What the research shows.

Double-blind, placebo-controlled RCT of 46 elderly subjects with insomnia. Magnesium supplementation (500 mg/day) for 8 weeks significantly increased sleep time, sleep efficiency, and serum melatonin, while reducing sleep onset latency and serum cortisol (all p<0.05) versus placebo.Abbasi et al., Journal of Research in Medical Sciences, 2012
Systematic review and meta-analysis of 12 RCTs (n=1,249) examining magnesium supplementation for blood pressure. Magnesium (mean 368 mg/day) for a median of 3 months reduced systolic BP by 2.00 mmHg and diastolic BP by 1.78 mmHg versus placebo, supporting its role as an enzymatic cofactor in cardiovascular regulation.Zhang et al., Hypertension, 2016
