It’s been about 6 months and I DEFINITLEY notice a big difference when I don’t take my magnesium… like a huge difference. When we were moving I didn’t take it for a while and was feeling so anxious and then I literally unpacked the bottle and was like “oh- that’s my problem.”
I’ve been adding in epsom salt baths and also made these gummies and this body butter as a way to get more magnesium without having to always take the supplement. The body butter is so luscious and it makes my skin feel awesome and it smells like chocolate 🙂 I put it on my son’s feet a few nights a week too.
I’m also now taking this a couple days a week. I love it. Once I use up all the Natural Calm I have I’ll probably switch totally over to the TriLight. I love that it gets me my blue green algae too which is great for the thyroid (speaking of thyroid- mine was WAY out of whack for a while and I thought I was going to have to go back onto a synthetic hormone but I’ve balanced it back out with a good diet!! Praise God!).
Here’s where I’m at with symptoms: The black was where I was at when I first started taking magnesium and the pink is where I was a week later. The purple is where I am now.
