Fast-acting powdered form of magnesium with delicious lemon flavor! Promotes healthy blood flow and relaxation! How Does NSI® Magnesium Citrate with Potassium Lemon Flavor Work? NSI® Magnesium Citrate with Potassium is a delicious, lemon-flavored powdered form of the mineral magnesium. Magnesium is significant in a number of bodily functions, including maintenance of bones and teeth, nerve transmission, heartbeat regulation, insulin use and energy production. Magnesium also has many different "calming" effects on the body:. It relaxes muscles that control blood pressure, allowing blood to flow smoothly and helping to inhibit clots that lead to cardiovascular issues. It helps bronchial muscles to relax, encouraging expansion of the lungs and better breathing. It relaxes uterine muscles and may help with women's monthly discomfort by lessening pain associated with cramping. It promotes healthy blood flow to the brain. When taken with calcium, it promotes proper contraction and relaxation of muscles, enhancing workouts and possibly reducing pain associated with sports injuries. Symptoms of deficiency include fatigue, headaches, backaches, muscle/body tension, difficulty sleeping, irritability, nervousness, and more. Muscle spasms, cramps and jerks are also indications of magnesium deficiency and may decrease with supplementation. Magnesium may have a mild laxative effect (it is often included as an ingredient, in citrate form, in laxative products) and can be used to promote regularity and colon health. Follow instructions on bottle to determine the right amount for you. NSI® Magnesium Citrate is water-soluble, meaning it dissolves easily and is quickly absorbed by the body, delivering its effects faster than solid doses. Its light, delicious lemon flavor makes this supplement pleasant to take, whether mixed it into a glass of water with ice, or blended into smoothies, shakes or other preferred beverages. NSI® Magnesium Citrate with Potassium Lemon Flavor is better because it:. Is more quickly absorbed by the body than capsules or tablets! Delivers 615 mg of magnesium per serving! Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them. 05307-D01AA

"This product tastes and works okay, but it does NOT dissolve well at all, so I much prefer the name brand. I do not like chalky taste/texture, and it takes much longer to dissolve even in super hot/boiling water, whereas the other product I have used dissolved immediately with no grains left, in hot tap water. That said, if the cost difference is a huge factor for you buy it. But I won't buy it again."

"It works..but it was way too salty. I prefer the Naturally Calm by Peter Gillham. They are both equally effective in helping me relax at the end of the day and getting some good sleep. Does anyone know why they add the sodium. Seems more like an electrolyte thing to me."

"Having used Peter Gilham's Calm for quite some time, this product seemed like a less expensive alternative. We gave it a try but it turned out to be too gritty, leaving undissolved powder at the bottom of the cup. This was never a problem with Peter Gilham's formula, but I understand that, in addition to magnesium, there are also some additional ingredients in this formula.
It is hard to say whether or not this product is better or worse than Peter Gilham's, but we prefer Peter Gilham's Calm to this NSI brand. You may wish to give it a try to see for yourself. It is not intolerable; it has a pleasant flavor but it's just different than what we are used to drinking."

NOT THE SAME,June 2, 2009
By dlh2from Salt Lake City
"Do not make the mistake I did. This product is nowhere near the same as Peter Gilliam's Calm. It does not dissolve as well, it is loaded with sodium and has added potassium. Further it does not work like the Peter Gilliam's either! So sorry I bought it."

"NSI Natural Magnesium Calm Lemon -- 16 oz is similar to the CALM brand - however it is "gritty" and leaves a bit of an aftertaste, you really have to keep stirring it as you drink it or it settles. When I prepare to repurchase, I will NOT purchase this brand."

"Being a health care professional with numerous years of experience with digestion and nutrition; I must admit, we are desperately depleted in magnesium. When taking enough, our bodies operate so much better. It helps keep us calm, maintains proper electrical functions of the heart, keeps blood pressure under control, helps boost energy through-out the body, and helps keep bones strong. And it goes without saying that if you're getting enough, you won't need senna or exlax. Easy to make, mix it with your favorite drink, absorbs well, and, when mixed with a few prunes, your digestive requirements will be maintained."

"I have used Peter Gilham's Natural Calm for several years and thought I would try this product as it is one half the price of what I was paying. I was disappointed to the extent that I reordered the Natural Calm I had been using. The product is too heavy and has other additives besides magnesium. It is like swallowing some heavy chalk substance."

"I was surprised when I was disappointed by a NSI product. I only used it once, the salt taste was too much to swallow, and I poured out all most all of the product. Too much salt. I thought I read enough information on the label but did not catch how much salt was in it to taste so bad."

"This is an acceptable supplement and has a nice flavor. It seems to be less potent than the name brand. I thought the nice large container would last longer than the smaller name brand one, but it didn't. Hot water must be added to this supplement which makes it inconvenient for me, and it does not mix completely. I like the nutrient formulation very well, though. The name brand only has Magnesium, or has Calcium and other nutrients added. I will likely purchase this product again, simply because I like the formulation. It isn't as good a deal as I had originally hoped for, though."

"I have been using the more expensive brand for a couple of years and wanted to try the NSI for the price. The taste is good, but there is a chalky residue which did not bother me too much. I had to use more of this product to get the same results from the other brand, so it negates the lower cost."

"Why not spend a couple more bucks and get the 20 year researched Peter Gillham's Natural Calm? This one didn't dissolve as well and I can't figure out why sodium and potassium are added. Potassium has potential stimulatory effects for certain individuals and can negate w/falling and staying asleep. Also potassium's job is to remove sodium from the cells so I don't understand the added sodium. This seems contradictory for lowering one's BP."
