Nervous system and sleep
How to choose
- Magnesium: check the label for the amount of magnesium itself in the daily dose (mg), not the weight of the whole compound — citrate, bisglycinate and oxide give different figures.
- Melatonin: the dose in mg and when to take it are stated on the label; sprays and tablets differ in how easy they are to dose.
- Prepare herbal teas and blends as directed on the pack and follow the manufacturer's warnings.
- If you take several supplements with magnesium or B vitamins, add up the doses.

Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. A food supplement is not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication or under medical supervision, consult a doctor before use.
