Tired, wired, and not sleeping properly?
Magnesium deficiency is one of the most common — and most overlooked — nutritional shortfalls in the UK. Modern diets, stress, caffeine, alcohol, and even intensive exercise all deplete it.
And because the symptoms are so general — fatigue, poor sleep, muscle cramps, anxiety, low mood — most people don't connect them to a single missing mineral.
The good news: fixing it is usually straightforward. Magnesium Citrate is one of the most absorbable forms available. And at just 22p per day, it's one of the highest-return health decisions you can make.
You might be low in magnesium if...
✦ You do a lot of exercise
✦ You wake tired despite a full night's sleep
✦ You experience muscle cramps or restless legs at night
✦ You feel anxious or on edge without obvious cause
✦ Your energy crashes in the afternoon
✦ You struggle to switch off before bed
✦ You're under a lot of stress — at work or at home
Any of these sound familiar? Magnesium is almost certainly worth trying.
Why Citrate — not Oxide or Chloride?
Not all magnesium is absorbed equally. Magnesium Oxide — the cheapest and most commonly used form — has poor bioavailability.
Much of it passes through without being absorbed at all. Magnesium Citrate is bound to citric acid, which significantly improves absorption in the gut.
The citrate molecule itself enters the body's energy pathways directly, supporting both magnesium replenishment and energy production simultaneously.
This is the form I choose for this formula. Because the most affordable supplement is one that actually works.

-
Many people prefer to take it in the evening, 30–60 minutes before bed — it supports the nervous system's transition into rest and can improve sleep quality noticeably. That said, it can be taken at any time with food.
-
Most people notice improvements in sleep quality within the first 1–2 weeks. Muscle cramps and energy levels typically improve within 2–4 weeks of consistent use.
-
Yes — and this is Laura's recommended pairing. Magnesium supports gut motility during a cleanse and helps with the sleep disruption some people notice in the first week of Para-Detox. The two products complement each other directly.
-
The recommended daily intake for magnesium is 270–300mg for adults in the UK. At 1–2 capsules daily, this supplement contributes meaningfully toward that target alongside dietary sources. If you have a significant deficiency, taking 2 capsules daily is appropriate.
