Magnesium Glycinate for Menopause
(Always check with your doctor — especially if you’re on thyroid meds, blood pressure meds, antidepressants, or have kidney issues.)
⭐ Why Women in Menopause Use Magnesium Glycinate
Magnesium glycinate is one of the best-absorbed, gentlest forms. Benefits can include:
- Better sleep (helps calm the nervous system)
- Reduced anxiety + irritability
- Helps with muscle tension + restless legs
- Supports bone health
- Can help reduce frequency/intensity of hot flashes in some women
- Supports blood sugar stability (super helpful in meno!)
- Helps with constipation without the laxative effect of magnesium citrate
✅ Recommended Dosage for Women in Perimenopause/Menopause
For most women:
300–400 mg per day
of
elemental magnesium
This is considered safe, effective, and appropriate for midlife women unless your doctor says otherwise.
🍬 About Gummies
- Gummies often contain 10+ grams of carbs/sugar
- Usually under-dosed (you’d need multiple to reach 300 mg)
- Fine to start low with 100–200 mg and work up
- Switching to pills or capsules is cleaner + less sugar
💊 Ideal Routine
- Start with 100–150 mg at night
- After 3–5 days, increase to 300 mg nightly
- If already taking 300 mg and still anxious / sleeping poorly, some women split their dose: 150 mg afternoon 150 mg before bed
600 mg is the high end, usually only used short-term and supervised.
⚠️ When to double-check with your doctor
- Kidney disease
- Slow heart rate
- Taking diuretics or BP meds
- Taking SSRIs or SNRI antidepressants
- Known electrolyte issues
The dosage for 1 gummy is 300mg .
