of electrolytes within the cells including within the brain.NOVEMBER 2016 UPDATE:Well, here we are 4 years later. We still personally use and recommend MagMind. What we discovered though, since he was put on Armour Thyroid by our primary care he no longer seems to be "leaking" magnesium hence we've cut magnesium supplementation waaayy back. Plus we soak in epsom salts far more. Magnesium is still vital however we're no longer "taking a gram a day."

Ordered this from Metro Manila, Philippines and received it from the US six days after! I’ve been using this product for close to a year now since it was recommended by my functional doctor to improve my sleep without using hormones. It has worked for me. I’m so glad I can get this at a friendlier price than where I usually get it. Please maintain your price or keep it low for those who are sleep challenged like me.

This was recommended to me by a specialist. It's helped with my sleep without side effects.

great product - My bottle was crushed and its pills. defective shipping

The big issue with magnesium: we need it, yet for most of us it causes intolerable side effects.ReMag:I started on ReMag (a liquid Mg) years ago. Dr. Dean's book sold me on taking Mg and it's helped. I did try a Mg pill supplement then and sure enough, major abdominal pain. But with ReMag I was able to get off of Rx anti acid reflux medication. Her ReMag liquid worked great without pain. BUT it ended up being more inconvenient than I would ever have realized. It's hard to remember to slowly dose throughout the day (I had timers going) and you can't carry a drink to some places. Even worse, if I missed it, got too much at once, or didn't get enough in EVERY day, my body would let me know in bad ways.Jarrow:Finally Jarrow solved this and I can take magnesium pills without the huge inconveniences mentioned. I decided to try it out and was able to smoothly transfer over to Jarrow without much issue. And absolutely NO side effects like the typical abdominal pain of other products.I cannot recommend this product enough if you're looking for a magnesium supplement without side effects or like me you use ReMag but can't stand the the high maintenance of it.It is helpful to know that if your body is magnesium depleted, starting on Mg may cause weird side effects like an anxiety attack. It's not the fault of the Mg product, it's due to having too little Mg for too long and the body needs time to adjust to getting it. Vitamin D is the same way. And being on anti acid reflux medication results in low Mg & D.Dr. Dean's book thankfully explains all this.

This was prescribed by my doctor. What a change in my brain and mind. I also feel calmer. I take one every night and will make this part of my supplement list for forever
