Magnesium?

20 Replies

I've been looking online about this shaking and I've read that magnesium helps with muscle spams and shaking also anxiety! Has anyone tried this? X

Magnesium also helps with leg cramps.

You should give it a try.

Yes it helps with nerves and muscles. I have one called Slow-Mag. Its a slow steady release. Not that strong either. Too much will give you diarrhea! Check out the one I have.

Dear Jess 1989. This was really interesting. I shake (specially hands and mouth), but sometimes people notice my whole body trembling and they get scared. I sometimes wake myself up with huge muscle jerks and find my legs bruised where I kick out. I sometimes find it funny but mostly woooaah what is going on. It isn't attractive when your shins are covered in black and blue. Actually its a bit embarrassing. I will look at magnesium as long as it doesn't involve bananas.
