Natural Vitality Calm, Magnesium Citrate & Calcium Supplement, Drink Mix Powder Supports a Healthy Response to Stress, Gluten Free, Vegan, & Non-GMO, Original, 16 oz

It works for - moms nighttime leg cramps; daddies, 85 yr old stiff muscles, and my constipation (which is one of many optional symptoms of Parkinson's disease ). Also have used for many years for fibromyalgia leg pain and stiffness. It's supposed to calm one's nerves, but I get pretty uptight when I forget to order it in time and end up running out. (That's humor, not true) There are many types of magnesium Including the most Commonly used is magnesium sulfate - Epson salts Which taste horrible and has slightly different uses. This Natural Vitality Calm, Magnesium Citrate Is processed for a much milder flavor, and high absorption in the body. Calm Magnesium Citrate Supplement has very good flavored varieties that go well with Juice. If you wait a little while after mixing it becomes clear. Depending on the flavor It can be a nice ingredient for many adult beverages. Go light on it as an ingredient for family juice or adult beverages. As it says on the label you have the your personal proper dosage when you have loose stools. Magnesium Citrates are good for you In the Calm brand Seems to have high absorption and excellent benefit.

I’ve used Calm for a year and then ran out and didn’t replace right away. I like the unflavored powder to mix with warm water and I add a half teaspoon of honey to drink my “Calm tea” before bedtime. I noticed I didn’t sleep well without it but could only find the capsules at Walmart. I tried a bottle of capsules and they were okay, helped me sleep but I think the powder works better. Really helps keep me regular and never gives me the runs. Edit-I’m not sure if I can use this formula with calcium as I seem to be getting stiff joints which only happens when I take calcium. I may have to just go back to the Original Calm without calcium.

I really love this Natural Calm! It works so well! I'm always skeptical about the absorption of supplements depending on where it's derived but this product has exceeded my expectations! It came properly packaged and I drank some right away. We have been drinking their other product for years but decided to try the one with calcium. My whole family drinks this. And it helps each and every one of us! My youngest, 6 years old, drinks half a teaspoon to a full teaspoon to stay regular and it helps her calm down (she is borderline ADHD). My son who is 8 and has aspergers and SPD, as well as many anxieties was my main focus when buying this. It truly has helped him remain calm during family functions, going to the store where he might be overwhelmed by anything sensory, and at home where he lets it all out. He used to dread changes in plans, or when things didn't go how he planned. Now he is slowly and surely becoming okay with small changes. He has made some drastic changes! Now I work with my son and he attends Occupational Therapy weekly. By the time his last 6 month on/off therapy sessions were compleye, he was a whole new boy and the therapists even commented that he was now acting VERY neurotypical and it was hard to even tell he was diagnosed with high functioning autism/asbergers. It helps all of us sleep at night. It personally helps relieve my severe anxiety and helps me get out of my house and socialize more. It's not a miracle product, I know it sounds like it in my review, but I think that simply giving our magnesium deficit bodies what they require will cause some things to be alleviated, as it should be!

I was looking for a Magnesium supplement to help with constipation and leg cramping. Natural Calm was recommended by many people, so I ordered the 16 ounce size in the unflavored variety, thinking I could mix it in with whatever beverage I was drinking at the time. First, let me say that the product did what it was intended to do in regards to the constipation and leg cramping. Now, here come the buts... The packaging (I have included a photo) is useless when trying to use the scoop provided with the product. As you can see from the picture, the scoop is only half as long as the container is deep and the two inch opening doesn't allow you to fit more the a thumb and finger in to try and get to the product. Not to mention, finding the scoop when you first get the product. It may be unflavored, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't have a flavor...it is somewhat sweet, has a fruity taste and is not very palatable on it's own. So, as a heads up...don't put it in your coffee! The recommended dosage is 3 teaspoons, however the scoop that comes with the product is not labeled in teaspoons, so becomes somewhat unusable if you are attempting to create the correct dosage. Though the product did what it was intended to do, the problems with the packaging and the flavor have led me to take a pill form supplement.

We have a drink of this at night to allay muscle cramps and sleep interruption. For acute problems, here's an interesting thing: when my nerves reacted badly to a death in the family (felt drained of all energy, feeling a significant sense of emptiness - both probably what a psychiatric manual would call severe depression), I incorporated a dose of it with my noon meal and I felt back to being myself in a couple of days of the new noon dose regimen. It's great to think that we don't have to take a drug to accomplish this. I recently read that Magnesium is one of the most common deficiencies in the modern diet. Interesting! How many people complain about having trouble getting quality sleep? This is a total nutritional alternative to sleeping pills, powerful herbs like valerian and cannabis, because rather than merely masking a symptom of a nutritional deficiency, your body's nerves get the minerals they need to function. I love how easily this dissolves in warm or hot water. Very palatable, we prefer this plain unflavored formula to same brand's berry and lemon flavor. So it's not horrible to chug down, if you like fewer ingredients.

This stuff is the bomb! I have had IBS/ Spastic Colon for over 20 years. Then I also have Fibromyalgia and PTSD. Between the two, and all the medications I was once on my " plumbing" has been all messed up. My digestive system interprets stress as being anything from bending and stretching, pushing the vacuum, or pushing a grocery cart. On any given day of my digestive systems choosing, doing any one of these things will have me in the bathroom for two days. I desperately needed help with this issue as I no longer use prescription medications. This has worked great for both my husband and myself. I started out with half the dosage on the instructions and worked my way up. My sleep is sound and so is my husbands which is just short of a miracle. I can tell you I haven't slept soundly enough to dream much in the last 12 years but I am able to enter into Rhem Sleep now. Because of his previous career, my husband tends to be hypervigilent and he also has Chronic Fatigue Syndrome so he tends to sleep a lot, but his sleep is not refreshing. He is actually sleeping more deeply at night now. We are on our second jar and order them two at a time. I admit I was a little hesitant as this product has a lot of good ratings and I am always reading about how people give reviews in exchange for a free trial, or a discount. This is not the case for us. We bought it, we've tried it, it works for us and I now buy it monthly for my daughter who was just diagnosed with Fibromyalgia.

It is so healthy and relaxing takes away late cramps

I have taken Natural Calm off and on for years. I dont take it for its calming effect, but rather to stay regular. It truly is a pregnant mama's dream! It keeps me regular without cramps or bloating when taken with food, and I know it's safe for my baby. I take it at night after dinner and typically go the next morning. Now, it is a bit difficult to get down because it is incredibly sour. I don't know how anyone could calmly sip a whole mug of it. Here's what I do: I put the 3 teaspoons in a cup and add a very small amount of water, no more than 1/4 cup, let it fizz, and shoot it down with a chaser. For me, it works wonders and I love how it works. The raspberry lemonade is a pretty good flavor, though I still shoot it down, but I find the unflavored to be easier to handle long term.
