"I love this product - it helps me sleep, and taken daily keeps my ankles from swelling due to water retention. when i began taking it I started with a level teaspoon and increased the dosage gradually over a weeks time. If you take a larger dose (say - about 3 tsp.) at the beginning it may give you loose stools so I found the best way to use it was to start with a small dosage and increase gradually. I wouldn't be without this product."

"I've been using Natural Calm for the last few years and find it very effective in two ways. First of all when I take it at night before retiring, I have a good night's sleep. It also helps maintain regular elimination each morning. Two great benefits from one great product!!"

"This pure magnesium product is easy to take in small amount of water. We take it with cool water to taste, and it is lemony, like weak lemonade. Even my picky grandkids like it!"

"Over the years I have tried many forms of magnesium, with no results or unpleasant results. For instance, magnesium oxide makes me sick. Several years ago, a nutritional counselor told me about Calm and it has met my needs ever since, including adrenal health information that calcium and magnesium ought not be taken together."

"I had seen this product several times while looking for other types of magnesium but when it was recommended by another source to help with digestive problems I decided to give it a try.
Not only did it help with my acid reflux and constipation, but also with my insomnia.

My health care practitioner was very impressed with this product and I will never be without it."

"I am currently nursing my 4-month old. When I don't have enough magnesium in my diet, my son has an AWFUL time falling asleep. When I take Natural Calm every day, it's a world of difference -- for both of us! The magnesium helps your body absorb calcium, which highly aids in falling asleep. I highly recommend to everyone, but from my perspective, especially nursing mothers. (This also helped me sleep when I was pregnant.)"

"I have tried this product before and didn't think it worked. Finally I kept taking 3 teaspoons in hot water all through the day until it worked. Now I'm on a maintenance of an average of 5 to 6 teaspoons (three twice a day) along with to cups of fiber drink. Works wonderfully and normally.

I've had chronic constipation all my life, and my doctors always laughed or made light of my situation. My chiropractor at Big Springs, TX, Dr. Warren, stressed the importance of this product and gave me a detailed pamphlet to read. Boy, am I glad for his advice - and so-o-o relieved!

Most people won't try enough!"

"This is a great product for loosening tense muscles in your back and neck. Just be careful not to take too much or you will be running to the bathroom the next day. I would start with one teaspoon at night mixed in hot water so it will dissolve, then increase up to three teaspoons if you can tolerate that much."

"I have to admit that I do not like the UNflavored Calm as much as the sweet lemon or raspberry-lemon flavored Calm. Although I have always bought the raspberry-lemon, I chose the unflavored to try because it does not have added Stevia. I was not educated on Stevia, but have since learned that it is a NATURAL sweetener found in an herb. Additionally, stevia actually has health benefits as well. SO, about the unflavored calm. It is not too bad and we are drinking it and will use it. Another benefit to the unflavored Calm is that you can add it to your green tea and get benefits of both at the same time. However, if given a choice, since I like to drink my Calm at bedtime, I will go back to the yummy raspberry-lemon with my next order. Even our teen girls are drinking the plain Calm, but prefer the raspberry-lemon."
