     Topic: Magnesium,zinc & B6     Posted: 02 April 2009 at 9:15pm |

   Ive started taking a combo tablet of the above and have been feeling very lethargic during the day.  I talked to the health food shop and they said that i should be taking this at  night as the magnesium is a muscle relaxant.  So thought i would share this info to anyone else out there about to take this also, so make sure you take with your evening meal

   Well, I can say that it has definitely helped with my insomnia!  I have been taking it an hour before bedtime and am suprised how well it works, no more eyes wide open in the dark lol.

   Thats sounds good Louise, might give it a go need a pick me up as feeling too tired during the day. I went to the chemist & bought some B6 the Blackmores one had the highest dose of 240mg I am hoping it lengthens my LP, so well will see this month.

   oh, I've got some of these at home, maybe I'll start taking them at night as well.  Any bit of assistance will be welcome!
