Improving Sleep Health Through Magnesium Supplementation
Sponsor: Northumbria University
Summary
Research has shown that there is a close relationship between sleep and diet. It has been shown that a vitamin and mineral rich diet is related to better sleep. This relationship can go both ways as poor sleep can also impact on your diet. Specifically, low magnesium levels have been associated with insomnia and adding magnesium to the diet of an individual with insomnia can help with their symptoms. Whilst this is known about insomnia, far less is known about the impact of magnesium on general sleep health. In other words, people who don't have a sleep disorder but could be sleeping better generally. The aim of this study is to determine whether supplementing with Magnesium in those people who are deficient over a period of 8 weeks improves overall sleep health.
