Natural
Magnesium Supplementation
for Restless Legs Syndrome
Oral magnesium taken in the evening to reduce RLS symptoms and improve sleep quality, particularly useful in those with low magnesium status.
How it works
Magnesium is a natural NMDA receptor antagonist and calcium channel blocker, reducing neuronal excitability in sensorimotor pathways implicated in RLS. Also supports dopamine neurotransmission.
What to watch for
Magnesium glycinate, threonate, or citrate are preferred over oxide (poorly absorbed). Start with 200–300mg at night. Avoid if kidney impairment.
